Hi Champ, I have a use case where I am getting the constnat name (in text) and I have to pass that in Update constant service. But here the issue here is I am unable to pass the constnat name dynamically there. As the name is text type and it's expecting something of constant type. I don't see any option to cast it too. Only way possible here is selecting consttant from the menu ; but I can't do that as it's dynamic in my case.

Using v21.3. I'm fairly new to Appian. While tailing the tomcat log, I see when the ObjectSynchronizer runs, I get the following: ... WARN com.appiancorp.common.ObjectSynchronizer - 1 services were missing users.... ERROR org.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter - ORA-00001: unique constraint ([constraint name]) violated I am attempting to see the actual sql causing the issue. I modified appian_log4j.properties as follows:from "log4j.logger.com.appiancorp.common.ObjectSynchronizer=INFO"to "log4j.logger.com.appiancorp.common.ObjectSynchronizer=DEBUG" However, the tomcat log file does not produce any additional entries. Is a restart required? Would the debug entries be written to a different file? Is there another logger that needs to be modified? Any help would be appreciated.

When updating a record, using the update related action, the process gets stuck on the write records smart service. I've checked the permissions, and they should be fine. It's worked thus far, however now we can't update anything. The process is not throwing and errors, nor is it providing any useful information. Additionally, this is the error that the user gets:

I have a relatively simple Excel document that I want to generate using the Export Data Store Entity to Excel process node. I want a Title cell at the top left, then column headers in the second row, and then the rows of data below. I have my custom cell positions set as: {"A1, A2", "B2", "C2", "D2", "E2", "F2", "G2"}, And my custom cell values set as: { concat("Person Information for Transfer #", pv!transferId), "First Name", "Middle Name", "Last Name", "ID Number", "Date of Birth", "# of High Value Bags", "# of Personal Bags"} Both arrays have a length of 8, but I'm receiving the error, "The custom cell positions and custom cell values arrays must have the same length." What's causing this error?

In the documentation for the Send E-mail smart service, it says to put a semicolon between email recipients. This is the expression I am using. = toemailaddress( pv!spkrRecord['recordType!PMSO Speaker.fields.speakerEmail'] ); toemailaddress( pv!parishProfileRecord['recordType!PMSO Parish Profile.fields.parishContactEmail'] )  However, the first recipient receives the email, but the second one does not.  What am I doing wrong here?

Hi All, I'm encountering an issue with syncing data in Service based records. Here are the details: - I have scheduled a full sync, but it only occurs once per day. - The API data can update multiple times throughout the day. so I set up the sync expression rule for multiple daily syncs. However, I've observed the following issue when running the "Sync Records" smart service: - If the API returns fewer rows than the current record, the old data is not being removed after the sync. For example : currently record has 40 rows and now the API returns 15 and I see all 40. Has anyone faced a similar issue or have any suggestions on how to resolve this?

I am trying to create a record based dropdown component with a filter (shown below), where the filter value changes based on a different dropdown component. local!msSealType is the variable updated by the other dropdown component (via an a!save in that component) and can be either "S" or "D". The sealType field in the record type I'm using is either "D" or "B". I am trying to filter the options in this dropdown component based on the selection of the other dropdown, but it seems like the filter value is not updating. No matter how local!msSealType changes the dropdown values never change. I have confirmed that both data types are text. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
