My Community Profile
How do I update my Community profile?
Once logged in, click on the avatar in the upper right-hand corner and select ‘Profile’. Click on the Edit Profile link and enter the information you would like to add or update.
Note that your email address is visible in the read-only view but is not editable.
Which profile information is publicly visible?
All Community users can view your avatar, display name, about section, interests and skills, and your community activity (e.g., posts and replies). If you have an Appian Certification, that badge will also be visible on your profile.
Connections are users you choose to share your profile information with and can view your entire user profile except for your email address and primary member organization.
What is my Connections list and how do I add members?
Connections allow you to associate with others in the Community. Connected members can view profile details about each other and can exchange private messages.
To add a Connection, navigate to the user’s profile by searching for them in the Advanced Search or clicking on their display name on the content they have authored. Click on the ‘Connect’ button and complete the form on their user profile page. The member will be notified about the connection request and can accept or deny the request.
What is a private message and how do I send one?
Private messages enable you to send private notes to your Community connections. Click on the Messages icon on the header, select ‘New Message,’ and complete the form. Note in the Recipients field you will only be able to select your Connections.
What are Achievements?
Achievements are awarded to Community users based on the user’s involvement in certain activities in the Appian Community. View the full list of Community Achievements here.
