Hi All, I am using the Advanced IDP to extract Key-Value pairs from a PDF. Even though the key - values are present in a 2 columns table, I decided to use Key-Value extraction instead of table extraction as each key occurs only once. I can see the extracted values properly in the IDP object, in the output of IDP in the process, but whenever I am assigning the values to individual variables or CDT inside a process, lot of additional semi colons are getting appended along with repetition of the main value. I could see a pattern - if the key is available in the 3rd row of the table, then 2 semi colons are getting appended before the value, if the key is in 4th row, then 3 semi colons and so on. Example: ; ; abcde; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; abcde; ; ; ; Any idea?

Hi all, We have just upgraded Appian from 23.3 to Appian 25.2 and when starting Tomcat we have found the following error in the log: [PUT], host [http://localhost:9200], URI [/user-activity-8-0/_settings?master_timeout=30s&timeout=30s], status line [HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized] {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"security_exception","reason":"unable to authenticate user [appian] for REST request [/user-activity-8-0/_settings?master_timeout=30s&timeout=30s]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":["Basic realm=\"security\", charset=\"UTF-8\"","ApiKey"]}}],"type":"security_exception","reason":"unable to authenticate user [appian] for REST request [/user-activity-8-0/_settings?master_timeout=30s&timeout=30s]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":["Basic realm=\"security\", charset=\"UTF-8\"","ApiKey"]}},"status":401} at org.elasticsearch.client.RestCli

Our team is exploring the use of the a!recordsChatField and the new smart search capability.  Our use case: Business is using a web page with lots of links to access apps (both Appian and non-Appian). Users would like to be able to find the app they need without having to scroll through the "link farm". We have built a form in Appian to provide a better user experience and would like to add an AI component that will allow users to find the link they need quickly.  We have tried using smart search but are finding it is somewhat limited and does not provide the results we are looking for, plus the text output is rather lengthy. We are looking for a one-sentence result instead of multiple paragraphs of information. We have a record that contains the list of all the apps, their descriptions, and their urls. a!recordsChatField provides much better results by providing the name of the app, its description and its url, however it would be great if in the results

What are the steps involved to migrate appian from on-prem to cloud.

Hi everyone, I’m a PhD student researching low-code development. It’s impressive to see more and more people discovering low-code and no-code tools and using them in their work. I recently completed a study in collaboration with a consulting company that provides low-code solutions to its clients. Through interviews, I learned that many people without formal software development education are now able to step into this field thanks to low-code platforms. For many, this has created new career opportunities and pathways into tech. I also noticed that consulting firms often play an important role as partners of low-code vendors, acting as a bridge between platform providers and client companies. Beyond these observations, I’m interested in understanding how developers themselves feel about working with low-code development platforms—both the benefits and the challenges. Based on the collected responses, I found Appian was one of the most mentioned platforms. I beli

Hello! When it comes to AI tools in the context of automation testing (e.g. AI generation of automated tests, AI automatically fixing broken locators after a change, etc.), what support, and compatibility from/within Appian is expected currently and in future?

Hi Team, We are using Kafka Tools plugin to utilize consume and Publish Kafka services. We can able to perform publish Kafka service without any issues. But when comes to Consume Kafka we have questions as follows, Consume Kafka service shows isSuccess output as true but it didn't received Kafka server. To find reason which log we should check? What is the difference between Group ID and Topics? whether we have to pass both as same? Deserializer Class Name field is not mandatory? if we pass "io.confluent.kafka.serializers.json.KafkaJsonSchemaDeserializer"  as deserializer it throws error like io.confluent.kafka.serializers.json.KafkaJsonSchemaDeserializer not found by com.appiancorp.cs.plugin.kafka [50] And in the process model, why TM_Transaction variable is not populated with value after consume Kafka service showing it is success?

Hi,      We want to surface/view (not store ) salesforce documents in Appian . We already have an Salesforce connected system , we uses  SOQL integrations to expose the data points . I was just wondering can we use SOSL with the same connected system to return the documents (using RETURNING Document clause in SOSL).  Not sure whether SOSL can return docs . Or we need integrations with salesforce REST api to get the documents in Appian . Our users just have to view the documents on demand. We don't want to save them as Appian docs. Can anyone worked on similar use cases . Your inputs will be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Mike 

Hi everyone, We're building a bi-directional integration between Appian (BPM) and an external multi channels systems CRM, Mobile, Kiosk, Corebank etc. We have two architectural approaches and are looking for insights or best practices from the community: Approach 1: Task-ID Driven • CRM receives a generated Appian task ID via API • CRM later calls a second Appian API to complete that specific task by its ID Approach 2: Event-Driven Integration with Correlation ID (Using Appian Events) A shared correlationId (UUID) is generated and passed between CRM and BPM. Appian subprocesses register to Receive Message Events or wait via correlation-aware logic. CRM communicates by sending events (e.g., KYC_COMPLETED, DOCS_SUBMITTED) using a unified API. Appian routes events internally using correlationId + eventType. What I'm Looking For: Is there an Appian-recommended best practice for choosing between task-based vs event-driven integrations? Are Receive Message Events and cor

In my Appian environment, I’ve noticed that some groups have UUIDs that start with SYSTEM_GROUP_ followed by the group name, instead of the usual alphanumeric UUID format.How can I logically identify or classify these groups separately from regular groups?  When I use scimGetGroup() on these SYSTEM_GROUP_ groups, it doesn’t return any group attributes, unlike the other groups with standard UUIDs.Is this expected behavior? And is there a workaround to retrieve attributes for these system groups?
