Hi ramp

It depends upon which version of Appian you are working with. For example:

If you are working with Appian 16.x, 17.x or18.1 version then you can follow the below mention steps:

• Navigate to /designer and click on Processes tab
• Verify whether a column already configured(by any of your team mates) for Process Id or not.
• If no, the click on Edit >> Data Tab >> New Data >> and configure the following
  • Display Name: Process Id
  • Definition: pp!id
  • Formatting: Number
• Click on Save
• Make sure that the Show column is checked for this column created above
• Click on Save. Now you have successfully configure this Column
• Click on Search Icon (located on Top Right Corner, on the top of the instance count / batchSize) >> Input your instance Id under the Process Id column and hit Enter

 

But if you are working with Appian 18.2 or higher version then /designer is migrated to /design and hence you need to follow below mention steps to achieve this:

• Navigate to /design and click on Monitoring tab >> enable Show process details checkbox located on Top Right Corner
• Verify whether a column already configured(by any of your team mates) for Process Id or not.
• If no, the click on Go to Customizable Report link located at Left Side bottom
• Click on  Edit >> Data Tab >> New Data >> and configure the following
  • Display Name: Process Id
  • Definition: pp!id
  • Formatting: Number
• Click on Save
• Make sure that the Show column is checked for this newly created column
• Click on Save. Now you have successfully configure this Column
• Now you can search the process ID in 2 ways:
  • Click on Search Icon (located on Top Right Corner, on the top of the instance count / batchSize) of this Report which is modified by you >> Input your instance Id under the Process Id column and hit Enter
  • Or, you switch back to /design >> Monitoring >> Input Instance Number under search Field (located at left top corner) and click on Search >> Select Search ID Radio Button (located on top right corner, once after entering the instance id under search field and hitting the search Button)

 

Hope this will help you.

Thanks Alok.

Hi ramp (ramkumarp) ,

In 18.2, there's an even easier way to search for process instances by ID. In the Monitoring view, all you need to do is type the instance ID in the search box and select "Search ID" after the search banner appears over the grid. No need to navigate anywhere else or configure any columns!

See this screenshot:
