Hello Appian Community, We are facing an interesting issue with SAML SSO where we are trying to return the Site the user is trying to access in the IdP response. The reason for this is we have an application with two sites in Appian. Based on user permissions they might have access to one or both sites.  In the scenario they have access to two sites we want them to navigate to the site they click. The issue is Appian can only have one IdP per entityId specified in the MetaData so when the response is returned to the IdP they aren't sure which site it is the user wants to access. Our hopeful solution is to have Appian return, in the response to the IdP, the site the user is trying to access so the IdP can redirect. Is there any possible Appian solution to edit the IdP response? Thank You, Kevin

Hello, We have done setup for the SAML to  get user authorised in GEMI. Now when we are trying to test is with Dummy user and open browser - shift plus right click- run as diffrent user - User is alwasy getting below error Error 401 - Unauthorized Sorry, your request could not be processed. I have checked all settings in Appian also Dev tool is not showing up the Roles whcih are assigned in GEMI. I am not sure if SAML setup in Appian will work like this by running browser as diffrent user . Any pointer will help. Thanks in advance . Pooja

Hi all,do anyone know exact address or  IP adress of appian server which is used for health check analysis. I need this because health check is not working on my appian server because it is blocked on firewall and I need to pass traffic through my firewall to that address. Thank you for informations in advanced.

Hello Everyone, I'm trying to validate some form input passed to Appian - specifically a reCaptcha code.  While I can easily setup the integration call to do this, it requires sending a paired Secret Key as part of the message body.  While the SCS works with connected systems, it only allows me to send the secret as a request parameter OR header.  ReCaptcha, however, wants this token as part of the message body.  My question is: Is there a way to store this Secret key in the secure credential store?  Failing that, is there some other mechanism available to storing this security token in a format other than plain text?

Hi all,Sorry if this is a duplicate question, but I couldn't find anything in the community when searching. I have a process that has stopped on a user input task.  In the process details I can see that the Task Owner is set to the appropriate user, but on the assignment for that specific node I see "Task currently assigned to: " with no value for the assignee. Attempting to reassign the user input task give me the failure message of, "One or more of the tasks could not be reassigned because the task is cancelled, completed, aborted or is unattended." I'm guessing you can't REassign something that doesn't have a current assignee. I'm hoping that there is a way to fix this particular process instance using the Edit Process View, but am not sure how that should be done. Can anyone please help me figure out how to set the assignee so the task can be completed? Thanks in advance!

Hello all! Our team has decided to set up a CI/CD process for our application. The first step is to use Github for version control. So we are going to use Automated Versioning Manager.

Has anyone tried or any references available on how to integrate / authorize identify brokering and social media login to access appian application. Example use case, User does not want to register, just need one time temporary access to appian application. We can use use AWs Cognito OR Azure B2C for oauth / SAML based federated social logins, however we don't prefer to keep temp user accounts pool to activate / deactivate appian account OR increase the user account creation for each temporary login request.

Clarifying what I said above, Is because I want to create a new 'Record Type' , using web service as a data source.  Now, the data source I have is a GET request from BIgQuery API, this returns a JSON that is not well formatted, so I had to format it using map or create a dictionary. I successfully managed to create either the map or dictionary with my data , on a rule, and it shows as key:value on the response now, however, when Igo to my record type and select 'enable syncing'>'Select record data source' and I use the rule I created to format the response as map or as a dictionary, I get this error: 'The Record Data Source cannot use plugins, query rules, or any of the following functions: query, queryEntity, queryProcessAnalytics, queryRecord, queryRecordType.' Does anyone have any insight on that? Or maybe can guide me to get this done on some other way? What I want is to be able to display the data I have on bigquery, on Appian on a site,
