hey ganeshbabuj, 
 1. Configure Connected App in salesforce with SAML authentication with all required url like ASC url, logout url etc. of Appian org in salesforce connected app 
 2. After that take metadata certificate and IDP certificate from Salesforce connected app and configure SAML in Appian with these things and test connection. 
 3. make sure that if your subject type is username in saleforce connected app then your salesforce username should exits in appian username 
 4. After that create HTML page with the help of following link and embed in iframe 
 https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/19.1/Embedded_Interfaces.html

Thanks and Regards,

Hello Amit 
 Please refer to the Appian documentation it explains well what to do and let us know if that information is enough or you need some clarification. 
 Additionally I would suggest to take a look at the salesforce documentation, I haven’t tried this exact configuration it but it looks like salesforce Can act as a SAML identity provider. A certificate and the metadata file and some configurations in both places. 
 Here are some useful links

Hole this helps
