Hi All, What is the difference between Appian Designer / Appian Level 1 Credential and Appian Certified Associate Developer. Are there differences between topics in the exams?  Are the first two still valid having done the refresher courses?  Thanks, Eleonora

I have the following doubts: Can I bring the output parameters from the different tables or views which is added as process variable-I hope it is possible? Can I pass alias values as table input parameter like table column name is Purchase Order-but parameter name in the the JSON TEXT should be Order_Del_Number. both are same column, but I need to have the names changed.  How can I link them together. What are the different ways available in Appian. Please check the below link for more details about the issue addressed before for similar  query. https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/integrations/22331/web-api-that-connects-to-process-model--i-need-to-pass-input-parameter-different-and-get-a-different-output-parameter-can-anyone-help-me-out/87405#87405 Thanks Sunu Sam

Hi, I am trying to update an array of CDTs recursively. Base Array :  { {name:"Alex",rollNumber:null}, {name:"Stephen",rollNumber:3}, {name:"Dave",rollNumber:4}, {name:"Steave",rollNumber:5}, {name:"Rosey",rollNumber:7}, {name:"John",rollNumber:8}, {name:"Nile",rollNumber:10} } Now, If I insert number 4  where rollNumber is null , if that number exists in CDT array then all numbers greater than 4 should increase by1 until all duplicates are change to unique number, but all numbers less than 4 should remain unchanged. This is how numbers should change : 4->5, 5->6 Since there are no duplicates after 6 then increment should stop here, Updated Array: { {name:"Stephen",rollNumber:3}, {name:"Alex",rollNumber:4}, {name:"Dave",rollNumber:5}, {name:"Steave",rollNumber:6}, {name:"Rosey",rollNumber:7}, {name:"John",rollNumber:8}, {n

Hello,  I need to be able to create constant inside a process which will points to a directory.  Use case is as follows:  Sime kind of project is being created. User will be able to upload files to each project. But I need each project to have different folder for files.  So when a user creates the project, the system automatically creates a folder for this project files inside the process which creates the project. First problem is that inside the process modeler after the folder is created there is no way to create a constant for this folder. So I can store the created folder inside the database but after that, when I upload the files, the fileUpload component accepts only constants and I don't have it. referencing the target as [Folder: 432432] from the DB does not work either.  Any workaround ?

Hi, I have created the below process model and when I click on "start process for debugging" I am encountering an error "Error: attended nodes must be assigned". Can someone let me know what is an issue here.

Hello Appian, I am greatful of Appian for all the support and what you are doing now.There's just a little thing to ask for. 1. It would be great if you could add just one more label line in the grid, so it could allow us to use the sub header. 2. In USER Properties, it would be nice to be able to change the column name of Custom Fields to the name we want instead of Custom Field 1, 2, 3. 3. In the grid, when the header is in English, the width fits well. But in Korean, it is compressed like the picture below. Thank you.Always wish the best for you.

Hello everyone!  Subject: In our case we have link styled richTextItem which (on click/press) start process by startProcessLink() in new tab. Problem: There are no visual representation or effect after pressing link and process need cca 10-15 sec to open in new tab which is normal but Users are impatient and press link again and again causing multiple start of same process. Question: Is there a way to disable link or hide richTextItem or on any other way, visually (at least) show that link is pressed already? P.S. It will be most useful that links has same feature like Buttons (show progress on press) since one can’t start process from button. Thank you in advance.

Hi, If I need to get the vehicles Data where ID in {1,2,3}, I can do this : index( ri!vehicles, wherecontains( {1, 2, 3}, ri!vehicles.id ) ) But is there any way to do the same thing with a negation (a kind of notWhereContains) ? I mean I need to get the vehicles data where ID not in {1, 2, 3}. Of course, I can then use a foreach to get the correct data, or create an exclusion list items, to apply the whereContains on the latter, but is there any other way to do it with a single simple instruction ?
