Hey there! It's been 18 months since we launched the Appian Certification program. Now that A-scores have completely retired, we're embarking on updating the certification exams and starting with Associate Developer. A team of Appian developers recently put together a revised list of test objectives and topics, and we'd like your input as well. The results of this survey produce an "Exam Blueprint," which will influence which topics make it to the final exam and how many questions we ask under each topic.  We have a short turnaround on these surveys as we need to perform analysis of the results and provide to the exam writing team who will start very soon. The survey should take you about 20 minutes to complete, and ends Tomorrow (November 16th) at the end of the day.  Please find the survey here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaaE4bBqkpKiDlFMeBOZmrJHiC0kqqqB71QQC7CDXKJo4O-A/viewform If you missed it, then no worries. We'll be doing

I ran into small copy and paste typo in Appian 22.3 docs. Don't know where to submit this, I know it's not really a question. Hope someone can route this to right team correct it.  https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.3/Oauth_connected_system.html  https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.3/oauth_client_credentials.htmlIn this case it think it should mention Client Credentials Grant instead of Authorization Code grant.

In a gridField() fed by record data, when you try to use the disableRowSelectionWhen param, record references fail to be evaluated. As an example, we were trying to disable row selection based on a date time in the record data. Originally we had it wrapped in a todate() so we could compare it to a date, but the logic was failing to disable the desired rows. Just for fun we removed the todate() around the record field reference, only to be smacked with an error about not being able to compare Null to a date. That's right, the record reference evaluated to Null. For more fun, we tried using fields that were not dates, and the same thing happened on integer fields, i.e. the record reference evaluated to Null. Has anyone else run into this?

Is there a way to filter a grid on the rows that you selected or have not selected. Use case being if your grid is really large and data are on multiple pages. When you go through pages selecting items, maybe you want to filter by selected items to see all the items you've selected? Is there a way to make a selected filter? Not sure if this can be a user filter.

Hello all, Is there a function or process within Appian to store and specific value for every user? (Similar to session variables in.Net,) the use case is: We have a dropdown with general values in our main page, so depend on the value selected all the subsequent pages needs to take care of that value. We want to store that value selected for every user in his own session. I did some research to use constant, but for this we need to create constant in sail code (in appian it's no possible, only update), it's not a good approach. Another thing that we discuss was to pass the value as a rule input in every object (interfaces, query rules, Process Models, etc) not sure if its a good approach since the user can go directly to other pages (saved as bookmark) even if no value is selected, but it's a must for our app. Another approach that we are thinking it's storing the value in a "customfield 1" but the function doesn't work "a!updateUserProfile()".

Hi.  On write to datastore for overwriting an EXISTING record I am getting the following error.  ids for this class must be manually assigned before calling save(): I see plenty of posts saying enable autogeneration, but don't feel this is appropriate given no autogeneration should be occurring on this entry and it already has a primary key filled in. If such a thing did work after enabling autogeneration, it seems to me that would mean something is going wrong and a completely new Entity is being saved. Am I wrong in this understanding?

Hi, here from line 515 if condition is executing but it's showing only highlighted one not the remaining conditions. it has to show the remaining list of data but not showing what might be the reason for that 

My Appian Community Edition site seems to have disappeared. Instead of the usual link to my instance, there's a "get my site" button. Did something happen to the servers?

Is it possible to capture the page level action?    Eg : When submit button is clicked - We get - "Action Completed" Message or Eg: When submit button is clicked - "Field 1 is a required field" How do we capture the messages? 

Both the a!startProcessLink and a!startProcess functions state that the "processModel" parameter accepts "a constant referencing the process model or a process model UUID" However, when we try to pass a constant of type Text with a process model UUID to the processModel parameter, we get a generic "The process does not exist, has been deleted, or you do not have permission to start it." When we pass a constant of type Process Model (using the same process model) to the procesModel parameter, we are able to start the process as expected. Do these two functions still accept UUID in the processModel parameter? If so, what are we doing wrong?

Hi, I'm looking for some developers who can spare a few minutes of their time to fill out this survey. Please know this survey will not be used for any monetary gains whatsoever. It's a little research that I'm doing for a project of mine.  The link; https://tally.so/r/nPRR1Q Thank you in advance.
