Hi, Does anyone know of any plug-ins or perhaps connected system integration approach through external service which might support the capability to convert a Flattened PDF to a fillable PDF?   This can be done manually using Adobe editor.   Have a requirement to consume a PDF produced by external system which cannot be modified  which is flattened but need to unflatten form fields and a signature field.  Would prefer not to have to go down develop of custom plug-in approach. Regards, Bob

Is there any page in appian to see all the available plugins that are available in the market provided by Appian?

Hello, I am working on a connected systems plugin that needs to work with the data entities and storage within Appian. I would like to know whether it is possible to create data entities automatically through the plugin if they don't exist and read the data attributes (not only values) of entities all using the Java API. It is also unclear to me from the documentation where I should even begin to look when working with the Java API, so if someone could point me in the right direction as well, that would be great! Thanks!

Dear Appian Community,i want to call a pretty common webApi with a regular JSON request.Usually no issue. CDT/Map tojson() go for it.Just faced that a key is mandatory at the receiving end which has a "space" in it.But CDT field names and Map paramters are just working without space.To show what i mean:the API expects a JSON parameter like "Creation Date: "my CDT has "CreationDate" (so space missing) Any ideas to solve it?Still amazed that i never faced that so for.kind regards,Richard

Hi community, I have a PPT document, is there any way to convert it into PDF file ? Even converting to DOCS would be fine then I can convert DOCS into PDF easily. Thanks

I have a requirement wherein a table with some information in the columns and  one column with link for each data has to be sent as a PDF attachment over an email to a set of users. We see that the table data populates fine but the column with links when using the PDF from HTML smart service populates as a simple text not as a hyperlink.  The syntax we used for the link was "<td style='width:5%'><a href='" & fv!item[recordtype.url] & "' style='color: #0068a5;'>www.google.com</a></td>" When the rule is called the following data appears but the click here is a text not a hyperlink. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Everyone, Is there any plugin or approach to display the Realtime notification to logged in user in Appian. Example: Use case is, whenever the case created and assigned to any logged in member, should see the desktop/web notification saying case assigned to you. In Realtime users they opened the homepage,they would like to know whenever the case is assigned to particular person through desktop/web notification, so they act immediately. Otherwise, users need to keep on refresh the home screen. We thought below two approaches but see the couple disadvantages. 1. When the case is created, can send an email to user and user can enable the outlook desktop notification feature but at this movement we would not increase the emails.  2. Add the refresh interval to get the data but it is not that much of user focus. Alway need to focus on the screen. Could you please help us is there any other approach/plugins. Thanks In Advance!!

Hi all, Is there any way to convert an appian document to its base64 format?

Looking to find out how many times a interface is clicked into or initial loads to get rid of interfaces that are not clicked into. The Sail_Detail.csv should do this but for some reason the internal code is empty. Does anyone know a plug-in that can find this information or a different log?

Hi, I'm using an Integration component to call a REST API that allows to return a PDF file (the input is a document ID). In the Integration Response Body Parsing selection, I've chosen the "Convert binary to Appian object" option to store automatically the document in Appian. All works fine, the document PDF is retrieved then stored in Appian KC. The issue I meet is to deal with the error case:When the API is called with an incorrect Document ID, the Integration error output result is stored in Appian as a Json file. But I don't want this Json file to be store in the Appian KC. If I want to choose the "Return raw response body" to manually deal with the raw body response, could you tell me how may I manually convert and upload the binary content to a PDF file in Appian please ?
