Hi, We are creating performance test scripts in JMeter, after recording the flows and running them, the scripts run fine for 1 day however they fail after 1 day, on inspecting I came across several dynamic values like CacheKey, SaveInto and Context which change often.  Now the problem is there are several CacheKeys, SaveInto and Context in multiple responses before the requests where these values are used, how can I know which values to grab dynamically and use in the further requests.  Can anyone please help as this is a blocking issue! PS- I have already handled the appian csrf token and I am able to login successfully.

Hi, I need to pull values from DB which does not starts with "ABC" for example. a!queryEntity(entity: cons!entity,query: a!query(filter: a!queryFilter(field:"office",operator: "not starts with", value:"ABC"),pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: -1))) But this is ignoring null values, I want null values also to be returned along with other values. So I just tried fetching only null values to see how it works.  a!queryEntity( entity: cons!entity, query: a!query( filter: a!queryFilter( field:"office", operator: "is null" ), pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: -1) )) this is giving me 0 results. Nots sure what might be the issue. Can anyone please help? operator "not null" returns correct values, problem is with fetching null only.

So I was finally able to get some phone number validation working. However, it only works in the interface and not when I'm actually using the record action. Here's the code the error message I'm getting. I think this is happening because the record action relies on user input and perhaps starts off as null. I'm just hoping there's a way to fix it.When I try to create a new contractor through the record action: Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = 0932b:f622d] in rule 'ds_createcontractor' at function 'search' [line 65]: A null parameter has been passed as parameter 2. a!textField( label: "Phone Number ", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: "### - ### - ####", saveInto: ri!record['recordType!{d327a5dc-18d4-4ffd-8bdf-6a22b134677f}DS Contractor.fields.{f4c57b1e-a70b-4b5c-abfd-91fbfa77c38f}conPhoneNumber'], ref

Regarding configuring an Appian Server, we are aware of the following configurations' default/recommended values:   vm.max_map_count=262144server.conf.processcommon.MAX_EXEC_ENGINE_LOAD_METRIC=120   If we were to fine-tune these values, is there an ideal formula we can follow?   Also, what possibly could be the merits in raising/lowering those values? Meaning which parts of Appian will be affected and how far will it improve Appian performance?

Hi all, what is the difference between Build Apps Faster with Sync vs Disable sync and related features. Thanks & Regards, Kiran Sajjan 

So, I need to use visibility/showWhen to display a dropdown if a certain choice of radio button is selected. The format is kind of like this, the two dropdowns are supposed to be hidden until 'Yes' is selected in the group of the second radio buttons. This is currently the code I have. I'm still fairly new to Appian and trying to figure things out! I have experience w/Python/C#/Vis Basic so explaining in those terms could be helpful as well if( a!radioButtonField(choiceLabels: "Yes"), showWhen:true()

Hi everyone! I'm a product manager at Appian and our team is working on measuring which recent features have helped you the most in Appian, what's still slowing you down, etc. If you have 5 minutes to spare, we would greatly appreciate your participation in this survey--thank you! 

I have a process model and interface set up so when user clicks save and continue it exits the form to write to DB then a XOR gate that checks the user action, if it's save & continue it loops back to the interface. All of the nodes are activity chained. But for some reason it keeps exiting out of the interface instead of just loading it back up. Could it be because there are a lot of writes to database so it's delaying the loop back? I do have less than 50 nodes.

when having the nested cdts a foreign key relationship is established what will be default cascade behaviour is?

Hi, I'm new to Appian technology, but I arrive from a different BPM. In Appian for more processes, I need to have an organization chart where there are offices and people that respond from request made by different people, In my example, people from office 1 respond to requests by office A, but for a specific human task activity is assigned to the first level manager, in our example is the CFO, but if the request is open from Office B the request must go to Office 3 and CTO. the hierarchy of the company is very large, is there a smart way to create logic or do I need to create groups and subgroups for each office?
