 I have a requirement to upload the excel and read the entries to populate the data into the appian database. while reading the data i need to check the valid data from integrations. For each and every row i need to call 2 integration to check</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Bulk Data Validation Using Integrations</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/72420?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 03 Mar 2020 10:43:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:c4081174-ad3c-471f-8e5a-3db1947c81a3</guid><dc:creator>Stewart Burchell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;From your description it sounds like you have a good handle on the sorts of issues that need to be addressed. The main thing is to ensure that you have means of &amp;quot;throttling&amp;quot; the processing so that you don&amp;#39;t flood the application server with process instances (which, again, sounds like you&amp;#39;ve recognised and have a design in mind to pre-empt this).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some questions about the nature of the validation integrations:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;do they have to be integrations? that is, is there any way to bring the logic/data into Appian so that this can be conducted locally? That would definitely improve the performance, but may bring other issues to solve (e.g. keeping the Appian versions in sync)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;do they have to be called at the individual row level? That is, could the integrations take batches of data, and so reduce the&amp;nbsp;number of calls you have to make?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;similarly, is there any middle-ware in the architecture that could make the two calls for you, so that you reduce the number of calls from Appian to just one per row?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
