We have a strict 30 minute session timeout policy, and want to show a countdown on our interfaces (dashboards and forms) warning users how much time they have left. While we can have a 30 minute timeout from load, this isn't accurate because they may keep the session active by navigating or interacting with SAIL components. Is there a way (out-of-the-box, plugin, or API) to show the user how much time they actually have left in their active session / how long since they have been active? Thanks!

While using a!recordActionItem() to open a pop-up, there is no close option which is by default by Appian to close the dialog box? What can be the solution?

I have two interfaces and want to switch between them but my process variable doesn't interact. when I click the "Edit Mode" button in the interface, the process variable doesn't change and the process stays in view mode.

Zuuup, people ? So, I've created a releated action and added it to a interface. All following the usual, nothing exceptional. However (of course, otherwise this post wouldn't be necessary), the follwing message poped up when I tryied to click on it. I reviewed security settings for this action and releated items to it. All looks ok. Any suggestions ?

Hi everyone, For audit purposes in a ticket management process, I need to track create/update/delete actions on a Ticket (record type) each time it has been opened the relative interface and track timing (basically: startEvent, endEvent). I already track the interface initial loaded date/time in a local variable using now(), but how to pass it to a rule input (and therefore use it in the create/update process)? I think I have to use a!save in the primary button, but I am missing low-code details. Do you have any suggestion?Thank you so much,

Hello all! I am creating a portal for Appian Europe Live Build Challenge 2022. In this task among others I am showing on my interface a read-only grid with scheduled World Cup matches.  Since I need to use Appian Portal, I cannot use record type and my data source for the read-only grid component is a (local) variable that contains list of Dictionary data I got from previously created API and Integration. The question is: How to create user filters that allow to dynamically filter rows in a read-only grid component?  In my case, a user would enter my Portal website and filter matches by coutry or group. Thanks in advance! Marcin

Hello, I have a site with an interface page as content. My interface nested other interfaces and the navigation through all interfaces is based on the logic of local variables. However, in some interfaces I use "a!processTaskLink" to run tasks on already started processes. My problem is: I want to open these tasks in the same tab and when I finish my task, I want to go back to the interface where I was. But, the actual behaviour is that when I finish my task, I go back to the main interface because the values of local variables are lost. Does anyone know how to get around this problem? Thank you.

i have a requirement where i have a field for which im not storing data in the db. but i need to show that value on the landing page . how can i achive it?
