Hello Appian,   We have a new member and have created a new account for 'Appian community site'. (https://community.appian.com/ ) However, the 'Appian community site' cannot be logged in with the newly created account. We checked that the account was created by trying the step of creating the same new account again. But it showed that the account already exists. Also tried requesting "forgot password", but didn't get any email for password changing. Lastly, also tried sending mail to community<community@appian.com> but didn't get any response yet. Please help how to solve the problem with login to 'Appian community site' with the new account. Thank you

I know this is a very basic concept and I predominantly understand the purpose of a Primary Key and a Foreign Key. But as I've been learning the concept of a Unique Key came up and I was unable to find a resource that gives me a clear understanding of the purpose of a Unique Key. I would love it if someone co explain the difference while comparing it to Primary and Foreign Keys potentially with some examples if applicable.

We are trying to utilize the Pinecone integration from Appian, but running into a problem where it requires environment to be defined. We have reached out to Pinecone who has informed us that they have a new SDK where environment is not required and that the Appian call needs to be updated. Are there plans to updates this integration point? Can you give some guidance, we have a project that requires this integration. Here's the information from Pinecone: "Pinecone no longer requires the environment to be part of the connection. Our latest SDKs all connect to a global control plane instead. This means a single project can now host indexes in different environments/cloud regions, and you only need to set the API key to use your indexes." Can somebody help us with the update to the pinecone plugin

Hi, We are looking into creating a custom Smart service plug-in to serialize/deserialize using the AVRO Java libraries. We have seen that the code can be sent through the AppMarket Submissions Site for approval, but in the documentation page that details how to build this type of plug-ins it says the for Appian cloud customers it has to be tested in a licensed local installation of Appian. "In order to individually build a custom smart service plug-in, a licensed local installation of Appian is required. Appian Cloud customers who have a local installation must develop and test the custom smart service locally and coordinate with Appian Technical Support to deploy it on their site." If anyone know the steps that we must follow to get a custom Smart service plug-in reviewed and approved, or if anyone has already done this before and can tell us about the process it would be really helpful. Thanks in advance

With the pinecone integration that is available with Appian it requires an environment to be set and pinecone no longer provides environments. Pinecone no longer requires the environment to be part of the connection. Our latest SDKs all connect to a global control plane instead. This means a single project can now host indexes in different environments/cloud regions, and you only need to set the API key to use your indexes. But when we try to connect environment is required and throws an error.

Hello,  I'm trying to use a dynamic field to allow users to add more text inputs for email addresses.

Hi, We are getting data from External services in a file format. So is it possible to start the process model once I get a file from external source ?

Hi All,In some processes, we can see actor name coming as administrator and for some we can see its coming as the person who started the process. This is occuring for subprocesses. Any reason for this difference in behaviour? Where does this originate from??

Is there an advantage one over the other? In my current project, using the index with the dot is questioned as bad practice, requesting to always use the index() function, my question is, is this really necessary? what are the reasons? I understand that sometimes it is good to control the default value and set a null.

Hello everyone, we're facing a problem with the dropdown component used from Appian mobile, since it doesn't close the suggestions after pressing on the desired value but it requires the user to click back button. This UX is not very comfortable or intuitive for the end users. Any suggestions for alternative ways for handling such a use case (other than using a picker). I am aware of this older thread with the same problem: Appian Community  Thanks in advance.

My application is specifically for a local where the decimal symbol used is comma " , " and not a period " . ". So, the decimals will be inputted by the portal users as `5,55` instead of `5.55` So my current code is the following: a!textField( label: "The amount of money for payment", labelPosition: "ABOVE", instructions: "", helpTooltip: "The amount of money for payment", value: if( local!variant_value_for_payment > 0, a!currency( isoCode: "BRL", value: local!variant_value_for_payment, format: "LOCALE" ), null ), saveInto: { a!save( local!variant_value_for_payment, todecimal(save!value) ) }, refreshAfter: "KEYPRESS" ), I've read the a!currency docs and the main question for the best solution for me should be: → How may I be able to forcely make the system reads "100.50" and recognizes as " 100.00" and keeps that format? Thanks from now on

I am following the ESG Portal Application Tutorial (https://academy.appian.com/#/online-course-player/07769a88-b0b5-44ee-a08b-8f2200355f87) However, during Step 2 when I create a Portal and go on to create a Service account, I am simply unable to access the field. Furthermore, I cannot publish the portal that I created. Why is this? I believe it might be because I am a basic user instead of system admin but I do not know how to switch and give myself the correct permissions. Please help!
