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.

local!combinedCriteriaResults: a!flatten( { local!test1.criteriaResults, local!test2.criteriaResults, local!test3.criteriaResults, local!test4.criteriaResults } ), Local variables show there is two items with the same criteriaCode. How can I remove one item and leave the other with the same code?

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

Hi,  I need to get all the email addresses of the users in the application. I need this list in the dropdown field. Can someone please help here?Thanks in advance!

If enough app users upload excessively large profile pictures—and those profile pictures are then used in grids, for example—their application can bog down or crash. Can you limit users to smaller profile picture uploads, downsize pictures upon upload as needed, or create a thumbnail of the original picture for apps that use them? If there's some other way to address this ourselves, lmk. David Kessler

I am creating an MVP that requires users to add specific records for sites and buildings while using the mobile app (offline and online).  My current roadblock is when I'm creating a new building record that needs to be associated with a specific site.  In the create new building interface, there is a site drop down list that a user can select before adding a building name/number. For testing I have two ways to initiate the create building record action.  The first way is through the building record list site page (using the Record List Action to initiate the process), and the second way is through a site page that initiates the create building action.  In the latter setup, when selecting a site I receive an "Invalid Rule UUID field:..." for line 13 in the picture provided. I appreciate any help or insight into this issue.  Thanks!

Hello Team, I have build an editable grind and now I want to save the values inside my records. I have record table and rule input in my interface the problem is how I can save this data for each request I have. The data is a sample there are around 15 rows which I want the user to be able to save some of them can be null some of them can be filled out. Basically the property is read only, once user enter value we can use a!save to save the property for the respective row, but I always get cannot index rule input records.. rows: { a!gridRowLayout( contents: { a!richTextDisplayField( labelPosition: "COLLAPSED", value: { a!richTextItem( text: {"Melting Point"} ) }

I exported the whole app package from lower env and deployed it to higher env, but some groups were missing after deployment. I'm sure they were in lower env, and they are no new groups,  they were in higher env before deployment. I saw conflict about the missing group, could this be the cause? But if these groups fail to import their old version should be kept right? How come I couldn't even found them in objects.

Hello, I'm trying to reference an interface that exists in another dev environment. We have two dev environments. Dev A and Dev B What I'm trying to do is reference an interface in Dev A in an interface I created in Dev B. I don't have any duplicates of that interface in Dev B and I don't think I can import it to Dev B since it might conflict with policies we have. Is there a way to reference the interface from Dev A in Dev B without having to import the object or duplicate it? Thanks in advance.
