We have done a workaround to handle this case. If anyone has a better solution please share it.

1. Read the data from Excel ( readexcelsheet() ).

2. Check that the expected column has been returned, before pushing it to the table.

3. If it is empty, return the flow back to the screen, and will show a validation message manually.

Hope it will work for you.

Hi Mohammed, you can read the file using readexcelsheet or readexcelsheetpaging but those functions also stop reading once they detect empty row. So, better check the file before uploading

Hi ,

If appian detects one empty row, then the node stops there from writing into db. So please dont leave empty rows in the middle
