Hello community, I would like to rename some fields in a CDT to match the naming used in the JSON input. When I began to build the naming wasn't clear yet.Offcourse I can map the data, but like it better if the naming in the CDT match the naming of the input.After I changed the name, I noticed that the name is not updated in expressions.I probably have to manually rename in code referring to the old name.But when I try to remap in the process model the old name still appears in the node and I am not able to select the renamed field.the situation is like: CDT.oldName changed to CDT.newName but I am able to select CDT.newName. Kind Regards, Erik

Hi  Let's see I have a filter, it gives you fromTime and endTime. and I have 4 time point which is:    00:00,   9:00,    13:00,   17:00 The text number I give to those block as  "00","09","13","17", now, base on the filter's fromTime and endTime, if my fromTime = 00:00 and endTime is null, it should return me {"00","09","13","17"}.         if my fromTime = 07:00, endTime is null, it should return me {"09","13","17"},         if my fromTime = 09:20, endTime is 13:20 , it should return me {"13"}, How should I do the if condition smartly to achieve this, thanks!!!!

Hello! How to debug an process model in order to find the reason why it stops? when the flow comes from the node SLA, it pass the other check(OR node) normally and the flows continue, but if the flow comes form the SLA2 , it stops on the OR node(Feedback all positive?). at this point I do not have any instance, any of current task and any error shows.  Where might be the problem? How I can find the solutions at this point? Thank you !

Good morning, Is there a way to re-assign a task that has been accepted by an user for other user? For example, user A accepts the task, but user B (a kind of admin/supervisor) needs to assign the task to other user I know that if user A assigns the task to user B, this could be possible, but that is not usefull for us, we need user B has the direct option to re-assign Thanks

The multidropdown field now has the ability to search for specific items within the list of options. I noticed it's quite fast at finding what I'm looking for even with a list of 1000+ items. I would like to know how the search it's being implemented to achieve this level of performance. The reason why I'm asking is because I would like to try to implement it inside a custom picker if possible. The implementation I have is the same provided by Appian with a foreach loop and checking every item against the provided search. However this stalls with large amounts of data. I know I can just replace the picker with the dropdown since it does the search for me and I have done that. But I would still like to know if there is a way to have that nice search inside the picker for future reference. Thanks in advance.

I have an ask to make a checkbox field have the following logic.  Checkbox has four items. If option ITEM 1 is selected then selection of ITEM 2, ITEM 3, ITEM 4 should be deselected automatically. If options ITEM 2, ITEM 3, ITEM 4 are selected then option ITEM 1 should be deselected automatically. Below code tracks the current values for the checkbox field in local!setA, previous values in local!setB, and the difference between the two sets which indicates what object the user just clicked in local!setDIFF. The issue we are encountering is that when the deselection logic is triggered, I can see local!setA's value meets the requirement but the checkboxField UI doesn't. It still shows the options as selected when they have been removed from local!setA. User has to make another mouse click action like clicking around the page then the UI reflects the local!setA values. Has anyone experienced a similar issue with checkboxField and were able to have the checkbox options re

I have few process models which are timer-based and are started every day at a certain point in time. The issue I am facing is there are specifically some nodes like: One script task in the parent process model Few discrete script tasks in some of the sub-processes called from the parent process model One sub-process node Ond De-activate user node in one of the sub-process The issue is that, they are not running automatically which they are supposed to run. This is happening only with some specific nodes which I've mentioned. I've compared the configuration with the other similar nodes in the process models which are running fine but couldn't find any difference which may lead to this issue. To run these nodes, I have to specifically right-click on the concerned node of the running instance and click on Start. Post that, it goes through properly. Any help on this would be great!
