Hello, The basis of this question is in the subject. What is happening is that we have a trigger function in our database that creates a 32 varchar UUID for each record when they enter our database. My issue is that since the UUID is not generated by Appian in the Data Type it doesn't pull it into the process. Since everything is a process variable I would need to pull information into the process model. Where I am coming into an issue with is how I would do this. More information no other column in the database is Unique so querying from the database would be difficult as things may repeat. Any information is helpful thank you in advance!

Hi  How to Enable Import package button in community edition i need for import IDP new version

I installed Appian version 21.4.340 and followed the quick installation guide. I was able to go onto the localhost site but when I tried to run the process model the flow is always stuck on the start node. When I start the Appian engines I notice the execution engines and process design are in stopping state. I tried using the engineRestart.bat but the result was the same.

Hello Appian Community, I am using "Create User With i18n" smart service in a process model to create a user. I am getting error " The following fields have invalid characters [Last Name: Abc Defghi Jk Lmno Pqrstuv WxyzAbcdefg Ijklm] *Name fields  may only contain letters, numbers, whitespace, and the _ or - special characters and username can only contain letters, numbers, and the following special characters: @ . _ - .  It must not match an existing username regardless of case." As you can see there is no special character in field "Last Name". and I also checked username is not present in appian. Still it shows this error.  Does that field has any limit on number of characters ?? Thanks, Shikhar Barve

Is there a way to disable nodes in a process model for testing purposes? At the moment I just disconnect the nodes from the process model, but Appian doesn't seem to like that. I would like to be able to do some equivalent of commenting them out, if there's anything like that.

Hello Everyone, PFA image of Instance of a process model which ran perfectly fine without any error. Few Details are :  There are 4 parallel paths in the process Model(from top to bottom respectively). 1st run always. --> Working Fine At each run either 2nd path is traversed--> Working Fine or (3rd --> Have Issue & 4th --> Working Fine) are used. Issue: On 3rd Path, I am using the node in the red circle to store a CDT in the DB, but nothing is stored in the DB. The previous node(Expression rule) in the same path create that CDT which we want to store in DB. However if we manually open the running instance of process model & Start the encircled node by doing a right click on it, It works fine. Kindly please explain me the root cause for this & suggest what I can do to overcome this issue. Thanks, Shikhar
