Hi everyone,  We have a need to clean up documents in our lower environment as it is consuming a lot of disk space. We identified two folders whose contents aren't needed currently. However, I would like to back them up just in case it's needed in the future. However, when I download the folder as a zip and subsequently unzip it, the folder hierarchy is different than how it is on Appian. It might not be a big deal for us but I did want to ask the community if they know of a way to preserve it? Following is the difference in hierarchy Hierarchy in Appian FY 2020 Report 1 12.

Hello, Recently I was provided with a requirement to extract certain data from PDF documents. The PDF documents should be extracted from a common mailbox and then few data available within the documents will have to be extracted automatically and stored in a database table. The whole process should be automated and there should not be any manual activity present within this process apart from reconciliations if any.  After going through the documentation, I came across the inbuilt application IDP and the basic Document Extraction smart services which can perform the data extraction task. As IDP requires some manual activity, I prefer document extraction services as a better option for this requirement. Can use Appian RPA to automate the steps required in using IDP to achieve this functionality ? Is this a better option than using the smart services ? Please suggest the best way of achieving this requirement. 

I have 3 buttons and two buttons must to be disabled if I select one of the 3 butttons. I tried with the follow code on disabled property: a!buttonArrayLayout(     buttons: {          a!buttonWidget(               icon: "check",               size: "LARGE",               value: local!buttonVal = 2,               style: "DESTRUCTIVE",               disabled: if(local!buttonselected = true, if(local!buttonVal = 1, "SECONDARY", false), false),               submit: a!save(local!buttonselected, true) ) },      align: "CENTER" )

Any plans to expand a!submitUploadedFiles() beyond portals? I have use cases where this could be useful in a standard application.

Scenario:  A user opens a task and sees an actionable interface (they enter data, click submit, it goes back to the process model, etc).  The interface displays several key pieces of information the user needs in order to complete the task.  In addition, there is a button/link/widget on the interface that will open a second window with a lot more details regarding the context of this request.  Both windows need to be open at the same time and the user can tab back and forth between the two in the browser (or set the two side-by-side using two browser windows) as they complete the user input task.  The action interface has a dozen or two fields.  The details interface has a couple three or four hundred pieces of information. NOTE:  There are no record types being used here.  The details data is a large XML object that comes from an integration which will likely be placed into a similarly large, hierarchical CDT structure.
