Please help in resolving the error.  For example the country name with special characters : "Bolivia, Plurinational State of", I should get the group name as "RGRACSLBL

Hi, not a problem but following code should throw some error, but it is evaluating.Here a comma is missing, and we are using a local variable in its definition, which should throw an error.

Hi All, I have a scenario where if an expected SLA date&time falls on a non-working day, I need to get next working day value. For example, I have my initial submitted date as 12/27/2023 2:01 PM PST and expected SLA date time based on some biz logic should be 1/2/2024 7:01 AM PST. I have used the below logic but somehow instead of getting the SLA date result for next year as 1/2/2024 7:01 AM PST, I am getting the SLA date result in the same year as 1/2/2023 7:01 AM PST. Please note correct process calendars are used and Dec 30 2023,  Dec 31 2023 and Jan 1 2024 are all set as non-working day. Please help/advise on how I can update to get the correct value:local!finalSLADateTime: if(calisworkday(1/1/2024 7:01 AM PST, local! Calendar),1/1/2024 7:01 AM PST,1/1/2024 7:01 AM PST + (dayofyear(caladddays(1/1/2024 7:01 AM PST, 0, local! Calendar)) - dayofyear(1/1/2024 7:01 AM PST))),

Hi All, I want the output of a workday function to be Date&Time instead of just Date.

Hi, I'm learning Appian RPA tutorial. I'm trying to create a Robot for ParseExcel Example. I have few doubts while creating a robot. 1. What kind of permissions we need to add there? ( I added my mail id which is registered for Appian is that correct) 2. I installed java in my local system and set in Environment variable also. Do we need to provide the Path here or is it fine to leave it blank? 3. I added my email id which is used for Appian community login in permission and added my local system JRE Path in JRE Path. Downloaded and installed the exe file.  After click on ok The Robot showing offline. 4. If I execute as per following the document it is not working.

Hi Champs, we have a requirment in Appian RPA where we are clicking a button/image to download the data in PDF in a chrome browser. It's working fine till the pop-up comes for Save option. But we are not sure how to click the save button on that pop up as this is a different window than the primary browser screen.

I need to compare two lists of the same type of cdt, and remove any duplicates from one of the lists if two of the fields match. For example CDT Array 1: {type!example( email: "hello@gmail.com", type: 1, date: 05/05/2019 ) } CDT Array 2: {type!example( email: "hello@gmail.com", type: 1, date: 01/01/2022 ), type!example( email: "hello11@gmail.com", type: 1, date: 03/02/2023 ), type!example( email: "hello@gmail.com", type: 2, date: 01/02/2023 ) } In this example, I want to remove CDT 1 from CDT Array 2, because it is has the same email and ID fields as the CDT in CDT Array 1, and I want to return the other two CDTs in CDT Array 2.How can I do this as efficiently as possible?
