Hi, we recently update our version of Appian to 22.2 and I realized that in the Appian process modeler we can not see the Data Tab and Data Function anymore. That was very useful to see which variables we have in the process or to quickly look for functions without memorizing that. Thus, I ask, do they disable this feature in this new version, or do we have to activate that in some way? In the Documentation I've seen that they actually provide this feature: But this is what I have in my environment: Thank you for helping, regards.

Is there a way to get base64 for a given document? I have a Expression rule where one of the rule inputs is a document. I'm using this Expression rule to prepare the body to be sent in one Integration object (we need to execute some logic, and that's the reason why we are doing it in one ER). How can I get the base64? We know that we can manage it by adding a rule input in that integration object, and passing there the document which will be automatically converted to base64, but the approach mentioned above is possible? Thanks in advance

Hi all, Is there any way to convert an appian document to its base64 format?

Would like to see Appian add a feature where we could setup an audible validation.  For example, we have a data collection application where the user uses a handheld scanner to scan a part number, which returns the item description and unit of measure then they can scan a qty for inventory.  It would be great if you could set it up to play a tone if the part number was not found.  I have it set up to display a message, but if the user is not looking at the screen after each scan then they won't see the message. I am looking into the scanner hardware to see if there is a function I can use, but doubtful.

Attempting to use the records' export to Excel feature to export 50,000 rows.  Is there a method to speed up the performance because the download is taking longer than usual? There is no sorting of the data that was downloaded. We'd appreciate any advice. Thanks, Jasmitha

Hi there! I am trying to have createdBy updatedBy and updatedOn section reflect current changes in the record list when updated for an internal tool. So for instance when a user creates a new question or updates a question, I would like the record list to display that users info in it's own respected column. As of right now I am using loggedInUser() and now() but it is only showing my information all throughout the questions. So really what I'm asking is what do I need to change in the display tab of the records list to have this action work properly. Any help is appreciated!

Hello, Let's see if this is possible, I have a record type with a list in an interface showing the download in excel button. Once per day, on an auto-launched process, I need to send the excel generated to an email address, and also send the file through an FTP directory once per day. There is any way to generate the excel inside a process and work with it? If not, there is any workaround? Thank you!
