Hi, Thanks for your help in advance & much appreciated if someone has faced this design scenario already . Bit of background , We have a significant number of historical cases in a DB as we are decommissioning an outdated system . In a nut shell, These cases are not going to change or case count is not going to increase. case count is significant (10,000 or a million) & number of end users not too much ( around 100 ). We have a REST Api which exposes the DB (containing historical cases) mentioned earlier. I am creating a site to display this historical case data . I am planning to use record sync to load the data in to a record. As data is not going to change or increase, all I need is data load to the record, not really data sync , Can I still use Appian's record "data sync" facility? Do the "data sync" needs to be run daily ? or I can just load the data once and query the record to filter for example if the data remains static ? This is the interface

a!localVariables( local!items: { a!map(id: 1, value: "a|b"), a!map(id: 6, value: "a|b"), a!map(id: 8, value: "a|b") }, local!sortedData: { a!map(id: 8, value: { "a", "b" }), a!map(id: 2, value: { "a", "b" }), a!map(id: 8, value: { "a", "b" }) }, a!columnsLayout( columns: { a!columnLayout( contents: { a!forEach( local!sortedData, if( mod(fv!index, 2) 0, a!multipleDropdownField( label: "Item" & fv!index, choiceValues: { "a", "b", "c", "d" }, choiceLabels: { "a", "b", "c", "d" }, value: touniformstring(fv!item.value), saveInto: { fv!item.value, a!save( local!sortedData, append( local!sortedData, a!map( id: count(local!sortedData) - 2,

Hello, We are using the send File Over SFTP node and we have a doubt if we set the following attribute to true, would it take the user and the pass defined in the third party? We do not have a private key. We ask this question and we do not test it directly because in the development environment we cannot and we have to promote the environment to be able to test it but not to go up blindly, if someone had fought with this it would be of great help. A greeting and thanks in advance

Hello, I have a record that includes a filter search functionality. I want to add a Help Tooltip on the interface to indicate which columns can be searched. I prefer not to use placeholders, as there are multiple columns available for searching. Please suggest an approach.Thanks

 Business Objective: When Speakers apply to speak at one of our parishes, they supply documents to support their application to be a speaker.  Many of Speaker will apply to speak year after year.  There are three types of documents General Documents that are required and are valid for many years.  (For example their background check is valid for 5 years). Event Documents that are required for each event they are applying for. (For example the contract for the events). Optional Documents to support their application and are not required.  These could be general documents or documents for a specific event. Required documents are customized for each of the Speakers.  For example, depending upon their country, there are different agencies that do background checks with their own forms and documents. There are two areas (interfaces) where the documents are uploaded; the Speaker Interface (this is NOT a portal, as we give the speakers Appian login credentials)

I have an integration that calls an api which downloads document from external system. How can I implement a link that user can one click download the document that is returned from that api? like documentDownloadLink(), but I guess it can only be used for downloading documents that are stored in Appian? My requirement is that user don't want Appian to store the documents copy, so I can only call the api to get the document

Hello everyone, Thank you in advance for your time, me and my team are having some problems with the Advanced Rich Text Editor plugin and pasting images:Error introduction: We are facing some errors related to the use of the plugin Advanced Rich Text Editor (Vuram) (Appian Community) We believe this is due to the automatically generated base64 by the plugin when we paste the images. On large images this base64 can’t be displayed in the site and is resulting in a weird 403 Access Denied error : It seems that there is also a conflict with the a!startProcessLink component, please find more details in the Error details topic Quick context: We use the plugin’s richTextEditorField so that our users can write more personalized emails, attach images to the email’s body and send them directly from the Appian application. We then save the generated html in our database and use the Microsoft MS Graph public library and respective Appian marketplace plugins to send

I want to ask few questions related to google doc :-  I want to append value on multiples line on google doc. there is a table of 3*3 and I want to add data on each cell of table in google doc.

Hi All,We want to know how Appian licensing works. Lets say the current license is for 3 applications and 50 users. So what happens if we have built more than 3 applications and onboard more than 50 users. Also what does this 50 users mean?? Does it mean number of users who can access appian concurrently or only 50 users can be onboarded? Does onboarding more users/applications cause any performance issue to the overall application?

I have a use case to not to allow the user to download the pdf document but he should be able to view it.Do we have any possible ways to achieve this with or without the PDF Viewer in Appian?

Hello, I have a problem with the smart service ‘import csv to database’, as the column names in the CSV do not match those in the table. Is there any way to create a mapping between the two values, or do I necessarily have to create a new table that has the same field names as the csv? I would like to avoid the latter solution if possible. Thank you all.

Dear Appian Community,Working on the Step-by-Step # 5 exercises, after have completed the Edit Record List section, I saw the image displayed for all records was the generic image, I opened the Cloud DB and confirmed the Image column in table AA Vehicle is Null. Could you please let me know how can I fix this issue? Maybe running a script to load the content of the table again or something like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance,Jose Castellot

Hi,  We have a requirement that some communications between Appian and external systems have to be encrypted with mTLS. Does anyone know what is needed to generate a mTLS certificate and how to configure it in Appian? Thanks in advance

Hi all, I am writing with regards to an issue that we have found while upgrading from Appian 22.4 to Appian 24.3 in both the Dev and Test environments.We followed the procedure described in the documentation and found no issues during the upgrade process. However, when starting the Appian engines, we noticed the 3 analytics engines and the 3 execution engines were in CRASHLOOPBACKOFF state. The other engines were in RUNNING state as expected. We resolved the issue running the recovery script with these parameters: ./recovery.sh -p <password> -s <failing_engines> -ni  Then, the engines started correctly, and all the servers started up fine as well. However, the exiting process instances had disappeared from the Appian design view. Is there any way to refine the parameters used in the recovery script or another solution to recover the engines in CRASHLOOPBACKOFF state? As the same issue has happened in the Dev and Test environments we are concerned that it could happe

Hi All, I'm trying to get my automation tests to run in headless mode. <cucumber.appian.version>23.3</cucumber.appian.version> There's a section in the custom.properties to specify Chrome options #Use comma separated values ex: username=appian,accessKey=,browserName=Safari,platform=mySecretAccessKeycOS 10.13,version=11.1,name=My Safari Test#These two chromeOptions capabilities profile.default_content_settings.popups=0) and safebrowsing.enabled=true are hard coded capabilities.#You'll need to set chromeOptions to blank to override those capabilities.chrome.capabilities= 1.Has anyone had luck using above? If yes can you please share sample? 2.I've tried to setproperty,didn't work I see that setting capabilities,options and driver initialization is done in BaseFixture class. Has anyone tried to successfully override the method? Thanks!

Hi Experts, I'm trying to add validation on my Appian Portal Page which doesn't support Regex Functions and hence I have created a Web API which is validating weather entered IP is valid or not and calling it on the UI using an Integration Object, when I test the API using Postman, I receive the correct response. However, when I use Appian's Integration Object to call the same API, the response body comes back without any value.
