Hi,We have a situation where we need to proceed to the next node when a smart node fails. Now, we have to manually start the next node and this is not a efficient way since the process will run for several hours. I tried using the timer in the exception flow but this doesn't seem to work. Any ideas on how this can be achieved to prevent manual intervention?
Smart Service used is "Move To Filesystem" under FileSystem Services. In the exception flow, I have used Timer set to 1 minute(exception tab) so it would take exception flow if the node stays for more than a minute.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Meena

Why is your node failing?
File is missing and hence the node files. So, we want to ignore the missing file and proceed to the next node to loop through the rest of the files.
why not creating a gateway before your node with an void/isnull check to skip the node if there is no file?
We are using the smart node (From FileSystem Services plugin) and giving the KC folder as input, so files if any will be moved to a custom folder in the file system(outside of Appian). Looks like file metadata is present but the actual file in the accdocs folder is missing causing the node to fail.
just to clarify, you try to move a file from outside appian to another place outside of appian?
