I've been doing the Appian Task Report Tutorial for a while today and I just wanted to report a mistake in it. In the Format the Status Column tab it gives the following code:
a!forEach( items: local!columnData, expression: if( local!configuredFormatting = "TASK_STATUS", ... ...
However since local!configuredFormatting hasn't been defined I think this should be:
with( local!configuredFormatting: fv!item.configuredFormatting, a!forEach( items: local!columnData, ... ...
I'm also a little confused that it seems to have cut off preemptively when defining the filter without showing the code. I haven't been able to find a way to do this without assuming the column layout of the report analytic results, this is even called out in the tutorial previously when it mentions how hard coding is bad. What is the correct way to do this?

Where they have:
local!report: a!queryProcessAnalytics( report: cons!MY_TASKS_REPORT, query: a!query(pagingInfo: local!pagingInfo) )
you'll want to the filter on the status column in the QPA like
local!report: a!queryProcessAnalytics( report: cons!MY_TASKS_REPORT, query: a!query( /* don't filter if 0, which is the defauly value of the variable on load */ filter:if(local!statusFilter=0,{}, a!queryFilter( /* c5 is the status column in the tutorial I think */ field:"c5","operator:"=",value:local!statusFilter ) ), pagingInfo: local!pagingInfo ) )
I didn't actually run through the tutorial, so it might have some bugs but this is the direction I would go.
