I have a document generated by plugin called DOCX From Dynamic Template that I used a list of images in it, it works very good but when I try to convert it to PDF using pdf from docx it works only if there's only 2  images, when there's 3 images the document generates 2 pages instead of 1 page, the plugin won't convert it to pdf. [View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/11/new-doc-_2800_11_2900_.docx:320:240] Attached file of the document.

Is there any page in appian to see all the available plugins that are available in the market provided by Appian?

Hi Appian Devs, I am facing an issue while converting a merged ".docx" file in my process model.If you see the .docx file, it is merging the document as per my requirements, but when i am taking that merged document output variable to convert that document into pdf, I am getting only 2 pages of the entire docx file converted whereas the actual merged docx file is of 20 pages. I tried multiple approaches, the approach of sub-process and many other methods, but not able to get the complete merged document but failed.Can you please give me the right direction?

for example my input is 0323 and i need output march-2023 (or) 03-2023

Hello, I am working on a connected systems plugin that needs to work with the data entities and storage within Appian. I would like to know whether it is possible to create data entities automatically through the plugin if they don't exist and read the data attributes (not only values) of entities all using the Java API. It is also unclear to me from the documentation where I should even begin to look when working with the Java API, so if someone could point me in the right direction as well, that would be great! Thanks!

I have a requirement where I have to process, filter and Validate 35-40 MB  data in excel with 100+ columns and if validation is successful then Import the data into Landing table.

We are already managing 2K rows with process & validate but Customer wants Appian to do filtering and then process. But After filtering we need to do validation on resultant data after filter and inform user via popup or message in UI.
