What is the maximum size limit of process variable in Appian?

How to create a code for Fibonacci series in Appian

Hi Team, I recently configured SAML in Appian, and when some existing users attempted to access Appian via SSO, they encountered a 401 error. I had already added these users to the authentication group, and ensured that the Identity Provider (IdP) username was in lowercase, with both the username and email matching. However, the 401 error still occurred. As a temporary workaround, I changed the username, and when the old user tried to access Appian through SSO, Appian treated the user as new. As a result, the user was recreated because we have the "Create new users upon sign-in" option enabled in the SAML settings. Since we cannot change the username for all users, I am looking for a solution to resolve this issue without modifying usernames. Any help with addressing this problem would be appreciated.  

Our tenant is currently on Appian cloud version 24.2 and experiencing a real-time aggregation error on a custom record field. When editing the custom record field in the record type view, clicking the 'TEST' button displays the following error: ava.lang.RuntimeException: tvJavaBridge is null We have tried removing the relationship and re-adding to no avail. Also, testing the rule in an expression also yields the same result (see screenshots below). Any ideas of what we could try to alleviate the issue?

Hello, I have a doubt and I am unsure how to proceed.   I have an interface where the individual record rows are displayed in a read only grid where I am using the FK of another table to filter and display only those audits for a specific record. The requirement is to display a different background color in the read only grid of the values in the row based on previous entries. For example   FKID Name Temp Approved 1 Tim 20 No 1 Timmy 22 Pending 1 Timmy 22 Yes 1 Timmy 23 Retired Timmy, 22 and pending are highlighted in the second row because they differ from the first entry. Yes is highlighted in the third entry due to being different than pending. 23 and retired are highlighted because they differ from previous also. I have a record query as below and I feel I need to compare the fv!row[currentValue] against the indexed local data somehow but I am not sure how to proceed. a!localVariables( local!data: a!queryRecordType( recordType: 'ADtable',

Dear all, I have a question about a part of my interface. I use a read-only grid component. Scrollbars appear depending on the screen size. I want to implement it so that when moving the horizontal scrollbar, the header rows stay fixed and only the non-header areas move. I haven't found a setting and would appreciate your help if you know how or if it's possible. Thanks in advance. 親愛なる皆様へ。インターフェースの一部について質問させてください。 読み取り専用グリッドコンポーネントを使用します。画面サイズに応じてスクロールバーが表示されます。水平のスクロールバーを動かすとき、ヘッダー行を固定した状態で、ヘッダー以外の場所のみ移動するように実装したいです。 設定を見つけられておらず、もし方法が、あるいは実現の可否についてご存じであれば、お力をお借りしたいのです。よろしくお願いいたします。

Hi everyone, I'm encountering an issue when performing searches on a RecordType through an interface. The searches work perfectly for all columns except for one that is of type date. I’ve tried changing the format to match the database format (yyyy-MM-dd), but even then, the search returns no results when I query by that date column. Does anyone know why this might be happening or how I can resolve this issue? Thanks in advance! a!gridColumn( label: "Fecha", sortField: 'recordType!{...}.....fields.{....}fecha', value: text(fv!row['recordType!{....}....fields.{....}fecha'], "yyyy-dd-MM"), align: "START", width: "AUTO" ),

Hello I'm trying to set up the four record types for the Interfaces 103: Build Complex Interfaces by Adapting Patterns course, but it seems the PF_ACCOUNT, PF_ACCOUNT_TYPE, PF_TRANSACTION, and PF_GOAL database tables are missing from my Appian community environment.  Does anyone have a way to manually add the tables or reset my site without losing all my work?  Or is there some requirement I'm not aware of?

Hi Champs, I have a grid where I have a column in which I am showing a recordaction component based on some conditions.

Hello all, the subject may not be a good summary of what I'm looking for, so here's a bit more context for this posting. I need to create a set of user interfaces, each of which serves a specific purpose in an application. But a lot of these UIs share similar functionalities (e.g., Approve/Reject decision, Doc upload, Confirmation, etc.) that I'd like to turn into reusable "parts" that will become part of a parent "wrapper" interface object. So, the idea is to always use the parent UI object--this holds common elements such as a page title--and pass in an ID as a rule input, which will be used to determine which of the reusable parts will be displayed within the parent UI. During my online search on this topic, I found this Community posting and this blog entry by [mention:a11f77a729fb4db2af76b09948583328:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] to be somewhat relevant to my needs. But it seems that Appian at some point s

Is there an option in Appian that may allow me to mass delete rule inputs placed in my interface in Appian? There seems to be no option but having to resort to deleting each rule input one by one which is a little time consuming. 

Can we add new columns to User Uploaded excel with columns and data already in it?  Note: The added column's data is not unique for all the records

We have a handful of process instances not archiving: 1. Process model's data management is set to archiving 3 days after completion or cancellation, and there are no previous versions of the process model object 2. Instance shows up in monitoring with a green checkmark and all nodes in Process Node under Process Details are completed 3. Nothing shows up under Current Tasks, Quick Tasks, or Sub-Process 4. It looks like the process was manually restarted (start node in the middle of process history) - this restart did successfully run until End Node. End Node also finished at the same time as another node.  Was just curious if this was expected behavior or something that needs more investigation.
