Hi All, We have a UI where we call a safe link to open an External UI in the same tab. This safe link can be triggered from multiple places in Appian (Sites or Tempo). A single user can have access to multiple sites or tempo from where they can trigger the safe link. Now on the External UI, we have to call a link (link will be sent to External UI using API) to navigate back to Appian from the original location, but the problem is we do not have the browser URL from where the user clicked the safe link from. So is there a way we can find out from which site/tempo was the safe link triggered?Eg -User is on Site A -> Triggers a process -> UI has safe link -> User clicks on Safe link -> Navigated to External SiteUser is on Site B -> Triggers a process -> UI has safe link -> User clicks on Safe link -> Navigated to External SiteNow how do we know that the user was on Site A or Site B as in Sites we cannot add any parameters while calling any processNote -&g

Anyone was successful in setting up SLO with Okta? I am successful in setting up SSO, but for SLO, okta requires a Signature Certificate. And no matter what I provide (like one self signed generated using openssl, or provide the godday cert for Appian), it is not working. It says Signature is invalid. Is there any pointers please?

IDp Source: AWS SSO, Accessing Appian app. as external application thru AWS SSO SAML authentication. Could you pls suggest how do we import / upload  the signing certificate in AWS SSO? I could not find any option to upload the certificate in the "Manage Certificate" section.  Is this something that we can't do in AWS SSO whereas this is allowed in Azure AD SSO. The AWS SSO certificate which we can download does not contain the private key. My SAML Appian SP application expects to configure SAML settings with private and certificate data in the combined . pem file. In AWS SSO, I'm unable to upload / import the certificate file that I've configured in Appian application. Does it means AWS SSO SAML authentication not compatible to integrate with Appian? We've managed to successfully configure and test this with Azure AD SSO. I'm trying for alternative approaches of integrating AWS SSO Idps with Appian app. Thanks.

We have an integration object that calls an API that returns a document. So far we only needed PDF so we hardcoded the extension to .PDF. Now we can also receive a TXT file that contains JSON data in it. What is the best way for us to dynamically set the extension depending on the document that we receive? The integration team added the Content-Type to the HTTP headers but when I remove the .pdf, the document extension is set by Appian to .bin. (The txt file is getting set to .json) Any recommendations on how to best implement this?

Hi Folks, Is there a way to cache the output which we are getting from the response body of a API. So for example if we are calling the Workday API to get the details of a particular employee based on his email id.So if I pass the same email ID multiple times individually in 1 hr or 2 hr period, I will get the same result from the Workday API . So instead of calling the API and getting the response, is there any way where we can store the response for some time period and in that time if  new request come for the same employee, then instead of calling from API , it will fetch it from  cache. So it's great for performace improvement. Regards, Ghanashyam

Using code similar to the following I'm finding that record user filters are not always clearing. |populate record type user filter|Filter1|with|Value||clear record type user filter   |Filter1           ||populate record type user filter|Filter2|with|Value||clear record type user filter   |Filter2           | Watching the script execution I can see that the field is focused and FitNesse tries to do something the clear fails. Sometimes it throws the following error "clear record type user filter An error has occurred: User Filter" but there is no more details on the cause FitNesseForAppian Release v20.2.1FitNesse Release v20200501

Hi All, Below is the issue we face while usinf SFTP plugins. The SFTP smart services are used in the application to receive files and post processing remove these files using Remove files over SFTP smart service. The process runs daily thrice where the files are picked up from different folders. The SFTP credentials , host , port used are same for all folders. Initially , in production all the folders did not have files at the same time. The files came in at different times so the scheduelers receiving the files and its removal were not impacted. Now a new folder is added and the files come into these folders at the same time and the process model instance runs simultaneously for 2 folders and thats when the error occurs. Even though the PM errors out at the Remove files over SFTP with the error as - 'Error removing file in the remote server. See application server log for more details. Error Message: Specified file path is invalid. '. Actually the files are remove

We have used the plugin Move To Collab (v1.0.0) to copy files from filesystem to our knowledge center folder using the smart service provided by the plugin. However, we have observed that in some instances the smart service does not complete and the node is skipped resulting into process instance failure. The error is neither captured in process instance, nor in the server logs. The file path given as node input is a valid path (i.e., the file does exist at the given path). What could be the potential cause for this? Any help with this issue would be appreciated.
