I am having cascading dropdown inside a editable grid . I am getting data from db using cdt and storing them in ruleInput . I was facing error for oast 3 days like choice values and labels length didn't match. I tried using the a!save(ri!ruleinput[fv.index].value, save!value), in the saveInto .  the error is gone now. But I don't understand how it works.  Can anyone explain me or provide any document available it would be helpful.

Hi All,We have a start form with a main interface which is having 3 radio buttons in one child interface and and based on radio button clicked, we are showing three different child interfaces. Now when we click on the radio button, we want the data inside the interface to be refreshed. Currently data is refreshed only when whole page is refreshed. Can we use refresh variables to achieve this or any other way??

Hi, we have migrated Appian to a new infrastructure, so we are trying to align the two environments but the deploy returns errors on some recordTypes.It seems that Appian doesn't see some recordTypes even though they are there. If you click View Record List the message is:The Requested Record Type Is Not Available Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = XYSYS] at function a!recordList: Record Type {urn:com:appian:recordtype:datatype}4ce79cd7-05b5-40a0-923d-e15cc988b782 does not exist (APNX-1-4198-000). But if I search for the UUID I find it.And the record syncs with the db without error. Has this ever happened to you? Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm encountering an issue with Document Extraction in Appian Intelligent Document Processing (IDP). Specifically, I'm working on extracting fields that can contain multiple lines of text. Here’s what’s happening: I trained my extraction skill on several documents. The training report shows 100% recall and precision for the field in question. However, when I test the skill with the same or similar documents, the multi-line field is not extracted at all (like descriptions). This only happens with multi-line fields — other fields (like dates, names) extract fine. [emoticon:3c913c0db7eb4f9face51746da287257] What I’ve tried: Adjusted the label zone and verified it's correctly mapped to the field. Ensured the training data included examples with line breaks and variable-length text. Tried with both scanned PDFs and text-based PDFs. Reviewed field settings in the AI Skill configuration. [emoticon:71aee13fb1eb4feea8

Hi, We are trying to upload some files in an Interface inside a User Input Task, we already know that submitUploadedFiles doesn´t work in an Interface inside a User Input Task as mentioned in https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/user-interface/31235/unable-to-use-a-submituploadedfiles-in-site, so we have been struggling trying to achieve this use case.Just for clarification The User Input Task is in a process model used in a Site page We are using the User Input Task because it was the option we found to share some variables between a couple of interfaces inside the process model We are really new to Appian, so probably there are better ways to do these kind of things Here some info Site/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-components-multipleuploadfilemanager/13f642af_2D00_f604_2D00_496a_2D00_9560_2D00_775427969df6-283275-complete/pastedimage1745529911878v2.png Process model /resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-components-multipleuploadfile

I'm a senior application designer and developer with educated skills on classical Windows client-server applications. Honestly, I just started my learning path in Appian. Our use case: We have a well developed and stable running legacy application that uses a MS SQL Server 2019 as database backend. We want to "migrate" some business processes covered by the legacy app to Appian (cloud) as a showcase and proof of concept for our customers (at the first step no productive environment). The Appian application should use the data from the existing SQL Server database on our demo server. I already created a "Connected System" object that successfully connects to our SQL Server via JDBC. For setting this up I was using the SQL Server data source type and the JDBC connection string:jdbc:sqlserver://<our server public ip>:1433;databasename=<our database name>. The user and password properties are set to a valid SQL Server login that owns the target sche

I'm trying to build a reusable expression rule that queries a RecordType in Appian. I want to pass the fields dynamically via rule inputs to control which fields are selected during the query.

I have an editable grid where data is prepopulated. I m using pagination to show 15 rows per page. I m using the sort in the pagination to sort based on one field.

And the values I selected are showing sequentially from the top. How can I prevent the sort to be stable

Hi, We have the following requirement and would appreciate the community's support to suggest the best practice for achieving the same. Business Requirement : A process for loan is triggered in a branch (CRM system) where all the customer and loan related details are collected and then submitted to another department(Credit department) in the bank. All the UI and process related to branch is implemented in CRM, whereas credit department UI is implemented in Appian(review of submitted application happens in credit department). if any discrepancies are found in the application, credit department can send the application back to branch(CRM) and once corrected flow will continue in Appian. This return to branch/ different roles within the branch can happen multiple times at various points during credit department review Suggestion required on below approaches: Approach 1: In traditional BPM systems, we create a Dummy task in BPM to indicate the external system task(CRM), once this tas

I have a button on an interface that is used to start Process using a!startProcess in the background. Now I want the values of the field to be retained. Once the process the completed, all the local variables are refreshed to empty or null values. How do I retain these values. For other fields I am using ri! but for a particular values that I am having operations on in the interace I am bound to use local variable here. Am I missing something here? I tried using rule inputs, but the usecase requires me use a local variable here. Also tried saving this to an ri! and onSuccess saving back to local! but that didn't help. Any help or direction that I should be looking towards to solve this?

I want to assign a task to another user, and Appian sends an email to notify them. I'd like to configure the email to add a specific body. Do you know if this is possible? As far as I know, it's not, so I've unchecked the "Notify task assignees of the new task via email and mobile push notifications, if applicable" option and then added a smart email sending service. I'd like to do this in the same user input task. Thanks in advance.

Are there any plug-ins available to run the given commands on the Appian server level?A little background on the requirement, we are maintaining an on-premise Appian instance and whenever we need to un-archive processes we need admin's help in executing the necessary commands on the server level.We are thinking of automating that , for that we are checking, if there are any plug-in's available which can execute the user given commands on the server level. Thanks in Advance.
