So I have an interface with a grid that allows the user to preview or download a document. I want to hide the preview button if the file extension of the document is pdf. Initially I was going to use showWhen but I wondered if a!foreach would also work? I tried to use the document() function to get the extension, but I realized it only displays it and doesn't retrieve it. This is what I have for the preview button so far. I haven't configured the download button yet. a!buttonWidget( label: "", icon: "eye", tooltip: "View", value: true(), saveInto: { local!preview, a!save(local!selectedDocument, fv!row) } )

Hi, I have an interface with editable grid (a!gridLayout) where I am trying to add a new row with required elements when user clicks on "Add Dcoument". I have to achieve the below requirements. Not 100% sure whether it can be done or not. 1. If any one of the field / element filled with data, other fields/elements should be filled with.  2. Also, there should not be any row with empty empty fields/elements. When I try to write a validation in the Document Title field, then it is applying to all the rows of that field when I click on the "Add Document". Not sure how to handle for row by row.  required: if(a!isNotNullOrEmpty(ri!Documents.documenttype),true(),false())

Hi everyone Here's my scenario: I need to use a Group Browser object for the user to be able to select a group from a list . I can set the initial group as All Users, but that includes groups that may not be selected, such as Administrators. It would seem my easiest method would be to create another group which lists only the desired groups, but I've been told that nesting groups within groups is bad practice. Any thoughts?

Hi everyone, Happy 2023. I've got a question about service accounts: we've got a single environment with no Dev + Test + Prod set up. Just one environment a number of devs at our company all use. A sort of "sandbox" where we have a number of applications. As an example, if 10 of us each had their own application that had an RPA object and a Connected System object (ie: for Portals).... would we need 20 different service accounts with 20 different API keys? Or, can we use 1 service account (+ its API key) for everything? Many thanks,Uel

Hello, I'm new to Appian, and I'm trying to build main page report which is quite similar to this "Form steps". However, each step has to show specific interface by using rule!tInterface1. My question is how can I check the validation for all of these steps at the end of the report and show a summary for all of the errors, e.g. "Step1 has an error". P.S. an error sign appears by "default" in the section that contains an error, Can I check if the section has this sign or not? Thank you in advance!

I was working through one of the modules, went and had a meal, and suddenly the curriculum itself is gone. I have the linked bookmarked so I know it is not a URL error. Even if I just google "Appian curriculum" and try to find it, the link that would ordinarily take me to the developer page says 404 not found.
