Appian Family,  Here is my Interface -- JR_InterfaceName 1) File Upload field in an interface >> Define the Target Folder with all correct permissions. 2) Submit Button: "submit" set to true. I have 2 scenarios here 1) Just the interface by itself is just working fine when I upload the file and click submit. It gets save to the target folder. 2) When the same interface is either called from another interface as rule (rule!JR_InterfaceName) it doesn't work. The file is not saved to the target folder. I am pretty sure the document object is there but it's just not available to either save in a target folder or for anything else. What is it that I am missing? is it an Appian shortfall/Issue? I am assuming that this is very basic need for almost everyone. 3) Just to play around further I called a Process Model using "saveinto" property of the button passing some dummy variables and the Document Uploaded from the upload control, The PM got call

Hello Devs, I have created a webAPI of template type : "StartProcess". Now this webAPI is starting the process when triggered but I want to open a form as a result of it. How can I achieve that?  Do I have to handle it inside body ? inside httpResponse of onSuccess? how to achieve that. Here is my current code for the webAPI: a!startProcess( processModel: cons!PFM_APPIANFORMTOLAUNCHROUTER_PM, processParameters: { formToLaunchLabel_txt: http!request.queryParameters.formToLaunchLabel_txt, formToLaunchParameters_txt: http!request.queryParameters.formToLaunchParameters_txt, processInstanceAppianId_int: http!request.queryParameters.processInstanceAppianId_int, }, onSuccess: a!httpResponse( statusCode: 200, headers: { a!httpHeader( name: "Content-Type", value: "application/json" ) }, body: a!toJson( { taskID:getactivetaskidsforprocess( fv!processInfo.pp.id ) } ) ), onError: a!httpResponse( statusCode: 500, headers: { a!httpHeader( name: "Content-Type", value: "application/jso

I have Room (roomID column) and a Key (with keyID, roomID, and keyDescription columns) . A room can have multiple keys. I setup a one to many relationship between the Room and a Key using the roomID.  I used the Room record to populate a gridField. The search is not returning anything if I put an information that should match the keyDescription. I have the code below. I am only after for keys that are active which is one active key per room. Even if I remove the filter in the code, it does not return anything. Is this expected for a One to Many relationship?    { a!gridField( data: a!recordData( recordType: <room_record>, relatedRecordData: a!relatedRecordData(relationship: '<roomRecord-keyRecord>', filters: { a!queryFilter( field: '<keyRecord.isActive>', operator: "=", value: true ) } ), columns: { a!gridColumn( label: "Room ID", sortField: 'roomRecord.roomID', value: fv!row['roomRecord.roomID'], ), a!grid

Hello, I would like to know if there's a way to detect the User abandoning a session. The issue is that there are User Input Tasks that I lock to specific users when they accept them. I have a problem with the case where the User exits the form not by clicking the "EXIT" button, but by just closing the browser tab, which leaves the process running until timeout and the task remains locked. Is there a way, other than the timer, to determine whether the User had abandoned a session on a form? Thank you.

The input "Records" cannot insert or update a record which is referring to different referenced records via propostaId at the same time. To create a reference to a related record, include either a relationship reference or the required common field value for "propostaId". Location of conflicting changes: GC Document [1] = a!forEach( pv!documentos, a!update( fv!item, 'recordType!{GC Documento .fields.{389973d7-a3f2-4ce3-aafb-9c2021e72ce9}propostaId', pv!idProposta ) ) I can't find anything about this error at all

Hello, I have a template of type .docx in which certain checkboxes must be shown as 'Checked' or 'Not checked' depending on the value of some variables. I also have to, in case X variable exists, I have to show a block of the document and not show it if it is empty. I was trying to use MS Word 2007 from template but although it takes the fields correctly with the ###, I don't know how to implement those "if()" conditionals and make it work. I have also been looking at the Docx from dynamic template smart service of the 'Advanced Document Templaiting' plugin but I am not sure how to do the XML part and if I could do those "if()" with it. Has anyone had this problem or some solution available?Thanks in advance

Hi Everyone, I need to implement functionality to read, write, and update specific JIRA tickets through an integration between Appian and JIRA. For this, I'm referring to the JIRA API documentation: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issues/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-get   To authenticate, I plan to use OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code Grant) as outlined in the documentation here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/oauth-2-3lo-apps/   I have already created the necessary app in the Atlassian Developer Console for OAuth 2.0, and I successfully set up the connected system in Appian. However, I'm encountering an error while trying to create the integration system. Could anyone please assist me in resolving this issue and help me complete the Appian-JIRA integration?   Thank you!

Hi Everyone, We need to manually validate the accessibility of a few styled text editor components before enabling the document export. While this can be done using browser extensions or accessibility testing tools, the client wants to perform the check within Appian. I would appreciate any insights on whether there are any Appian community-supported plugins or reliable APIs that can help achieve this. Thanks!

Hi Team, has anyone Integrated Appian with Jira ?

I need to validate the checkboxes when the submit button is clicked, based on a specific condition. There are four checkboxes, and before submitting the form, the user must check at least one. However, instead of using FormLayout, I’ve created the form using CardLayout and local variables. I’m looking for suggestions on how to improve or streamline this approach.

In Case Management Studio, tasks can be routed based on decision in decision type tasks and using dependent. But I want to trigger/route from one task to other based on case field data.

Hi All, I have installed the Content Tools plugin and am using the getcontentobjectrevisionhistorydetails function to retrieve version details. I am passing a UUID and filtering the results by the modifiedOn date. However, I am encountering an issue where the modified date field is not correctly reflecting the changes made. For example, when I select the modified date as 2/6/2025, the result from getcontentobjectrevisionhistorydetails is null because it is returning same as created date value, but it should give latest version date value which highlighted in version details below. This can be seen in the information below:  creator "Balavamsikrishna_vinnapala@contractor.amat.com" (Text)              createdon "1/29/25 AM GMT" (Text)              modifiedon "1/29/25 AM GMT" (Text) Version details of one object Created 2/6/2025 10:08 AM by sala vamsi Krishna Vi... 1/29/2025 l

Hi, We have a record type based on a service. Data syncs every morning 3AM. Today morning data synced well. We are using this data on a UI. The issue is, CaseInvalid on UI. When we look at the cause of it, we found the service is down. Is it mandatory to have the backed service up to use the already synced data from Record type to be used on UI? Thanks, Keerthi

HII'm trying to count the number of records in the data entity HVSDC_PlanesMejoramiento_Entity that meet a specific filter on the field CodigoSIRECISujetodeControl.
