Hi all, Is there any smart Service that create a process or create an interface like there is a expresión rule smart Service? Appian creates some processes and interfaces automatically within the record wizard when creating action. My purpose is just to create the empty objects (no logic/code inside), therefore I name them as my naming convention. Developers must implement them. Thank you

Hi, I need to call a danish web service (KMD Workzone). It uses the OData protocol, which is a protocol for REST APIs. The authentification protocol is NTLM. Problem is, I can't find a way in Appian to combine REST and NTLM: If I use an integration object, then it must use a connected system, and NTLM is not among the 7 supported authentification protocols. If I use the smart service "Call web service", then it seemingly supports NTLM, but only in combination with the SOAP protocol (it requires a WSDL). It seems that at one time the plugin WebAndXMLExtensions could do this, but it is not in the App Market anymore.  Regards, Søren Juul

Hi, As per my requirement I had to make use of the plug-in called "Twilio" for sending SMS to the users to authenticate them. I also created an account in Console Twilio in order to get the tokens to establish the connection.

Hello, I've been trying to make a dual-y chart. If I understood correctly, I had to use googleScatterChartField, but I can't see the labels of axis and values for the second y.

Hello, I'm looking for automation to validate that all plugins installed in our QA environment are also installed in our production environment. Right now we have to read through the list of plugins in our admin console but this is a manual process that we're looking to get away from. Does Appian provide a web api or anything that would allow us to get a list of plugins for each environment?

Hi Team, We have a requirement where the client tool can only upload files which are in octet format. We have exposed a web api using "upload document" template of web-api which helps client team to upload files from their systems to our Appian environment.  Can someone help me with the code required for uploading a file in octet format from external system to our appian environment using a web api. We use appian version 22.2 Thank you

Hello! I would like to send JSON payload to external API after the user completes ADD NEW CLIENT form created in Appian.  { "lastName": "John", "firstName": "Smith", "birthDate": "1987-04-26", "emailAddress": "shogun@go.com", "mobilePhone": "+60-11-12345678" } So the information provided in this form would be sent externally. I created connected system HTTP and POST integration. I suppose I need to also create a CALL INTEGRATION smart service that would send this payload externally, after adding newly created client to Appian Data Store. Am I correct? Am I right?  I don't know how to capture in the integration itself the data from a given smart service in a process. So basically now what happens is when I complete the add new client form it triggers the call integration smart service at it sends to external API hardcoded JSON data from below. Do I need to call these process variables from JSON? Am I going in the right direction or am I entirely wrong?&n

Hi, We have installed SAP JCo (Java Connector) on Appian Cloud Server, to call SAP BAPI using Sap Invoke functions provided by Appian. We are consistently facing cache issues in our environment where the BAPI configurations and credentials used with SapInvoke function does not get refreshed. Due to which we are not able to fetch updated data in proper structure. This generally happens when an existing BAPI configuration gets changed or modified at SAP end. As per our understanding of SAP JCo, it caches metadata to improve the throughput of the application. However, please note that if any changes are made to the BAPI structure in SAP, the old version will still be cached until the cache is refreshed via a server restart. We were able to find a Knowledge Base Article - KB1232 to clear the cache, but our understanding is that it is targeted for on-premise servers. I would like to know if there any other effective method that we can take to handle this cache issue, other th
