Hello Community, We have a form that we modify to bring in all of our interfaces.  Most of them pull json from a REST api. This interface will need to GET and UPDATE methods from a SQL table and will trigger off of the process ID. Expression: takes 2 inputs: the current process id and a key that will allow me to pull specific data out of the json. My Question:  How do I pass the forms process ID into the expression?  Here is the start of my rule to pull in the interface into the form: rule!TEST_ReviewsList(rule!CORE_GetProcessDataByKey(wfProcessId: "47" , key: "comment")) Thanks,David

Hi, I have defined a local variable inside interface in which i am updating value of rule input like local!item: ri!data, Now I created one expression rule inside that i am writing multiple validations, in this expression rule inside rule input I am passing local! items from interface and I am calling this expression rule on save button for disable it, but it is not working. Note: local!items value is getting updated in interface while changing row value in grid.

Hi everyone, I'm having this issue where I'm trying to index a date and time array using the index of caseID from another array with same order. Below are the process variables and the code that I wrote: allCases Number (Integer) 3,061,158; 3,061,157; 3,061,156; 3,061,155; 30,611,111; 306,115,555 updatedDateTime Date and Time 20 May 2023 12:00; 21 May 2023 12:00; 20 Jun 2023 12:00; 6 Dec 2023 12:00; 20 May 2023 12:00; 20 May 2023 12:00 However there was no updatedDateTime value passed into my sub-process, so I'm wondering what did I do wrong with the indexing. Any idea? Thanks a lot in advance :)

when user upload any kind of excel sheet then interface will extract data and show the user the data. I have created a Expression rule  readexcelsheetpaging(excelDocument : todocument(ri!ExtratExcel), sheetNumber : 0,pagingInfo:a!pagingInfo(startIndex:1,batchSize:1000),) but don't know how to add it in script task and make process model out from this.

Is there a way to display the user input in different color instead of black inside the editable textField or paragraph while typing?

Any thoughts on how we can handle this problem?Did anyone else faced similar issue and how did you handled it? Many times recently we have cases that get "stuck" are doing so because someone processes on them twice. There's three flavors of this: The same user opens the case on two different tabs/windows. They process the case on one and a few hours later process the case again because they found the second tab Two users open the case. User 1 processes and completes. User 2 then does the same a few minutes later [only seen twice] Two users hit get work within milliseconds of each other and got the same work object We're less concerned with option 3 because we've only seen it once. Options 1 and 2, though, are painful.  Could  we change those process models to prevent this issue: We want to include clear messaging to the user when they try and process the second time. Consider performance too.

Hi, when i edited one row data and submitted after that second row is not getting selected means after selecting first row the local variables selected row and selected row index has the value 1 after submitting it it was nullified when i am selecting the second row the local variables not taking value to edit. please find the below screenshot for the same and suggest on this. After selecting first row: After submitting first row and selecting second row:

I have created a local variable that will fetch all the tasks from a process report. When there is a change in  the task,i.e. i have accepted or assigned or completed the task, or added a new task, it should automatically refresh the grid and show the change in it. How to do this process?

Need to add multiple phone numbers.. on screen  and want to store in DB .. what could be the best approach

Hi All, I have updated a CDT and table by adding a new column and deployed those changes to PROD. Now I have couple of active process instance of each request in PROD which is using old CDT version and I need to fill new column with a specific value as per customer request. Since we have " write to data store entity" smart service in active process instance, even though if i try to update backend table directly to update that specific column for each request, the column value changes to Null when process moves forward(Specifically after "Write to DS entity"). Please suggest an approach to resolve this issue. Thanks in advance

Hi Appian, There is a Process model(A) and within it there is Process model(B) as sub-process. When executing the process, it works fine with great performance for the first loop. (less than 1 sec) But for the loops after the frist loop, the process performance slows down massively (more than 13~16 sec, at least 13 times the first loop performance.)     The preformance of the process slows down massively. And this is a critical problem for us. What might be the reason for slow down of the performance. And how could we fix this? Thank you

I want a separator line(Horizontal) similar to the one offered in SectionLayout. Is there any such component or work around for the same outside sectionLayout?

Hi,Can someone please provide a small & clear example of code snippet on how to find total for column values in a grid ?I am new to Appian and finding difficult in understanding the related blogs & docs.Usecase: I have two columns.

Hello All, I have a requirement that, this type of grid has to be shown(each row has different mapping), the existing structure has the card layout on top of that how this can be done?   Let me once if anyone can find out solution or idea on this. Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks, Is there a way to show the value in a dropdown in italics? Regards, Ghanashyam

Hello Community, U want to use a array of CDT's as input to the text from template smartservice. It works fine for 1 Line. How to configure the next CDT's Will append to the document on the next Line? Tried joinarray char 13 and char 10, this only works for one mergefield. Kind regards, Erik

I have a dropdown component and I want certain values to be available for choice based on the security groups of the user. For example someone who is only in group A might be able to choose 1, 2 or 3 from a dropdown, someone in group B might be able to choose 4, 5 and 6 from the dropdown and someone who is in both groups would be able to choose all 6 options. Changing the dropdown labels/values based on group is not a big deal to do, however, since the dropdown only allows values to exist that are within the currently available list of labels/values, if group A chooses 1 and someone in group B looks at the form, the 1 will be invalid and break the interface. What would be a good way to get around this issue? 

Hello everybody, I am a bartender and YES I am changing careers. Currently I'm taking college classes in development to catch up on tech and I will be attending APPIAN WORLD 2023 in San Diego on may 1st. My concentration is development to start applying jobs in about 6 months. I wanted to go ahead and connect with people who recently did a career change, OR already done it (NICE WORK BTW) - and potentially become Appian buddies and learn from each other OR learn from YOU! If you are going to attend Appian world, we seriously should connect. I am looking to build Appian relationships, share and consume projects in the community too. Hit me up on LinkedIn, its sorta lonely over there but don't we gotta start somewhere? Thanks for this community and take care colleagues! LinkedIN

HelloI have a section that is collapsible but the label has to change based on the state of the section - any suggestions on how I can implement it using Appian's built-in features. I can do it using richTextField but then I can't seem to emulate the slow animation that Appian's default code does. So, two questions: Is there a way to change labels based on the state or Is there a way to emulate the slow animation of the arrow if I create the section label using richTextField.a!sectionLayout( if (sectionIsCollapsed, label:"Show Details", label: "Hide Details") is it possible to code the slow animation of the arrow as Appian does here?label:"Show Details", logic to change text to display based on the state of the section  Thank you for your assistance M a!localVariables( local!isExpanded: false(), a!sectionLayout( label: "Outer Section", isCollapsible: true, contents: { a!richTextDisplayField( value: {
