Hello, We would like to insert a dynamic number of images into a document that looks like the following, using the Advanced Document Templating Plugin: Entry 1: Data for Entry 1 Image for Entry 1 Entry 2: Data for Entry 2 Image for Entry 2 ... Entry n: Data for Entry n Image for Entry n Is there a way to do this?  It does seem possible to put a dynamic number of images all together using a list and the bookmark like so: «[#list logo as logo]» «[/#list]» but is there a way to put in a dynamic number of images separately?

I have a very simple application that is just based on one record type that comes from an integration. Making the edit/view interface was a piece of cake. Now I need to make the create new record functionality, for which I can re-use the same interface for edit/view. The issue is that I am unable to find a way to do this without creating a process model. I don't need all of the complexity of a process model. I can call the create integration from the save into in the interface. There is no work flow and I don't need to launch any kind of other process. Having a process model is WAY WAY overkill for this case. How can I simply open the same interface with a blank record from the record list (via action or similar) with out needing the overkill of a process model? Thanks

I have an interface that opens for a single record passed in via a rule input from a REST integration GET call. The interface opens as read-only be default. There is a button at the bottom labeled "Edit". When the user clicks this button, interface becomes editable. When the interface is editable, there is a button labeled "Cancel" at the bottom. When the user clicks the "Cancel" button, I need to discard any changes the user made, and revert back to the original copy of the record. I have attempted to do this by calling the integration which is the GET by ID in the saveInto of the Cancel button. The value is successfully fetched, and I can view it when I put the result into a paragraph field, but when I assign this result back to the rule input, the fields of the interface are not updated and the user changes are not reverted. Is there an easier way to discard the user changes and go back to the original record? NOTE: The goal of the Cancel button is

Hi, Wanted to understand on how Appian parses an Expression Rule that uses a!queryAggregation and a!queryAggregationColumn against a Table/View? Does it convert and send a query as-is with GROUP By to the database SQL engine or does it get the data and then do the grouping on-fly in its memory? Thank you in advance for your response.

I'm encountering an intermittent issue when using a!startProcessLink within a a!richTextItem in a task. The process model being called is fully chained from Start to End and works fine when called from a Record as a Record Action. But in this case where I am calling from a Task, once the process ends, I sometimes get the error message: "The Task Could Not Be Submitted. The task has already been submitted." This occurs sporadically. Any insights into why this might be happening and how it can be resolved? Thank you!

I need to store a user id, along side several picture uploads all in a relational database. My solution for storing the pictures would be to save the pictures locally on appian and save the document ids on the database alongside the user id. However, with the way I have it implemented right now it seems I cannot pass in the user id into the body alongside the picture upload as it takes up the entire body. I also cannot attach several pictures for upload. I need a way to be able to pass in the user id and atleast 3 pictures into the body to be saved in the database.

I have a subtask that receives a text variable from the parent in the input and is meant to return 2 variables in the output, an AppianDocument and the name of said document as a Text variable. I have logs put in place to see the results of the expressions that run the queries necessary to fetch the document and it's name. And the logs return the following:[WARN] 2023-12-01 13:08:03 01m 26s (0h) - com.novayre.jidoka.client.api.appian.documents.AppianDocument@5ec6for the log that just returns the Appiandocument pv!Document variable.

But the variables in the console appear as null and as a "" string respectively. As if they never got casted. And when I want to return the variables to the parent robotic task, it returns an error. [ERROR] 2023-12-01 13:12:51 55s (0h) - Error executing action [robotic-subprocess->exitV2]java.lang.

Hello, I keep getting the this error in my process model: "Error: Work Item Cancelled (Data Inputs)" on a Create Group smart service node. I read that this is often caused by the assigned user being deactivated, however the lane assignment is to an active user and all notes as assigned in the lane. What else could be the issue?

I've done some searching on this topic, but it's been awhile since this question has been asked/answered so looking for some updated info.  What is the best way to send a text message  to external cell phones.  And to include some custom text and possibly an image in the text. Any insight into this would be super appreciated.

Hello, we've been trying to use PGP Encryption Utilities plugin. From here we're using encryption smart service and no other node (to begin with). Public key was generated with gpg4win (RSA, 3074 bit). This configuration actually returns a different error than other formats so my assumption is this is the correct one. But then a new error showed up running the encryption smart service node "In order to access this method, this Document needs to be retrieved via ContentService.download()" The output document shows in appian designer, has corresponding extension, but is of size <1KB (0 probably) and it's not downloadable. In the PM, when using PV to store the encrypted document as an output of the smart service, the PV ends up with no value. Any sugggestion what could be going wrong?
