Team, Anyone have done below? We have application UUID and using that we need knowledge centers -- using KC we need to get folders inside it.

Can we pull news feeds comments from db? I do not have access to the table tp_feed_entry, is it the right table to look at ? Is their any other way to pull those?

Hi, I have the following situation: - one interface that is embedded inside the other larger interface - first interface has non submit button that starts process upon click - first interface has 4 rule inputs that are used as parameters for starting the process - these 4 rule inputs are calculated also on the button click, just before sending them to process as parameters Behavior on test: - if I test this interface "manually" from designer, process is successfully started and all the parameters are passed to the process - if I test this interface through the process which contains its "parent" interface, parameters are not forwarded So, this code for the first interface doesn't work: a!localVariables( ... a!buttonLayout( primaryButtons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "Start process", saveInto: { a!save( ri!firstProc_cdt, rule!DLS_mapFirstProcParam(

Hi , I am facing validation issue after applying filter from dropdown. Its coming because at validation rule I am  using ri!teamDataTrs which is getting reset on basis of filter criteria.

Is it normal for taskid to change multiple time during a short process model?  I have a process that has  a UI node, followed by an XOR and an email node. I took samples of the TP!id at the start middle and finish and found it changed a whole 3 times for a simple accepting of the task to the end of the process. 

Hi - Is there any easy way to compare Appian DB Table schemas from different environments just like other Appian Objects we do Compare and Deploy? Some of the tables have custom properties which we updated from Backed through SQL scripts and was not possible from CDT. Before deploying I want to find out difference between two environments so that i can prepare script to deploy the changes. Thanks. 

I have a table that is connected to sub tables. Through an interface I want the user to select the record and I can update it.I want to know how I can configure a button that updates directly in the database and how to connect it to a process model. This is the interface and we have a button that takes us directly to the registry to update it.  This is the interface to update I already have the buttons, but I want to know how to configure them so that it is updated in the database.

Please can someone have a look and tell me  what I am doing wrong here ?

Hi All, We have a requirement to display the audit log of task reassignment to other teams in the Task list . Any ways to find out the audit histories of task reassignment .  Does appian provides this feature in 20.4? 

Hi, I have created an Expression Rule that returns 3 values (for example). a!localvariable( ..., { value1: local!myValue1, value2: local!myValue2, value3: local!myValue3 } ) When I call my ER inside an Interface, I do not have any problem to get the 3 data (ex : rule!myRule().value1). But how would you do it inside a Script Task from a Process model ? because when I call my ER I can only set the result into a single Target. Maybe is there any way to do it with a Map, or any other solution ? (obviously I could use a CDT but it would be used only for this case in the whole application, so maybe it might be a good pratice to not create this CDT just for a single using. Or maybe, the good practice would be to use imperatively a CDT ? ;-)  ) Regards    

I would like to automatically regression-test an Appian App. The idea is to populate a dynamic, nested, conditional Appian UI with minimal to no changes on Appian side. Test cases have to be defined in AzureDevOps and using Selenium is considered an option. So far, I see two alternatives: I could image to define a REST-API for the corresponding form, if that is straight forward. By straight forward I mean that only a few lines of configuration on Appian side are allowed. The challenge is the current architecture of the interface with submit-buttons on a parent form and data to be entered in an interface nested inside the parent UI via rule-input. We tried to use Selenium (without any changes on Appian side), but the trouble is to identify the buttons or to populated the pull-down menus etc. since all elements have names which change between deployments of environments, as far as I can tell. Is there a way to inject an additional, constant, user-defined CSS-property to each an every el

Anyone willing to help with calling record data and using Record Action within gridLayout component. This I can implement using gridField, but I have to use editable gridLayout. Thank you in advance

Hi All, I found some strange behavior with the below expressions related to date and time. { /* All these worked */ now() + second() * 62, now() + minute() * 5, now() + hour() * 5, now() + day() * 5, /* These didn't work */ now() + month() * 5, now() + year() * 5 } Can someone please explain why the last 2 statements don't work, and throw cast invalid error?

Who knows how to get rid of this auto generated symbol inside barcodeField? It creates false sense of available data thereby affecting my coding logics. The screenshots of both the Interface and  expression are attached.

So I have a requirement to create an interface that allows management to view and prioritize orders.  I have created and editable grid, but the issue is some lines have the same "order no"  and I will need to to automatically change all rows with the same order no as the one that was changed. Any thoughts?

Hi All, please tell me how to not insert the duplicate data in database code:- { a!localVariables( /* This variable is used to persist the checkbox on selected items by holding the identifiers of the selected rows. */ local!selection, local!Taglist: rule!tagslistexpression(), local!items, local!assignportfolioid, local!allportfolio: rule!Portfoliomaster_selectAll(), local!Temp, local!selected, local!Portfoliomaster:rule!portfoliomasterexp(), /*local!portfolioid: max(local!Portfoliomaster.portfolioid),*/ /* This variable would be used to pass the full rows of data on the selected items out of this interface, such as to a process model. */ local!selectedEmployees, local!filter: rule!customermasterexpression(tags: local!selectedEmployees.tagname), { a!richTextDisplayField( label: "", labelPosition: "COLLAPSED", value: { a!richTextHeader( text: "" ) } ), a!columnsLayout( columns: { a!columnLayout( contents: { a!columnsLayout( columns: { a!columnLayout( conten

I am using PDF Doc from Template smart service which creates the document and I have stored it in a process variable. Now I want to display the document in documentViewerField  in another interface. How can I do this? Please help.

Would be nice to have the equivalent of "Replace in Files" of a text editor but for rules. It would allow you to do a search and replace across multiple rules. It would make it much easier to do some refactoring on an application.

Hello there, I have just got certified through the new certifications programme and I am trying to understand what are the courses I should take in order to keep the certification active. Can anyone help me to identify the mandatory training?  Thanks a lot!

As there are more and more ways to embed Record Types in interfaces, it would be really nice to be able to specify the text in the Record Type placeholder. This would make using OOTB Record functionality in translated applications easier. ref: https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/general/14673/search-bar-in-records
