I deleted some rows in DB and the data in record type was not updated accordingly.  I've checked the tab Sync Options in record type and there is a button Start Full Sync. I'm wondering if it will affect the DB when I click that button to sync data manually, as this record type is scheduled for full sync at another time, and I want my record type data to be updated immediately.  Thanks for any advise!

Hello? Is there a way to set the working days and non-working days of the process calendar at once without selecting them one by one in [Appian Designer -> objects -> Process calendar]? I have found out some plug-ins at the AppMarket.    1. Business Calendar Management    https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/business-calendar-management     2. Calendar IO    https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/calendar-io Both are mentioning about "uisng database". I tired to find the table for the calendar in the database but was not succesful. (Save calendar function seems to be deprecated. Which is the function that I need most.) How do Appian Developers usually manage business calendar?Do you create and use a separate calendar other than the process calendar provided by appian?Or is there an easier and more convenient way to set the appian process calendar? Functional support for setting up a business cal

Hello,  I have an ask to insert a generated PNG file into an HTML document we generate through the "HTML Doc From Template".  This document is then later converted to PDF which is given to the user. The image generation and PDF generating is working fine, however I cannot get the image to appear in the template.  I've found many older forum posts saying to convert the image to Base64, but it appears the functionality to generate the base64 within a process model has been removed from Appian.  I cannot pre-generate the Base64 as the image itself is generated on the fly and then deleted within the same process. Any ideas? Thank you!

How do I get a listing of all Record Types?  ( I am trying to build a report of Record Type IDs and UUIDs )

I have a linkField with a recordLink. It displays the wrong label, but when I click the link it takes me to the correct record.  My main table has two columns that are foreign keys to another table for contacts. Ex. Main table has columns primaryContact and secondaryContact. Row 1 has primaryContact 1 and secondaryContact 2. The 1 and 2 are foreign keys that reference the Contacts Table, with columns id and name. Row 1 has id 1 name Michael. Row 2 has id 2 name Luis. Ex record link: a!recordLink( label: ri!record[recordType!MainTable.relationships.ContactsTable.fields.name], recordType: recordType!ContactsTable, identifier: ri!record[recordType!MainTable.fields.secondaryContact] ) The expected behavior is to see the name Luis and when the user clicks Luis, it displays Luis's record.  The actual behavior is it shows the name Michael and when the user clicks Michael, it displays Luis's record.  So, it is displaying the wrong label, but the correct

After the 22.2 upgrade our processes that use Send File Over SFTP is not working correctly. We confirmed the file is being generated as it is being stored in the expected folder in Appian and process is running successfully but the file is not being placed/sent in the SFTP/MFT site configured. We confirmed that the service account we are using have access to the target directory in the site. We also checked with the SFTP/MFT administrator for the logs and confirmed that the file we generated in Appian is not being received in the site. Our processes that retrieves files in the site then loads to Appian doesn't have any issues. We are currently using the 2.2.2 version of SFTP Functions plugin.
