I'm getting this error while updating a form. During creating a form, all goes well but as soon as I try to update the form with existing data (I'm updating a dropdown with a new value and this is where it's erroring out) The dropdown field is being called from another interface, everything in that interface works except for that dropdown. Can anyone please tell me what is going on with the saves? I'm including a screenshot of the dropdown field that's erroring out. Any help is appreciated! Once a new value is selected, the below error occurs Here is the dropdown field for reference. If more screenshots/explanation is needed, please let me know and I'll be happy to provide more!

I have been asked to check feasibility to implement below requirement, User will upload an excel file which can have records up to 2000. We have to read the parse the file and create separate pdf file for each of the record. The template of pdf file will be same for all. In short we have to generate 2000 files in one go. Once files are generated we need to display status of each record to user that file has been generated successfully or not. I want to confirm if this is possible to generate 2000 files quickly. If yes then how to do it without getting performance issues.

HI team, I want to integrate any AI tool like Chat GPT and learn something new by doing some usecase. since it needs the Licensed version , is there any possible way i can integrate any AI tool with appian for free to learn.

I have Data from an Integration call that is to be displayed in a ReadOnly Grid in descending order for ease of reference. The Local Variable is structured as follows: local!Data.result.body.contactData contactData is an array containing ContactNumbers and each contact number's count of Sources i.e. where the number came from/ number of data providers that provided the number. I want to sort the ReadOnly Grid such that the Initial Sort is based on Count of Sources in descending order i.e. The Contact number with the highest count of sources should be at the top. The Sort info below logic does not work for me a!sortInfo( field: local!Data.result.body.contactData.numberOfSources) Order Descending Any ideas on the correct approach? Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi All, Is there a way to find user logged location in appian?

Hi All,Here is the scenario, I have two databases called AppianHLS and AppianTLS on my MSSQL server respective to two different applications HLS and TLS in Appian. Now, the AppianHLS DB has 3 tables, let's say HLS_table1, HLS_table2, HLS_table3 and a view called HLS_view1 which joins all the 3 tables on some conditions. Also I have a table called TLS_Table1.My requirement is to create a view TLS_view1 in AppianTLS DB which gets all the columns from the view - HLS_view1 and joins with the table - TLS_table1. I have created the view TLS, and the view is working completely fine and showing the data in the database end. Now in the appian application TLS, I have created a cdt for the view and then a record type for this entity. While adding the data source, I have selected the entity and in the data preview, I couldn't see the data and it  is showing that - "Preview currently unavailable due to an error on the source" and when I checked the logs it is showing the exce

Hi Team,  I have a used case, where an employee goes to a specific option on a website and clicks on the upload button, as we know once the upload is clicked file explorer pops up, and then he chooses a document > and clicks on submit. I am trying to automate this so that robot can pick documents one by one and submits them. I know clicking buttons is easy with interactive elements of the browser but once the Upload button is clicked the file explorer is opened, and I am not finding any way that robot can interact with File Explorer and selects that document from some location. I looked at the documentation of File system action https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.3/rpa-8.0/modules/file-management-module.html and I cannot find anything relevant so please help. Best, Khaiser

Hey appian community, In the highlighted portion of the graph below, I'm trying to figure out how to have the axis formatted for large numbers (Ex. 1000 should be 1,000). The measures used in the charts are already formatted correctly with the appropriate formatValue: Dollar, Integer, etc. The tooltips also display the formatted value correctly. My only issue is the axis of my charts. Please help me out, and thanks for your time. 

Hi All, I have setup the integration object using https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/sharepoint-connected-system.html All the methods I can use and its all working fine but I have a requirement that I must be able to move a document from one folder to another or delete a specific document from one folder.  I got one method to use Execute Write Request but can someone help in what data we need to pass in that to fulfil the requirement? Thanks 

I have a robotic task which is connected to a process model, which worked well yesterday. But upon testing it again (without changing anything) and opening the executed robotic task in the Operational Console, I noticed that the variables of this RT is not visible after the run. Also the said RT took lots of time to complete compared to when testing it directly at the RT.  I have tried deleting bots and created new ones, plus I also tried it in different host machines but the result is still the same.  Screenshots of my executions: #1 - Testing directly from the Robotic Task (variables visible at the side, with values updating):  #2 - Robotic task after Testing from Process Model (variables not visible at the side anymore)  #3 - jidoka-client logs throwing ABORT EXECUTION SIGNAL RECEIVED FROM SERVER message

Hello, We would like to implement Appian at a Private Equity company to run operations. We are not sure if we should use Power Apps instead. What are arguments against power Apps? Thanks

This question is in regard to loops in process models as it relates to Appian Health Checks. Recently I have taken on a more administrative role and one of my regular tasks is to review monthly health checks across our environments. During these reviews I see a lot of items related to looping processes. I understand large looped processes may not be performant. The thing that drew my attention and for which I have not found a relevant explanation in documentation is the health check description (see below) the highlighted section says that 10 or more nodes is considered high (makes sense) but 2 or more is medium. That seems like a very low threshold. 1 process flow(s) contain unattended loops with 10 or more nodes (High) and 19 process flow(s) contain unattended loops with 2 or more nodes (Medium). Looping is typically an indication of using processes to perform extract-transform-load (ETL) type operations. It is recommended to use specific ETL tools (such as a database) to implement c

Good Morning everyone, I would like to ask can we create session based application in Appian ?? Let me explain my use case I want to create an application similar to a small game where the one user can send a specific link along with unique code and the person with the link & unique code should join the particular instance (page) of that game. This application is mainly implemented on Portals. For further discussion, contact me at telegram @Kuzuri_03

Hi Team, Is there a way I can take RPA saved credentials like just a password and store it in a variable so that I can use this value later on as a parameter to a different component. Thanks, Khaiser

I have the requirement to find the difference between two record values of a record type like we do in case of cdts using cdtdifference(). I have the previous value of record type and then new value, I need to populate Audit table using these difference values. Any function like cdtdifference() or any workaround to do this?

I have a parent process (lets say process A) and a subprocess called in it (lets say process B). The subprocess node assignment in process A is set as 'Run as whoever started the process' but in process B there is a lane assignment 'Run as whoever designed this process model'. In this case, on whose security will the process B will run? Similarly there can be a total of 4 cases mentioned below and I am confused that on whose security the process B would run? 1. The subprocess node assignment in process A is set as 'Run as whoever started the process' and in process B there is a lane assignment 'Run as whoever designed this process model'. 2. The subprocess node assignment in process A is set as 'Run as whoever started the process' and in process B there is a lane assignment 'Run as whoever started the process'. 3. The subprocess node assignment in process A is set as 'Run as whoever designed this process model'&nbsp

We have a use case for a mobile offline application. I'm trying to build a simple app to test the functionality. Are there any other pointers beyond the design guidance in the documentation?  An example of the application process flow is as follows: Load application and any data that will be needed for the entry form Go offline Invoke form to enter data with any ref data populated from Step 1 Enter data Submit the form to save changes locally Go online and see the newly created record The documentation talks about offline actions and offline tasks. I would like to implement offline actions but I'm not seeing much detail on configuring them.  What would be really useful is a working example with a similar flow to what I've described. In that case, I could dissect to fit my use case. Also useful would be more pointed steps for implementing this functionality. I'm aware of the following: Enable offline mobile in Admin Console Enable interface for offline Use
