New to Appian

Currently, the videos only have subtitles in English, and as a Spanish speaker, having subtitles in Spanish would greatly facilitate my learning process.Is there a feature within the platform to enable subtitles in other languages, or do you have plans to offer this option in the future?I look forward to your response.Best regards,

In my form there is radio button and a drop down list due to which the process model is stuck

Hi, I am a new Appian employee and I just wanted to understand how many environments do we usually have in Appian where to deploy our applications? What are their most important features? Are there some best practices to follow in using them? I know there are the development one and quality (or testing) one for building and testing the applications and the production one where the applications run, but is there a link to a more specific documentation of the differences between them? I couldn't find it. Thanks for all the help!

Hello everyone,We’re a software development company exploring Appian and its capabilities for building and integrating financial applications.As part of our work in fintech, we’re particularly interested in understanding how Appian can be used to integrate third-party financial APIs, including payment gateways, banking APIs, KYC/identity verification services, and transaction-processing platforms.We’d love to hear from experienced Appian developers:What are the best practices for fintech API integrations in Appian? Which approach do you recommend for integrating external financial APIs? How do you typically handle API authentication, security, error handling, and data mapping? Are there any Appian resources or real-world examples you would recommend for developers getting started?We’re currently learning more about Appian and would appreciate any insights or recommendations from the community.Thanks in advance!

Hello Community,I am facing a issue while exporting data from appian entity to excel file using power query. When the data set is increasing to be around more than about 10,000 rows, few columns are not populating or going missing in the file. When the reduce the data by limiting pagination, it is working fine. I am not sure on the limitations or I did not get any solid information online. Any body else facing same issue, please help.

I want to be able to create acquisition templates 

As far as I can tell, I have followed the instructions to the letter. But my results are not the data from the Vehicle record. In fact, when I went and looked at "W0420AA_QR_getVehicle" and tested the inputs, I found that the result is always an ID or an array of IDs, never the record data. What did I miss? What am I doing wrong?

Good evening, I have been going through the developer learning path.  On the course to start developing an application as a step by step, I appear to be missing the main tutorial application that is referenced in the guide (acme-sport-equipment-rental).  I see the solution, but not the practice app.  Any thoughts or guidance would be great.  Thanks.

I have been trying to go through "Appian Developer" learning path. However, it appears that my Appian Community Edition environment is not set up correctly. I discovered this when I got to "Design Record Types: Model and Configure Your Data". The sample applications are missing. So I tried to create my own app as a way to keep moving forward. However, when the AI wizard arrived at the "Data" stage, there were no data sources available.  I am just stuck and frustrated, and I feel like I am being ignored. NOTE: I have already reached out to Appian Academy <training@appian.com> and Appian Community Edition <communityedition@appian.com> last Wednesday. But I have only received automated responses.

I am currently working through the Appian developer learning list, and have come to the Visualize Your Data: Reports and Dashboards lesson (https://academy.appian.com/#/online-courses/816ad062-560d-4de5-a764-531290a3e562), however there appears to be no content whatsoever. Appreciate this could be a issue specific to me, however the reviews are all very negative so figured it may not be. If anyone is able to confirm the issue/let me know where to raise it to, that would be perfect .

I am using Community Edition and  following the Appian Developer path. In for Step-By-Step # 5 I encounter a problem with selecting the database for the "Vehicle" Record Type. I followed all the steps1-4 and facing above change in Step 5. Appreciate any help/suggestions 

Hi all, I've started the new developer learning path which launched 2 days ago. When I attempt to navigate the ACME SPORT EQUIPMENT RENTAL SOLUTION application I get the following error: "Record type is marked as synced, but its data has not yet been synced or its existing synced data has been invalidated. Contact your system administrator"I have gone in and checked this record type specifically and others related to it and they all have the same issue. The sync history shows a failure and I am unable to run a manual FULL SYNC. Attempting to change the data source on the record type I get the following error: "The data source cannot be reached or its configuration is invalid. Please contact your system administrator."I have reached out to communityedition@appian.com and am awaiting a response. Please let me know if anyone has any ideas or if I find a solution I'll come back here to post my progress in case it helps anyone in the future. 

Hi all, I am following the Appian Developer path and for Step-By-Step # 5 I encounter a problem with selecting the database for the "Vehicle" Record Type. I do not see any database tables. When I go to the reference app and want to see record type source configuration I get: "The data source cannot be reached or its configuration is invalid. Please contact your system administrator." I am using us.appian.community edition. Could you please let me know how to resolve this issue? thank you.

Hi Community, I have prior experience working as an Appian Developer for about 1 year, and after a career break, I have recently revised the Appian tutorials and refreshed my knowledge. Could you please share some commonly asked Appian interview questions that reflect current industry practices (for example, on record types, queries, process models, activity chaining, and best practices)? This will help me prepare more effectively for upcoming interviews. Thank you in advance for your guidance!

Hi All, I am working on an Expense Reimbursement System POC in Appian. We have three different user roles: Employee, Manager, and Finance Team, each with separate interfaces. I need to implement an AI chatbot in all three interfaces that can answer user questions based on claim data. What is the best approach to design and integrate role-specific chatbots in Appian? Should each interface have a separate chatbot configuration, or can we reuse a single chatbot with dynamic context? Also, how can we ensure the chatbot responds based on the logged-in user’s role and related data? Thanks in advance.
