Provide suggestions to connect Appian with Sonic s3 bucket to upload/download documents without using plugin. 

Hello,  I'm trying to figure out how to integrate an external web site with Appian. I have a JAVA war file that contains JavaScript files. The war was produced by another organization, and I expect to have occasional updates. I have the war hosted and running on its own server. What I would like to do is push a button on an Appian form that launches the web page created in the war. The user then selects different options in the popup and hits submit. The external web site produces an XML string and sends it back to Appian. Appian then displays the processed XML on the form. Later, when the Appian form is completed and submitted, Appian saves the XML to the DB. I've tried using Web Content Field. It displays the button and launches the external web page. I have no idea how to send the XML back to Appian. Web Content Fields don't retrieve data as far as I can tell. I also thought about setting up an Appian Web API for the external site to call and send the data

Hello! I'm getting this error while setting up my integration. I have a couple of integrations in my application that allows users to archive and download documents from a SharePoint and they both use the same connected system that I have in this one. The one I'm showing is for my own testing purposes. I'm using this integration to see if I can retrieve any folder metadata but I keep getting this error. The connected system says it's connected and I'm using Entra ID. My question is am I doing something wrong here or does it look like I have everything set up correctly? Trying to find out if there's something missing on the Appian side of things or if there's something missing on the Azure side.

When we execute the API Endpoint to load the data in DB, we get Generic Error Message " 500 There was an error writing to the data store"  Is there a way to capture the Actual Error message and Return it as a message instead of the above? Example:  Details: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: org.hibernate.PropertyValueException: not-null property references a null or transient value Following is the code :onError: a!httpResponse( statusCode: 500, headers: { a!httpHeader(name: "Content-Type", value: "application/json") }, body: a!toJson( { error: "There was an error writing to the data store" } ) )

Hi,  We need to get access tokens from our id provider and we had thought about using a Connected System with the OAuth 2.0: SAML Bearer authentication method but the documentation says:  "As soon as Appian gets that SAML bearer assertion, it decrypts it if necessary and signs the user in. Then, for each Connected System that uses the OAuth 2.0: SAML Bearer Assertion Flow, Appian will immediately pass the SAML bearer assertion (along with the Client ID, Client Secret, Scope, and any Additional HTTP Headers set in the connected system) to the authorization server at the Token Request Endpoint. Appian will always pass the SAML assertion unencrypted" Our id provider requires that scope, grand type and assertion must be provided into the body and we have some questions:  Where does the SAML assertion travel, header or body? Can we get the SAML assertion in some way? Can we move the scope from the header to the body? Thanks in advance

Hi all.  The Appian Designer/Plug-Ins tab shows a long list of plugins that are installed on my cloud instance. I would like to create a list of the plugins that are actually used by my application. I tried searching the forums and found several answers that suggested exporting my application then searching through the xml files to find the plugin names. After exporting my application, I found a file "/META-INF/plugins.txt". Does this list the used plugins? None of the answers I found talked about this file, but they were several years old, so its likely things have changed. thanks Matt

1. Current setup we are generating the JWT token using and external system key and the details we are stored in the Third-party credentials in Appian admin console, and we are using the JWT token to generate the token, and this approach works well. 2. Problem The external system key expires every six months. This requires manual updates to the key in the third-party credentials in the admin console. We have access to a Realtime API to retrieve the external system key dynamically. Is there a way to generate the JWT token without manually updating the third-party credentials every six months I need to build like this, I have a process first I will trigger the API to get the external system key and I will pass the key and i have to get the JWT token.

Hello, I have a use case where I need to download multiple documents from SharePoint. Currently, I need to do this in a process model and the only way I have found of doing this is by creating a loop within my process.  Unfortunately, I need to activity chain this process and by having this loop, I risk breaking the 50 node limit. My question is as follows: is there any way to download multiple documents from SharePoint using a single node within a process? Thank you
