Hi team, I have one field in the database for the budget. Sometimes the value may exceed 100 crores, so for storage purposes, I am storing it as text. However, I want to compare that value with an integer. When I tried to convert it into number   in Appian, it rounds the value by default. Any idea how we can achieve exact value?

Here is the use case  Name1 is the section names value1 is the text value,when next section name starts with item2 before empty section names consider as section names with the text followed by as mentioned  in the output  a!localVariables( local!testdata: { { "Name1": "Item1", "Value1": "Data for Item 1" }, { "Name1": null, "Value1": "Different data for Item 2" }, { "Name1": null, "Value1": "Some other kind of data" }, { "Name1": "Item2", "Value1": "Another example of data" }, { "Name1": null, "Value1": "Random data like GBP 50,000" }, { "Name1": "Item3", "Value1": "Data related to an event or value" }, { "Name1": null, "Value1": "Adjustable by percentage of revenue" }, { "Name1": null, "Value1": "Premium payable quarterly" } }, local!testdataexpected output is [ { "section": "Item1", "fullText": "Data for Item 1 Different data for Item 2 Some other kind of data" }, { "s

I can't tell if this is an appian problem or a DB problem and am not sure where to begin looking for the problem. When writing to a record I get this error: I wasn't getting this error last week, which is frustrating, but I am now. As far as I can tell, I haven't changed anything that I am aware of that might cause it. The table exists in the db and the table permissions seem to be fine. Doesn't seem to be happening with other tables and I don't have access to appian's error logs. Any ideas as to what I should do next? 

Hi Team, Whether it is possible to add sensitivity level of the document in the excel document generated from Appian

Hi Everyone, Can we exit from a!forEach() loop?  I have a use case , where I need to iterate through the list of users and once the condition met ( checking for the user's organization and weight category), I have to stop iterating through the rest of the items. I need order to achieve this, I have to exit from the loop.  How can I achieve this ? Apologies for not clarifying the use case earlier. Use case is given below. Use Case: There is a list of Boxers. Each boxers belongs to particular organization and weight category. I want to select 2 boxers for the match randomly. 2 boxers must belong to same weight category but different organization. To achieve this I was trying to loop through list of boxers and fetch 2 boxers belonging to same weight category but different organization. Once I get 2 different boxers, then I wanted to exit the loop, because I got 2 boxers for the match and don't want to loop further. Note: Weight category and organization are not know

Hi everyone, I’m trying to use the Amazon S3 Download Objects smart service from the Amazon S3 Utilities plug-in in my process model (Appian 24.4) to download a PDF from an S3 bucket and save it to an Appian folder. Here’s what I’ve configured: • Secure Credential Store Key: My AWS key is correctly configured in Appian’s Third-party credentials store. • AWS Region Name: us-east-1 • Amazon S3 Bucket Name: <my-bucket-name> • Use AWS Client Side Encryption: <value> • Destination Folder: A valid Appian folder (pv!destinationFolder) • Files: Dynamically generated file key The smart service node completes without error, but • The output document variable is empty • No file appears in the destination folder What I’ve verified: • The file definitely exists in the S3 bucket (I’ve confirmed it manually) • My credentials have access to get the object • No errors are shown in the process instance

Hi Team , The requirement is to add dropdown filters to all fields between the header label and the first row in Readonly grid . Is this possible in Appian?

Requirement: How to implement a logic similar to the refreshAfter field in a!dateField as we do for a!textField? We would like the page to refresh when the DOB field is clicked again, and a different date is selected. a!dateField( label: "DOB", labelPosition: "ABOVE", value: ri!input.dob, saveInto: ri!input.dob, showWhen: cons!PARAMETER[2] = tostring(local!input), required: true),a!textField( label: "Address Line 1", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: "Enter Text ...", value: ri!input.addressLine1, saveInto: ri!input.addressLine1, refreshAfter: "KEYPRESS", showWhen: cons!PARAMETER[2] = tostring(local!input))

