I have a Interface object, where I forgot to add a description (see picture below (1)). How do I add this, given that the properties action is disabled (2)? Kind regards,

Is it possible to move a existing process conector from one corner (see picture (1)) to another (2)? Currently I have to delete the 2 connectors and recreate them. Kind regards,

Hi All, i know that PV is used to carry through out the process and AC within the node. But, i can't understand which are PV. is it only the rule inputs in interface can be PV or how it is used practically. and on what purpose we configure input nodes and and when we configure input. also what is the impact of save into. please answer.

I would like to know if the following scenario is possible within Appian, and if so how to accomplish it efficiently: I would like to establish a set of process models that each perform a certain function.  I would like to make an interface that my users can use to create a template and order those process models however they like, then save that sequence for later use by themselves and others. Finally, I would like those users to be able to run that sequence of process models on demand. Is this possible, and what would be the best way to accomplish it without resorting to crafting a new master process model every time? 

Can someone explain me the difference between milestone level audit and field level audit? If there is any documentation regarding these topics, it would be really helpful as well. Thanks.

The query editor is a super quick and handy way to get queries all put together, but I was curious why it doesn't function for queries on data sources other than data store entities? The logic needed when we code it manually is ultimately very similar. Not being able to use the editor for a record, for example, seems particularly weird as records are supposedly the fastest/best way to get data in Appian. Yes, I can put in filters and whatnot in the record itself, but then I end up having to make separate records every time I want to change what data comes back, which seems silly. So that leaves me with manually generating all my record queries (or anything else I want to query that isn't a DSE).  Is there something I am missing? And if not, can I request that we expand the functionality of the query editor to all queries instead of just the single subset of data store entities?

I have a small doubt and want to know if it can be resolved or not. So basically, I have a records list and I have generated a summary view for it. I am calling that record list in an interface wherein my column id_No is a link column and when clicked, displays a summary view of that particular record. I have created a local variable in that interface that should record/store the number of times any of the links from the id_No column are clicked. Is there any way to achieve it?

Hi,  I cannot Send Email from "Process Initiator", "Process Designer" and "Custom Sender" However, sending from "Process Model" or "Process" is working fine. please help. Thanks,

I have a scenario, where there are 2 dropdown fields namely "Region" and "Country" Choice Labels and Choice Values for "Region" dropdown field is referred to a constant (cons!LCV1_REG) and it has an array of values - Asia, Europe, Australia Choice Labels and Choice Values for "Country" dropdown field is referred to a constant (cons!LCV!_COUN) and it has an array of values - Japan, India, Sri Lanka, Russia, Germany France, New Zealand, Samoa, Tonga I created a decision rule (rule!LCV1_decidet) where my Region - Asia is equal to Country - Japan, India, Sri Lanka and my Region - Europe is equal to Country - Russia, Germany, France and my Region - Australia  is equal to Country - New Zealand, Tonga, Samoa I created an interface for the same.  So lets say I have selected Region = Asia and I get a list of Countries = Japan, India, Sri Lanka. Now if I suddenly go and select another Region, it gives me an error say

Hello, I have a "little" problem. I have an array that I want to modify using a! save, inside my foreach. Everything works fine on the interface. a!sideBySideItem( item: a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "", icon: "trash-o", size: "SMALL", width: "MINIMIZE", style: "DESTRUCTIVE", loadingIndicator: true, saveInto: { a!save( target: ri!moneyAccounts[fv!index].isDeleted, value: true() ), } ), a!buttonWidget( label: "", icon: "pencil-square

In Appian release notes of 21.4. Removal section contains Process start forms and user input tasks can no longer be configured using in-line expressions. To configure new forms, directly select an interface and map inputs to your process variables. Existing expression-backed forms will continue to work as designed. What does it really mean?

I have a Parent Page with a list of records.  - When a user clicks on the record, it opens to the edit page where users can make changes to record and hit save. - But the changes are not showing up on the parent page? How do I refresh the records on the Parent Page?

Hi, I have an integration that calls the target database through APIGEE. I have CDT of array which is array So the integration need to be called n number of times in parallel using MNI. I see the request sent to APIGEE for all the 11 records (test data had 11 records) available in the CDT sent at the same time but the response received by appian is taking more time even though APIGEE sent the response back under a second for all the 11 requests. Below are the apigee and appian logs. The duration increases for each thread in appian which seems strange when apigee sent the response in less than a second. APIGEE log: Request 1 till 11 received at 9:52:08 AM Response 1 till 11 sent in 300 micro seconds at the max making it a response sent in less than a second Appian process nodes Request         Started             Completed             Duration Request 11   

When you make an expression, the name and rule inputs show up in the little help box in the bottom left corner much like native appian functions. The expression's description also shows up. I was wondering if there was some way to make descriptions for the rule inputs. 

Hi team, please I hope that in the next release the engineer team will add again the selection of the process variable, task properties and activities class in the new expression editor because for designer is very useful to select instead of writing them and in addition this behaviour go in the opposite direction of the low-code and drag-and-drop message. As an example selecting the pv name directly instead of writing pv! and try to remember the correct pv name is more faster and easy

Hi Everyone, Currently there are a total of 100 columns in a table and I am using export data store entity to excel smart service to export data into excel. Since we cannot export more than 50 columns, I am using 3 sheets in same excel to get export data. Is there any other way to export entire 100 columns data into excel without splitting them. Thanks

I want to write an expression rule to compare two values:  first value is from rule input and second value from a db table field.If the values are same ,then another field(column) of my db table must be set to inactive or 0.

I have been assigned a task in my project wherein the requirement is to display a calendar as a page in the site. Note: The calendar should be user friendly and should also display events, if assigned to a user. The user should be able to move from one month to another, one year to another etc. The user should be able to view the calendar as the current day, current week or current month. How do I carry out this requirement?

Hi, I would have a theorical question : Let's say I have a very complex process that count 60 nodes, and the latter can not reach the end because of the 50 nodes limit. Let's admit that 30 first nodes car be executed in parallel with the 30 remaing nodes. Does the limit of 50 nodes will occur nevertheless?  (using an AND gateway for the 2 paths)
