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. For security reasons I don't want this to happen. What can we do to disable this option?

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

I want to assign a task to another user, and Appian sends an email to notify them. I'd like to configure the email to add a specific body. Do you know if this is possible? As far as I know, it's not, so I've unchecked the "Notify task assignees of the new task via email and mobile push notifications, if applicable" option and then added a smart email sending service. I'd like to do this in the same user input task. Thanks in advance.

Hello All, I have a 2 column layout. in left section I have a tree with multiple node like shown in below. Category1 Interface1 Interface2 Category2 Interface3 Interface4 Interface5 In right section I have to display the selected node's interface. For example if "Interface1" node is clicked then it should call an expression rule which returns the interface name to be loaded for that node. Now as expression rule returns string value, I am not able to render that interface in right section. Please note  - Each node has associated interface and entire list is maintained in records. On tree node click that expression rule finds the interface name for selected node. Kindly help if there is any other way to achieve this? Thanks in Advance.

We have a column in the Appian database table with data type as 'long text'. We want to facilitate storing and retrieving string around 8000 characters size in this table column. This will be a master data and will not be fetched in interfaces. (Also it may not always be 8000 in string length) But we will fetch this column in the expression rule for some evaluation and running rules. We are noticing that this column with long text is getting truncated in the expression rule when we retrieving the data. Our Record Type does not show any option to select "Extra Long Text" when creating a Record Type from this database table. This documentation indicates that we should be able to map the varchar or text to 'Extra Long Text' https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.1/about-data-sync.html Am I missing anything here?
