Hi Team, I have a process model which has around 5-6 nodes running in a loop. At one go the loop may have more than 1000 items to be run. The process model gets paused by exception after running the loop for 1000th time. Do we have any limit on  number of times a loop can run in one go? If yes, how can we handle the exception if we have more items than the maximum limit ? After the loop we have few nodes to run which gets stopped as the process model is getting paused. Appian current version : 21.1. Will soon migrate to 22.2. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, "Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = c3662:90d03] in rule 'bc_frm_addasset' at function a!dropdownField [line 114]: A null parameter has been passed.". An user cannot edit an asset when an UoM is deactivated. For eg. if Meters is deactivated in UoM reference table, then an user trying to edit an asset with 78 Meters as quantity can't edit the asset as it throws an error.  So I am trying to use intersection function but getting the above error.  Any suggestions how to fix this?  TIA a!dropdownField( label: "Unit of Measure", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: cons!BC_TEXT_PLACE_HOLDER_SELECT_VALUE, choiceLabels: property( local!unitOfMeasurementList, "description", null ), choiceValues: property(

Hello, I'm trying to create a gridLayout component whose components can be hierarchically selected (this means, clicking on a specific row will also select all its subrows, and their respective subrows, all the way til the last hierarchy level).  The thing is, I've assigned an unique id to each row from which I can know its parent rows, but in order to build this selection system, I should be able to loop over all row ids so I know if they have specific parent rows. Hence, my problem is getting all row ids. Is there any way to do it?

What would be the best way to conclude which of the two values ( text type ) is higher ?  touniformstring(1500000)<touniformstring(14285714) : this is returning as false . ( O/P should be True for mathematically to be correct ) touniformstring(1245) < touniformstring(2234) : This is returning as true as expected .  Is there any other idea to compare two text type value's to find out which is higher ?  P.S : The value is of text type . Changing the value to a number or decimal is out of scope . 

Good Day Experts, Can anyone please help me to skip SSO on embedded interface ? Instead of SSO I wanted to use generic account or service account for the Authentication and Authorization. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Kalai.

How to configure a timer to trigger on 1st and 15th of every month? pls let me know if any solution.

Hello: Can a process model pass back data to the record view interface when the user either cancels or submits a form within the process model? The scenario I am looking to handle is when a user clicks into a record view from the record list view. Within the record view, the interface has selectable tabs. The user usually selects a different tab before starting the process model. The issue I am having is when a process model is started from a record action on the record view interface, the selected tab index within the record view is reset to the original selected tab index of when the user entered the record view. Is there a way a process model can pass the selected tab state(or any data) to record view once the record action in the process model is cancelled or submitted? Thanks! Tony Plaza

Hello Everyone,                        Is there any way that we can have a text on the image.

Hi there! I am attempting to select a Card from a Menu Tab using Cucumber for Appian. The script is simply a smoke test hoping to click on the links/buttons/cards. Clicking on the card will link to a process model that I would just take a snapshot of.  The code looks like this but button is not the correct keyword. The snapshots attached will display the Appian Designer snippets: = load( local!actions: { { actionName: cons!ENT_LABEL_CREATE_USER, icon: "address-card", processModel: cons!ENT_PM_ADD_USER, showWhen: isusermemberofgroup_21r2(loggedInUser(),cons!ENT_GROUP_SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATORS). I am attempting to click on the button 'Create User'. It is being described as a Form Layout>Column Layout so maybe I am not selecting the correct Gherkin language. Is this a "I click on (card) (action) (button) (link) (menu)"? Sorry but just a little lost here!  /resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/11/2022_2D00_06_

Hello All, I have a question regarding the uploadfile component. When a file is uploaded using this component, the default behavior is the screen shits its focus to the top. Our requirement is to have the focus at the same section of uploadfile component i.e Upload as per the screenshot. Whenever we upload any file in Appian, the file is scaned for virus and then upload to the Appian KM space. The other requirement is to capture the metric/performance when a file of size ranging from 100MB to 1GB is uploaded. Thanks & Regards Girish Katti

Hello! I'm trying to implement a tree grid using the gridlayout() component in an Interface. I've been able to make it hierarchical (Once you click on a row, new subrows appear just under it) with loops and local variables to show or hide those subrows I now need to make the rows selectable on the grid, but I specifically also want that if I click a row, its subrows get automatically selected as well To give a little more of context, imagine a dictionary of 6 keys where every key defines a level in the tree grid. First all distinct values for the first key appear, and when clicking in one of them, all distinct values for the second key of elements that have that clicked value on the first key appear.
