Step-By-Step # 5 : "The data source cannot be reached or its configuration is invalid. Please contact your system administrator."

Question

I am using Community Edition and following the Appian Developer path. In for Step-By-Step # 5 I encounter a problem with selecting the database for the "Vehicle" Record Type.

I followed all the steps1-4 and facing above change in Step 5. Appreciate any help/suggestions

You need to set up a Shared Workspace to enable this option in the Community Edition of Appian. Once you log in to the Community Edition environment and select your region, you will be prompted to fill out a survey, which will lead to the creation of a workspace. After the workspace is created, this option will appear when you create a record. 
 I am attaching some screenshots for your reference.

As in Community Edition we don't have much control over the data source setup, suggest you to send and inform to communityedition@appian.com so that Appian team can take a look.

Generally, it will not take much time, but I can see that Appian is working to restore availability. As there is no concrete information, I recommend checking every day, though it will mostly not take much time to restore.
