The page's interface contains a Record List grid (readonly) with an error. Since the grid has an issue, the interface fails to render.
Fix the grid error in the Record Type first, then the preview will load.

Everyone who is using the Community Edition is getting this error. I recommend you recreate this record or record list from scratch to avoid this issue, as Appian is taking longer than expected to resolve this issue.

This issue is not a code issue. Appian India community edition instance has some issues since latest upgrade. Here is a thread discussing the same and you can try the workaround provided by varun for the time being.

Did you complete the Community form steps from region selection till accepting terms and conditions?
Normally after completing the questionnaire and completion the terms and conditions in some time, you receive an email such as in Image 1 having W#. Can you check if you have receive something similar. That would indicate your workspace assignment is finished. Ideally after this no issues are there and I can create record type from scratch too by selecting respective W# data source and schema(Image 2).

If you have done all the above and have a active workspace then drop an email to CommunityEdition@appian.com so they can look on their end and resolve the issue causing this behavior.

Setup your workspace so that you have database selection enabled in the record type! Others are expected behavior as Appian Community Edition comes with some feature restriction.

Unfortunately this is the expected behavior.

You need to create a workspace to get access to the database, but CDTs and Data Stores are still restricted in Appian Community Edition.
Refer to the documentation below for more details.
