How does the Industry filter align with the types?
The Industry filter and categorization on an app primarily applies to Line of Business Apps. The vast majority of Technical Apps will be applicable to All Industries.
What does the Author - “Community Contributor” mean?
These are apps that have been submitted by a member of the Appian Community. They are not necessarily affiliated with the company the individual works for at the time of submission. They can also be updated by another member of the community through the submission/update process.
What are badges?
There are three (3) badges that apps can qualify for.
What about pricing?
Apps are classified as either Free* or Paid. Many of the apps on the AppMarket are free to use with a licensed product and are available to download for Appian customers and partners.
There are some free apps like the Appian Accelerators that are available to prospects and customers but are not immediately downloadable.
The cost of apps designated as Paid varies depending on the app and the author. More information on the cost model for these apps can be obtained from the author via a demo and/or follow-up.
How are Free Apps supported?
Free, downloadable apps are Community supported and should be tested thoroughly. Free, downloadable apps are provided as-is and on a use-at-your-own-risk basis, and their functionality is not guaranteed by Appian. You can learn more by visiting this link in our documentation about shared components (which is another term used for these free apps). "Free - Appian Supported" Apps are an exception and are supported as part of the Appian product offering.
How do I obtain one of these apps?
If you are interested in an app, the available action presented to you will depend on the app and your user type in Community. Note if you’re not logged in, you will be requested to log in first.
Free and Downloadable Apps can be immediately obtained by users with the Customer and Partner user type. Please click on the “Download” button to start the download.
In all other situations, you will see a “Schedule Demo” button. Clicking on that button will send your information to the appropriate Appian representative and they will contact you shortly about your interest and the next steps.
How does liking and rating work?
You can like an app and in some cases rate an app too. Like and rate access will be based on your Community user type and the app.
How do I submit an app to the AppMarket?
Free and paid apps of all types can be submitted through AppMarket Submissions.
