Hello, I'm new to Appian, and I'm trying to build main page report which is quite similar to this "Form steps". However, each step has to show specific interface by using rule!tInterface1. My question is how can I check the validation for all of these steps at the end of the report and show a summary for all of the errors, e.g. "Step1 has an error". P.S. an error sign appears by "default" in the section that contains an error, Can I check if the section has this sign or not? Thank you in advance!

By clicking on relation action button present on summary page, user should redirect to summary dashboard of newly created record . Is there any possibility like this? Can anyone pls suggest me a solution for this?

Good day, I'd like to implement a search function in an interface, but I'm struggling to make it work. Once the user types in a search term and presses the search button, the appropriate results should return. The code :  a!localVariables( local!search: false, local!searchTerm, local!searchTitles: { "Amadori", "Telpark", "Microsystem", "Kone" }, local!searchData: a!dataSubset( data: rule!JT_CONS_CASE_STUDIES(), batchSize: - 1, startIndex: 2, sort: a!sortInfo(field: "title", ascending: true) ), local!searchField: index( local!searchTerm, wherecontains(local!searchTitles, local!searchData) ), { a!sectionLayout( label: "", contents: { rule!JT_uiCaseStudyDashboard(numberOfColumns: 3) }, showWhen: local!search, isCollapsible: true ), a!sideBySideLayout( items: { a!sideBySideItem( item: a!textField( labelPosition: "COLLAPSED", placeholder: "Search Use Cases", value: local!searchTerm, saveInto:

Hi, Can someone guide me on the requirement. I would like to know what type controls I can use to achieve this. 1. Display the data in a grid format with a link under Sno column data. 2. "ADD" button on top right. When the user clicks on that I need to show a separate screen with F. Name, L.Name, Address text fields and allow to click on "SAVE". Once user clicks on "SAVE", data should save to the database and come back to the below screen. 3. If user clicks on the data link under the Sno, then I need to open show a page with F.Name, L.Name, Address with text fields and need to load respective data, once if they modify and click on "SAVE", I need to save the updated data and come back and load the below page.

Hi, what we need to do if process model is consuming a lot of memory and due to  this appian environment getting very slow.I have already set archive (3) day from data management tab. Is Manually delete processes that have already been completed or cancelled is a another good option?

Hi All, We encountered a challenge with the Radio Button Component. Under certain condition it is loosing or 'forgetting' the selected radio button. We are using it to display the status in a workflow. Based on the users role and the status the entity is in, only certain options can be selected, so we are adjusting the choices. Below is a code example what we are doing. As you might see, if you select option 3, it stays only a split second on the UI and then the selection disappears. And yes - we alreadyhave submitted a support ticket to Appian, but it looks like the component will not be changed.  Any suggestions how to overcome this? We have our own ideas, but would like to see first what the community will contribute.(We will publish our version tomorrow). Thanks a!localVariables( local!selection:1, local!choices:a!refreshVariable( refreshAlways: true, value: if( local!selection = 3, {1,3}, {1,2,3} ) ), { a!radioButtonField(

Hi , My process was getting errored out at Parse XLSX file node saying  Error: An error occurred while evaluating expression: Output:rule!s_CRDoc(pv!changeRequestFile_doc) (Expression evaluation error in rule 'c_doc' at function 'readexcelsheetpaging' [line 8]: com.github.pjfanning.xlsx.exceptions.OpenException: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.) (Data Outputs)

So I have an interface that is saving two array of CDTs the idea I was having is that it would store each iteration of the array into its own respective row for the array example: {[uuid:1, fkuuid: ab32, date: today], [uuid:2, fkuuid: cd43, date: tomorrow]}. In the database there would be a row for UUID 1 and a row for UUID 2 but when I execute the write to data store entry I only get uuid 1. To push this even further I am doing this two times for separate tables and its only putting 1 entry into 1 table.  If there is any more information that is needed let me know! Any Ideas on how to get it to save all the information in the array of cdt to each of its separate rows?

When should we re-deploy an application vs. using a patch?

Hi, Is there a function available to retrieve only direct members from a group. The a!groupMembers function returns both direct and rule based members when "direct=true" is passed, but I am looking for a way to specifically obtain just direct members. Thank you 

I have used validation while creating a new entry in the grid which shows a message in case of duplicacy in entered field. But when I use the same validation in the update related action , it shows the duplicacy message  as soon as we click on update, even before actually updating it. How to resolve this? I want validation to occur when i enter the data, not when I it automatically loads the data

HI , I have a jira integration requirement and need to call jira from appian  to create epic,story and read few data from jira. To handle integration errors and maintaining each jira int call before and after maintaining the logging in DB. Instead of having  the error handling and logging in each of every process model , thinking to have a common routing process based on dynamic parameter  it should that process  and  since error handling and logging db and email notifications are in common process no need to have in sub process alone. with this redundant code is reduced and can be used for any other workflow later since it is a common component. what is the best approach for this  Thanks Soujanya

Hello, I'm working right now on increase the performance of my project and I'm been searching what could I do, in the academy the suggestions are, to replace subprocess for Startprocess etc. Well, I have a few question that I could testing but i want to hear if anyone has this answers. 1: in a process model, if I put 3 script task with diferent action, does anyone knows if its better to put all in 1 script or is the same?  2: which is faster, put multiple nodes of smart service to Write no DSE or put 1 of Write to multipleDatastore? 3: I have seen multiple flows that do not need to wait for the previous node, is it viable to use the "AND" GATEWAY to execute multiple nodes at the same time and this shorten the time or has that affect the performance of the process?
