Second approach you can tell user to upload the xml in the system and then use the uploaded xml in your application.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.appian.com/thread/43402?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 21 Feb 2017 20:24:48 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:19e2c7ff-c2b6-4fb5-ab0d-e94fc5948aceShyam BommakantiFor quick reference: <a href="https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/17.1/Web_APIs.html">docs.appian.com/.../Web_APIs.html</a><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.appian.com/thread/43401?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 21 Feb 2017 20:24:46 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:16405af3-66a1-4c9d-81ff-094dd4955007Shyam Bommakanti@sarathbabus another option for pushing data to Appian is to use WebAPI.
