So far, I have only been working on training cases or debugging existing projects, so please bear with me if this is a newbie issue. I have a training data set of various documents (as JPG and PDF) of different kinds, and by certain features (like prevailing color, repetitive layout) I intend to classify them (e.g. invoice type 1, invoice type 2, not an invoice). In a 2nd step, I would like to OCR certain predefined areas of each document and extract e.g. the address of the company sending the invoice and the date.

Meta info like upload timestamp, user, original file name should be persisted in a (Appian) database The file should is then submitted to google cloud which should do the classification step, and deliver back the label to Appian to be saved in the database.

I built an integration using Microsoft Graph so I'm limited in retrieving 100 records per request. I know I need use the @odata.nextLink in the next GET call.

Do you know if this is possible, and if so what's involved? Is there an Appian Node module available?

We would like to migrate data from various applications (eg java , Oracle etc) into APPIAN using an ETL tool. Please let us know which tool would be a best fit in this case. Is Informatica Power Center compatible with Appiian .If not ,do suggest other tools.

We have a script task that calls a rule within which we make a few calls to some integrations and then process the returned data and save into a PV and then the flow continue further.now the problem is the API catering us with the data is not a stable one and fails sometimes causing the script task to fail. I want to implement a loop around in the process model where I should be able to loop back to the script task and retry executing. how do we approach this problem. I want to reduce human intervention here as much as possible.
