Good morning, We are trying to recover directory information with the Get Remote Folder Contents smart service (FTPS). The configuration we have is: fileTransferConf: 'type!{plugins.ps.appiancorp.com/.../}FT_Config'(  serverHostName: "ftp.prueba.es", serverPort: 21021, scsExternalSystemKey: "sftp_prueba_appian", usePerUserCredentials: false() } Server File Path: "/DEV/" * In the user console we have configured the scsExternalSystemKey with the corresponding user and pass. The error obtained is: ERROR com.appiancorp.ps.plugins.filetransfer.ftps.GetRemoteFolderContentsOverFTPS - org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException: Connection closed without indication. The credentials are the same ones we are using in WinSCP and FileZilla. Both work fine to connect to FTPS site. We have tried adding documents so that the route is like this: "/DEV/test.docx" Has anyone faced the same problem? A greeting and thanks in advance.

Hi All, In the database the createdBy field holds "userid@test.com" which is the userid of the user. When i create a recordist using the respective table and have the OOTB search on createdBy field to get the record on  using  "John" or "Smith"  as the search value , it doesnt return any record. But if search on email return the data. ( Note: John and Smith is the first and last name of the user). The custom grid in front end holds the Display field using user function. But as the recordlist is created on userid , search on First or Last name is not returning any record. Multiple options tried: 1) Created a custom field , but user function cannot be called in custom field                                     2) Changed the data type field from text to User type  in the mapped fields of RecordType and called in recordlist . Still

Is it best practice to verify if an error will occur on every node in the process? In this instance, I've set a timer to delay for 5 or 10 minutes, so even if the process in the first line encounters an error, it won't be marked as active with error. thank you.

Hi Champs, Is there any way to check the number of nodes in the process model exists in teh entire application?In our health report it says there are 50 PM having more than 50 nodes but didn't give the list of those.

Hi All, Does anyone know if its possible to skip steps in a vertical milestone? What I mean is that the stamp can stay grayed out based on a value, and then if it was skipped only the first and third would be green, is this possible? I have tried a few things but it still keeps the linear flow. Like in this case if I went from claim filed to estimate issued , all 3 stamps are green, I would want Green - grey - green because technically the second one didn't happen. or another option could be to hide the middle stamp too. but not sure if that can be done. { a!localVariables( local!verticalSteps: { a!map(name: "Claim Filed", icon: "archive", date: today() - 5, isCompleted: true), a!map(name: "Vehicle Inspected", icon: "search", date: today() - 4, isCompleted: true), a!map(name: "Estimate Issued", icon: "file-text-o", date: null, isCompleted: false), a!map(name: "Payment Sent", icon: "money", date: null, isComple

 Hi, hope you're all doing well! I would like to have shortcuts specially for the mouse "select" and the "connect" tool in Appian Process Modeler. As they get so much usage, it should be extremely useful to instead of be always clicking the same tools, we could simply type "S"  to switch between"connect/select" cursors. To be honest I am fascinated by shortcuts, but those two would be of crucial value in my opinion, as the reasons are already explicated above. By the way I would like to know what are the possibilities for this suggestion to get implemented? Thanks in advance
