I wrote a blog post about data flow in interfaces.

I have this column with:
a!richTextDisplayField( value: a!richTextIcon( icon: "pencil-square-o-alt", color: "ACCENT", size: "MEDIUM_PLUS" ))
Is possible to call a child form from this one and pass row values to a CDT type parameter into child form?
I'm using CDTs no RecordTypes.
What exactly do you mean with a "child form"?
This pattern might fit your needs: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.3/recipe-use-links-in-a-grid-to-show-more-details-and-edit-data.html
Master (Parent Interface) ---> Detail (Child Interface).
Parent calls Child.
Hi.
On this link "https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.3/recipe-use-links-in-a-grid-to-show-more-details-and-edit-data.html" the pattern shows the detail in the same interface, I'm looking to open a new interface over the Parent.
"Child form" can mean many different things. Without a clear common understanding, it is tough to support you.
OK. The typical way to do that using Appian is, to use a recordLink opening in a new tab.
If this is also not what you are looking for and you just want to switch between the details and the grid, you would use the showWhen parameter to hide/show the section you need.
Sorry. My English speaking is not pretty fluent.
Is possible to use a Record link when Im using CDTs?
Well, do you have a specific reason to NOT use records?
I think it is a good idea to stay close to Appian's philosophy. And that is: Records are your business objects that have attached process models, aka record actions, representing your business processes.
Do you mind explaining what you are trying to implement?
What about over 4,000,000 récords limit on Record Types? I'm Learning and exploring scenarios.
It is there, as for now, and will probably be gone in the near future. But what are you looking for?
You can still use Records together with CDTs and Data Stores.
Do you mean unsync recordtypes or something else?
Un-synced records, yes.
Ok. Is there any documentation related for implementation? which do you recommend?
https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.3/Application_Building_Tutorial.html
Ok. This isnt unsynced implementation.
Sure, but the implementation is still almost the same. You just need to add Data Types and Data Stores to the game.
Ok.
Hi. I have found a barrier cause I cannot use unsynced recordtypes in process models and interface rule inputs variables data types.
You can use the data type for the process variables.
Hi. Appian is not showing the unsynced recordset data type in process model designer. And I cannot use the data type in interface rules input.
To use unsynced record, the approach is to first create a "Data Type" for each table and a "Data Store". Then you can use these "Data Types", not "Record Types" for PVs and your rule inputs.
Got it. Could you tell me the specifics scenarios where unsynced recordtypes are usefull? I dont get it. I hoped to use them like sync ones. Actions, filters, etc.
