Hi team We're trying to enter data when we are considering software to deploy. We've used the "Remove" function to avoid saving null values to our four filters table. It works just fine if we are looking at a single title, but for multiple titles we can't make it work PROBLEM: When we upload multiple values the pv correctly contains all data for each instance. The task generates the correct number of instances If the assessor chooses "not necessary" on any one task we get an error when trying to complete the subsequent tasks An Error Has Occurred Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = 4fdbd:bd846] in rule 'sal_fourfilterdetails' (called by rule 'sal_uiaddfourfilters') : An error occurred while executing a save: Expression evaluation error: Cannot update List of Map; using a scalar value to update a list of length (3) The error does not appear when we choose "not necessary" Here's a pic of the interfac

This should be an parent array. In the same form there should be another sub-button called "Add Arm Titles" this should be a nested child CDT. which should be used to add multiple rows and these values need to be stored into database. Also the same way need to have the delete functionality, when user deletes a period details, the child rows "Arm Titles" should also get deleted.   Add Period Details -->Parent (period details) --> Multiple Child (add arm details) can you please help us, how can we achieve this type of implementation, Quick responses on this thread are highly appreciated.   UI Screens

How can I send a Readonly grid data through Email 

There are two button in my form, one is submit another is cancel. I have many validations in my form, but I notice that, the validations are applied to both buttons. I've also tried the validation group, but the behavior is after I click the button the validation will take effect.What I expect is that the verification will be performed after the user has entered the content, and it will only take effect on the submit button. Is this possible in Appian? If the validation group is the only way I can achieve, Is it possible to disable the submit button after the validation triggered?

Hi All, I have a requirement where I need to generate a PDF with dynamic values (which includes tables).

Any help on the below is much appreciated!! 1. I need to insert images (icons and stamps) in the HTML but I couldnt able to. I have checked in community and found that we need to convert the image to base64 and then send the value to HTML. I have no idea on how to convert document to base64. I checked in appmarket but couldnt find any plugins as well.  2. I need to add three column footer.

Hi everyone, We're working with the scimPatchGroup() function from Appian's SCIM User Management application and would appreciate some clarification on the expected inputs for each parameter based on our current configuration. Here’s what we have so far: scimGroupType: We're passing 1, which corresponds to the Group Type ID for our SCIM-managed groups (1 - SCIM). This is the group type under which the group (from which users are being removed) is defined. jsonBody: We're using the following format: { "schemas": "urn:SCHEMA", "Operations": [ { "op": "remove", "path": "members", "value": [ { "value": "abc@gmail.com" } ] } ] } attributeMappings: We're using the default mappings from the SCIM application: [ { "appianAttribute": "ExternalId", "scimAttribute": "externalId", "jsonPath": "$.externalId" }, { "appianAttribute": "GroupName", "scimAttribute": "dis

Hi everyone, There is a read-only grid that uses a record-type data source. The table structure is as follows: Request Id (Primary Key) Name (varchar) In the grid filters, I’m applying a filter on the Request Id using the IN operator, and passing the values {9, 5, 3}. However, the grid displays the results in sorted order as {3, 5, 9}. I want the grid to display the records in the same sequence as the values I pass in the filter — i.e., {9, 5, 3} — without sorting them. How can I achieve this? Thanks in advance !

There are many components in my interface, and each component has their own validations. I want to implement a require like if any validation is triggered, the submit button should be disable. Is there any easy way I can achieve that? Or I can only write all the validations again in disable.

Hi everyone, I’m a PhD student researching low-code development. It’s impressive to see more and more people discovering low-code and no-code tools and using them in their work. I recently completed a study in collaboration with a consulting company that provides low-code solutions to its clients. Through interviews, I learned that many people without formal software development education are now able to step into this field thanks to low-code platforms. For many, this has created new career opportunities and pathways into tech. I also noticed that consulting firms often play an important role as partners of low-code vendors, acting as a bridge between platform providers and client companies. Beyond these observations, I’m interested in understanding how developers themselves feel about working with low-code development platforms—both the benefits and the challenges. Based on the collected responses, I found Appian was one of the most mentioned platforms. I beli

Before Importing an application and properties file, Can we pass the value of a data store in the properties file like ##TestDS content.a_<uuid>.VALUE=jdbc/TESTDS  can we do this ?

In my Appian environment, I’ve noticed that some groups have UUIDs that start with SYSTEM_GROUP_ followed by the group name, instead of the usual alphanumeric UUID format.How can I logically identify or classify these groups separately from regular groups?  When I use scimGetGroup() on these SYSTEM_GROUP_ groups, it doesn’t return any group attributes, unlike the other groups with standard UUIDs.Is this expected behavior? And is there a workaround to retrieve attributes for these system groups?

Is there a built in function for fuzzy match in Appian?

I am not sure it is a basic or i am missing a point . We're working with a multi-interface navigation in Appian (6 interfaces navigated via buttons). When a user clicks a button to go to the next interface, the interface loads correctly, but the page does not scroll to the top. We do not want to use a process model with chaining to reload the form. We also tried using formLayout(focusOnFirstInput: true) but that didn’t help. How can we make the form automatically scroll to the top on each interface load using only SAIL/interface logic? Setup :headercontent layout hosts - header, contents {two interfaces}.interface1 have 2 columns , first column hosts navigation and other one hosts subinterfacesinterface 2 have buttons : Go Back , Save & Continue How it works:On the first page (interface), the user fills out the details and scrolls down to click the "Save & Continue" button.
