Hi  Team,I am having use case where we are using IDENTITY feature available in Oracle in substitute of Sequences. and it is working fine from database insertion. But Appian is still expecting sequences.I went through few of the posts regarding  the same but there is no solution available rather than using sequences.I wanted to know if Appian is upgraded with the similar feature ? Anyone has used any strategy to accommodate the IDENTITY change ?Any feedback help is appreciated.

Does anyone know if the advanced call web service app market plugin supports SSL Client Authentication?    The documentation indicates is supports ability to call secure HTTPS services that use a self-signed certificate but unclear if that is the same thing as SSL Client Authentication.    Thanks Bob

Hello everyone! I'm in the process of designing a quiz feature, and I'm struggling with designing an algorithm that will choose questions for a quiz. I believe my issue would easily be solved with a while loop, but since this is unavailable in Appian, I need some help designing an alternative solution. I have no code written, so let me describe my issue from a high level. I have a table containing quiz questions - around 400 rows at the moment. When loading a quiz form, I need to pull randomly chosen 40 questions from this table. First, I determine the first available question ID. Then, I determine the last available question ID. I save both as integers, 7 and 403. Then, I get a random integer number, picked from a range between 7 and 403. And here's where I get stuck: I need to make sure these numbers are unique. Normally I would have an array that I would append with these randomly generated integers on the condition that they are not already in the array, and I would do

Trying to save records ID back into the process variable when doing 'Write Records' but it's deleting the data of de process variable and only saving it's IDs. Any input on what I might be doing wrong? Is this normal with the write records node?

Hi! I have created a process model in which a validation is needed depending on the group of the user In this case, if the user is from the group "CPF Proveedores", a validation Interface should appear as a task for the users of the group "CPF_Gestores". In order to fulfill my objective, I configured the User Input tnterface In order to fulfill my objective, I configured the User Input task this way: It works properly, and the task can be shown in "Tempo" for the Gestor1 (OK). But this "forces" the user to go to the tempo site, and I would like to show him that he has a task in a summary view of my site, for example. Which approach would you recommend me as a best practice? Is it possible to create a button to link with tempo? Maybe a link in one field?  Any opinion to define my approach would be useful  Thanks a lot

When designing an interface for a record action, I noticed I am having trouble optimizing the UI for the specific dialog box size, since its width and height are fixed. I think we could benefit from dialog box sizes (large, medium, small) being available options alongside device widths in the preview pane of the expression rule designer.  

Hello,I'm currently utilizing intelligent document processing to extract data from PDFs. However, in line with our client's needs, we are interested in exploring the extraction of text from handwritten PDFs or images. Can anyone confirm if this is achievable through Appian? or any other way.

"Hello everyone! I'm currently working with an RPA agent and I'm wondering if anyone has experience or insights on how to automatically start an RPA agent when the system restarts. I'd like to ensure that the agent is up and running without any manual intervention after a system reboot. NOTE: We have a dedicated server for production where we store all our agents and files logs. However, we are experiencing scheduled server downtime every day. Fortunately, the server eventually comes back online, and we expect our bots to automatically go online without requiring any manual intervention. This ensures the continuous operation of our bots once the server is back up.Here are a couple of approaches I follow: 1. I have created a task scheduler using a bat.file, which allows me to automate the startup of the RPA agent at a specific time or during system boot.---  but unfortunately, the scheduled task isn't working as intended. It fails to activate t

Hi All, Whenever I run the RPA process and encounter issues such as process stuck near any step or failures due to XPath changes, I'm encountering an unexpected error in the execution log. The error message reads: "To perform this action, you must first open a browser with the open browser action." even when a browser is already open and operational. Unfortunately, it appears that the system is not recognizing the open browser despite its presence.When attempting to validate element presence using the "is element present", despite setting up expressions to recheck the element 15 times within a loop, I'm encountering an issue where the loop isn't being entered, and instead, an "open browser" error is being generated. 

Hello, I've configured the RPA agent on the AWS server, and it runs fine when AWS is open. However, when I close AWS, I'm unable to execute the RPA as it's waiting for the resources too long. The status of the agent is offline. 

Hi! I´m trying to import a CSV to Appian via Cloud Database When I finish to enter my data and try to import, the following error appears: It seems like the table has been created but I have no access for some reason/permissions (I´m the admin of my site so I don´t know what to do). I wanted to ask: 1) ¿How can I correct fix this error? 2) ¿Is this the correct way to create a database in appian from a CSV? Thanks a lot

Hi All, We have developed an application. We have designed UI with front-end technologies and back-end with java,  But UI front-end technologies are not acceptable in Client side, Can we use Appian to design front end interfaces and link with backend java code?

Hi all, I would like to know if one of the process node had configured Exception Flow and then that node fails will it paused by process Exception or will Exception Flow triggers.Can you please give me some technical details regarding this. Best Regards, Divya

I have a record with all text columns, even the integer/decimal data is being saved in text type fields. In appian I want to sort ascending/descending properly but it is taking the ASCII value of string & sorting them on that basis. Is there any work around in "gridField" with data as recordType?

Hi! I have created a process model in which a validation is needed depending on the group of the user In this case, if the user is from the group "CPF Proveedores", a validation Interface should appear as a task for the users of the group "CPF_Gestores". In order to fulfill my objective, I configured the User Input t In order to fulfill my objective, I configured the User Input task this way: But the fact is that, when I enter as the user from "CPF_Proveedores", the validation interface appears to me, instead of leaving it as a "pending status" until the user from "CPF Gestores" approves/rejects it. This means that the logic of detecting the user is correct, but the interface is shown to CPF Proveedores too. What am I configuring wrong?  Thanks a lot for your time

Consider there are three steps in a process which run parallel and each of the task is assigned to three users, now you need to design the process in such way that if any of the user completes a particular task then other two tasks has to be cancelled, what is your design approach in Appian
