I have nine different category types for any given main process. The requirement is to create an Excel spreadsheet with each category appearing in its own sheet. What should be the best approach to achieving this? Currently, I am creating an excel for the first category and then using that same excel for the subsequent categories in Export DSE to Excel smart service to add a new sheet via sheet number. But this process is sequential and not efficient enough if each category has a huge amount of data. I attempted to generate Excel for each category and use the merge excel document smart service, but it did not work as I thought it would. Basically, it is dumping all category data onto a single sheet.

Do we need verify each Data Store every time when we change Data Source in Appian?

There a CDT with number of fields, I'm trying to update one field X as Array. In this case when I try to publish my Datastore it creates a separate table with random table naming and fields to store multiple values of field X. Is there a way we can give our own naming for that table being created in the above case. I have tried downloading the DDL script and try editing table name and field, But that doesn't seems working. Can anyone give me an insight why it's taking the random table name or is there any workaround in the above case ? Thanks in Advance

If isReachable throws an IOException in Java, what is the right step to do and why? The application, I believe, should halt the process and output the system message: the host is not accessible. Because isReachable throws an IOException, the host cannot be reached. But I'm not sure what the solution is. I would be grateful if you could assist me. Thank you very much

Hello Appian people, local!arr:{1,2,null,3,null} loca!val:{1,2,3,4,5} I have a function that gets null indexes in an array local!arr then used that indexes to remove the value from the local!val array. and also remove the value found in the local!arr.  /*Get null indices */ local!getNullIndices: a!forEach( items: local!arr, expression: if(isnull(fv!item), fv!index, null()) ), local!removeNullIndices: remove( local!getNullIndices, where( a!forEach( items: local!getNullIndices, expression: if(a!isNullOrEmpty(fv!item), true, false) ) ) ), /* Removed found null in data item array */ local!data: remove( local!arr, where( a!forEach( items: local!arr, expression: if(a!isNullOrEmpty(fv!item), true, false) ) ) ), local!updatedVal:remove( loca!val, removeNullIndices ) expected value for updatedVal is: {1,2,4} Do you have any ideas to optimize this implementation?
