Hello Appian expert, We want to send emails from Appian using Outlook 365 account. For that, we tried using MS Outlook 365 connected system and followed all the account set-up steps. but the connected system is not able to validate credentials and returns 'Invalid Access' Steps:  Login to Azure AD, go to ‘App Registration’ and create a new app. Use the generated Client ID and Tenant ID from that app into the connected system Generate client secret from ‘Certificates and Secrets’ and pass it as input In the ‘API permissions’ option, click on ‘Add permission’ > select the Microsoft Graph API > Add (Application) Mail.Send permission Use emailaddress@domain.onmicrosoft.com email id To confirm, we are able to use the same account using MS Graph Explorer and successfully send emails. My questions: 1. Have you used this connected system and if so, please share any of the steps we missed? 2. What are the alternative

Hi Champ, I have a OR gateway where we have two conditions . Although both are true, the token is only follwing one path and skipping the other. If I tried to exceute again a script task just before the OR gateway, that time it is follwing the other path. Not sure why this kind of behaviour.

Hi Folks. Can anyone suggest how to add record action only as a page on site navigation bar? I believe it's only has a option to add record list. Please suggest. Note: I am asking this because there is need to show popup on click of button or navigation menu. Thanks 

I am working in my record type display interface.  One of the fields in our data contains an email address with the name of the person in this format: Bilbo Baggins <Bilbo.Baggins@TheShire.org> I need to extract the string between the < > and display that string as a mailto link in my results.  How do I write this, or if it's not possible to write this, how can this be achieved based on the data as it is? Many thanks in advance - 

Hello! We are using the submenus of the Appian sites (which only accept interfaces). We have a logic where, depending on the role of the user that accesses, when clicking on the submenu of the site you will see one thing or another: Role A: You will see a list of customers (through a record). So far so good, we can put the record list in an interface Role B: You will see directly the detail/view of your customer. Having only one customer associated, we want to avoid the double step of seeing the list of customers (where only yours appears) and click this customer. What we want is that when you click on the submenu, it takes you directly to the detail of this customer (similar to the functionality of a!recordLink). Do you know if there is any option to do this? Thanks!

Hi,  How can i configure this can anyone suggest ?

Dear Appian Community, I hope this message finds you well. We are currently facing an issue during the initialization of our context in our Appian environment, and we would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving it. The error message we are encountering is as follows: org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'smartServiceBridgeRegistry' defined in class path resource [com/appiancorp/expr/server/reaction/ReactionSpringConfig.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'smartServiceBridgeRegistry' parameter 1; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'reactionFunctionProvider' defined in class path resource [com/appiancorp/expr/server/reaction/ReactionSpringConfig.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'reactionFunctionProvider' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.fa

In our development environment, we have the process-analytics and process-execution engines running on one server, and the remaining engines running on another server (distributed mode). We would like to reconfigure this installation to have just one server running everything. Unfortunately, the server we want to remove is the server that runs the process-analytics and process-execution engines. Appian documentation says the following:"Appian does NOT support the removal of execution engines." My plan was to add the process-analytics and process-execution engines to the server we want to keep, start everything up so data replicates, take it all down again, and remove the engines from the second server. Would this be considered "removal of execution engines"? Or does that statement just mean we cannot completely remove an engine from all servers? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you for your continued support.I would like to hear your opinions on obtaining system logs. Currently, we manually save some logs for maintenance operations. However, the number of logs is increasing day by day (especially integration logs), and we are concerned that manual management will become unmanageable. I would like to know the following three points. 1: Do you store Appian system logs separately? 2: Do you know how to automate the process of manually saving log files one by one? 3: Are there any other good ways? I apologize for bothering you during your busy schedule, but I would like to borrow your wisdom. Thank you in advance.... いつもお世話になっております。システムログの取得について、皆さんのご意見をお聞きしたく存じます。 現在、保守運用のためにいくつかのログを手動で保存しています。しかし件数は日に日に増加しており（特にintegrationのログが多いです）、手動管理では手に負えなくなることを懸念しております。 知りたいことは次の3点です。1：皆さんはAppianのシステムログを別途保管していますか？2：ログファイルを手動で1つずつ保存することを、自動化する方法をご存じですか？3：他にいい方法はありますか？ ご多用のところ恐れ入りますが、先人の知恵をお借りしたく存じます。よろしくお願いいたします。

Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with Read MSG plug-in that the generated output .html document is coming out blank. The .msg file itself does have content in it though. I config the Read MSG node as guided in the plug-in documentation. The generated document (output html file) was stored in a process variable. When I download that html file from Appian folder and open it, it is a blank file.  This is the original msg file:  And below is the generated html: I'm looking for a solution to solve this issue or a workaround way for me to convert .msg to html. Does anyone have any idea?  Thank you

I have a question about the system logs.Is there a log that shows the process model started by the user and the processing time of each node in that process model? Thanks

I have a requirement to pull parent record and its related records. these are 1-many relationships, and 1 related record contains more than 10 rows. I cannot user a!queryrecordbyidentifier as i dont have identifier passed. this is based on date filters.  Any suggestion on how to pull more than 10 relatedrecords under the queryrecordtype() function. I am able to get all relatedrecords without using RelatedRecordData but i am not able to apply additional filters on relatedrecord data. Ex: I want request 1 data, and all the statuses of request 1 from status table which is in 1-many relationship. I only want active statuses that are more than 10 rows, for that i tried to use RelatedRecordData but limit is 10 though it only returned active ones as needed.a!queryRecordType( recordType:recordtype!parent, fields: {}, filters: { a!queryFilter( field: createdon, operator: "between", value: { startdate,enddate }, applyWhen: and(

I am facing issue in identifying the objects using Selenium/Java on sample Appian application available at Community edition site as below: Similar issue I am facing in working project screens for one of the clients. 1. Multiple - Dropdown: The dropdown values are not defined as Static. The <div> id has changed whenever page is getting reloaded. 2. Date Selector: The <div> id has changed whenever page is getting reloaded. sendKeys () method is also not working since the field was changing dynamically.

Hi All, I have a situation where I work on cases based on process model approach i.e. Assignment in PM itself. Each case goes through 3 levels of approval from associate to manager, to senior manager. I have a master process which triggers when a associate "Smith" starts working on a case, this particular associate will be the assignee for the associate task. Once Smith submits this case it goes to all the managers queue and once they accept the task and submit the case it goes to senior managers queue and once they accept the task and submit the case it comes back to Smith who will close the case finally. Now let's say we want to change the associate Smith to Alex (Not through reassignment but through another process model). We have to check active process instance for this case and get the process variable that holds the associate name and change that process variable value to Alex. Is it even possible to modify the process variable of a active process instance through

Hello! My team and I are attempting to create a demo of a project for potential customers. The intended application would be able to take images from a mobile device, save these photos as documents in Appian, and have workflows in which those photos would be viewed/displayed in high enough resolution for end users to make determinations based on said photos. In your experience, what are the best plugins to achieve this functionality? I have found an image capture plug-in component from Vuram on the appmarket, but from the comments it seems that the photos are binned down to a very low resolution, which may disrupt our workflow tasks.  What is the gold standard for image capture and viewing in Appian? Thank you so much in advance for your help!

I am using AWS Cognito to onboard Pool users with Appian via OIDC. I would like to know if I can use the Appian Login page instead of the one provided by Cognito. Cognito only supports English, so I wouldn't want to use the screen provided by Cognito.

How to check whether Process model archived or Unarchived.

Hi,  our client requires plugins to be installed on Appian to pass a SAST static code scan before they can be used. Does anyone know if Appian scans plugins during deployment and in that case how is this done? Is there a way to perform a SAST scan on the plugins after deployment? Thanks in advance

Hi community members, So the requirement is: When business user using the site, one of the interface has the two column layout, left sub-interface showing the uploaded document, right sub-interface is some summary info. The user want to able to adjust the size for the two sub interfaces. For example, there should a line between left sub-interface and right sub-interface, when user drag the line to right, the left sub-interface occupies more area of the screen and the right sub-interface occupies less area. I have did some research and it seems Appian doesn't support this feature. Please give some advice if I missed some thing. Thanks.
