I have an interface with some dropdowns  The idea is the user selects a drop down which then informs the next drop down list.i.e. drop down one changes the list shown in dropdown two - thats fine and working well,The issue I appear to be having is getting the rule input value to change at the same time for the second drop down (values are expression rule driven) it appears to only update a step late for example if the user selects xyz and this is value of 27 then the ruleInput value will not update until the user changes the selected value to say abc with a value of 88 and then the rule input updates to 27!!! My real annoyance with this is the local variables show the correct values which means that for whatever reason this is not being pulled into the Rule Input at the same time!!!I have taken the time to reconstruct this issue without any specifics below: - Rule inputs: "dropOneRI" as in int"dropTwoRI" as an int"problem" as an int a!localVariab

I know that Appian may not be the best environment for this, but I'm wondering if this is possible. It is possible to create a simple shopping site using Appian? The table design is simple enough: CATEGORY- categoryId- name- description ITEMS- itemId- name- description- price LOOKUP_CATEGORY_ITEM- itemId- categoryId CUSTOMER- customerId- firstName- lastName- street1- street2- city- state- phone- email CART- customerId- itemId I've done this many times before in different languages/environments.This has MANY TO MANY, MANY TO ONE, aggregations and design/ui considerations with this project.I've deliberately ignored the payment portion/part of the project.  

Hi sample Input : {a,b,c},{100,200,300} sample output : a-100,a-200,a-300,b-100,b-200,b-300,c-100,c-200,c-300

in an a!imageField() is there a way to remove the white border that is put around the image when it's put in the interface? 

Previously we were using a hyperlink as a record link to open up a summary view,as per the  customer's requirement the design has been restructured (not using record and record link)and currently we are using dynamic link as a hyperlink to open up a summary interface.The Problem here is that,when we use appian's inbuilt export functionality, as we are not using the record link as a hyperlink,it is just appearing as a text instead of link.Is there is any other suggestion you would give here in order to get back that link in the exported data?

I am using the Write Records smart service in a process model to take the results of a stored procedure (using the Execute Stored Procedure smart service) and update a record and the source table. When I run the process model I get the error "The input "Records" cannot contain multiple records of the same type with the same identifier". In a separate expression rule I have called the same stored procedure, tested the data and verified that there are no duplicate ids created by the expression in the id field. Can anyone tell me why Appian is giving me this error? I have attached the contents of the Records input field in the Write Records smart service.  pv!equipDataModified is a list of map with fields "equipNum", "serviceDays", and "serviceDaysPast" Thanks in advance!

HI, I am working on a daily log kind of project. So i need to 1. Take the start time and end time and calculate the number of minutes between them. eg. 6:15 am  to 8:15 am -> 120 minutes. I tried using the function  minute( todatetime(endTime)-todatetime(startTime) ) but this works only till 60 minutes. i.e. 6:15 am to 7:15 am ->0 min.  Should give 60 mins Also 2. is there any way i can only take the time as input? I have to use a!dateTimeField() Where as i dont want to get concerned with date.  Once the datetime is entered, i can use totime to get only the time. But i want the input itself to be time and not datetime.

 Hello everyone, I am facing this while trying to display group members in an interface within Appian. when we open any group, a specific grid is displayed which shows the members' names, user IDs, and membership types. I am trying to replicate this same grid inside an interface in Appian, but without storing the values. I have a constant that stores all the groups using a multiple dropdowns. When I select any group, I want the members present inside that group to be displayed in a grid along with their details such as membership type and their user ID. However, I am unable to achieve this and would like to request your assistance in resolving this issue. Please let me know if you require any additional information or if any specific configuration needs to be done to display the group members in the desired manner. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hello everyone, When a process model sends out email notifications to everyone it is configured to send said notifications to, is there a way to configure the address it comes from? It is currently "admin@<ourSiteAddress.com>, but we'd ideally like it to be something like noreply@<ourSiteAddress.com>. Is there an easy way to change this?
