Hello everyone! I'm in the process of designing a quiz feature, and I'm struggling with designing an algorithm that will choose questions for a quiz. I believe my issue would easily be solved with a while loop, but since this is unavailable in Appian, I need some help designing an alternative solution. I have no code written, so let me describe my issue from a high level. I have a table containing quiz questions - around 400 rows at the moment. When loading a quiz form, I need to pull randomly chosen 40 questions from this table. First, I determine the first available question ID. Then, I determine the last available question ID. I save both as integers, 7 and 403. Then, I get a random integer number, picked from a range between 7 and 403. And here's where I get stuck: I need to make sure these numbers are unique. Normally I would have an array that I would append with these randomly generated integers on the condition that they are not already in the array, and I would do

"Hello everyone! I'm currently working with an RPA agent and I'm wondering if anyone has experience or insights on how to automatically start an RPA agent when the system restarts. I'd like to ensure that the agent is up and running without any manual intervention after a system reboot. NOTE: We have a dedicated server for production where we store all our agents and files logs. However, we are experiencing scheduled server downtime every day. Fortunately, the server eventually comes back online, and we expect our bots to automatically go online without requiring any manual intervention. This ensures the continuous operation of our bots once the server is back up.Here are a couple of approaches I follow: 1. I have created a task scheduler using a bat.file, which allows me to automate the startup of the RPA agent at a specific time or during system boot.---  but unfortunately, the scheduled task isn't working as intended. It fails to activate t

Hi All, Whenever I run the RPA process and encounter issues such as process stuck near any step or failures due to XPath changes, I'm encountering an unexpected error in the execution log. The error message reads: "To perform this action, you must first open a browser with the open browser action." even when a browser is already open and operational. Unfortunately, it appears that the system is not recognizing the open browser despite its presence.When attempting to validate element presence using the "is element present", despite setting up expressions to recheck the element 15 times within a loop, I'm encountering an issue where the loop isn't being entered, and instead, an "open browser" error is being generated. 

Hello, I've configured the RPA agent on the AWS server, and it runs fine when AWS is open. However, when I close AWS, I'm unable to execute the RPA as it's waiting for the resources too long. The status of the agent is offline.
