Hi , We have a requirement with the third party(old system) to have csv with comma delimiter delivered with data enclosed in double quotes. Below is sample data: Data in Database table: column1 column2 column3 testdata11 testdata12 testdata13 testdata21 testdata22 testdata23 Expected export of csv by third-party should look like below "column1","column2","column3" "testdata11" ,"testdata12" ,"testdata13" "testdata21" ,"testdata22" ,"testdata23" This was not possible 2 years back with smart service "Export Data Store Entity to csv" so we ended up 1. creating an expression rule that queries data from database and concatenates data of each column and each row with double quotes. 2. generate a text string 3. pass the text string to "Text doc from Template" smart service that creates a csv as expected by third party But the problem is as the data keeps growing ,

Hello, we're attempting to use the "Word Doc from Template" Smart Service on a Merged word document, but the smart service only replaces the placeholder from the first document that was merged. For example if we have 3 docs with placeholders, merge them, then run the Word Doc from Template Smart Service, the output document will only have replaced the placeholders that were contained within the content or the first document. We've checked all of the formatting of the placeholders in the XML and everything looks correct. The issues aren't caused by what's outlined in this KB document. Any idea what might be causing this? Merge document plugin community.appian.com/.../dynamic-document-generator

After the 22.2 upgrade our processes that use Send File Over SFTP is not working correctly. We confirmed the file is being generated as it is being stored in the expected folder in Appian and process is running successfully but the file is not being placed/sent in the SFTP/MFT site configured. We confirmed that the service account we are using have access to the target directory in the site. We also checked with the SFTP/MFT administrator for the logs and confirmed that the file we generated in Appian is not being received in the site. Our processes that retrieves files in the site then loads to Appian doesn't have any issues. We are currently using the 2.2.2 version of SFTP Functions plugin.
