We need to integrate Appian on cloud  with an authentication web page, which works as a reverse proxy.

For our project we currently have SAML set up to create users based on a single AD group. We want any users belonging to a handful of AD groups to be added to various Appian business groups. I decided to make a pm to add or remove group members, but don't have a way to query AD. We cant seem to find a way to query AD aside from using LDAP(my understanding is SAML cant be used with LDAP).  Is there  way to query AD with LDAP without fully committing to using LDAP in the Appian Admin console? Something like an integration/webapi to query AD with LDAP without fully commiting to using LDAP from the admin console.

In short, is there a way to use the Deployment Automation Manager to run a flyway repair command to recover from failed DDL executed via Flyway, or is there anything planned for a future version of the plugin to allow this? Some more background: I have been through the documentation of the Automated Deployment Manager here: https://community.appian.com/w/the-appian-playbook/198/deployment-automation Using what is documented, I have been successful in using the `-flyway_path` and `-ddl_ds` options to deploy database changes to an appian instance hosted by appian cloud, against the underlying MariaDB. In the process of proving the above, I learnt that MariaDB does not rollback DDL when it rolls back database transactions. As a consequence flyway leaves the flyway_schema_history in a state that requires manual intervention and that blocks further flyway migrations until a repair is done. Flyway has a documented way from recovering from failed migrations, which is

Hello, I am upgrading a web API that was created sometime ago, it has all the process nodes in one very big process. I have managed to split it up to smaller sub-processes successfully, but the thing is that after splitting it to multiple process I started to add more functionalities (as this was the main goal in the first place), but once all the new functionalities were integrated the web API started "act out" or become unstable, where the web API sends a response back before the whole process reaches an end and before the "response body" variable is filled so I keep getting an error saying that function toJson() can't convert null data, I should mention that I have all of my nodes in all of the processes and sub-processes chained. my question is: is there a resource limit or time limit (keep in mind the API requires about 1-3 seconds to complete) and if so how can I modify this. ------------------------------------------------------ helpful screenshot

I pulled the data from Big Query's data source using the HTTP Get Method it works I was able to translate the data to Appian's formatData is displaying Now with the Expression editor, would this be the Data side of things, Will I be able to set the variables for the data in there and make it in such a way that every time bigQuery data updates a sepcic data it will update into Appian. Can I do the same thing with pushing the data too, have the POST Method set up with a process Modeler to push data that has been updated in Appian to BigQuery?

I managed to create a connection to BigQuery's API, however, How would one go about pulling and pushing data between BigQuery and Appian?

We have MS Poller configured for one of our application. We noticed that MS Poller smart service is not able to ingest .MSG files as an attachment, however associated mail is ingested. (Email attachment inside another email).  Kindly assist.

I have managed to get the API to successfully import data from Big Query, However, I am struggling to get the data's to display in the Data Previews. I have created the rule!Pulling_Data().result.body.rows.f along with the: createdictionary( {"ClientID","Client","Project","Developer","Hours"}, fv!item.v ) so that the rows are split into columns, however, although the test is successful with this output. There is no data in the "Data Preview" Is there a way around this, or something I am doing wrong that is now allowing the rows to display?

Does anyone have any experience in using the Azure File Service / Azure Blob Service ?We are currently creating a file within Appian and move it to an on premise server using SFTP. At some point in the future, the on premise server will be replaced and we have the need to move the file to an Azure Server. We've been advised to make use of the above service but are struggling to get this to work.Either the requests we are building are incorrectly formatted or it's not recognizing the document object at all. It would be great to know if anyone else has a solution, the examples i've found, are not Appian specific and so far haven't helped ...

Hi, I am trying to export SQL to Excel but the base template would be XLSM due to macros which will hide/show columns based on certain rules. The actual file being generated by the plugin is XLSX and due the file file containing macro excel throws file corrupt error. If I manually change the generated file extension to XLSM everything works fine. Is there a way to change XLSX to XLSM within Appian or contain macros in XLSX template files. Thanks.
