General

Hello, I have a site with an interface page as content. My interface nested other interfaces and the navigation through all interfaces is based on the logic of local variables. However, in some interfaces I use "a!processTaskLink" to run tasks on already started processes. My problem is: I want to open these tasks in the same tab and when I finish my task, I want to go back to the interface where I was. But, the actual behaviour is that when I finish my task, I go back to the main interface because the values of local variables are lost. Does anyone know how to get around this problem? Thank you.

I'm getting this error in my tomcat stdOut log when I startup Appian. I'm able to go on the site but when I try to run/debug my process model it always stuck on the start node and won't continue the flow. Not sure what went wrong, It worked fine other times when I did a fresh install of Appian. 2021-12-29 20:31:45,319 [ForkJoinPool-1-worker-25] ERROR com.appiancorp.common.config.ConfigObject - An error occurred while trying to initialize the config LoadExceptionHandling [0ms] [resources 27ms] java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Cannot store the note content, because the location is not valid.: C:/appian21.2/_admin/process_notes/exec/00/2/0 at com.appiancorp.process.notes.services.NotesContentServiceImpl.createNoteContent(NotesContentServiceImpl.java:164) at com.appiancorp.process.notes.services.NotesContentServiceImpl.createNoteContent(NotesContentServiceImpl.java:178) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImp

Is there any other way to check the performance of an interface other than the performance tab? I often see interfaces that say they take 100 ms to load (or whatever number) and yet spend 20-30 seconds opening the page. There seems to be some kind of disconnect there and I am trying to figure out where the issue stems. 

here will be selecting one row in grid and showing the below data  but same data in separate section we have multiple selection here how can i show the selection data because I'll be selecting multiple rows here can anyone suggest me the approach

Hello, I have a question, I have an interface which is a grid, this allows me to add a dropdown with information obtained from a constant, this constant has 3 groups, my question is, how can I do so that when I add a new grid, this information from my constant is independent of my dropdown that makes new, all this is written to another constant through a process. I have something like this, I already tried using save to to my new constant, but it is not updated with the process, does not elminate or anything. this is my code. thanks you! a!localVariables( /*rule to save groups */ local!groups: rule!GS1_getgroupnames(), /*rule to get all groups */ local!grupos: rule!GS1_getgroups(), a!formLayout( label: "Manage Additional Distribution List", instructions: "Please select and modify the groups that you wish to update in the grid below.", contents: { a!sectionLayout( label: "Additional Distribution List", contents: { a!gridLayout( label: "", labelPo

Hi, We've got a scenario where we want to provide hyperlinks for the user to access a site page which contains a record list. Is there a way to have filters prepopulated for a record list when the user clicks on the hyperlink, like maybe through passing values via the URL? Or any way to have filters prepopulated at all? I know users can save filters, is there something similar to preset them? I've been looking through the forums and documentation but I haven't found anything yet. Thanks for any help!

I have an application has a lot of objects I don't want to import. Most notably it has a data store which taking it will result in a massive amount of extra data types and baggage. All I care about is a process model I have copied.  All of its dependents have been brought in to a new application I am using to package up and import. I am getting some cascading and normal errors that seem to stem from me being unable to import the datastore.  What can I do to decouple this datastore from my application for importing? I already created a new datastore in my environment I am trying to move export it to and created any constants there that pointed to the data store entities inside it in the old application. In summary what do you do if you want to bring in portion of an app but don't want to bring in the data store entity it had?

Hello,  Is there any workaround using Create User Smart Service.  Non Administrator User to be able to create new users ?

Hi!   We are currently passing in a folderId over a WebAPI call to Appian - from there we are using a!startProcess to run the Document Zipper smart service to zip the folder and output the resulting documentId. Is there a way to allow the resulting zip document to be downloaded via the WebAPI call, or will I have to use some workaround like using an additional GET method to pull the document after using POST to run the smart service? Thanks!
