Case1,

if the record contain the respective parameters then it can be passed in the record while adding related action itself but not when related actions are called in UIs as its only supporting Identifiers

case 2

a. Create a dummy record as expression backed record with dummy data as {Id:1 and data:null} and add your process model in it as a related action .

b. This will require to query your recordId in the process rather than sending it from interface while calling related actions and perform all your requirement in the process model.

c. In this way you can have the pop up UI functionality through any UI

If you are trying to call a related action process model, you can only pass the recordId as parameter. If you need to pass more parameters, then you should use the startprocess smart services which will give you the ability to pass as many parameters as needed.

What do you mean "start an interface"? The process you kick off would be able to start a task that gets assigned to an Appian user.

You can try calling API and in that API you can use a!startProcess() , and pass parameter which u receive in http!request.

yes, I am calling my interface via my process model via my related action
https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/Embedded_Interfaces.html#related-action
so far I am sending the recordId and that seems to be working but I also need a number from 0-9 as a parameter and that doesn't seem to be working. Is there another way to start a process model from outside Appian and get an interface to pop up?

Can you tell us a bit more about your use case? Is this specifically for an external embedded interface? What parameters would you need to pass in?
