RE: Button When clicked, go to different interface

You need 2 flows. Stick a User Input task somewhere after the XOR, then draw lines from XOR to the User Input task, then from the User Input task to the End node. Also click on the End node and set it to Terminate. Click on the lines from Start to XOR and XOR to User Input and set Chaining to true if you want the next Form to appear right after the last one without extra steps in between. That's called Activity Chaining, and you can read up on that more in the documentation.

You'll need to pick the form for your User Input task, then set the inputs to the form. It's honestly gotten a lot more straightforward recently, and the app itself will help you do things right. Then you'll need to configure the cases in your XOR to choose either one line or the other. Labeling the lines can really help, but labeling the nodes you'll wind up on works alright by itself if they're good names.

Good luck, and welcome to Appian Community.

Given that you mentioned you already have an interface with a button, you shouldn't need to go through the Interface Tutorial. However, it might be good to revisit it just in case.

Once you have your interface working, take a look at the Process Modeling Tutorial. It even has the situation you're describing with an XOR gateway conditionally going to another form.
