I am new to Appian and I am evaluating this platform recently.  I defined a workflow without "process start form" it worked as expected and data finally has been save into db; This is my workflow and it is as simple as enough: And then I tried to add a "process start form" (I didn't want it but seems a "start form" is required if you want to start a process from the site pages), in my "process start form", there is nothing but a "Notice" text block and a "Submit" button(submit = true). but it behaved oddly since then. It showed that it only has "Start Node" and "End Node" now when I debugged it.  From the debug monitoring tab it seems totally not my workflow. Please can anyone tell me what's wrong?

Hi all, In our current project, we are discussing the use of a wizard-style form versus a single interface form; however, the form will need to support offline functionality.  Will we be able to use a wizard-style form offline, where each navigation action saves the form's data or is that too far outside of the current offline functionality? Thank you, Jacob Benjamin

We need a simple way to migrate a large number of documents from our Appian-based APS application to a non-Appian application. To do so, we need a way to attach metadata to the physical files that reside on the application server, under accdocs. We can obtain the following information regarding a document in Appian:    Document Name: sf1449    Document ID: 59834    File Type: TXT    Parent Folder: All Objects > APS Community > Contract Documents > Contract CORFD-21-C-0001 > Attachments    Parent Knowledge Center: All Objects > APS Community > Contract Documents > Contract CORFD-21-C-0001    Parent Knowledge Center ID: 59680 Using the Parent Knowledge Center ID, 59680, we can find the folder on the application server where the document is stored.    Folder on Application Server: /app/APS/_admin/accdocs1/59680 By going to the application server and visually inspecting and/or downloading a

HI. We have a requirement for an unfinished task to send out a reminder email 3 days starting, followed by every day. I have done this with an escalation containing an alert with a timer set to start after 3 days, then reoccur daily.

Hi there, As far as I know, it is only possible to use a Single Sign On mechanism with Appian using SAML but one of our clients requires to use OAuth2 tokens instead of SAML. Is that possible? Thanks a lot

Hello,  I have a record table and a nested funding type table. The record has typical information but I normalized the database to have some sections in their own tables and nested them according to documentation. For the drop down, the choices are populated by a expression rule that grabs the names of the funding types. I then have a index on the front end {index(rule!RP_GETfundDropDown().data, "fundTypeName", null)} grabbing the names. I then added the primary key of the fundtype table as well and listed those as the choice values. The goal was that I would just need to insert the id of the funding type into the record record type and it would be a reference fk. Instead, it is requiring the whole array of objects. See image. I am not entirely sure what I am doing wrong or why its expecting me to pass the whole row when it's referenced as a fk.  Get_FundType a!queryEntity( entity: cons!FundTypeNames, query: a!query( selection: a!querySelection( columns: {

Hi all, I have used the "Send E-Mail" smart service to send emails with attachments in my process model.  I got the error "Failed to send Email" in a process that errored out at the node "Send Email".  When I analyzed the file size I found that one of my attachments had a file size of approximately 61 MB.  What is the maximum file size allowed in Appian "Send E-Mail" smart service for attachments? Thanks in advance.

Hi All, Suppose I have a rule input of type doc or folder, I need to perform a check whether the passed data is actually a doc or folder. Any idea on how to implement this? The same goes with the case of User or group. Have tried using typeof() but it doesn't work for me.

We just want to find out if there is a possibility of downloading Community from the designer like the download feature available for Knowledge Center. We have several acquisition documents in knowledge centers which is stored under communities. Would like to know if a download feature is available at the community level since KC level download has to be done page by page in the designer and we have thousands of pages. We are in 18.2 version. Thanks, Meena
