RE: Issue with URL Truncation When Accessing Cloud Database from Appian

I have no assumption that the Cloud DB in an Appian Cloud instance is accessable from a plaintext URL outside of clicking the official "Cloud Database" link from the 9 Dots menu in Designer.

Appian clearly does some crafty behind-the-scenes session verification to ensure that only proper users in a current login session get access to PhpMyAdmin (the software front-end we see in the DB management console), as evidenced by the fact that it stops working until you open a completely new session if you leave it until it times out.

Now, if you copy/paste some URLs when you're in a current session, SOME things MIGHT work, but again, there is no assumption that anything other than in-page navigation is officially supported in any sense.
