Hi all, I have an integration that returns documents, and I am looking to have the document saved into a new folder that is created for each document. I am running into this error:  I'd appreciate any advice or thoughts. Would this be better fit for a PM, if so, what would be the recommended path of approaching this? Thank you in advanced!

Hi Team,Getting below error while trying to open downloaded word document after merging sub documents with smart service DOCX Merge: Error: Word found unreadable content in "test 1.docx". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes.Before merge we are able to download and open the single generated word doc without pop up message.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to configure Record Events for my record type (W2246AMA Vehicle) and I’m getting this warning: "You must have edit access to at least one of the applications this record type is in to generate event record types." Because of this, the Generate Event Record Types button is grayed out and I can’t move forward. Has anyone run into this before? Do I need edit rights on the whole application that contains the record type, or just the record itself? What’s the best way to resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Hi Team , While creating the robot in community edition i am getting the below error . How to resolve this error

Has anyone figured out a way to export a DMN file from the Decision Table in Appian? We want Appian to be the source of the rules, but we need the DMN model so we can execute the logic on another offline system which must get the same results as if it were run on Appian. Appian claims it uses DMN, but doesn't actually supply the DMN model...which seems odd. Thanks.

Hi,  I am using a plugin this plugin - Convert DocX to PDF Aspose.  In the script task, I am passing the source Doc Id and Generated Doc Folder Id and storing it to a process variable.In the plugin, I am passing the PV value in the "source file data list" ( Input). I am storing the output in another process variable. The PM got completed without any errors, but the output Process variable is empty. Can someone please help here. 

I have interface displaying record data in grid format. When the user clicks Export to PDF, the currently filtered results (or all records if no filter is applied) should be downloaded in PDF format.

Hi Community, In our current implementation, we're using the Send E-Mail smart service in a few process models. However, the Appian Health Check report flagged this with the following message: "Send E-Mails references a smart service that is no longer recommended for use (Send E-Mail). Please remap this node in the process model to use the latest version." Could someone guide us on: What the recommended replacement is for the deprecated Send E-Mail smart service? Any best practices or migration steps we should follow while updating our process models? Thanks.

Hi, We like to use the Kafka plugin for (binairy) Avro messages.  Are there intention to support this kind of messages. Also the plugin has an option for a custom Deserializer class, but this does't seem to be used and also the code always expects that the value is a String.  Is there an example of a custom deserializer class for a non-text based message value?  Should this be possible?  Thanks Klaas Pieter Boerema Rabobank. 

Hello everyone, So I have a process model that involves a user submitting a form, putting in details before submitting. It basically involves the writing of some details to the record type before showing a confirmation page, which just shows the user a tick button of confirmation, requiring a done to submit. I have a few issues here. Firstly, the only reason I had the done button was because I attempted to let it auto-run of some sort before closing by itself, however, I could not achieve that. Next, I settled on a done button as upon clicking it will complete the process model. However, after my users started using it, I noticed that they do not click the done button always. Due to appian's process model clean up task not including active tasks, I believe active tasks will be active till forcibly ended by the admin. I also attempted to set a timer for the task, perhaps a deadline, attempted setting a and gateway to link directly to the end node, nothing changed, I'm still u

Hello Appian Community, I am currently working with Process HQ reports, and when exporting the data, the files are automatically downloaded in CSV format. I have two questions regarding this export: Some fields that are numeric are being exported as text format. Is there a way to ensure they are downloaded directly as numeric values instead of text? In some cases, exported numbers include a strange prefix character (for example: $~118.331.052.083.617,56). Is there a recommended configuration or workaround to prevent these characters from appearing? Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support. Regards, Monica Vela,

Hi EveryoneI’m using a custom picker as a user picker to select users based on custom properties. However, I’ve run into an issue:       •     If I type something in the picker but then erase it without selecting a suggestion, the field ends up holding a garbage or null value.       •     This behavior causes unexpected results in my form/data submission. Has anyone faced a similar issue? If so, what’s the best way to handle it — for example, ensuring the field resets properly or validating before submission?

Hi team We've just set up an application that uses the Send E-Mail Smart Service. Our Health Check Report has this to say: "SAL Approve Installation (0002edb5-ade8-8000-43ed-7f0000014e7a) Node: ""Send To user"" references a smart service that is no longer recommended for use (Send E-Mail). Please remap this node in the process model to use the latest version." I can find nothing in Appian documentation saying Send E-Mail is no longer recommended for use I can find no details in Appian documentation of any Smart Service that might replace this I can't seem to find a thread in this Community that addresses this issue Can anyone assist me to resolve this?Thanks and blessings Stephen

Hi Community, I am encountering a strange issue with Record Chat. Occasionally, I receive unintended or unusual responses. The behavior is inconsistent—sometimes it occurs after a few messages, other times after just one or two, and occasionally even with the very first message. I’m unsure whether this is a bug or a configuration issue. One example, shown in the attached image, is that the conversation output includes entries formatted as 'H:' and 'A:', resembling a question and answer dialogue, which I did not configure or expect. My setup appears straightforward: I’m using fields from both the primary record and the required related record fields, passing the correct identifier. I also attempted to adjust the behavior using the additionalInstructions parameter, but this did not resolve the issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any insights into what might be causing it? Thank you in advance!

Trying to move the logic from query entity connecting to VW to Proc with input parameter and was able to create a Procedure on Maria DB .
