What is best practice for this? I am trying to make an interface that schedules maintenance for a vehicle  using my maintenance CDT and displays the vehicle information from my vehicle CDT. I am wondering what the steps to do this are. The parent CDT I believe is maintenance as it uses vehicle ID as a foreign key. I already have the read only interface for vehicle information which is uses the following constant to pass information from the vehicles table into the interface. I have also made constants pointing to the data store for maintenance for the process model which I have not designed yet. PLEASE SEE ALL CONTEXT BELOW I am trying to get the above information to display here: As far as record types go I have created a new record type for Maintenance and added a related action to my Vehicles record type using:

Good afternoon all. Here is what's going on. I am given a string, or Text variable. This variable is used to store employee IDs. Although it is one variable, it can contain several IDs (or contain none). There is nothing I can do about this and I cannot change this. Now, I need to check if this value has any of the following: no values, one value, or many values. This Text can dynamically change when a user selects IDs, or removes them, from a custom picker. If the Text has several values, I am currently using split() to separate the IDs into an array, which is working fine. Then, I have a local variable that uses the array to get the names for each of those IDs. Unfortunately, the last ID is contained in the new array, but fails to update to the name. For example, if the following IDs exist: 1, 2, and 3, It will show: Peter, Paul, and 3. I'm currently using Appian 21.3. local!employeeIDs: if( isnull(ri!record.employeeIDs), null, split(ri!record.employeeIDs, ";")

HI Appian support, We need to create webAPI for starting a process model, which has a receive message smart service at the starting point of the process  model. This scenario we require for the Approval/decline workflow to be integrated using teams, that is, Approval from the teams app is associated with Approval API from the Appian web API, which will start a process model with receive message smart service event. How will I achieve the same work flow using Appian web API and process model, can anyone help me with this? Thanks Sunu Sam

I have requirement where i need to  sync Prod data in Test environment to perform load, performance and some functional testing. Issue is with Documents which are large in number. All these are transaction data saved during workflow in Prod and we need to use same in test environment to check the performance or load. SQL data can be copied which is in Million record. As documents are saved with ID in table, is there any way to copy Environment specific data(Which is of large volume) as it is into target env?

1. I have a process model "Main_Process". It wants a pv!letter from the below process it runs 2. Inside I have a Start Process node that calls a process model "Apple". It wants a pv!letter from the below that it runs. 3. Inside "Apple" I have a synchronous sub process "Core" inside that outputs to its parent an important value we will call pv!numberOfSeeds I can send data between 1 and 2 with activity chaining and outputting variables i want with AC!processinfo.pv My issue is that when 3 "Core" is involved, I can get nothing out of it, and any variables changes done during or after it are no longer visible in "Main_Process" Any ideas on how I can get values out of Core to my Main Process?

Hi all, I'm working on poc, i have an appian process which needs to be triggered only when new items are added in the database.

I have a situation where we are assigning individual named users to a task from a database by role but the task isn't visible.  When I look at the process instance, there is no error showing with the task itself except there are no assigned users showing in the assignment tab.  Is there a limit to the number of individual users that can be assigned a task? The users are part of groups in Appian but the task is assigned to individual users instead of the group.
