I am trying to implement a record picker component within a form layout. For some reason is not working the way it should be. After implementing the expression code below the search results appears to be "No results found" when I tried to search for something using the component. I have created a constant (cons!ERP_PROVIDER_RECORD) that points to the record type and a local variable to hold the selected records. What I need to do is to find a way to fetch a list of providers (which are already stored in the backend) so the user can pick them to complete the form.
Here is the expression code:
a!pickerFieldRecords( label: "Proveedores Seleccionados", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: "Escriba para seleccionar proveedores", recordType: cons!ERP_PROVIDER_RECORD, value: local!storedRecord, saveInto: local!storedRecord, validations: {} )
Please help to fix this issue.

One of the most common sources for a misbehaving record picker that I've seen is when the Record Title is missing, which defeats the type-ahead as there's no record title to display inside the picker.
It makes sense. How do I set up the Record Title?
Over in the Record Type, find the Record Title section, which displays an expressionable field. In that field, type rf! to get a list of available fields to use as the Record's title.
Got it! That fixed my issue. Thanks a lot Jim!
Glad that worked!
Hi Jim,
Hi have the same issue (no data retrieved in the RecordPicker)... but when entering rf! in the Title field I don't have any available fields displayed.Could you give me an example of what you enter in this Record Title field expression please ?
If you're on a newer version of Appian, you need to use rv! instead of rf! to find the corresponding fields. See the Records Tutorial for an example of how to set up the title.
