Hello, I have a question about SharePoint integration. I have created a connector between appian and sharepoint, where I am trying to use one of the possible operations which is adding a document. To add a document it is required to provide the destination path of the folder and also the document itself. The problem is that despite the fact that I got write and read permission from the administrator for all objects on the page, I still get error: SharePoint returned a 401 HTTP error error-result-guidance SharePoint returned the following information: A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (?). Tank you, Michael

I am trying to fetch document metadata from sharepoint Integration which I have bult using pre built sharepoint connected system by appian.

Hello! I am playing around with the PDF tools plug-in and I was wondering if there is a way to create tables using the Create PDF Smart Service. And if so, do you have any example? Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone,  I recently attempted the Appian L2 certification but unfortunately did not pass. I've been studying using Appian Community videos, documentation, and the official exam objectives. To further enhance my preparation, I'm seeking specific documentation links and topics that are directly relevant to the L2 certification. This will help me verify if I've missed any crucial topics. Additionally, I would appreciate any recommendations for mock exams or practice scenarios focused on senior developer-level questions.  

I have added the Wyndhamm Power Outage app from the App Catalog, then I need to add my user to the Technicians group but this group doesn't exist. The Appian Community Edition is on a later version - 24.4 - and the exercise is based on 24.2 version. In Security Summary a warning is detected: "Missing administrator group. No basic users will be able to administer these objects, which includes editing their security or deleting them".

Hi team , In SFDC integration , we are using SOQL query in operation to fetch some data for a given financial id , need to understand how to write the query to fetch data for multiple values involved.Current implementation - concat("select Id, Name, Reference_Type__c, System__c, Seq__c from SRS_Service_Request_Related_Order__c where RO_Service_Request__c " ,"='",ri!serviceRequestNo,"'");How to write above for fetching data for multiple financial id's involved , ri!serviceRequestNo will be of multiple type of string . Tried to replace above = with IN operator in where clause, it shows malformed SQL as integration error.Thanks

I have an odd problem.  I have a read only grid what shows a value one way on the interface, but differently in the excel download. Here is what you see in the interface vs the excel spreadsheet.

Hi ,  We need to implement a requirement that limits the number of concurrent sessions per user. For example, if User A logs in through Session 1 and then attempts to log in on another device via Session 2, Session 1 should be terminated. Ultimately, we want only one active session per user at a time. The "Limit Number of Concurrent Sessions Per User Account" setting will allow a minimum of two sessions, but instead of terminating the first session, it will trigger an error when attempting to log in with a new session. is there any way to achieve this functionality? . The Application is on premise 24.4

Ran into an issue where any writes to record A were failing because record B had a sync issue. Record B was the Event Type Lookup for Record A, which was why record A writes were failing. The error in our logs is below: It sounded like the issue here: (+) Appian Community, however the difference was that our scheduled daily sync for record B passed just that same morning. No updates were made to record B, and no new data was added to record B recently enough to cause the issue. In addition, while there was a warning icon next to Sync History for record B, there was no history of any failed syncs, and once I manually synced, the error and issue went away. I'm not sure what happened how to go about checking what kind of invalid data popped up. Anyone ran into this before? TIA

Hello everyone, I am working on a project and need assistance with segregating output values. Specifically, I want to segregate the values and only retrieve the ones corresponding to a particular column. Can someone guide me on how to achieve this or suggest a solution within Appian to isolate the values from a specific column? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Just wanted to know whether Appian Market is shrinking? Looks like we have fewer Appian openings in job market these days? What is community experience on this?

Hello Community, We are currently using Appian for BPM-related processes, but recently we have started utilizing Appian as a backend service to handle multiple API requests in one of our services. We've defined REST services in Appian, and our clients are now calling these APIs, essentially treating Appian as a web server. However, we are facing some performance challenges, including timeouts and long response times. We also conducted load testing, and the results were below our expectations in terms of performance under heavy loads. My question is: based on your experience, is Appian designed to handle high API request loads in this manner (i.e., functioning like a web server)? Should Appian be used for such purposes, or should this approach be avoided due to potential limitations in handling large-scale API traffic? Any best practices, optimization tips, or insights on the suitability of Appian for this use case would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

I have a Record Type with this "Sync Expression": if( a!isNullOrEmpty(ri!idRecord), {}, a!queryRecordType( recordType: 'recordType!{5608cfad-fc67-4a81-93b5-722c9b55f2c5}MIN Prueba API', filters: a!queryFilter( field: 'recordType!{5608cfad-fc67-4a81-93b5-722c9b55f2c5}MIN Prueba API.fields.{af91da05-b274-48ee-b4f1-c7332fac38ff}id', operator: "=", value: ri!idRecord ), pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(1, 1) ).data) ,where idRecord is an Integer rule input.

Hi, I am working through the developer course and I am up to the Query Your Data part. In this section it references a record AA_Get Vehicles that was meant to be created earlier, but I can't work out where this was created?

Hi everyone, I’m running into an issue with one of my process models in Appian. The process is supposed to trigger automatically based on a record event, but sometimes it just doesn’t start. There are no errors in the logs, and when I manually start the process, it works perfectly. I’ve already checked the record event settings, confirmed the security permissions, and verified that the process model is published and active. Could this be related to caching, background job scheduling, or something else I might be overlooking? Thanks!
