For a while now we are getting JAXB errors in several different process models with the following error or similar to this error. Difficulty is that even if it will return the same error; where the error happens might be in different parts of the same process model (see below), but mostly it will break on the start process nodes from what I can see. We tried removing special characters or smileys from any fields that are passed to the process with clean(), since we feel like this might be causing the errors, but so far no luck yet. Any help would be appreciated!*Please note that I have redacted a large piece of the errortext for privacy purposes. Including parts that might contain the possibly disallowed characters/smileys etc. In this specific example I think it might have been the character ü, but we have found that it is also possible that the character that will break the process is only visible in our main database (not in the MariaDB) as a blank space which makes findin

Let me explain my situation: I have a workflow where certain actions are performed. When a user, let's say XYZ, initiates the process, they are initially assigned as the assignee. However, I need to be able to change this assignee. To handle this, I've created a separate workflow where I only capture the latest active tasks. From this list, I select the task for which I want to change the assignee. Once I reassign the task to a new user, let's call them ABC, I need all subsequent tasks initiated by input to go to this new assignee. To clarify, after initiating the process, I continue working with the same input task when I am the assignee. However, after reassigning the task through a different process, I need to capture the latest assignee for that process, even new assignee's information is already saved in the database. Please let me know if you need more information or if you have any suggestions.

I am creating a dynamic intake form in case management studio where the visibility of few fields depends on values of previous fields. Without using local variables, I am facing cache issue when the values/selections are changed in the previous fields . In the interface I don't see any submit or save button to pass no the values from local variable to rule inputs. Please suggest how to handle this situation.

Hi Community, I have an issue when I want to deploy a constant to another application.

I want to update a specific row in my recordtype with data in one of the columns as follows:  Here I am using my id (the primary key of the table) to specify which row I wish to update, in this case i want to update case number 80 and update the casestatus column with "accepted", however upon doing so I get the following error:  I am guessing that my syntax is incorrect, but I can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong exactly.

Hello I've used the open task reports to get all the tasks assigned to a user, but the problem is if the user is assigned to multiple application they can see all the tasks in that report.Is there a way to show only tasks specific to application or specific to all the process models from that application and if you can provide some example would be much appreciated.Thanks in advance.

I came accross a behaviour where an appian object(integration) accessed by two different users having parameters data type in two different format Eg: user1 gets the data type format as "mm/dd/yyyy" and user2 gets the data type as "dd/mm/yyyy". Though their internationalisation settings are same and both users are accessing same object . What else could be the scenario for such behaviour? Above are images from two different users using the same objects.

Hi Guys, Do anyone know if we have any replacement function for getgroupuuid(). This function was supported in plugin People function version 1.10 jar but now we need to update it to to 1.16.0 jar. I do not see the support of getgroupuuid() in version 1.16.0 as written in https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/people-functions---plug-in

I know this is a very basic concept and I predominantly understand the purpose of a Primary Key and a Foreign Key. But as I've been learning the concept of a Unique Key came up and I was unable to find a resource that gives me a clear understanding of the purpose of a Unique Key. I would love it if someone co explain the difference while comparing it to Primary and Foreign Keys potentially with some examples if applicable.

Is there an advantage one over the other? In my current project, using the index with the dot is questioned as bad practice, requesting to always use the index() function, my question is, is this really necessary? what are the reasons? I understand that sometimes it is good to control the default value and set a null.

I have a question for those who took the ACD101 exam. ACD100 was revised to ACD101 in October 2023. The reference books currently published in this world are those of "ACD100" (no reference books named ACD101 have been found).  Are the questions asked in ACD101 similar to the content of the "ACD100" reference books, or are they completely different? I bought a reference book for ACD100 without knowing that the exam had been revised, so I am unsure whether I will be able to pass ACD101.

Hi guys, We've installed the Log Reader plugin and until recently it was able read the login-audit.csv file on all our environments. Now, the readcsvlogpagingwithheaders() function fails to return any values on our OAT environment, but works in all our others. I've noticed the path it's trying to read is different on this particular environment.  In OAT, it seems to be attempting to read the log file from: "/usr/local/appian/ae/shared-logs/login-audit.csv" Whereas in the others, it's reading from: "/usr/local/appian/ae/logs/login-audit.csv" Is there anything that could be causing it to try and read from a different directory, and is there a way to change this? It's causing significant issues at the moment and we need to resolve this as soon as possible. Really appreciate any help, Thanks.

Hey Everyone, I am facing an issue while getting the groups for a user. We used to make use of function getgroupsformemberuser() from plugin People function version 1.10 jar We need to update the People function plugin to 1.16.0 jar but in this newest update, getgroupsformemberuser() is not supported. Replacement for getgroupsformemberuser() function looked a!groupsForUser() but result set of both is not matching. When I use getgroupsformemberuser(), I get 70 groups list which is absolutely perfect. When I match with the number of groups for loggedInUser from Users in Appian: It shows 70 users Means, getgroupsformemberuser() output matches with actual groups. But when I use a!groupsForUser() appian built in function, it return 72 groups: Conclusion: Output is not matching as it's returning 2 more groups which I don't have permission to view.  Is there any way that these 2 extra [NO PERMISSION] groups can be removed from this result set? I
