Hi All, I have a PM wherein im calling few processes- async and sync. The structure is -> Start node-> script task-> sync subprocess -> gateway-> sync subprocess -> start process->  start process-> scrip task and so on.. Every day few instances get error on the first start process(i made it bold ) with the following error Error when parsing process details or variables Also when we restart the node, the process runs without error. We have trd if the variable that we send is not in proper format . We are passing only one cdt pv to this start process. I am not understanding why the error would come, is it coz of the engines beign busy? but why alwasy on the same node? If anyone could make this all sence or give a solution, it will be time saving for us. Thanks in advance.

Hello Techies, I am looking for ways to extract a list of environment constants in my application. I know I can export entire list of constants and look up the properties file but is there a better way within designer to achieve it?Thank you!

Can we Trigger a Process Model from a Process Model  by running a!startProcess() from script task ? 

Requirement: Implement Single Sign-On (SSO) for your application. Updated the Service Provider Signing Certificate in Appian. Generated a metadata file and sent it to clients. Configured the file and received an "Identity Provider Metadata" file, which was then configured in Appian under "Identity Provider Information". Questions: If I change the certificate that is already configured on the Appian side, will SSO authentication fail due to a metadata mismatch? If it should fail due to a certificate change, why is it that in my case, when I change the certificates on the Appian side, the SSO works fine, and I am able to sign in to the website? The certificates are generated by the IIS manager on my system.

I'd like to implement SSO using https://keystonelogin.external.beta.pa.gov/swagger/ui/index#/.I've implemented this in two different LowCode/NoCode environments and all that I need to get working is: /api/v1/session/login /api/v1/app/user/data Both RESTFul API endpoints. Can you point me to any tutorials or guides on how I can set this up? Thanks, pete  

Hi, is it possible to invoke multiple a!startProcess inside appian web api?

We have a process model and it contains some scripts and another subprocess between two user tasks all nodes are connected by activity chaining, User sometimes receives "Action is completed" although there is activity chaining and by analysis this happens when the subprocess takes time so by search we found that we have to increase conf.suite.REQUEST_TIMEOUT_IN_SEC in custom.properties so we increased it to 180 but still this behavior happens and the subprocess takes 28 seconds

I exported the whole app package from lower env and deployed it to higher env, but some groups were missing after deployment. I'm sure they were in lower env, and they are no new groups,  they were in higher env before deployment. I saw conflict about the missing group, could this be the cause? But if these groups fail to import their old version should be kept right? How come I couldn't even found them in objects.

Hi experts, We have been able to establish connectivity to a HANA database successfully. The HANA stored procedure is expecting the values to be passed, enclosed in single quotes - 'Value1, Value2'. A query like below works perfectly fine. SELECT * from DB_SCHEMA.VIEW_NAME('placeholder' = ('$$list_name$$','Value1,Value2')) However when I try to pass this list as a parameter, I am getting an error. SELECT * from DB_SCHEMA.VIEW_NAME('placeholder' = ('$$list_name$$',{parameter})) Has anybody integrated with HANA DB before and has a reference to how we can achieve this by passing dynamic values via parameter with the main criteria being include parameter values in single quotes?

We are trying to set up a Single sign-on for one of our environments and generated a self-signed certificate for SAML authentication using Apache OpenSSL. Now can we use the same generated certificate for one of our higher environments as well?Looking forward to the response. Thanks

I have a use case where I need to apply visibility rules to requests generated in an application. In other words, if I create a request, only users from my department should be able to see it. In the client’s system, there are many departments, and creating a group for each of them doesn’t seem like the right solution. Additionally, new departments may emerge in the future. As a solution, I’m considering detecting the department code of the user initiating the process (this value is stored in the custom field ‘customfield1’). Then, when applying visibility rules to requests, I would calculate all users who have the same value in ‘customfield1’ as the user who created the request. My question is: Is there any issue in Appian if I assign tasks to an array of users instead of Appian groups?
