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. 

I have a requirement to connect to Drone from Appian. I have seen an application developed by Procensol in Appian Hackathon for the same. https://youtu.be/IN5MEyguKaM?si=kl-wATgZ00rDg53Q Please let me know if there is any Plugin/API to use the same? Thanks, Sarat Tumu

Does anyone tried to execute a robotic task using a robot installed in a remote linux terminal? Im trying to execute a simple robotic task that open chrome browser and returns me some data of a webpage, the robot is online on the dashboard but when i try to open the browser it pops the following error:  2023-04-18 11:05:07 02s (0h) - Driver could not be initialized: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally.

1. Interface upload image  2. second interface use document viewer to display image.

I am new Appian.  I am working the "RPA Tutorial: Parse Excel Files" version (23.2) to read data through RPA robot task, which works fine, but cannot figure out error at the step to Add Excel data to database in PM.. Your help is very appreciated!    In Appian Community questions, there was similar question about working on the same training document, and the answer was written: missing one step in the tutorial : In the Appian RPA interface, for the Upload Excel File activity, you must enter "excelDocumentID" as the Target, in the Outputs section.  I don't understand this answer because the excelDocumentID column is set as primary key, auto-generate?  if this step is the missed step, how to do this step?  The errors message I have had:  An error occurred while evaluating expression: =pv!roboticTaskVariables.dataValues (Expression evaluation error: Cannot index null List of Map) (Data Inputs)&n

How can I make my RPA in Appian accurately select the gender dropdown option based on input data in a user input form? The robot is currently unable to click the dropdown correctly, and I'm looking for alternative methods to ensure accurate selection based on input.

An email is send by the client to appian mailbox, Appian needs to autodetect and pickup the attachement from the mailbox automatically. with the attachements as a input we have to triggered  the process where input is the attcahements of mailbox. is it possible to autodetect an new email with the attachment from the mailbox? in case if it auto detected, how to trigger an appian process with the attachment as the input?

Hi everyone, We initially installed a development agent on an AWS server to enable the execution of a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) process. When the AWS server is connected, the RPA process runs smoothly. However, when the AWS server gets disconnected, the agent goes offline, causing interruptions in the RPA process. To address this issue, we attempted to use a task scheduler, which previously allowed us to activate the agent at scheduled times or manually. Unfortunately, the task scheduler has recently been unreliable, failing to activate the agent as expected. This problem has been occurring only in the development and testing AWS servers for the past month, while the production environment continues to function properly. I discovered a beneficial feature called "Auto Sign-In" in Appian RPA, which offers the ability to automatically restart a bot without requiring manual login to AWS. This feature aims to provide a convenient and uninterrupted execution of the RPA bot.

Hi, I have a question, I need to evaluate two dates, one I have already solved, the one I have solved is like this: I have a date, and I have to validate with a boolean that must receive a data from 3 months to here, if it is more than 3 months, it is already an invalid date, but the part that I have not solved is, that I mark an invalid date from tomorrow. I have compared it with an or, but it gives me true, I have this code, and it returns a true if( local!tipoComprobante = "INVOICE", a!localVariables( local!extraeFecha: substitute(right(local!fechaRecibida, 9), " ", "-"), local!mes: rule!months(month:extract(local!extraeFecha, "-")), local!fechaValida: concat(local!mes, "/", left(local!extraeFecha, 2), "/", "20", right(local!extraeFecha, 2)), or( today() <= edate(local!fechaValida,3), today()+1>local!fechaValida) ), false ) this code block is inside an if, could I get some suggestions? my local variable

Hi all, Is there a way or a plug-in that allow us to expose some appian functions? Let me explain the scenario: We have an application that is highly configurable, at some point we need to give a group of more experienced users the ability to be able to assign certain values to certain fields, besides being able to assign static values "1", "2", "3", "TEST", "EXAMPLE","OK" ,etc (for say something), we want to give them the ability to use functions to calculate differently the values using functios like Sum(), AVG(), etc. or for calculations with dates AddDays(X), today(), etc. Is there any way to expose those functions that we use in SAIL in some way to the end user? Thanks in advance for your help
