Hi All, I'm getting an error when I'm trying to write multiple rows to the database at the same time. When I only give one item to the process variable it works just fine, but when is multiple it throws this error. Details: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute statement: org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute statement: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: String or binary data would be truncated in table . I have everything correctly set up to accept multiple already, such as the process variable and the write to database smart service. any ideas of what could it be?

Hi All  I have successfully configured a single sign-in solution that is working perfectly for our clients. I am also configured Attribute Mapping like Create New Users Upon Sign-In and Update User Attributes Upon Sign-In it works fine, but when it comes to Group Membership Synchronization I add one group(AD Test) in Azure Ad in which one user will be added and the same group added(AD Test) in appian under the group type (A Brand) when i try to access the appian With that user credential, I am successfully get the acess the appian  but no user will be added to the appian group(AD Test). Could you help with what I did wrong here? 

Hi Everyone, Is there any alternative to the executive stored procedure smart service which is depricated?

I am working on a project where I want to use or() function. While using the or() function I found one bug when you write any word starting with the letter "T" in the or() function you will get a true return and for any other word then "T" returns false. I am adding some images for more clear discussion. in this, I used random words starting with the letter "T" using words other than the "T"

I am looking to hire an appian developer to build a BPM app on my website, to model, publish, and view simple process maps. if anyone here is interested and can provide sample work please let me know how to contact you. i can discuss it further on a zoom call.

Was the issue with Appian being unable to select the scheme in SQL server for recorded types/data stores resolved in 23.3?   Is there an ETA when this issue will be resolved.   This really slows down development on my team and makes appian much harder to use if you are pointing it to a database that has multiple schemes on it.  

Hello, I need to improve the accessibility of an interface that includes grids. In HTML, the "caption" tag can be used to provide additional description or context to an element, such as a table. However, I can't find a direct way to achieve something similar in a grid in Appian. My question is is there any way or recommended approach to add additional description or context to a grid in Appian?

Hi All, Scenario is we are connected to a PostgreSQL that has a custom data type, from which we we're able to create a CDT on Appian end and manage to verify it on our Data Store. for the custom data type on Postgre, we transform it to a text and it went well. However when doing a specific query to that specific field, thats where the issue persist. Can you advice on this? Data on Postgre Error when doing a query on the specific field

Hi! I have an interface in which the user can add new Rows. When the user clicks the "Completar creacion pedido" button, the values stored in my local variable are correctly passed to my rule input "recordLineasPedido".  I leave here my structured code: a!localVariables( local!LineasPedido, { a!sectionLayout( label: "LÃ%ADneas Pedido", labelIcon: "list-alt-solid", contents: { a!gridLayout( label: "A continuación, incorpore las lÃ%ADneas de pedido correspondientes y pulse el botón de creación", headerCells: { a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Linea Pedido"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Pedido"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Proveedor"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Material"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Precio Unitario"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Cantidad"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Importe Total"),

DB view associated with CDT but don't have primary Key. We used DB View in a!ExportDataStoreEntityToExcel to extract data(20k Records) into Excel File and getting an timeout Error. Is there any way to apply Composite Key for few columns on CDT to extract data to Excel without errors ? In Appian Best Practices mentioned that there is a way to apply composite key but no example. If anyone knows the solution please replay here. Thank you.

Hi, all -- I am working on a mock-up with an editable table that is not hooked up to any database. I want to make one row unselectable while keeping the other rows able to be selected. Is there anything I can put in the expression to achieve this effect for UI purposes only? Thanks. 

Hello All, I have successfully configured a single sign-in solution that is working perfectly for our clients. However, we have a new requirement from our clients. They want to implement a process where a user added to a specific group on the Azure AD side should also be automatically added to a corresponding group on the Appian side. These groups will have the same name and purpose in both environments. To elaborate: - Azure Group: [ABC Accounts] - Appian Group: [ABC Accounts] The aim is to ensure that any user added to the specified group in Azure AD is seamlessly added to the corresponding group in Appian without manual intervention.  Please provide guidance on the steps required to set up this automated user synchronization and any best practices to ensure smooth ongoing operation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please let me know if you require any further information from my end. Best regards,Prasad
