I am doing the Acme Auto Exercise for the Appian Developer coursework and am having some issues saving configuring the XOR gateways to save the condition pathways. The instructions as listed under "Appian Step-by-Step #9": Configure the Cancel XOR Gateway In this process, if a Mechanic cancels the start form, the process will end. If a Mechanic submits the form, the process will continue to the next process node. Follow the steps below to configure the Cancel? gateway. Drag and drop an XOR Gateway into the Maintenance swimlane to the right of the Start Node. Rename it to Cancel? Drag and drop an End Event into the Maintenance swimlane above Cancel?. Rename it to End - Cancel. Connect the Cancel? and End - Cancel nodes. To connect, hold down SHIFT on your keyboard, and then click from one node to another. SHIFT will automatically toggle your pointer to the connector tool. You can also use the Connect icon to connect the nodes. Drag and drop an XOR Gateway into th

Why Appian throws Internal Server Error on REST API when an interface or expression evaluation fails?

I have created an application that uses a public API as an Integration to retrieve the required data from a 3rd party website and store it in the Appian database. So my application is a "Dictionary Book" and I have created a CDT for the same using these fields:   id word phonetic origin definition example searchedBy searchedAt Next, I created an interface wherein I have passed this CDT, readOnly and cancel as a rule input. The user needs to fill and submit the "word" field, and the "searchedBy" and "searchedAt" fields are set using loggedInUser and now function. The rest of the fields would get their respective data via Integrations. I created the entire process in the Process Model and I was able to get and save the data for all the CDT fields without any errors. But when I added this interface as a page to my site, and tried to execute this interface, it gave me an error saying: Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = 831a9:

Hello, We have a requirement to embed Appian user interfaces/ approval tasks in a WeCom mobile App. I referred to Appian's documentation on embedded interfaces on https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.4/Embedded_Interfaces.html It details how to embed Appian interfaces in web pages outside of Appian but could not find any details on embedding Appian content in external mobile App. So is it possible to embed Appian interfaces in a mobile App like WeCom (similar to whatsapp)? Any pointers would be helpful Thanks!

I wan to know how to get the list of all process calendar names from the process model? Thanks

I was watching the course Advanced Appian Developer > Design for Scale Using Patterns and Anti-Patterns > Process Management Patterns. https://academy.appian.com/#/online-courses/9eec0cd2-199a-4c4e-85a8-cb7d044c0718 At about the 2:10 mark the instructor states "Text variables used by a process remain in cache until the next restart so archiving does not immediately remove all data. Do not save large amounts of data in text strings ..." This sounds an awful lot like a 'memory leak' to me. I thought that all memory for a process was released when the process is deleted or archived? Is this not the case? When is this memory recaptured? When the server is restarted? If so, how are clients who license Appian through the cloud impacted?

I have an interesting User Case where I need to link an Appian record with something outside of appian in a react application we are using. I don't understand the record generation since its not using any information from the database in that generation which it shouldnt because it could be a security issue, but I was wondering how I could get that link specifically and pass it to a button on my react app so when they click it, they will be taken to the specific record in appian for whichever record they clicked. Sorry if this doesnt make much sense.

Hi Everyone, The "Reassign Button" is getting displayed to the users even when they have Basic user privileges. The User input task is also configured not to have "Reassign" option in Assignment tab.  And this issue is not occurring consistently, if we create new cases for those users, we are not able to see reassign button. Please let me know if anyone have some idea.
