New to Appian

Hi All, I have started a YouTube channel  Low Code Basics where I will be discussing many objects and concepts related to Appian. It's new so you may not find it easily. Try using filter in YouTube like this week Do check out this video, if you are yet to create a CDT from Database and Appian https://youtu.be/9VFwQsWt_GQ Already created a CDT but getting problem in adding a new column (JPA Annotation), checkout  https://youtu.be/KjonB161hYg   Creating your first Appian Interface, this can help you in it https://youtu.be/Nh4uRJPKJwl Let me know if the links don't work. Please share if I am doing any mistake in the video, I will correct it. Thanks

Hii everyone how to inserted data in CDT from editable grid?

Hi, I have a table ( a grid) to display certain fields from the appian cloud database. In the database there are many tables and views(probably more then 100s).

How to back trace in appian to get the table name( or any other thing.)  Thanks.

Question about process model and web api? After creating a process model. Is there a way to invoke the process in the Web API, and then  receive the response process  result synchronously, and process it as a Web API response later. Thank you.

Hi,  I am deploying an application from dev environment to test environment. There is a link in the record type which is autogenerated when the record Type was created and grid view was configured to the database. Now when I did Direct Deployment to the test environment, the Link which is stored in a constant does not changes and neither the deployment system gives any error. I changed the link manually in the test environment and it works fine. But I want to know about better ways  to handle this. can any one help ?

Question regarding Data Sync of Record Type. In the current Record Type, It seems Data Sync is only done,  (1) when the Record Type is created,  (2) when manually perform "Start Sync" from Data Sync,  (3) At one specific time of everyday setted in the Sync Schedule.

I ask because the Advanced Appian Developer course is deprecated.

I saw such a example code in APPIAN DEVELOPER course practice document. (Expressions: Transform Your Data, Build an Application: Step 4) I couldn't understand why if() coukd take arguments more than 3. The usage of if() should be "if(condition, valueIfTrue, valueIfFalse)" according to official doc. proper( if( isnull(ri!user), "", isusernametaken(ri!user), user(ri!user, "firstName") & " " & user(ri!user, "lastName"), joinarray(split(ri!user, "."), " ") ) )/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/62/_AD30E330D730C130E330_.PNG

Hi,Everyone I am new to appian .When i'm using appian cloud environment unexpectedly appian cloud environment cannot work.Like below of screenshot.How to fix it? Plz help. Thanks.

There is a "Generate A Record Action" function in Record Type. When Generating New Action some objects are newly created. And for Data Store, Group and Folder, it's able to replace to existing object. But, other objectcs are all newly made and cannot be replaced to existing objects. Why can I not use existing CDT at "Generate New Action" in Record Type ? Also I want the interface to go into interface folder, and rule to go in to rule folder which I already have created. Hope these functions get added in the next update. Thank you.

Hello, I am new to Appian, have been working with it for a few months.  Have done the developer training and studying for my CERT. I have a request where they would like to put data in a Excel spreadsheet and then have a interface to click a import button and have the system import the Excel data into cloud databases.  The would like to add data into Excel and then when done do the import. Trying to wrap my hands around this and figure out if it can be done and confused when looking through the Documentation. Can someone let me know if this can be done and point me to documentation that shows it and explains it. Thank you

Hi, I have a interface which displays all the data from the record type. And I have a process model which retrieves the data from integration. When I'm doing this facing error showing on the interface.  Could any please tell what would be the best way to handle this.  

how to active our Appian community Edition site ?when the site is inactive after 5 days.

Hello Is it possible to support View Template functions such as 'tiles' in the interface object? Purpose:In the case of multiple people developing. Want the developer to focus only on the interface part that the developer is working on.And not worry about other layouts. ex) When 'developer A' is working on the red box interface part, there should be no difference made to the grean and pink box. For now, the layout changes as what goes into the red box. Thank you.

GM: Just learning Appian as a business analyst. I have a basic app built, one CDT integer field as a array for documents, with the subsequent Appian-generated table for the "many" if the user loads more than one document. How do I display the list of documents for a particular record from that array field? I'd also like to use a link field so another user can download one of the documents if needed. I've seen the editable grid pattern from other developers but I was hoping for a simpler solution since I'm still learning, and don't have a coding background?? thx in advance Current code for single document but doesn't work for multiple: a!textField( label: "Revised/additional documents", labelPosition: "ADJACENT", value: if(rule!APN_isEmpty(ri!record['recordType!Saving.fields.{folderId}folderId']),"-",document(ri!record['recordType!{Saving.fields.{folderId}folderId'],"name")&"."&document(ri!record['r

Getting null as output when I'm doing aggregation.

I created a data grid to display from a database table, and allow me to add new entries using an associated interface. The data grid gets its data via a data store that is linked to the underlying MariaDB database. I had created some dummy records using my data grid and its associated data entry interface. Consequently, to clean it up, I went into the MariaDB and deleted the dummy rows from the database table. However, the data grid still shows the rows I deleted.  It is only when you try to open the row in the associated interface to modify the row, that you notice that there are no values for the fields. Can anyone explain how this might be occurring?  Is the data cached somehow in the data store object or perhaps the record type object? Thanks heaps, David
