Displaying Data

I would suggest going through at least the Beginner-level material on Appian Academy, if you haven't already, and perhaps also refer to the Appian Documentation for process flow recipes and other advice.

Your use case seems like a fairly straightforward one, and while it would be hard for anyone here to step you through the entire process, perhaps you could let us know if there are any specific steps where you're running into issues and we could offer clarification if and where necessary.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your suggestion.

Hi Divya

First, you do not need to use the pattern you are suggesting. Yes, it would work, but because SAIL is dynamic you can do all this in a single SAIL interface. I'm including the following example not as the answer (because you may have other requirements that I am not aware of), but to help you understand what is possible:

load(
  local!question,
  local!answer,
  local!listOfQandA: {
  },
  a!columnsLayout(
    columns: {
      a!columnLayout(
        contents:   {
          a!textField(
            label: "Question",
            value: local!question,
            saveInto: {
              local!question
            }
          ),
          a!paragraphField(
            showWhen: fn!not(fn!isnull(local!question)),
            label: "Answer",
            value: local!answer,
            saveInto: {
              local!answer
            }
          ),
          a!buttonArrayLayout(
            showWhen: fn!and(
              fn!not(fn!isnull(local!question)),
              fn!not(fn!isnull(local!answer))
              ),
            buttons: {
              a!buttonWidget(
                label: "Add to list",
                saveInto: {
                  a!save(
                    local!listOfQandA,
                    fn!append(
                      local!listOfQandA,
                      {question: local!question, answer: local!answer}
                    )
                  ),
                  a!save(
                    {local!answer,local!question},
                    null
                  )
                }
              )
            }
          )
        }
      ),
      a!columnLayout(
        contents: {
          a!gridField(
            label: "Questions & Answers",
            columns: {
              a!gridColumn(
                label: "Question",
                value: fn!index(fv!row,"question",null)
              ),
              a!gridColumn(
                label: "Answer",
                value: fn!index(fv!row,"answer",null)
              )
            },
            data: local!listOfQandA
          )
        }
      )
    }
  )
)
