Hi, I have a cdt that stores a list of document ids that were uploaded, how can I display all the files using document view? Do I need to use a!foreach() or is there another way?

Hi!  New to Appian, mostly still playing around at this point. When setting up an HTTP(S) connected system, I couldn't find a way to assign a set of standard header key/value pairs that I'd want applied to every specific integration (endpoint) using that connected system.  I did see you could do it for security, which is great.  But if I wanted to apply other standard headers for a particular API (i.e. cache-control, or some non-standard input required by the API), they would have to be recreated on every integration tied to that connected system. Is there a way to do this?  Or could this be a feature request? Thanks!Dave

I have a main page ie; Initiating request page>In the initiating request page, we have three box layouts each boxlayout is from different interface and different datatableThree Box layouts has: 1.Request info interface (Stored in seperate DBtable - Main table for initiation request(AutoGeneratedPrimaryKey)) 2.Request type info interface (Stored in seperate DBtable)- The Auto generated Primarykey value should store for each request type row 3.RequestStock info interface (Stored in Seperate DB table) > Submit of the interface which has all the three info details In the Request type info(2), we can add multiple types like 1,2,3 for single request Initiation,Same for Request Stock info(3), we can add multiple types like 1,2,3 for single request Initiation But After submitting this page only the Auto generated ID will generate for main db table, In this case how can we add this Autogenerated it to other DB table rows(2),(3).

I have a column layout (shown below with dividers) with text fields with adjacent labels. I need this column layout to be more narrow, but when I make it more narrow, it tries to preserve the spacing to the left of the text field labels and shrinks the text field values. I want the opposite. I need to reduce the blank space to the left labels and keep the size of the text fields. How can I get rid of the wasted blank space on the left?

I am a beginner with Appian. In the interface, I input values for each field of a record type and save them to process variables. In the process model, I want to reference the same record, subtract a specific field from the corresponding process variable, and perform the following actions: If the result is 0 or below, I want to send an email without changing the value.If the result is 1 or above, I want to save the calculated result in a process variable and send an email.Can you guide me on how to achieve this in Appian?
