How to show Record Sync History on the interface as read only?

My needs is to check if other user is standing on page, so in this case i cannot edit data on it. Is there some functionality to check that the record summary page is in use right now? Thanks for help!

I am getting an Invalid Process Parameter error in my interface, and i made sure that the parameters have the same name and type in both process model and Interface. what might be the reason of this error ?  a!startProcess( processModel: cons!GeneratePDF, processParameters: { customerNum:ri!customerNum, descriptionReason:ri!reqDetails.reasonDesc, data:ri!DocDetails, }, onSuccess: {a!save( local!pdfId, fv!processInfo.pv.CreatedPDF )} ), 

We have a use case where we want to try and show a pop up in an interface, and then based on the action performed in that pop up we want to save specific values. For the pop up we're calling a recordActionItem in a recordActionField. Is there a way to pass values back out of the record action once it's been completed and access them in the interface? And is it possible to somehow call a list of saves in the interface after the record action has been completed as well? Thanks for any help!

I am trying to use a!writeToDataStoreEntity   to write to into a database , if one on the fields is a (foreign key) which is an auto-generated primary key of another table in the "same interface ", how can i pass it to the other table when it  hasn't been generated yet?   

Hi, I noticed that in write records it only saves primary key, what if i want to use other fields in next set of forms do i have to query record or there is a way ? Regards  Chandra

Hi Guys, What is the most effective way to do error handling for multiple parallel API calls while loading the interface. Currently My code look something like this. a!localVariables( local!users:rule!APN_GetUsers().result.body, local!items:rule!APN_GetItems(id).result.body, local!info:rule!APN_GetBasicInfo(id).result.body, local!summary:rule!APN_GetSummary().result.body, {} ) If one of the API fails I will show some error in card. But how to effectively do this ? I need to this in multiple interfaces. [mention:126a676c85024855948336691b0a7b92:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

Would it be possible to remove any option from the dropdown on the filter? Also, we have created a ‘Custodian’ dropdown and are passing that value into the record filter to filter the records dynamically. However, there seems to be an issue when we export, such as not showing that value in the filter because that value is not part of the filters. Would it be possible to set that value programmatically?

Hi All, I have a scenario where I want to use the filter logic configured in a record type by calling the filter on the interface.The filter is functional in the record type object, and I do not want to query record type and add filters indectly by creating a dropdown and linking the filter to that.But, I want a logic through which I can directly call the record type filter on the user interface.Is it possible?

Hi, in my interface I have two buttons, "save" and "send as signature", the "save" button saves the filled and unfilled fields but the "send as signature" button must ensure that all the input fields are completed before making a recording. what solution can I use? THANKS !

Hi All, I am facing issue with record sync while writing dataset to the database table using write records.This works fine if we sync record manually , data is inserted , we get the primary key back to the process. The record is a simple record with no relationship defined. Going through the community posts , this issue comes when we have BIGINT type of datatypes defined in the table. So need to verify how to solve this issue without changing primary key column from int8/BIGINT to INT, as we need to store the values greater than int4 range in the database. Is there any way to make this sync work?Kindly guide.Attaching the screenshot. Thanks
