Hi , I want to add filter condition  from interface to expression rule(Query Entity). In existing scenario on interface i am using below code to display error message . Now same functionality i want to achieve at query entity filter condition. I want to filter my data at first level only instead to pop error message on interface. Can you help me to add below condition in query entity.  Filter Condition which need to be add on Query- count( rule!getValidationFilter( index( ri!masterDataSet, "nameID", {} ) ) ) >= 1 Basically i want to apply above rule in query entity . Master data should be filter out where count is greater then 1 or equal 1. QUery Entity- a!queryEntity_18r3( entity: cons!MASTER_TABLE, query: a!query( logicalExpression: a!queryLogicalExpression( operator: "AND", filters: { if( rule!APN_isBlank( ri!nameID ), {}, a!queryFilter( field: "nameID", operator: "=", value: ri!nameID ) ) } ), pagingInfo: local!pagingInfo ) ),

I'd like to create an expression rule that will set the branding for logo, logo alt text, and/or favicon to either a value specified by expression rule, or (if that is null) the default Appian graphics/alt-text.  Also...if the logo/favicon is saved as a document, is this how you display the correct image? todocument(<id as provided by expression rule>)  In essence, I want to write the Expression for the branding as something like these lines: a!defaultValue(todocument(rule!getBranding(attribute: "logoImage")), <Appian's logo's ID>) a!defaultValue(todocument(rule!getBranding(attribute: "logoAltText")), <Appian's default alt-text for the logo>) So, basically--if the rule!getBranding with its specified ri!attribute comes up empty, use the Appian defaults for each of logo image, logo alt-text, and favicon.

Hello dear APPIAN community,  I am pretty new to this platform, so I'm still figuring out the capacity of APPIAN and its limitations. But there is something that I would like to confirm before I invest more effort. Is it possible to integrate SHAREPOINT SPACES just like SHAREPOINT? If not, what would I need to do to  have a 3d viewer that the user can click and interact with on a APPIAN based app. All on the web application platform (and not mobile) of course. I would really appreciate if anyone could give me an answer or at least some directions as to how would I be able to achieve this. Thanks in advance.

I had an idea for how to make PM-generated Emails look on-brand, but I don't know if it's currently able to be implemented. Basically, storing the colors, logo, anything that can be defined with an Expression on the Site designer page in a database table.  Retrieve these branding attributes using an expression rule, and use them to display the Site appropriately. Also be able to access up-to-date branding using the same expression rule, which can be saved as a PV and thus influence an expression-based Send Email Smart Service. As I see it, storing Brand attributes in the database also allows for easy updates to a site's look, while making the transition seamless for any branded emails.  So my question is--can a site's properties/attributes be accessed using any native (or plugin) function?  I was also looking around to see if I can find the UUID of the site itself, but I can only seem to find the UUID for a Constant version of that Site.

We got a traditional task based process running in production. Currently the users don't know the assignee of a task. How do I write into a table as soon as  * the task assignee changed   * the task is accepted by someone in a group ? ( We can design a wait event in process, which will write into DB as soon as the task assignee is changed. But this is memory consuming approach as the event is always active. I'm looking for any better approaches) Thanks everyone

Hello All, I have a multiple dropdown that have values ex. "ACTIVE", "PENDING, "INACTIVE".  I need to display all the details with a status like ACTIVE and PENDING. However, I can't do it using a!queryFilter. Here's my line up code for filter. a!queryFilter( field: "status", operator: "includes", value: ri!statusSearch, applyWhen: not(isnull(ri!statusSearch)) )

Hi Everyone, If I select the fields Ex. -"name","email", etc. from the interface. Only the data related to the fields should only download in excel format. Please explain to me how to do it. Thanks in advance.

I have an interface that has four dropdown components with dynamic choiceValues based on a query. When a value in the first dropdown is selected, it filters the values of the second dropdown. The second dropdown filters the third and the third dropdown filters the fourth. Each dropdown is disabled until a value is selected from each of the previous dropdowns. This works perfectly in the interface.  However, in the process model there is an option to "edit existing equipment" that will query a database and fill in fields in the interface, possibly including the four dropdown components mentioned above. When I test this process, I get an error that seems to be telling me that a query for one of the dropdowns in the interface is returning null when it shouldn't.  Hopefully this makes sense, please feel free to ask for clarification on anything. I have included the relevant code below. Thank you in advance for your help! Here is the query in the interface that gene

My case is to display error message in a popup window, which should be displayed when a interface is opened. I know there is a confirm option in buttonWidget and link but they are not applicable for my case. Can any help on this? Thanks in advance. 

When a query is performed the response is a dataset which contains a dictionary. The issue is that the dictionary does not have the proper type casting for the attributes (they are just any types). This means that anytime a comparison has to be done, or a wherecontains is used we must first convert the result of the dataset into a proper data type.  Side note, can we just make wherecontains perform basic type casting.

Can anyone explain why and(null)  is true
