Hi All, We have small requirement like need to replace/substitute the places holders in string with values. a!localVariables( local!template: "Hello, {name}! Welcome to {place}.", local!placeholders: { "name": "John", "place": "Appian" }, a!forEach( items: a!keys(local!placeholders), expression: a!localVariables( local!placeholder: fv!item, local!value: local!placeholders[local!placeholder], local!template: substitute( local!template, "{" & local!placeholder & "}", local!value ), local!template ) ) ) which returns the following out put like  List of Text String - 2 items "Hello, John! Welcome to {place}."(Text) "Hello, {name}! Welcome to Appian."(Text) Need to replaced all of them in single string with some sequential manner. Your expertise is helpful to solve. Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone, I need to display multiple radio buttons in a single column of a grid. I am not sure if this is possible. If anyone can suggest would be helpful.

Scenario: I have a record like below: Container Record which has fields like id, caseId, claimsId, providerId and these 3 fields point to primary keys of 3 other records Case, Claim and Provider. Whenever an entry is made in Case an associated entry is made in Container for fields id and caseId Whenever an entry is made in Claim an associated entry is made in Container for fields id and claimId Whenever an entry is made in Provider an associated entry is made in Container for fields id and providerId At any point there would be only 2 column in Container which would have values. On Container we also have added custom fields to fetch other data fields like summary from Case, Claim, Provider and each of these 3 records have summary field We are using realtime custom field using customfieldmatch to decide which related record should be used to get the summary field for the custom field by looking at which identifier is not null. a!customFieldMatch( value: 'recordTyp

Hi Community, Was going through documentation for breaking-a-chain and came across this point The amount of time between attended tasks exceeds the non-configurable limit of 10 minutes. Can anyone explain this pointer with example? What do we mean by when we say attended, unattended task. What is non-configurable limit and where can we see it It would be helpful if anyone provide explanation on breaking-a-chain in detail with example?

Hello, I have create a Process Task Report having as Report Context multiple processes. I used the a!queryProcessAnalytics to retrieve the data, the only problem is if in column "Assigned to" (tp!assignees) if I have multiple assignments (Group1 and Group2 or Group1 and User1) I won't be able to retrieve the tasks based on the loggedinuser and the groups that is member of (having only one assignee it works.) logicalexpressions: a!queryLogicalExpression( operator: "OR", filters: a!localVariables( local!groups: getgroupsformemberuser(user: ri!user), { a!forEach( items: local!groups, expression: a!queryFilter( field: "c1", operator: "in", value: fv!item, applywhen: not(rule!APN_isBlank(ri!user)) ) ), a!queryFilter(

Hi, I have several DB tasks shown in a to-do list, where it is possible to reassign these tasks to other users. I need to ensure, just before submitting any task, to check if meanwhile a user has been filling the form, anyone has reassigned that task to another user. In that case, if the user click into the "Complete" button, the task can´t be submitted and a warning must be shown in the form. My approach was create a rule that check the if loggedInUser() match with the user in the column of these record, returning a boolean. When I clicked into the "Complete" button, the rule must be executed and decide if I can submit the task or not.The problem is that that rule is execute just once when the user open the task and I can't find a way to force the execution of therule every time I click into the button. In some tasks there is no option for the user to insert data, only display information and complete the task so refreshing that rule everytime

Hi all, We are evaluating using the Appian cloud database encryption, but we need to be able to access the requests audit log information. In the system logs documentation says “Cloud database audit logs are only available for Appian Cloud customers. Additionally, these logs are disabled if database encryption feature is enabled on your Appian Cloud site.” But the documentation for Appian cloud database encryption indicates that binary, error, and audit logs are available. Does anyone know what information is stored in any on these logs? Can we retrieve the information about the requests made ([timestamp],[serverhost],[username],[host],[connectionid],[queryid],[operation],[database],[object],[retcode]) from the binary log instead? Thanks in advance

I need to redirect the user from an existing application(in React) to the appian application using OPEN ID Connect SSO, I have already made the settings by integrating Appian via Open ID Connect(AWS Cognito), and appian provided a callback url https://{my-url-here}.appiancloud.com/suite/oidc/callback I would like to authenticate the user in another application using the same OpenID Connect client and redirect the user to Appian without having to log in again for example: https://{my-url-here}.appiancloud.com/suite/oidc/callback?token={token-generated in another application} is this possible?

Here I'm facing the issue, when i click on the uploading file submit, the screen is submitting directly and trigerring other process model.Just because submit true is also applied for second submit button. The entire interface is a start form for one process model and there is  another process model triggered using startprocess smart service in uploadfile submit button. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I've been trying to implement this functionality since morning but with no luck. We have a form where the user can input multiple locations if they want to. The functionality is as follows: 1. User fills out the address and additional questions as below The information for these questions is saved in the Input record type which has a one-to-one relationship with Project Location record type.  If the user clicks on add potential location, a new Project Location entry is appended to the existing Project Location array. We need to give the user the option to prepopulate the values of the previous location to the new location if they want.  My approach is as follows: I need to create a local!currentIndex variable that uses wherecontains function to tap into the values and give me the array. I then index into that array and store it to another local variable local!prepopulatedData Problem is, I never used wherecontains before and the logic of this is confusing

it is  posible to  change a sharepoint    folder name using the  update folder metadata integration

Hello, I'm getting this weird whenever I pass in the rv!identifier of a record  Here is my related record action below. I'm only passing in the rv!identified which should be stored in the corresponding rule input ri!projectPlanId When I pass a test (i.e projectPlanId = 82) the interface works like I want it to. But when t is passed through the related record action, and test it through the site, the error persists.  is there a typo I missed or am I missing something more complicated here. Isn't the interface supposed to take in the rv!identifier, which I know is a number. Or am I messing up somewhere else? If anyone likes to see snippets of code, I'd be happy to provide some. Appreciate all the help!

Is it possible for a single user to have more than one identity when being authenticated through SAML on an Appian Cloud instance? I.e. be in more than one SAML authentication group? The user would have a primary IdP that would be first priority but would still need to be authenticated against a secondary IdP on occasion. The reason for this is that some users will need to access Appian through two separate networks, depending on their role and physical location. Each network has an AD to act as the IdP and there is overlap between the users within each AD, resulting in a scenario where a user needs to be in two authentication groups and is then authenticated against one IdP on log in, depending on the network the user is accessing Appian from.

I am struggling with parsing the HTTP response.  I thought fv!result in the rule that called the integration would allow me to access the body of the response.  However, I am getting errors.  The three values I am trying to access are highlighted below.  Screenshots of the function where I call the integration and the response from the call are shown below.  I would like the three values stored in local variables so I can display the text messages to the user.  Thank you in advance! rule!CreatePatientResource( givenName:local!firstName, familyName:local!surName, gender:local!gender, dateOfBirth: local!dateOfBirth, onSuccess: { a!save(local!registrationErrorMessage,null), a!save(local!registrationComplete,t
