Hi all,  We need to validate the scope parameter in Web APIs. I've seen in the documentation that with the Appian OAuth 2.0 client the scope parameter must either be blank or omitted entirely: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.1/Web_API_Authentication.html#using-the-oauth-2.0-client-credentials-grant Can we use a third-party OAuth 2.0 client to validate scope parameter? With this authentication method, would the scope be validated internally or would we have to do it at the web API level? Thanks in advance. 

Hola buenas tardes a todos, quisiera pedirles ayuda. Me encuentro en el siguiente escenario: recibo archivos base 64 que transformo en un documento con el objeto de "integración" de appian.

Hi everybody, we need to display a "loading" interface (an image or a gif) while we call an integration (through a button, which needs to be the only user interaction) that takes a couple of minutes to complete. We tried using both refresh variables and showWhen logics but neither worked as Appian waited to complete the integration "call" before displaying anything. We also tried using a process model with an AND gate but the user input task node needs to be "attended" so it can't be used without the user interaction. Do you guys have any suggestions?

We have use case where currently we are sharing the document to external system via Appian Web API ( created through existing Appian API document download template ). External system is requesting to share the data as base64 string. We could achieve same via plugin available in App Market  ( [mention:e7b082a6b98049899e3541011e57f30e:f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07] ). I wanted to confirm what are the advantages and disadvantages of sharing document via base64 string over existing approach. If anyone used base64 string encoded method to share document, can you share the advantages, and disadvantages over the approach.

Hello,I am trying to set up an integration to post a document to a folder in iManage. This integration requires the request body to be multipart/form-data, and to pass through the document to be uploaded and the document "profile" which contains information which will be added to the document on the iManage side.below is how the integration is set up in postman: Would anyone have an idea of where I am doing things incorrectly?

we are running Gmail Poller's Connected System in Integration. This Integration returns a list of Gmail Email Id's. The TEST REQUEST in the Integation object succeeds and successfully returns a list of Gmail Email Id's. Running this Integration in a process model also successfully returns a list of movement id's. However, when this process model is executed as a sub-process, this Integration object does not return a list of ids and returns one empty item. This sub-process model does not need to and does not reference values from the parent process, as it works as expected normally when executed independently. Nevertheless, it is not clear why this Integartion node returns an unexpected value only when it runs as a child process. Can you tell me where I should check?

Hi All, I'm trying to call a web service using the 'Call Web Service' smart service. However, when I paste the WSDL URL, I receive the following warning. As a result, I'm unable to select the Service and Endpoint options. Is there a solution to configure the webservice without modifying the WSDL structure? Warning: 'The endpoint BasicHttpBinding_AAA contains a reference to an ExactlyOne policy operator which does not contain a supported policy alternative. That endpoint is not available for selection. The unsupported policies are [[alternative 1 : SignedSupportingTokens, Wss10]]. (APNX-2-4041-007).'

Hello, I'm trying to send a file from my Appian application to a remote server that has its own hostname, username, password, and key file. I have implemented the process to do this. While attempting to connect to this remote server, I have configured the file transfer configuration like this: 'type!{plugins.ps.appiancorp.com/.../}FT_Config'( serverPort: 22, serverHostName: cons!ETT_HostName, privateKeyFile: cons!ETT_SERVER_PRIVATE_KEY_RSA ) However, I still don't know how to successfully connect to the server, even though the process does not throw any errors. How can I resolve this? I'm really stuck; I can't find documentation, tutorials, or even an explanation of how the plugin works for beginners, which is a very terrible thing for such an important plugin. The problem is that the process is not throwing any errors and there's no logic to connect to the server without the username and password.