I'm using the "a!startProcess" to call a process model from the Appian interface. The process model takes more than 30 seconds to complete. Is there a way to increase the timeout when calling the process model from the interface.  Do we have property in the a!startProcess for this? We are trying to keep this as a synchronous process. a!startProcess( )

We are using Self Managed instance of Appian in Kubernetes. We have configured session timeout for 20 minutes in Admin console and using native login. This is working for System administrators but not working for Basic users. Do we need to update anywhere else for the same or do we need to configure this in server level.

hi , is Case Management Studio can be installed to on-premise appian servers ? Thanks in advance

Hi,  I'm trying to find the root cause to why I can't see any records in the "Data Preview" screen of a Synced Record Type. The application works normally and I'm able to push a full sync without any issues. Other records stored in the same database are available in "Data Preview". Context: The data is stored in company hosted SQL Server. Error message: Preview currently unavailable due to an error on the source   Any recommendation to logiles, or actions I can take to understand why the data isn't displaying is appricated.  Thanks for your help  

We have one record type on database View. Record type is configured with Filter applied to 3 columns only i.e. "Limit search to selected fields" GRID with Record type source is showing Data with paging=50 in UI and able to see data in next page as well. User sees data with some mandatory Input filter on selected column.  GRID is configured with showSearchBox option. Now if user is entering some value in default searchbox(this value is applied with the record filter configuration which is again on 3 columns) with record type then getting below error- An error occurred because the record types source is currently unavailable, or the query reached a timeout or memory limit.  I need to understand the sequence of the search value applied to the data- 1- Will this apply to whole data(10000 rows) available to view without any User mandatory filter or only to the data coming in the Grid(with user filter applied) for e.g. 2000 rows(with pagination 50 per page)

I'm currently practising in  appian community environment. Is there a way that I can do some hands on on CDT's and Plug Ins.

Hi All, what are the different Namespace available in CDT? Thanks in Advance.

I have a requirement to configure "Approve" and "Reject" buttons in an approval email notification. When a user clicks "Approve", it should open a new email draft with the body pre-filled as "Approved." Similarly, if the user clicks "Reject", it should open a new email draft with the body as "Rejected - Rejection Reason: ". I have created an HTML template with Approve and Reject buttons.   It works fine when the HTML template is opened in a browser. However, when I configure the "Send Email" node in the process and using the same HTML template, the email is triggered and delivered to Outlook, but the buttons appear as plain text instead of functioning buttons. What could be the cause of this issue? Can we achieve this in appian? Are there any suggestions or alternate approaches to achieve the desired functionality? What is the best practice for configuring actionable buttons in an email notification, in

Hello,I am implementing a robot that performs user validation on an online portal. Upon completing the validation, it should press the button to save changes. When I run this robotic task from the object, it works correctly and saves the changes. However, when I execute it from a process model, which runs a previous robotic task before this one, the page gets stuck, showing that the changes are being updated, but nothing is saved. The process hangs. I have already implemented mouse movements and 12-second pauses, but nothing has worked. What do you recommend doing? Could the portal be implementing some kind of validation to detect bots? Thank you.

We are facing issue like the value is Number(Decimal) when user enters - 1595739.56 it gets round of to – 1595740. Which is a concern here. Also any number which is of 7 or more than 7 digit are getting round of. We understand appian recommends the uses of ‘text field’ instead of floating point field, but this will lead to the column type changes in Database because those decimal columns can either be calculated in appian or in database stored procedures, hence as converting the column from decimal to varchar will required us to type cast them from varcharToDecimal before doing any calculation s and those are many fields which are used in calculations. Any urgent help/suggestion is really great help to me to progress.

Hi all, We are developing a custom map component using Appian’s Component Plugin SDK to render an interactive map using ArcGIS. The map rendering and logic will be handled entirely within the custom plugin. We want to display standard Appian UI components (such as interfaces using a!formLayout, a!dropdownField, etc.) on top the map rendered by the plugin. Is there a recommended way to: Overlay or position Appian UI components above or within the same space as a custom plugin component? Please find below the expectation we are looking for.
