Hi Team, Is there any plugin available for python to integrate with Appian?

Hi All, I have installed the Content Tools plugin and am using the getcontentobjectrevisionhistorydetails function to retrieve version details. I am passing a UUID and filtering the results by the modifiedOn date. However, I am encountering an issue where the modified date field is not correctly reflecting the changes made. For example, when I select the modified date as 2/6/2025, the result from getcontentobjectrevisionhistorydetails is null because it is returning same as created date value, but it should give latest version date value which highlighted in version details below. This can be seen in the information below:  creator "Balavamsikrishna_vinnapala@contractor.amat.com" (Text)              createdon "1/29/25 AM GMT" (Text)              modifiedon "1/29/25 AM GMT" (Text) Version details of one object Created 2/6/2025 10:08 AM by sala vamsi Krishna Vi... 1/29/2025 l

Hi! I have three questions regarding the Excel Tools plugin. Sadly the documentation is not very precise.1. How can we read headers with spaces (Example: a column with a header "User Name")? I found this question in two different threads but they are almost 10 years old, which have links to appian sites that are no longer accessible. 2. One of our clients provides us an excel that is automatically generated, and has +10 columns. I'm only interested in 3 of those columns. Is there a way we can pick and choose which info from the excel we are interested in? I'm using the Import Excel to Database smart service. I'm pretty sure that the "Excel Header Names" and "Database Field Names" parameters might be useful for this case, but I don't understand how to use them properly, and the documentation does not say a lot about them.3. The same excel that I mentioned in my 2nd question starts at row number 3. Row number 1 & 2 have som

Hey, does anyone know how to use this? I tried something like this, but when I selected text on the document, nothing happened. I know it's wrong, but the descriptions from  [mention:d980071ec4a04401afc047d67fdc6548:f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07]   weren’t very clear to me. If someone could guide me on how to use this instead of the smart service, I’d really appreciate it!

How to scan a document directly from a scanner into Appian.

My goal is to write into excel in multiple sheets using the "Export Data Store Entity to Excel" ability. I may write few values from process variables too into the excel sheet - apart from what I have in the database. So I have an excel sheet as template and wanted to leverage the "Custom Cell Positions" and "Custom Cell Values" ability in the "Export Data Store Entity to Excel" smart service to put in the values in the desired position of the excel sheet. I may end up putting atleast 50 values in a sheet. But I keep getting this error, even when I attempt to put couple of values using the "Custom Cell Positions""Custom cell positions cant refer to cells below the starting cell. Otherwise, they would be overwritten by data being exported. (APNX-1-4505-037)" I tried to use this simpler option too and still get the same error.Custom Cell Positions={"A6", "B6", "A7", "B7"}Custom Cell Values

hi,have a question about the Document zipper plugin I have a folder in Appian which I want to zip, the contents of this folder contain PDF documents in the following format: 00000.PDF where the extension is in capital letters. When the process that contains the document zipper node is launched, it creates the zip with all the documents correctly but the documents appear with the extension in lowercase. 00000.pdf Is there a way to keep the extension capitalized like the original documents in the folder? thanks

Hi  I am using Export DSE to Excel smart service. Now in the configuration part, I am using the querySelection to select the columns to be written to the final excel document Now this querySelection takes in queryColumn  Example :  a!queryColumn( field: "opsTicketId", alias: "Ops Portal Ticket ID" ) This alias is basically the header displayed on the excel sheet, but whilst using such aliases containing a ` ` space .. the smart service errors out and as a result I have to use underscore  Is there any way I could retain this space ? I do not want underscores on my header ... need it to be a proper header

We have recently upgraded People functions to v1.16.0 as the previous versions v.1.10.0 and v 1.15.0 were being flagged in Health check with High/Medium Risk for containing Removed/Private/Deprecated Appian APIs. However, even after the upgrade the Plugin is being flagged in health check for using Deprecated APIs: People Functions (psshared.peoplefunctions) references deprecated Appian APIs[deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getUserProfileService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext) Hoping to understand if 1.16.0 would be compatible with Appian 24.4.

Can anyone confirm if we create a custom branded mobile app for Appian and publicly publish it to the App Store for any iOS user to install it.  If the notifications can also be customized to come from our custom branded name VS Appian? Thanks

Hello everyone, Thank you in advance for your time, me and my team are having some problems with the Advanced Rich Text Editor plugin and pasting images:Error introduction: We are facing some errors related to the use of the plugin Advanced Rich Text Editor (Vuram) (Appian Community) We believe this is due to the automatically generated base64 by the plugin when we paste the images. On large images this base64 can’t be displayed in the site and is resulting in a weird 403 Access Denied error : It seems that there is also a conflict with the a!startProcessLink component, please find more details in the Error details topic Quick context: We use the plugin’s richTextEditorField so that our users can write more personalized emails, attach images to the email’s body and send them directly from the Appian application. We then save the generated html in our database and use the Microsoft MS Graph public library and respective Appian marketplace plugins to send

Hello, I have a problem with the smart service ‘import csv to database’, as the column names in the CSV do not match those in the table. Is there any way to create a mapping between the two values, or do I necessarily have to create a new table that has the same field names as the csv? I would like to avoid the latter solution if possible. Thank you all.
