How do I go about saving a file?I have the followingWhat do I need in the process model?I would have thought that this would automatically come when I press the submit button just like any other input.Is there any documentation on how to save this?I found this https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.4/File_Upload_Component.html, but it does not explain what you need in your process model or how to set up your database table(s)/field(s).

Hi, I have a rule input with multiple rows of data and I also have a local variable with few rows of data. Now I want to find the difference rows of data into a another local variable. Is it possible in appian.  Any inputs please.

Team, We have a start process which gets data from third party and process is scheduled to execute in every 5 minutes. If Appian is down during that period , we observed that when Appian comes online it start n numbers of same process for the time it was down. So let say Appian was down for 25 minutes , once appian comes online we see 5 process instances are getting triggered for the same process and leads to data duplication. We want to make sure that at any time only one process executing and not multiple. We thought of using timer to wait next to start process and assign random seconds to each instance but that fails if instances are more 25. Any other solution?

Hi All, i want to replicate the below section in another interface manually.  Which SAIL component can i use? 

I have a question regarding the visibility of UIT in tasks. I have tried assigning the task using process variable, individual users and also through groups. All the users and groups are part of the application and have viewer permissions. Also, I made sure to run multiple instances(one for each assignee). All the assignees are receiving the tasks but when they open it, they get a blank interface. But the same task, when opened by me is working fine.   I tried the troubleshooting mentioned in the documentation: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.4/Testing_and_Debugging_Problems_with_Process_Models.html and nothing worked. The user input task in not been configured as quick task and the assigned users are part of the application and has basic user permissions(viewer). (I am new to Appian. I hope I was doing it correctly. Any help is appreciated.) Thank You.

Hi All, I scheduled my L1 certification on a wrong time zone (Indiana) by mistake where as I live in India which follows IST. I was blocked from taking the exam since the Indian Standard Time(IST) is 10 hours and 30 minutes ahead of Indiana. Is there anything I could do to retake the same exam or Is there any other alternative for the same? Thanks in Advance!

Hi, I have an interface where I am loading the data in a read only grid using a recordType and also I have a "ADD" button to provide a new item to add. Now, when the user is trying to save a text fields data, I would like to compare text fields data with a recordType fields/columns.. Can someone advise on how to compare user enter data in a text field with a recordType or Read only grid column. If user is trying to enter same data, I would like to return a validation message. Thanks.

Hello All,  how to print this pattern * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I have a data-driven interface... An array of some data is passed to the interface, a foreach loop renders controls on the screen (including a drop-down list) based on the input data. The problem I see is the control focus is lost whenever a value is selected from a drop-down list.  There are two "flavors" of this issue.  First, if I use the mouse to select a value from the drop-down, the control focus (which should be on the drop-down) seems to revert to the top of the page.  Pressing <tab> focuses on controls at the top of the page.  Second, if I use the keyboard, arrow down to the choice, then press <tab> to select the value and move to the next control, the control focuses on the next control for an instant then it goes away.  Pressing <tab> at this point places the focus on the drop-down control I just used.  Third, if I use the keyboard and press enter to select the drop-down item, it behaves as if I were using the mouse..

 Hello everyone, I am facing this while trying to display group members in an interface within Appian. when we open any group, a specific grid is displayed which shows the members' names, user IDs, and membership types. I am trying to replicate this same grid inside an interface in Appian, but without storing the values. I have a constant that stores all the groups using a multiple dropdowns. When I select any group, I want the members present inside that group to be displayed in a grid along with their details such as membership type and their user ID. However, I am unable to achieve this and would like to request your assistance in resolving this issue. Please let me know if you require any additional information or if any specific configuration needs to be done to display the group members in the desired manner. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hello everyone, When a process model sends out email notifications to everyone it is configured to send said notifications to, is there a way to configure the address it comes from? It is currently "admin@<ourSiteAddress.com>, but we'd ideally like it to be something like noreply@<ourSiteAddress.com>. Is there an easy way to change this?

Hello, everyone!I'm trying to make an interface where you can select two dropdowns and attach a file, all these components are in another interface and I'm calling it into another interface (Main interface).
