Hi, my use case here is while managing a bunch of test users, I want to be able to determine for each of those test users, if their passwords have expired or going to expire so that we can display it as a warning to whomever is managing those test accounts. As such, I'm wondering if there's a way to be able to query information from system logs into a process/interface or be able to query admin console settings information? Thanks in advance

Hi, I am working on DocCenter Classification and have a few questions around reconciliation and automation. Looking for guidance from anyone who has implemented this. **My Use Case:** I want to classify documents automatically without any human involvement in the reconciliation step. **My Questions:** 1. Is it possible to auto-reconcile a classification instance in DocCenter without human intervention? 2. Does DocCenter Classification expose a confidence score as an output in a process model (similar to the Classify Documents Smart Service)? 3. If DocCenter Classification does not support auto-reconciliation natively, what is the recommended approach to achieve straight-through processing (STP) for classification? Thanks in advance. 

Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue while using Appian AI Skill (GenAI) with an Excel file. When I upload an Excel file with empty data, I get one type of classification output. However, when I upload the same file structure but with data inside, it produces a different classification output. Essentially, the classification result varies depending on whether the file has data, and it seems inconsistent each time. Has anyone experienced this issue before? Any insights on why the classification behavior changes like this?

Appian 25.3 I'm using a!queryRecords(.....).data to get an array of records from my record type in a process model.  Next, I setup a loop and need to index each record in the array.  However, this syntax does not work within the process model: pv!myRecords[pv!recordIndex] I receive this error:  An error occurred while evaluating expression: myRec:pv!myRecords[pv!recordIndex] (Expression evaluation error: PE My RecType must be indexed by its corresponding record type fields or relationships) (Data Outputs) This exact, same syntax works if I move it into an expression rule and call that from the process model. The process variable is of the exact same type as the rule input on the expression rule (i.e. array of my record type).  Yet, I cannot index the array directly in a script task in the process model Is there something I'm doing wrong here? Thank you.

The organization I'm working with recently had their Appian environments upgraded to 26.3 and it appears that the documented method for passing formatted text to the MS Word template using the MS 2007 Word Doc from Template smart service no longer works. Before the upgrade, when passing text to the template via the smart service, all newlines (char(10)) were replaced with the Word ML tag <w:br />, which would allow the formatting in the replacement text to be preserved. However since the upgrade, the formatting is lost and the <w:br /> tag is visible in the generated document. Using other formatting characters like <br/> or char(10), char(13) doesn't seem to fix this, how to we proceed from here?

I am working with a rule in Appian where I expect a consistent structure of List of Map, but I am seeing inconsistent data types in the output.a!localVariables( local!indexval: index( ri!userFilters, "userFilter", null ), local!filters: split(local!indexval, ";"), a!forEach( items: local!filters, expression: a!localVariables( local!valueStart: find("value=[", fv!item), local!valueBlock: if( isnull(local!valueStart), "", mid( fv!item, local!valueStart + 7, len(fv!item) ) ), local!cleanValueBlock: substitute(local!valueBlock, "]", ""), /*Values */ local!AccountName: if( find("name=AccountName", fv!item) > 0, a!forEach( items: split(local!cleanValueBlock, ","), expression: trim(substitute(fv!item, """", "")) ), {} ), local!ProductCategory: if( find("name=Product Category", fv!item) > 0, a!forEach( items: split(local!cleanValueBlock, ","), expression: trim

Hello guys, So I was trying to add image to the document (both dynamic and static) . I included the required image doc as constant in my XML. I got the id of the document in the generated document. Some discussions explain about bookmarks. I have tried that but still the same. It gets a bracket outside of the doc Id. So Any other possible solutions. Also I want some notes or any references or other new things in this plugin for my seminar. Thanks in Advance. First image is the template. Second one is the xml code. Third one is the one I got so far.

We have 4 query database smart service nodes in the process model which we are triggering through interface using a!startProcess() based on selected action like add,update and move but business want us to show real time error in the interface if any node fails or process fails, how can we achieve this?

I am exploring the Appian AI  agend and faced the below Appian error. enable to understand and fix these issue.If anyone has faced similar issue please let know the fixes.

we are receiving data via web api in Appian. as the volume is very high, we save the events to database to process them later via a second process model which keeps polling the db for pending events.  The issue is that processing should be in ALMOST real time without overwhelming the Appian environment. to do that, we tried to schedule the polling process every 30 seconds. but the minimum time it takes for repeat configuration is 5 minutes which is of no use to us.   how can we configure a process to run every 30 seconds ?

Hello Everyone, I am using DocX from Dynamic Template to insert a signature in a Word document. I need to insert the same image in two different places. While the first signature is working correctly, the second one is not updating as expected and remains the same. I have uploaded the Template, XML code, Images code, and the generated document for your review. Please let me know if there's an issue with my configurations. Thank you in advance!

Title: How to download Column Chart Field as PNG with chart labels in Appian? Hi Team, I am using a Column Chart Field in Appian interface and I want to provide an option for users to download the chart as a PNG image. My requirement is: Download the complete column chart as a PNG file Include chart labels/data labels in the downloaded image Maintain the chart formatting and visibility Could anyone suggest: Is this possible using native Appian functionality? Are there any plugins or JavaScript approaches available? Has anyone implemented chart export/download functionality in Appian interfaces? Any suggestions or sample approaches would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi Team, I have a base record type and I configured multiple grids using that same record. In the grid, I am using the export/download option to download the records. However, when the file gets downloaded, the exported file name/display name is showing the Base Record name instead of the configured Record Label. My requirement is: The exported file should display the Record Label or grid-specific name It should not show the Base Record type name Could anyone help me understand: Why the export is taking the Base Record name? Is there any way to customize the export file name or make it use the Record Label? Is this expected Appian behavior or is there any workaround available? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have list of maps in a local variable . I am using it in grid field . I need to apply sort to the columns. Sorting is supported only when the data is from query entity or record. Is there any workaround where we can manually apply sort to the grid when the data is a list of map. Sample code.a!localVariables( local!data: { a!map(id: 1, uin: 234, count: 5, ), a!map(id: 2, uin: 232, count: 5, ), a!map(id: 3, uin: 28, count: 5, ) }, a!gridField( data: local!data, columns: { a!gridColumn(label: "ID", value: fv!row.id), a!gridColumn(label: "UIN", value: fv!row.uin), a!gridColumn(label: "COUNT", value: fv!row.count) } ) ) Can you please help me with the sorting 

Hi Community, I'm building an HTML-to-PDF generation flow and need to embed an employee photo (stored as an Appian Document) directly into an <img> tag as a Base64 data URL, like this: <img src="data:image/png;base64,{BASE64_STRING}" /> I want to construct the value in an Appian expression as: "data:image/png;base64," & base64Data My question: Is there a built-in Appian expression function to convert a Document to a Base64 string? Using the Appian document URL directly in <img src> does not work. Thank you
