Hi people, I have requirement where i need to find the X path of an XML file. We have functions to retrieve a value using the X path. But our requirement is retrieve the X path instead of the value, So that the user will use that and cross verify the xml file whether its matching. Here is an example. Input: <Document> <customer> <details> <name>xyz</name> <address>abc</address> <contact> <phone>45667778</phone> <employee> <company> <department> <id>6786</id> </department> </company> </employee> </contact></details> </customer></Document> Output: for Retrieving the name XYZ this would be the X path "<Document><customer><details><name>" this is actual output we require And this is the output we need for nested X path. "<Document><customer><details> <contact><employee><company><depa

I want to add a certain number of zero to the left of an integer number and save it to an Integer rule input..I was using text(value,"0000") this function which gave me exact format but when I save that to an Integer variable , all zeros had been removed. Id type is Number(Integer)for ref:  { a!textField( label: "Text", labelPosition: "ABOVE", value: text(tostring(ri!Id), "0000"), saveInto: ri!Id, refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS", validations: {} ), a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: { a!buttonWidget(label: "save", style: "OUTLINE") }, align: "START", marginBelow: "NONE" )}

Hi Community, I'm working in a project where data ingestion is very important and we get data from csv files. The problem I have at the moment is that with the plug in ps-plugin-ExcelTools in particular with the smart service Import CSV to Database I need to set the charset input (e.g UTF-8 default or UTF-16). Due to the fact that I could receive files in both encoding format, the question is: Is there any solution to get the encoding of a file?  I find a solution saving the document in Base64 into Db and analyzing the string obtained. Does anyone have a smarter solution? Thx in Advance. Bye bye

I'm trying to change the color of the validation in dateField(), but I'm not sure if we can do it. Does any one know if it can be done? Thank you.

Good afternoon, I need to create an Any Type variable in a process to maintain the format. For example, I will send rule!example from the source and I want it to be preserved. It works between rules with Any Type variables, but I can't do it in the process. Does anyone know a way to create Any Type variables in a process? Thank you very much

am encountering the following issue when attempting to start the Appian server as a local instance for plugin development: Error when running engine scripts ERROR com.appian.komodo.engine.KLicenseVerifier - Error starting K: null As per the possible solutions mentioned in the KB article, I have already: Requested and applied a new long team license to my local instance. Verified that there have been no changes in the following: The operating system. The CPU count. The Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). Ensured that no more than one hostname resolves to the local network IP of the machine where the license is installed.

Good morning. Is there any way to know, using the ID of an object, what its dependencies are and which application it belongs to from a rule? Thank you very much.

Can we leverage Appian as the backend for our external application developed using Blazor, enabling access to all Appian resources through APIs, including the standard Appian login, password reset, and password recovery functionalities

Can someone explain why datetext() is returning 2022-11-30 given the input of the date 12/1/2022. I came across this thread which states datetext() is no longer supported however it appears within the latest (24.4) All Functions list within Appian. community.appian.com/.../issue-with-using-datetext-function-in-appian-portals

Hello Community, Following situation: handover didn't go smoothly, so the password for the main Appian Oracle user which holds all tables was lost. The password was changed, and somehow the Data Source for the old configuration was gone in the Admin panel. Not sure how that happened, but I added it on all environments with the correct connection strings again. However, the Data Stores had to be configured anew. This luckily was no problem on Prod, but I am now facing an issue on Dev with a few distinct ones. When I select the Data Source and try to verify, I get this message: "An error occurred while attempting to verify the data store: Type definitions could not be found in the Appian data source for the following type ids: 5504 (APNX-1-4047-008)" So I tried checking the CDTs that are connected to it, and for each one I try I get this error: "HTTP Code: 500 APNX-1-4198-000 Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = HCBTYGS5

