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 stored data in so many rows for same date in editable grid. Now I am trying to display this data as read only grid in another interface row-wise. But I am getting data of only one row and not all the rows. The code related is inserted below:  a!localVariables( local!newGridRow: 'type!{urn:com:appian:types}Monitoring_Roster'(), local!addRow:'type!{urn:com:appian:types}Monitoring_Roster'(), { { a!gridLayout( label: "Monitoring Roster for: "& text(ri!monitoringDate,"dddd") & " " & ri!monitoringDate, labelPosition: "ABOVE", headerCells: { a!gridLayoutHeaderCell( label: "Monitoring Slot" ), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell( label: "Monitoring In Charge" ), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell( label: "Comments" ) }, columnConfigs: { a!gridLayoutColumnConfig( width: "DISTRIBUTE" ) }, rows: { a!forEach( items: local!newGridRow, expression: { a!gridRowLayout( contents: { a!textField( label: "Monitoring Slot", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: "--- Select a Value ---", choiceLabels: cons!Testing_TIME

Hi guys,  There is an option to change the background color/style showed in Tempo of the interface? Thanks, Erzen 

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

Hello, I have created one CDT and it's first column is auto generated primary key and the same CDT is used to store the column values of the editable grid. I have used the below code: Here "Slot Id" is primary key of CDT stored in the newGridRow local variable. I don't want to display this primary key column as editable grid column but want to store the value of this primary key along with the remaining editable grid columns in the database table. I have Write to Datastore Entity smart service. It is adding the new row to the database table with auto incremented primary key but not adding the values of other columns of editable grid in the table.  Please help me.

Hi, Am getting this error:" : An error occurred while executing a save: Expression evaluation error : Attempted to run a second smart service, but only one smart service can be run per expression evaluation".  Can someone help out how to sort  this out. I have read other documentation it was asked to use another smart service in Process Model, but in my case there is only one process Model and the interface has been called in Start process ...so basically how to use. I hve attached the code. Thanks saveInto: { rule!Abc( cdt_Abc: local!cdt_Xyz ), a!save(local!viewButtonAction, "VIEW"), a!startProcess( processModel: cons!APPIAN_PROCESS_MODEL_MAIL, processParameters: { Notes: ri!Notes, sendTo: local!sendTo, }, on

We have initiated a process model by email and we get an error when the expression runs, the error says we dont have enough privileges.While looking at the executions, we see that the process model was executed by the user "GUEST".How can we solve the error?

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!

Hi, I have a CDT based on a view I built on the Appian MariaDB database.An expression rule (say, rule!GetAllData) pulls from the corresponding DSE through a simple queryEntity, retrieving all results.In an interface, I have a local variable defined as the rule result:local!data: rule!GetAllData()I also have a refresh button, with a dynamic link supposed to refresh the content of the variable, viaa!save(local!data, rule!GetAllData()) The weirdest problem happens: when clicking the link, nothing changes. Appian seems to somehow cache the results of the rule. Note that the records in the query differ between refreshes, so Appian maintains cached records that do not exist in the view anymore!I have verified this from the interface designer, inspecting the value of local!data.Even this does not solve the problem:{  a!save(local!data, null),  a!save(local!data, rule!GetAllData())}Even if I comment out the second line, click the link, verify that local!data is set to null, decomment

I am attempting to config the node and it works great when I use the subject, but the subject will change except for "RE:" in front of it.  When I attempt to set it up with ToEmails or To Names it never kicks off. Thoughts?

Hi, I am calling a startprocess smartservcie on submit button click in my interface. and i have set the submit as true for that button. So here before getting the response from smart service, interface is moving to next node in the process model. I want to get the response and based on response need to validate the interface. If no issues, then need to move to next node in the process model. Process model is starting asynchronously so i think whatever i am performing in onSuccess of srtartProcess, is not happening before submitting the interface. Any suggestions on this please.
