Hi all,I have the following problem with this web API integration: if I make the POST call on Appian it works correctly, but if I try to make it outside of Appian (ex: from my computer's prompt) it gives me the following error: 401 check credentials. For the POST call I used the curl command using as url the one written in the web api.I attach screenshot of my API call on Appian and the settings used. Instead the GET calls I can do them correctly. Thanks in advance!

Hi, We have a requirement to implement the stripe hosted checkout for our application. To get a callback from the stripe once the checkout session has completed, We have created a webapi in appian and provided the endpoint in the stripe's webhook dashboard so that once the checkout session is completed Appian webapi is called. It seems like we cannot pass the API key for the appian webapi as a header when the stripe invokes the appian webapi so the authentication doesnot happen. The webapi works fine when triggered with Postman.  Is there any way we can resolve this issue?

Hi Team, I need a plugin having capability to convert DOCX to PDF format. I tried below available plugins for my requirement but I am unable to get any OPEN-SOURCE available for this.  advanced-document-templating-1.0.12.jar (It is not converting complete data. It only shows only picture format data to convert DOCX to PDF not shape format) dynamic-document-generator-2.0.4.jar (It is not converting complete data. It only shows picture format data to convert DOCX to PDF not shape format) convert-docx-to-pdf-(aspose)-2.0.10.jar (It is a paid License) Out of these plugins, convert-docx-to-pdf-(aspose)-2.0.10.jar this plugin  have the capability to convert DOCX to PDF but paid license required. So if you can suggest any other plugin which is available on Appian AppMarket to use for converting DOCX into PDF. (That should be Open Source)

Has anyone successfully used JWT (JSON Web Token) to integrate with another system? Is Appian able to decode a JWT? It is necessary to use a plugin?

Can someone confirm this please?

Hi, I have been using the Deprecated Export SQL to Excel Smart Service for a document download functionality. When the process model is initiated back to back like twice, or randomly out of nowhere with even the first try, the smart service gives this error and the process model fails: "The following error was raised by the Export to Excel function: ORA-01843: not a valid month".  I did an analysis on the SQL code, it works on the database and I believe it should be fine. In the SQL code, I have to_date function and I am comparing two dates with different formats such as MM/DD/yyyy and yyyyMMdd. I am wondering if anyone else is facing a similar issue and what would be the possible solution?

Hi guys, we have the requirement to start an Appian process via API from an external system and redirect the user to the url of the first task of that process. I tried to achieve this in the following way. We created a process model and activity-chained the first user input task with the start node. Then we created a POST api and start the process with a!startProcess and we valued the onSuccess parameter of that rule like this: a!httpResponse( statusCode: 200, headers: { a!httpHeader(name: "Content-Type", value: "application/json") }, body: a!toJson({ taskUrl: a!urlfortask( index(rule!LM_getTaskDetailsByPid( pid: index(index(fv!processInfo, "pp", null), "id", null) ), "taskId", null) ) }) ) where rule!LM_getTaskDetailsByPid is a rule that, given a process id, retrieves the id of the active task of the process in the taskId component using a task report and query analytics. Unfortunately we noticed that sometimes this fail

Hi all, I'm trying to finalize the integration approach for Appian cloud with AWS RDS Sql server. It seems there are two options available. 1. Private Link 2. Ip Sec Site to site VPN connection (VPN Tunnel). (Also I understand Appian cloud does not support VPC peering, however I could not find the reason behind this. ) Private link cons: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/Access_Customer_VPC_using_AWS_PrivateLink.html "RDS is not officially supported behind a Network Load Balancer; therefore, if you would like to connect to RDS environments over AWS PrivateLink, you will have to employ one of many workarounds to create a VPC endpoint service in their VPC." It seems Ip Sec VPN not required to update the DNS of the RDS instance. Still bit confused if there any other advantages of using Privatelink than VPN tunnel? Could you please enlighten me on this? Thanks.

Hi Team, I have a requirement of calling different integrations in one PM node depending on few conditions. The response of all integrations are saved as a JSON file and usage of integration is "Modifies Data". Call integration smart service does not work as it does not have the privilege of setting up integration depending on conditions. Also calling integrations in script task/ER using rule! does not work as usage of integration is "Modifies Data".  Do we have any other plugin or smart service to fulfill my requirement?
