Hello everyone, I can't find a single mention in the docs for this, so here I am - does anyone know what 'Orphaned' means for the result of an Appian RPA process? The process was a longer running one (looping over several pages to pull data out) In the Robotic Processes tab of the Appian RPA dashboard, the Result shows as Aborted and Orphaned. It shows pretty much the same thing in the Monitoring -> Events tab. There's no error in the process indicating why it would have broke, so any insight is appreciated!

Has anyone done any integration with an Appian program and a PLC?

Hello, We need to get message from Blue Prism integration after integration call is successful.  When we call integration directly in integration object we get response in raw response like this: "<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap='schemas.xmlsoap.org/.../' xmlns:xsi='www.w3.org/.../XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xs='www.w3.org/.../XMLSchema' xmlns:soapenc='schemas.xmlsoap.org/.../'><soap:Body><Message xsi:type='xs:string'>Successfully completed process</Message></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>"   But, when we call integration using call integration smart service in process model and try to save response we get empty result: [] saved in process variable.  Is there a way to get the raw http body while calling the integration smart service so I can parse it manually?

Hi Team, I am trying to get the month, day and year from the date time. I was able to filter the records using a query, but the result is in a list type variant.  I am unable to apply month/day functions to the fv!item. If i write month[fv!item] i am getting the following error. "Expression evaluation error at function a!forEach [line 47]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 16: Expression evaluation error at function 'month' [line 56]: A null parameter has been passed." I believe it is because each individual item is itself a list. I don't know how to drilldown the list.  fv!item[1] give me another error.  "Expression evaluation error at function a!forEach [line 47]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 1: Expression evaluation error : Invalid index: Cannot index type Number (Integer) into type Date and Time". Any help is appreciated. thanks

Hi, I am working on a end-user interface that allows users to add "properties" to different "content type" objects from the front-end, without requiring a developer to go into the back end, create a new table & corresponding joins, update the CDT & relevant objects, & then finally push an update to production. As part of this, I am wondering if it's possible for users to connect to existing tables & record types. The ideal interface would allow users to directly select which record type they want to connect to from the front end. Is there a way to access or store the UUID or name for all record types in an environment?

I have one interface with few questions on it, i want to set the timer as if user not completing this form in particular time period  it will get auto submitted or else he can attempt all the questions and submit the form in time on clicking submit button. or without clicking on submit button how can we submit the form after particular time. Thanks in Advance.

Hi All, what are the possible ways to get our appian certification extended . 

Hi all, Here are my needs: I have a grid of records with checkboxes and a button. I woud like to delete selected records and refresh the grid. Deletion works good. Refresh does not work. I read alreqy these 3 posts with problems similas to mine,  without finding a solution: https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/data/25926/how-to-refresh-a-recordtype-after-the-end-of-a-process https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/data/25694/record-refresh-after-record-action https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/new-to-appian/25654/page-refresh-or-redirect-on-after-button-press/100298#100298 What i did so far is to create a read only grid. Data are retriven from a recordType, relying directly from the DS.  Clicking on checkboxes stores record ids on a local variable. The button invokes a PM who does other operations before deleting checked records from DS. All branches in PM are chained up to the delete step. here the button: a!buttonWidget( label: "Del

Hi all I'm facing a problem when I try run this code: a!richTextDisplayField( labelPosition: "COLLAPSED", value: { a!richTextItem( text: { hour(ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.LeavingTime - ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.StartTime), " hours", if( hour(ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.LeavingTime - ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.StartTime) = "8", " Working hours are complete", if( and(8 > hour(ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.LeavingTime - ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.StartTime) > 0), " Working hours are not complete", if( hour(ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.LeavingTime - ri!ES_Working_Hours_Record.StartTime) = 0, " insert working hours correctly please", " working hours passed limit" ) ) ) }, size: "STANDARD", style: { "STRONG" } ) } ) }, I got this message: Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = ] in rule 'es_working_hours_record2' at function 'hour' [line 33

I am using modern records/Sync records to create related actions. I have around 20+ related actions i need to define for an Interface. I have to pass the most common parameter for all 20 of them. Example: I need to pass Case information into each related action, i am using a!queryRecordType to pass this info. I am passing this 20 times for each 20 RA as mentioned, i am not happy with using it multiple times. I can create an expression rule for it alone and pass it; still it being called 20 times. Is there a better approach to achieve it in single call and passing along to the remaining RAs???? case:a!queryRecordType( recordType: 'recordType!{092e25cb-d859-498e-810c-ede1a27152dd}FAS Manage Case', fields: 'recordType!{092e25cb-d859-498e-810c-ede1a27152dd}FAS Manage Case.fields.{c59a2f56-2d82-405b-8012-f24f371ae9ab}id', filters: a!queryFilter( field: 'recordType!{092e25cb-d859-498e-810c-ede1a27152dd}FAS Manage Case.fields.{c59a2f56-2d82-405b-8012-f24f371ae9ab}id',
