Can Appian Process Models be exported to Visio or other tools? I would like to recommend Appian as our organization standard for business process modeling for the purposes of requirement diagrams. In other words, if the process is being automated or not, Appian could be our standard for creating business process diagrams. However, this is only an option if the BPMN 2.0 Process Models that are created in the Appian Process Modeler can be exported as BPMN 2.0 XML. Tools like Visio and Blue Works Live allow import and export of BPMN 2.0. If Appian does not allow this than it is a non-starter as our organization standard.

Thanks in advance for the information.

There is no reason why Appian could not have a Analyst section for modeling BPMN 2.0 diagrams using the basic BPMN 2.0 constructs which are included in Appian. Visio, Blueworks Live, Lucidchart, and many other process modeling tools allow import and export of BPMN 2.0 XML. The diagrams created in those apps are possible in Appian but without import/export ability it forces designers and organizations to look elsewhere than Appian.
