When using SAML it appears that sign in links are not displayed. It would be beneficial if these where visible even when SAML is used. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/18.3/Appian_Administration_Console.html#sign-in-page-links A lot of times customers need a way to notify someone that a user account is locked, or needs to be created. These sign in links are great for this use case. But it seems like they do not display when using SAML.

Hi community, I do not understand the different use cases for adding objects to an specific application or just referencing it (e.g. in an expression). Assume we habe 2 applications: app AAA app BBB Both use onjects from a a "shared" application "ZZZ" providing core functionality (e.g. an interface and other to manage comments) Let's say I want to use some commenting functionality in app AAA. My approach would be to just "use" (reference) the objects from the commenting app, but definitely NOT adding these objects to application AAA. Yet I have seen implementation where (in app AAA) some objects, e.g. ZZZ viewComments are added to the application using the same object in multiple applications. I would assume it would be a good idea to keep each application as isolated as possible. Thank you for some explanation! Dan

Hello... I am trying to  develop a simple HR application, with few tables like Employee, Department, Compensation etc. I have already created an interface for each table for CRUD actions.Now I want to create an interface for HR admin user, who can navigate to these interfaces to perform CRUD actions on these tables.So, I picked the interface pattern - Navigation. I see the left side links like Workspace, Tasks, Requests etc. I have replaced these items with my Interface names like Employees, Departments etc.  Now how do I link the Employee on left tab to load Employee Interface I have developed on the right section.  I dont find an option to load an existing Interface under section layout. What are my options/alternatives?  ThanksSuneetha

Hi, Have a requirement to see if there is a way to dynamically add a signature field anywhere on an existing PDF form.   I ran across this bulleted feature related to sign pdf plugin and was wondering if anyone would chime in on experience using this feature.   There doesn't seem to be any documentation for the plug-in so wanted to get input from the community before seeing if it works.       Place a new signature field anywhere on the document  (https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/sign-pdf-document) If anyone has any success stories/experiences to share  using this plug-ins feature would enjoy hearing about them before investigating deeper (e.g. does the feature work?   Any requirements on type of PDF document required, fillable or non-fillable PDF? Thanks, Bob
