When retrieving data through an integration, if an error occurs, I want to display a detailed error message to developers for debugging purposes. However, if an end-user encounters the same error, I prefer to show a user-friendly message that doesn't expose technical details.

We are using 'Export Data Store Entity to Excel' smart service to write data into Excel files. We built a process model which copies an excel template and writes into the copy of the excel template to generate an excel file using this smart service.This smart service is pretty much doing a good job other than few issues which we are trying to find resolution. Here are couple of questions if you can help with. 1) We notice that formats maintained in the Excel template is getting lost if we write some values into that specific cell. Is there a known way to avoid this? (Please see the screen shot attached) 2) Also - we notice, in the cells, if we write numeric values, the generated excel is comming up with this 'comment' icon in cell corner. We tried to write the value as numeric to the cell. But looks like still that is not fixing the issue. Is there a known way to avoid this? (Please see the screen shot attached) 3) Is there a way to delete a sheet from the excel in the

Hi, We are using Compare and Deploy to deploy between environments where we have configured a service account so that objects will be deployed in the name of service account.

I have a main zip file that contains other nested zip files. I need to extract all these files and apply some custom naming rules to the extracted files. Here’s what I’m looking to achieve: Extract the Main Zip File: Unzip the main archive to access the nested zip files. Nested Zip Files: Perform some validation on the names of the nested zip files. I'm facing two problems: 1-When I try to extract a zip file that contains nested zip files, it doesn't extract them correctly and doesn't output any errors. However, if I include other types of documents, like .docx or .txt, they are extracted correctly. 2-How can I read the contents of a zip file (e.g., the names and types of the nested files)? I’m using a zip extractor, but it doesn't seem to offer this option. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve these issues?

Hi, is there a way to disable the use of /suite/?signin=native? We are currently using OpenID as our authentication method(we need to include every new user on the AzureAD Group), but if an Admin user creates one and don't include it on the group, the user could access to Appian using the native version.

When working with rich text components in Appian, I encountered issues with displaying special characters correctly, particularly backslashes (\) and other escape characters like tabs (\t) and newlines (\n). These characters can be misinterpreted or escaped incorrectly, leading to incorrect rendering in the interface. Example Scenario Consider the following example, where you have a string containing file paths with backslashes that you want to display in an a!richTextItem component: "File Path:\nC:\Users\tUserXyz\Documents\Project\file.txt\tAnotherPath:\nC:\Users\nUserXyz\Documents\Report\report.txt" Actual Output: "File Path: C:\Users UserXyz\Documents\Project\file.txt AnotherPath: C:\Users UserXyz\Documentseporteport.txt"Expected Output: "File Path: C:\Users\tUserXyz\Documents\Project\file.txt AnotherPath: C:\Users\nUserXyz\Documentseporteport.txt" Root Cause The issue arises because backslashes and other escape characters are special chara

Hi Team, I have used Process HQ in development environment and built some components including reports, dashboards, and insights, from our Development environment to the Test environment. While we are familiar with the standard Appian deployment process, we would appreciate your guidance on the specific steps required to properly deploy Process HQ elements? Could you please provide us with any deployment documentation, best practices, or checklists related to moving Process HQ across environments? is there way to publish it without losing the work we did in dev environment? We want to ensure that all components function as expected after deployment and would appreciate any insight into potential issues or manual steps that may be required. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Also, if we move my AI Classification model from dev to test, do we have to perform any extra checks during deployment? Appreciate your guidance here. Regards, Ranjita
