Existing Code: Using richtextdisplayfield to show related actions on UI/Summary(customized)  New Code: We are planning to create Sync Records and all these links are enabled under Related Actions. Now i dont them to be displayed as dialog box buttons or dont want them under "Related Actions" page. Instead the look of the UI should look like the existing one like above. How can we customize this using modern records/records--> not sure how to make use of a!recordActionField() if it helps. Any suggestions or inputs helpful here!! Thanks in advance

Hello, we're attempting to use the "Word Doc from Template" Smart Service on a Merged word document, but the smart service only replaces the placeholder from the first document that was merged. For example if we have 3 docs with placeholders, merge them, then run the Word Doc from Template Smart Service, the output document will only have replaced the placeholders that were contained within the content or the first document. We've checked all of the formatting of the placeholders in the XML and everything looks correct. The issues aren't caused by what's outlined in this KB document. Any idea what might be causing this? Merge document plugin community.appian.com/.../dynamic-document-generator

We intend to incorporate Appian into our existing application (development) landscape. Now questions pop up like what do we do with it and what don't we do in the application development area.In terms of application development now more focused on .Net/C# and a few apps on the MS power platform. Adding Appian means additional exploitation costs, investment in knowledge and employees. In terms of application development, should we now focus entirely on Appian and phase out the rest?

Working with a student who accidentally deleted an images folder. He can put the images back but they all have new ids, so the table which stores the id numbers is now woefully out of date. Is there any way to assign an id to an image, so that the images we recreate will have the same numbers as the table?

Hi,I have a custom output node in a process model which is calling an expression rule which takes one rule input of type Map list.    The expression rule generically updates some fields within the map.    We are able to pass a list of any custom data types into this expression rule and Appian happily cast from CDT list  to Map list.   The output node  target process variable is defined as a list type of CDT (same process variable value passed to the expression rule is being updated).   Appian process model will not implicitly cast the expression rule return value back into list of CDT and in fact magically wipes out the process variable completely.   If I add an explicit cast function call in the custom output expression it works fine.   With the expression world is good and getting correct results. cast( 'type!{urn:com:florencehc:types:SC}SC_Request?list', rule!SC_setAuditFields(request: pv!request, act