Hello,  How can I download a document that is stored in Appian from an external system?Currently, I am document(documentId, "url") to get the document's URL, then storing that URL to a table. My external system is grabbing that URL and attempting to CURL the url to download the file. An HTML document requesting the user to sign in is returned, so I am assuming that I must authenticate to Appian. Is there any documentation that can be pointed out on this process? I could not find anything in the docs.  Thank you

I am new to the Appian platform and am currently exploring the Appian Portals. I have created a portal, but I am unable to publish it as I am being prompted to add a service account. However, I don't have access to create one. To create a service account, I believe I need access to the Administration Console, but I cannot see it in the menu. Is this limitation due to the fact that I am using the Community Edition? Does the Community Edition not provide access to the Administration Console?

Hi All, I have expression rule which contains HTML Code. How to insert Image into this HTML code which is stored Appian Folder without using HTML Template / converting image into base64 / passing web URL? Thanks, Ganesh.

I am currently using Smart Service "Import Excel to Database".  The process works fine if I upload an Excel file with correct column headers and data values. In the excel file I purposefully changed the data values like changing a date value to a text value XYZ, changing Text value to a date value. When I upload this modified excel file: 1. The process does not error out. Process Model is showing everything as success. 2. The incorrect data did not get inserted. But my question is, how do I catch such data errors? I thought the Smart Service "Import Excel to Database" is going give some information on the errors. Please advise this.  In the real world we will not have perfect data all the time. Hence trying to figure this out. Regards, Mahesh

I am just looking at this rule and find this unsupported function can anyone tell me that what is the behaviour of this function .reduce( update_unsupported(_,_,_),{},{} )what we can use instead of update_unsupported to remove (_,_,_)

I have a process for bulk action in a grid, in which there is a MNI, in each instance it writes records to db. I want all records auto update after user submit without extra refresh. How can I achieve this? Currently only one row can be auto updated, rest of all need a refresh to show latest record

Earlier today I was helping another developer understand an issue involving links using a urlwithparameters() function. They were experience an issue where a datetime passed as a query parameter was reading out one minute behind in the linked interface. When I investigated the issue I noticed that the query parameter was showing as a timestamp; however when I ran some small-scale tests I noticed when I passed datetimes as query parameters they were formatted appropriately (see screenshots for context). Ultimately what we discovered is that their use case they were passing two parameters, one an integer ID and the other the datetime. In my testing I was initially only testing with a datetime. When I included a similar integer parameter I was able to get the odd behavior to replicate. The solution for us was to cast the other parameters to strings. What is more interesting is that the behavior only occurs when the datetime is taken from a record. If I replace the datetime query param wit

I have configured showExportButton=true in my grid, I wonder if it is possible to specify the columns I need for export

We are planning to build an application using Appian that will be used by 5 to 10 users. According to pricing, we fall under the ≤ 200 users category, where each user costs $75. My questions are: Do we need to purchase licenses for each user (e.g., 5 users × $75), or is there a minimum user (threshold) purchase requirement that applies regardless of the actual number of users? If there is a minimum purchase requirement, what is the minimum number of users we would need to pay for?

I have connected to the proctor and confirmed my details related to my exam. My proctor asked me to open the camera video, but the camera froze in between the verification process. The proctor asked me to restart my system but the same error is going on. i have try many times but not able to solve the problem, i did not aware with this error before. than proctor told me to connect to the support for retake the exam due to this condition and problem. can i get a reschedule coupon for it

When I try index({1,2,3},{3,4},"") returns {3,null} whereas index({1,2,3},{3,4},{}) returns {3,1}. Looks like when curly brace is put in default parameter, when there is no 4th index, it goes back to start and picks the first index. i don't think this behaviour is captured in documentation either.

I had exam today due to some reason I lost my Internet Connection and proctor told to me we cant start exam due to inconsistency of my Internet and she marked it Incomplete.I have sent email on Appian Certification and Appian Support to have it rescheduled but I haven't heard anything yet. If anyone help me that would be great.Thanks
