Hello, We are trying to compare two variables data inside 'IF' condition  on Appian interface but we are not sure how to apply AND and OR condition? Kindly let us know, how to add AND and OR operators in 'IF' condition. We tried using 2 different approaches but getting error 'The function 'if' [line 1] has 3 parameter(s), but instead passed 4 parameter(s).' 1. if(not(isnull(local!customeraccountnumber)) AND (local!selectedTab > 1), true(),false()) 2. if(not(isnull(local!customeraccountnumber)) && local!selectedTab > 1, true(), false())

Hi All,  I'm using the Google Charts Component Plugin, specifically for Tree Maps. I want to display the values dynamically in the tooltip as shown in the google developer documentation. But, in the Appian tree map plugin function, i only see option to show basic tooltip with showTooltips:true() option. Is there a way to display dynamic tooltip in Appian as shown in the google developer documentation. Thanks in advance.

I configured a process model to trigger on recieving an email, with in the process model I am using a Send E-mail smart service to send a confirmation email to the one who sends the mail, confirming them that the instance is triggered. Here the issue is, the email we are sending using Send E-mail smart service is going as a separate email but I want to send it as a reply email that they send to appian process model. Can we achieve this? Is it possible?

Hi, i would like to know what are the possible reasons why a record is not shown in a record type. Record Type is connected to a data store. This specific row does exist in the database, but is not shown in a record type. Thank you.

Hi Team, We have a custom GenAI platform in my company with custom chat completions API. Is there an interface component available in Appian that provides chat like UI? Or how can we design one?

I am facing a security issue when I use the function a!doesGroupExist() in the record additional dashboard. Is there any restriction in using this function? Appian Documentation a!doesGroupExist()

thank you always.Something unprecedented happened with the interface I was developing. Implemented in expression mode on 2024/4/4 18:00 (JST) and saved without errors.2024/4/5 09:00 (JST), Opening the same interface causes an expression error. There is no evidence that anyone has edited it. There were certainly no errors when I saved it yesterday, and I was happy to be able to display it and took a capture. However, by the end of the night, the code that worked was determined to be an error. Specifically, get the value from the record type and save the aggregated value in a local variable. The display was successful by passing the alias defined when aggregating the variable + measure to the graph.Here's how to pass it.local variable name.data["alias name"] However, the next morning, an error occurred in the .data["alias name"] part.The details of the error are as shown in the attached image. As a workaround, the issue was resolved by removing the .data["alias name"] part from the v

Hi there, I just want to know if it's possible to have multiple authentication methods (ie SAML and OpenID Connect) for the same cloud instance? At the moment, 98% of our users use SAML authentication with just one Identity Provider and the remaining 2% use Appian native connection. In the near future, we will setup a second SAML IdP for a future app we are going to build as these users don't use the existing IdP we do. For yet another future app, the potential users will be authenticated via OpenID Connect. Is this possible in our Cloud instance to have both authentication methods, SAML and OpenID Connect? We will make sure that no user will be in multiple authentication groups. Thanks.

Hello, thank you for everything.There is something I would like to discuss with you today. Within the interface's expression mode, I am attempting to retrieve data from a record type, aggregate that data, and display it in a graph.The aggregation process is done in units of month and year, such as the total amount for each month in 2024.I prepared a temporary record type for practice. If all the target data contained in the record type is of date type, the implementation was successful. However, among the designed record types, there are fields that are text type and have date data. This is text type data such as "2024/11/04".I would like to convert the value of this item to date type data between acquisition and aggregation processing. If it is a text type, conversion can be achieved using todatetime(). However, this function does not work well for data obtained from record types. The error is that it is a record type type or a record field type, and that these types can

I am having trouble with the error "Export Data Store Entity to Excel Smart Service". I am using "Copy Document Service" and "Export Data Store Entity to Excel Smart Service" in the process model. The contents I want to process are as follows. ① Copy an Excel document. ② Paste the content exported from the Data Store Entity into the copied document. To achieve these goals, we first stored the document output by "Copy Document Service" as "pv!copyExcelTemplate".Thanks to this, ① was achieved. Next, I set "pv!copyExcelTemplate" to "Document to Update". This results in an error that says, "Please select a new document name, or if you want to access an existing document, select the document you want to update."(it's Japanese) The document should be configured correctly, so why am I getting this error? Note that if I leave "Document to Update" blank, I can export the contents o

Hi All I have a requirement to implement a SOAP solution, I have exposed the web API from Appian to third party system(legacy system). This system sends the data to appian  through web API on daily basis and appian has to process the data and save in our database and in turn API should respond with SOAP Body. Since these are confidential data, I have to implement ws-security for the response. For the response body I have to generate the digest value and digital signature and send these in the same response. Query: How to implement digital signature in appian probably configuring XML signature with X.509 tokens? Using hash function, I can generate the digest value but for digital signature I am not finding the approach/plugins in appian. Please anyone suggest. Thanks in advance  Sample response snippet looks something like this: <Signature xmlns="">www.w3.org/.../xmldsig <SignedInfo> <CanonicalizationMethod Algorithm="">www.w3.org/.../xml-

We are using reCAPTCHA on a portal application wizard that navigates through multiple interfaces.  The problem is that the reCAPTCHA graphic is covering the next button on some of the screens.  Has anyone had this problem and found a good solution? /resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/13/Screenshot-2024_2D00_04_2D00_05-at-2.07.30_2F20_PM.png

Hi Team, There is any function name in appian that we can find out with a user as a input by option in process model under Assignment Tab Run as whoever designed a process model without checking manually one by one process model to get all process model names with that function name? So please if you can suggest any function name it would be helpful for me. I am sharing a screenshot below
