Well, loading data to present it to the user is the normal thing. Just call that API and store the result in a local variable.
Do you see any obstacles when implementing this?
How to call the API when the user clicks on their task and the interface is loaded??
An integration that just queries data can be called like any other expression.
So where to call this expression inside the interface??, is there a page_load event within the interface itself??
This is not how interfaces work in Appian. I suggest to go through one of the interface building tutorials.
In the end, you define a local variable and call the integration to populate it.
Here some examples on how to call integrations: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.4/Call_an_Integration.html
Sure, that sounds good for now. But if we need to start a process model that call all of those integrations call to fetch data into the interface, can we start that with a local variable?
No, to start a process you need an initial user interaction like a button click.
