Hi Appian folks,

I was trying to go through Appian documentation and academy for creating a custom function plug-in. I had a question:

  • Trying to import "com.appiancorp.suiteapi.expression.annotations" on IntelliJ for Java class. It is unable to recognize the "com.appiancorp" library. We might need a JAR file for "com.appiancorp" package. I am trying find the JAR file to download but unable to find it. Am I missing anything here?
  • Also, is there any other approach that you could suggest to get the appropriate libraries to create a custom plug-in for Appian via. IntelliJ?

The Appian documentation says: "The bundled Plug-ins that are included in the product installer are contained in a file named appian-bundled-plugins.zip."

This means: Download the Appian installer to get it.

Thanks Stefan. I read the documentation about getting Appian downloaded on a local machine and with that we can get Appian libraries as well. This helps a lot!
