Appian Community and Appian Academy are being upgraded. As a part of the upgrade, Appian Community is currently in read-only mode, and user registration is disabled until August 3. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but a more secure, stable, and performant Community experience is coming soon!
The new Appian Community launches August 3, followed by Appian Academy on August 7. During the migration, Appian Community Edition, Appian Academy, Documentation, Certifications, Instructor-led Customer Training, Partner Sales Training & Accreditation, and Forum (for Appian Partners and Customers only) will remain available.

Basically the same thing as a dictionary, but with many other uses. It's an ad hoc CDT-like thing that you define by filling it with whatever. The cool thing is, unlike dictionary, you can pass it to a process model as a process variable and do lots of other things with it. It's really cool for determining the structure the data will go into at runtime, but it does have some limits.
