Hi, We are planning to use LDAP for users and groups and control Appian security. Do we still need to create the same set of users again in Appian. Can someone advice on this. Thanks

Hi all, We are doing some cleansing in our environments and we want to know what was the last time a process model has been used. I tried the process reports, when analysing the process models, I can't get other than the last modification, but not the last usage. In monitoring or process reports for Tasks, I can get what is currently active or recently active, but not any kind of historical view. In the health check, there is a tab named process sizing that looked promising but does not contain that information either. I wonder if we can get any other source, of in anyone knows in table in the Appian model that we can query. Thanks.

Hello Appian Engineering, Like to suggest : Scenario : When a developer working on any object rules , It could be UI or expression or model Appian always had version from past 12plus years Which is good As we progress it will be good to have save and commit 1. Save basically a developer works whole day in dev and keep saving not to lose his work but that does not mean it’s working and ready for others to use 2. Commit when developer decides it’s ready for checkin and can be used in site other he needs to commit and mandatory to write comments May be a ticket that developer is working against or an enhancement for targeting a particular release Many times we see 100s of versions but more than 75% are just saves of a line change and dev testing how it looks etc and after ten saves developer decides good for real change and closes that piece of work Just compare how eclipse or vscode git integration works Even further shelving concept from Microsoft Having been 12yrs with appi

I am trying to install Appian but I am encountering an error on starting the application server. logs: [View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/12/tomcatStdOutLog.txt:320:240] also tried this https://community.appian.com/support/w/kb/1138/kb-1718-tomcat-fails-to-deploy-appian-or-start-all-services-successfully but the error still exists.

We intend to incorporate Appian into our existing application (development) landscape. Now questions pop up like what do we do with it and what don't we do in the application development area.In terms of application development now more focused on .Net/C# and a few apps on the MS power platform. Adding Appian means additional exploitation costs, investment in knowledge and employees. In terms of application development, should we now focus entirely on Appian and phase out the rest?

Hello,  I have an ask to insert a generated PNG file into an HTML document we generate through the "HTML Doc From Template".  This document is then later converted to PDF which is given to the user. The image generation and PDF generating is working fine, however I cannot get the image to appear in the template.  I've found many older forum posts saying to convert the image to Base64, but it appears the functionality to generate the base64 within a process model has been removed from Appian.  I cannot pre-generate the Base64 as the image itself is generated on the fly and then deleted within the same process. Any ideas? Thank you!

May I know some set Best Practices to be followed to improve the performance of the application(all Appian objects) because I had a scenario where main landing page is taking 20 seconds to load on site Thanks!

When using SAML it appears that sign in links are not displayed. It would be beneficial if these where visible even when SAML is used. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/18.3/Appian_Administration_Console.html#sign-in-page-links A lot of times customers need a way to notify someone that a user account is locked, or needs to be created. These sign in links are great for this use case. But it seems like they do not display when using SAML.
