Hi, As the log files are generated in Appian and we too can view and download them. But I have a doubt about a few. Can you please solve them? I listed my questions here:     1. What is Appian Default log clean-up configuration?     2. What is the log generation frequency?     3. As the log files are generated and stored, do they delete automatically or can I delete them manually?  Thanks.

Hi All, If we go with the Appian Cloud Database Encryption,(https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/23.2/Appian_Cloud_Database_Encryption.html#default-encryption-for-tables) 1.  What is the performance impact - the article mentions small performance impact. Has anyone done this and what was the impact on performance(specific in milliseconds,seconds)? 2.  We have views defined in application which are used to display some dashboards on UI - will these be impacted as well? 3.  As per article,the phpMyAdmin will continue to show data as before encryption so how do we verify that encryption is working correctly

Hi! I´m trying to update a value (recepcionado = true) by clicking a button in an interface (button --> changes a field of the record to "true"). I created the interface and the rule input (record, from my record type) changes its value correctly, but it´s not saved. I did a process model to save the records, but when I try to use the write records component, the following message appears: ID pedido is my primary key in this record type. The interface (process start form) is a summary view for each ID_pedido, so I don´t know how to fix this error. When I run the process, even though the write records fails, my process variable (recepcionado = true) is saved What can I do?

am getting this error in PM, but i didn't find the issue.. i guess it's in user input node is throwing the warning. can anyone tell me what might be the issue

Hello, Does Appian allow for backwards compatablility with applications OR objects? I put one interface object in a package, and tried to import it to another appian environment that was not running the current version. I got another error displaying this: Is there something wrong with the object itself or does happian just straight up not allow backwards compatability?thank you

How does appian generates valid web address link in portal? what happens in the back-end?can we generate valid web address using SAIL?

Hi! I was trying to create a button in an user interface. This button should change de value of the field "recepción" (boolean) to "true", and save it into the record type ("CPF_Maestro_Pedidos). With my configuration, I can pass the "true" value to the rule input (record) associated with the record type, but I´m doubting about which is the best way to save (overwrite) the value into the record. Also, I don´t know if I should create an action associated with the button or not.  Additionally, the interface is a record view interface.  Options I thought: 1) Use an expression inside the button code (like WriteRecords) to overwrite directly from here --> ¿how would be the structure? 2) Make a process model and use this interface as the start form and use write records component. The problem is that when I try to do that, an error appears (rank ---> data inputs). But the variable "recepcionado = true&qu

When I create a group using the `Create Group` smart service, it inherits the security from the Parent group configured. In addition to that it also adds the initiator as Administrator in the Security. Is there any way to remove that in the process and not manually?

Hi all, I have a use case where we want to start a process (process model independent of parent process) in different Appian environments from its parent process model. So we need to accomplish an action in appian environment 1 and appian environment 2 once certain actions are completed in appian environment 3. PM in appian environment 3 should trigger PMs in Appian environment 1 & 2 upon its completion, we cannot use web API or integration here. So I wanted to understand if we can make use of 'start process by email' option to start multiple process which are in different appian environments. Also if we have any other better approach for this scenarios? Any suggestion here much appreciated. Thanks, Preji

Hello! How can I make a query (it would be based on an id introduced by the user in the start form of the process) to a record and save the value to a process variable, in order to use it further in the model?

Hi! I´m trying to make a logic between a value entered by user in my process model and a related field (linked by relationship). But the logic isn´t working and I dont know how to pass the relationship in the model (as I do easily in the interfaces). In the first "write records" the relationship appears in the node inputs But then, when I make the logic in the XOR, the relationship does not appear. Even if I put it manually, the logic fails. What can be causing that? 

Hi! I am facing a problem in my process model. The fact is that, when I run the process for the first time, the fields introduced by the user (interface from start form) are saved correctly. But when I finish the process and I try it a second time, the values of the process variable are not overwritten ( they are correctly written in my record, but it is like they are not saved in the process model, so all my logic runs according to the first time introduced fields). I have some captures of the problem: Fields introduced for second time  But when you search in process variable, the recordFact fields are not updated The most confusing thing is that, even though it seems they are not saved correctly, the updates appear in my records Any help would be useful Thanks a lot

Hi! I have created an app in which the user enters some purchase order fields, and one of them is a PDF file, saving each file that is uploaded in a constant folder of documents. When I end the user task, the document is saved correctly in the folder.  But the fact is that I want that the exact file which the user uploads (related with a Purchase Order ID), to be shown in the summary view for each Purchase Order ID. By now I can upload a the same static PDF for all the summary views, pointing to a constant. But I would want to associate the PDF with its order and show the correct one for each PO. How can I do that?  Thank you so much for your time

Hi! I´m trying to reference a related record action (update of fields, which has another interface and works properly) in another interface. I´m using the "record action field" component in the interface menu, but some errors appeared:  First of all, I tried to emulate the same code that I had in my related record action, but it doesnt recognize the rv!identifier and the following error appears ("could not find variable rv!identifier") That´s why I skipped that part and tried to put only the rule, being my code  the following one:  In this case, the related record action appears correctly in the interface. But the following error appears when I click in the button ("An error occurred while applying the context for the CPF Maestro Pedidos related action [identifier=235]. Details: The record data does not exist, has been deleted, or you do not have sufficient privileges to access it.") On the other hand

Hi All, I have requirement to read content of PDF having Table and Paragraphs which is structured and unstructured and store it into TABLES without any manual intervention. I have used the Appian inbuilt feature doc extract but its not providing me accurate reading capability like some fields are readable but some are not.  https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/23.2/evaluate-doc-extraction.html We would like to stick with Appian as it keeps the doc in Appian rather than using Google  Any suggestion will be helpful Thanks

Hi. I have a dropdown list. It fails when I select one of the values. Here is the code: a!localVariables( local!formAnswer: { function: "", subFunction: "" }, local!dynameiceValue: { functionList: rule!JRA_QRY_getBusinessOwnerFunctionList_AbbVie(), subFunction: rule!JRA_QRY_getbusinessOwnerSubFunctionList_AbbVie( businessOwnerFunction: local!formAnswer["function"] ), }, { a!dropdownField( label: "function", value: local!formAnswer["function"], placeholder: "select", choiceLabels: local!dynameiceValue["functionList"], choiceValues: local!dynameiceValue["functionList"], saveInto: a!save(local!formAnswer["function"], tostring(save!value)) ) } ) I get the options by query rule and put it into a variable. It looks like good. But it will throw the error when I select the value. This is the error message: Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error at function a!dropdownField [line 23]: A dropdown comp
