On the Discuss page, select a category you would like to post a topic or question. Click the ‘Just Ask’ button, fill out the appropriate information, and click the ‘Post’ button. Please try to add as much detail as possible to help the Community better understand and assist with your question.

In the Description field, you can drag the file or image into the editor. You can also click on the ‘Insert’ menu item and select the ‘Insert image/video/file’  or ‘Insert code’ option.

A reply becomes a verified answer when the post author clicks the ‘This helped me’ link on the reply. A reply becomes a suggested answer if a Community member clicks on the ‘Suggest as answer’ option on a response. If multiple Community members indicate they have the same question by clicking on the ‘I have this question too’ button and then ‘Vote Up’ a specific response, that reply gets elevated from a suggested answer to a verified answer.

Verified answers are identified by a green check-mark and suggested answers are identified by an orange check-mark.

A tag is a keyword or phrase that describes or categorizes content. You can add one or more tags to discussion posts. Make sure to only use relevant tags in your post. For example, in a post about a SAIL recipe, you might add the tags: SAIL, recipe.

Tags are also added to content in other areas of the Community and can be used to navigate content in the Knowledge Base, The Appian Playbook, and resources in the Partner area. A tag cloud is displayed in these areas. The more frequently a tag is used, the larger it appears in the tag cloud.

The Appian Community is the place for accessing resources, communicating with peers, and growing your Appian knowledge.  To provide the best experience for all members we ask for adherence to the following guidelines when participating in the Community.  These guidelines are intended to provide protocols for engaging in the Appian Community and do not replace the terms of use for the Community.

• Be respectful, courteous and keep communications professional. The Appian Community is global and open on a variety of topics. Participate in the Community in a polite, constructive and positive manner.
• Content is public and therefore do not post confidential or sensitive information in posts or comments.  Represent your corporate brand by adhering to what you are permitted to share.  
• Represent yourself authentically. Provide as much information in your profile as you would like to share with your connections. We recommended that you post a photo of yourself or an avatar that represents you.
• Share expertise with others and be open about your knowledge. The Appian Community is all about collectively sharing knowledge and resources.  If you know a solution to a question that’s been asked respond to the post.  If a Community member has answered a question that has helped you, please mark their response as ‘This helped me’.  
• Be relevant in your posts and replies based on the subject of the discussion.  Leverage the Community search features before posting and when responding to others do so constructively and avoid hijacking a post for a different question.
• Do not solicit business or use the Community to market your company’s services or products.  Spam, promotions, marketing links or links to content that requires subscription fees to read is not allowed.
• Be accountable for your work and posts on Community. Though we encourage sharing expertise, using Community as a source for plagiarism or cheating is not tolerated. All work must be original. Posting of exam questions on Community for assistance from the public is considered cheating and will result in barring from credential exams in the future. 
• Provide feedback correctly by using the appropriate channel.  Appian Community discussions are meant for collaborative conversations but is not an official support channel.  For escalations to Appian Product Support use one of the contact methods listed on the Support page.  For Community feedback or to report rule violations, moderate the content or email community@appian.com.
