Hi Team, I have observed a strange case happening, For one of my account "XYZ", I'm unable to receive emails using "Send Email Smart service" from past two days. My hunch is, in the system logs, I see it as locked. Is this issue due to that or what could be case, here? Workflow: I have process model, that sends an email. That has input of a group as constant with the users included.

How to query table count from oracle DB and display the result in appian screen? I have used the below "Query Database" smart service to fetch the number of table count from DB. But I receive the below error: "You should enter only a single query in a row." My query - SELECT COUNT(1) AS NO_OF_TABLE_CNT FROM USER_TABLES;   Please help me to get the table count. Is there any other option available apart from using this Query Database smart service?

Hi all, I have an issue concerning Add Documents to Zip plugin.  More specifically with the customer being able to unzip the files with the default WinZip utility.  Currently the zip files are empty and they are forced to use 7-Zip.  Since it's not really a best practice to ask the customer to download a third party software to unzip the files, I would like to try and troubleshoot the issue.  Side note** All company internal members have no issues unzipping the files using WinZip.  This is purely an external issue.

Hi Experts, I am using "Authorization Code Grant" for Docusign integration.I have to call this integration on my process model and run this process model as scheduler on every hour to checking token status.I have  set assignee of this integration node "Run as whoever started the process".The Problem I am facing is that, every time I am getting "[title=Missing Credentials, message=No OAuth Access Token found for current user, detail=]" API response. when I am manually running this integration, it is working fine. As per my understanding it is because, when the process is running according scheduler  it is not able to find valid assignee and the integration is returning false response every time ,even if the token is not expired. Please help me on this.

Hi all,  We need to configure SAML as Identity Providers for SSO in Appian. We have been looking into the configuration and we have some doubts about the Signature Hashing Algorithm. As far as we have seen there are only two available algorithms: SHA-1 and SHA-256,but after reviewing this topic with our client and people from Azure AD they told as the algorithm they use is AES. Does anyone know if it's possible to use different algorithms for this or are those two the only possibilities? Has someone had this same issue before and was able to solve it? Thanks in advance

Good morning, I am experiencing issues accessing the admin console via the Community Edition of Appian. Despite being the only user, it appears that I do not have the necessary permissions to access it. This also prevents me from accessing the cloud database. What steps should I follow to resolve this issue? I am unable to modify my credentials on my own. I would appreciate any help on this matter. Thanks in advance to anyone who will respond.

Hi All, I have configured appian HA environment and able to successfully start all Appian engines and servers for the appian version 23.3. When I tried to log in using valid credentials page is refreshing and going back to same login page. Any suggestions in resolving this issue? Thanks, Veera

Hi, I have a doubt. I need to send a otp once the user clicks on the action "create record". While creating they have  a field OTP, where they enters the value that is received via email. I have used the rand function to generate the random number, I added this logic in a script task and then had the send email node. My question here is: 1. I am receiving the mail for otp after clicking on submit or cancel, but in my PM i have the email node right after the start node. I wanted to receive the otp once after opening the form itself 2. I store the value for the otp in the Process variable in PM. How can we do the comparison if the user enters the code in the form? Can someone please help here Thanks in advance.

Hi,        My process model has an integration call which has a timeout of 1 sec. In My process model , I am not handling the timeout . so what will happen if the timeout happens . Will the flow goes to the next node after the integration node ?  Also , is there any easy way to simulate timeout from a REST POST API call ? I have set the time for timeout to minimum (1 sec). still the call is succeeding . is there any way to achieve this from Appian objects or the network. I have no access to the rest api code. Regards, Mike

What will happen if we link two interfaces both have MNI enables using activity chaining. Will it work , if not what will happen in that case?

Hi All I want to add accents characters in the text field . Has anyone experienced issues with names having accents and if so, how did you resolve it? Thanks 

Hello Everyone, We have a use case where in we need to nightly refresh our look up tables( truncate existing data and update if integgration is success)on daily basis. As our application is record centric I am planning to use service backed record to external system.However I have below questions to clarify before I proceed. Do we need to hit the API twice? once to check if it’s success and second to populate the record? To truncate the existing data I am thinking to use delete records. Also, Unsure how serviceback record handles if integration fails. Please let me if this approach is suggestable for the above use case. Thanks in advance.

I am working on a scheduler which will run at4:00 AM daily. but when i deploy the process model object to test enviroment it ran automatically first and later on schduled time. So how can we manage this scenario so that the scheduler will run only at the scheduled time. Many thanks in advance.
