【Error】Maven Install Error

Hi motoyay3833,

I recommend install maven if you are going to use Java Libraries in order to create the bot. Otherwise, Low Code actions is  very complete and enough to start building bots.

Hi Jesus Perez

Thank you for your reply.

I understand that installing Maven is to create the bot. However, I can't install Maven.

So, I would like to know how to install Maven and What means an error message which popped up.

Hi Jesus Perez

I see my previous message has mistake. So, I send corrected message.

Thank you for your reply.

Hi!

I would like to clarify:

1.- Indeed, the installation of maven is to create a robot or part of its functionality in Java. You can check how it works here:

docs.appian.com/.../develop-java.html

2.- If you are not going to use JAVA for the creation/coding of the robot, you can SKIP this step.

The reason is: You can implement any automation strategy via Low Code or using plugin available  here:

https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket

Now:

 it seems that the problem you have with the configurator is connectivity (Time out) when you try it to download, so:

1.- Try one more time or check firewall, proxy, etc. 

I have done it on my own and the urls used for the download are correct..

2.- If it does not work, You can also do it manually:

2.1 You can download it from here:

https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi

The version you are going to install is 3.8.6

and the complete  instructions for installing are here:

https://maven.apache.org/install.html

That basically is:

a.- Download and Extract Maven Zip File

b.- Include ‘bin’ directory in PATH Variable

c.-Verify Maven Installation 

   c.1 Type mvn -version in command prompt and hit ENTER.

Let me know how it went.

Thank you for Answering.

I was trying to do below and saw step "Maven" successful.
a.- Download and Extract Maven Zip File

b.- Include ‘bin’ directory in PATH Variable

c.-Verify Maven Installation 

But, I have what I would like to know about next step.
Could you tell me how to find "Repository URL" and "Appian User Name" in appian.
By the way, I am using an Appian Community Edition site.

Thank you.

Hi:

For this last step you must follow the steps defined in the documentation https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.4/rpa-8.6/custom_code/configurator.html#maven-settings 

I will try to help you:

- URL to the Appian RPA console's repository

For example, If your Appian community site is https://yuod.appian.community the repository's URL is https://yuod.appian.community/rpa/repo/ 

- Appian username

Your username used to login to Appian's site

- Maven API Key

In the Appian RPA console, the settings icon is located in the upper right corner. When you click on the wheel, the "Refresh Maven Key" option appears. By clicking on it, the new key will appear ( a string longer than 70 characters )

Once you enter these 3 values and click OK, the maven configuration will take a while to finish. 

Hi:

Thank you for reply.

I would like to verify about URL to the Appian RPA console's repository

My Appian community site is below.

In this case, must I input "https://mnvk.appian.community/rpa/repo" in URL to the Appian RPA console's repository?

Thank you.

Yes

I got it
