Hi, Here I am having one dropdown if I select Exclusion there then category,type and add exclusion button will be visible. But when I click on add exclusion button in next category and type are getting duplicated I dont want that I want to select other exclusion and Type differently . How can I achieve it? Code: local!set: if(a!isNotNullOrEmpty(local!exclusionList), index(local!exclusionList.set,1,{}), {}), saveInto: { a!forEach( items: local!exclusionList, expression: a!save( local!exclusionList, append( local!exclusionList, a!map( set: local!set, coveragetoRoleId: ri!basCoverageToRole['recordType!{33c2cbea-4c4e-4288-9d10-d6107f847a76}UWG Coverage To Role.fields.{c8b1b4ee-b5f4-494d-bcf3-763d83073e71}id'], standardUWSupportCodeRefId: null, exclusionText: "" ) ) ) ) },

Hi, We have an a!documentViewerField component to display a PDF document, but the problem is that it shows editing options to download and print it, and we have been asked to disable these options. Is there another component that allows PDF documents to be viewed in read-only mode, only displaying the document without allowing it to be downloaded or printed? Or is there a way to configure this from Appian? Thanks These are the actions that can be performed on the PDF file. This is component we use

Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to check whether the value stored in a local variable is a record type instance, so that I can use the a!keys() function to retrieve the list of fields and then index through it. Unfortunately, the code below returns a unique UUID for the record instead of something generic like "Record Type" that I could check against using a simple if condition. typename( typeof( ABC Comment( id: 1, comment: "test" ) ) ) Also, if anyone knows an even better solution to check not only for record types but for any type that can be accepted by the a!keys function (e.g. record type, map, dictionary etc), that would be great. Thank you!

Hi All, I have a requirement; we need to store the document in S3, or at times we need to read the document (.xlsx) and present it in a grid format. Sometimes, it contains 1 million rows. Is it possible to fetch the data in batches while reading the document from S3, or is there any other alternative approach to achieve this? without impact any performance.

Product: Appian Area: Interfaces → Plug‑ins → Grid Plus Layout (gridPlusLayoutField) Appian version: [e.g., 25.3] Database: MariaDB Problem Summary I’m displaying data in Grid Plus using gridPlusLayoutField + gridtextcolconfig, with the grid sourced from a query rule (Record DataSubset).

Hello Community, I am encountering an issue when trying to access my application. The error details are as follows:

I am getting below error in a node where export CSV "Export data store entity to csv" we are using to export from view. I have checked the view performance ( which is good) and the table data its having only 3800 rows . I am not able to find out the reason of failure as this error is not captured in the tomcat.stdout log. Error accessing data store entity: OutputView. Please contact a system administrator for additional details. (APNX-1-4505-026) Any pointer to check any other thing which I have not think of will be helpfull.  

Can we modify "search term" in excel after downloading to custom text?

No warning or error message is displayed when the user uploads a file containing duplicate advisor code and Line of business. I need validation message when I am uploading more than 1 entry with same data. a!forEach( items: local!constructData, expression: if( count( index( fv!item[local!constructData.advisorCode], wherecontains( fv!item[local!constructData.lineOfBusiness], tostring(local!constructData) ) ) ) > 1, "Duplicate Line of business", null ) ),

Hello everyone, Is anyone else having a problem with extremely slow file uploading process using the a!fileUploadField component in a form? It literally takes 30+ seconds to upload a 4kb text file. During the uploading, it completely freezes my browser instance. I can't access any other tabs.  Is there a solution?

Hi all, I’m trying to handle failures from the Send E-Mail smart service (e.g. network) in a more user-friendly way. My goal is to display an interface showing the error and its corresponding resolution whenever the email fails, instead of having the process instance suspended. Currently: When the Send E-Mail smart service fails, the process model is suspended. I attempted to: Use a Timer Exception on the Send E-Mail node Place the Send E-Mail node inside a subprocess and handle the exception from the parent model However, both approaches do not work as expected because the subprocess itself becomes suspended when the Send E-Mail smart service fails. Is there any supported way to: Catch or handle Send E-Mail failures (e.g. network issues) without suspending the process, or Route the flow to a failure interface after retries are exhausted? Any guidance or recommended patterns would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Can the text "This message has been sent by Appian" in an email be removed? What steps are needed to remove the text? Thanks

Hi. I have one process configured to export data from a view to excel using the Export Data Store Entity to Excel, but somehow I'm getting this error: Error accessing data store entity: CIP_CrpStatus_VIEW. Please contact a system administrator for additional details. (APNX-1-4505-026), this view is trying to export 4814 records. Has anyone experienced this error before?

Appian 24.1 My project receives a JSON document that is somewhere between 50 - 100 KB in size normally. We jamb it into a Record Type (as a json string), read it from a process model, convert this to a CDT (hierarchy), pass it to an interface (a hierarchy of them really). So far, all that we have built runs fine. Now we had a case where the JSON document was over 1 MB. This threw an error when we tried to write it to a record type. Apparently, there is a record size limit of 1 MB within Appian for tables that sync to record types. So, now we are looking at redesigning the data storage. Clearly, we need to break up/normalize the data into a set of relational tables (vs just 1 table as we have today). But from there I seem to have some options and I don't know what is best Option 1 - Read the record types within the process model and rebuild the JSON object so it may be passed to the interfaces.This moves the max size question from the table row to the process model variable. Can it

Hi, I have a requirement.  In a process model I am having processuuid as a process variable.  Using this I have to start a process by using start process smart service.  How can I achieve this?

Hi Appian community, I know there were similar threads opened 3–4 years ago, and that Appian released a hotfix to address this issue. However, I’m still encountering the same problem in 25.2 with site page visibility. Even when I set the visibility rule to “Only show when” = false(), the page is still visible to System Administrator users. Does this rule always get overridden for System Administrators or other groups?

The workflow diagram in Case Management Studio collapses when a task points back to the previous task (2nd image). The workflow diagram is formed properly when tasks are linearly added one after the other (1st image). Did anyone observe this anomaly? How to resolve it?

I need the content of a windows file (the file is in csv format) in order to eventually send part of the content to an SQL Server database. I was able to upload the file into an appian document using Appian RPA. I'm also able to find the documentID of the uploaded document. I can't find a function/way of converting/loading the content of the document to a map/array. Is there another way of dealing with this? Please let me know, thank you.

Hi all, I got this error in the log by seeing this I can identify this is a error in the process model general tab in localisation but when i checked i didn;t find any process model with this ID 13284 . Is there any chance this error could be somewhere else , any pointer will be helpful as only one user is facing this issue on prod.

Is there a list of all available Appain Example Images somewhere(example: a!EXAMPLE_RECEPTIONIST_IMAGE())? I find them easy to use to quickly put together a POC.
