Hi team I'm needing some help with getting an interface together to populate a simple table for collecting survey data. I have a list of software titles divided into categories. Each category will be surveyed individually, until we have gone through the entire list of titles - this is to avoid providing our users with a massive task! Likewise I do not want to send through a task for each individual title in a category. Here is the concept model for what I want to do: The survey result CDT looks like this: I have been thrashing around for the past few days with Editable Grids and Read Only Grids, and am experiencing the following issues: With an editable grid I can put a dropdown into the column but I do not know how to generate an individual row for each title. With a read-only grid I can get the individual row for each title but I do not know how o set up the dropdown or equivalent for my users to be able to choose their response I have tried various approaches and

Hi! I created an interface with cardChoiceField, which allows me to choose one of multiple subinterfaces (via rule!), which I created before. These subinterfaces have a dropdown which value is assigned to a local (to subinterface) variable.  The problem is that when I choose a value in the dropdown it doesn't change the local variable simultaneously - to see the "refreshed" interface, I have to switch to other subinterface, and then turn back to the original. In that case I obtain the subinterface I want, with refreshed variables. Is there any way to do this without switching to other subinterfaces?  I understand that it could be solved using rule inputs, but I would like to know how the interaction with local variables in reusable interfaces work

So I am working toward getting my Senior Developer Certification. One of the major components of the Exam seems to be Database Management. I am well versed with RDBMS but wanted to understand the scope as far as certification is concerned. I see "Appian Advanced Data Design Training". However it is Instructor Led only. There is no self study option. Not only can't I find anything on schedule in the "Americas" for the Instructor led course, I would rather study on my own time. I simply want to know what topics are covered in the Instructor Led course. Hopefully this is public information and can be shared? Thanks in advance

Thought I would ask here to draw awareness. Going through the Portals Course - specifically the Publishing Portals Course. At the end there is a tutorial that needs the Wyndhamm Power Outage Application. Only I cannot find the application in the Appian Community Edition. Did someone at Appian forget? Or am I supposed to find the package somewhere and import it. Hopefully someone has solved this problem already.

How can we add something like an "Upload" or "Preview Document" button on the form that submits (typically without validation), and simply chains back to itself - this will give the user the impression they have not left the form, but turns the document into an official object that can then be previewed.
