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.

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

Hello team, I would like to ask you for an advice. In my tool there is one User Input Task which is assigned to a group "Processors". The users of this group accept the task and complete it. I set up an "Escalation" to reassign the task back to queue if some of the processors forget to complete it.   My problem is that in some cases, I cant really explain why, the task is not released and its owner remains still the user who accept it. So I created a flow for business administrators who can reassign a task to somebody else from the pool using the "Reassign Task" smart service in Process model. But even if we select the "ICH Processors" as a group to assign the task back, the owner of the task will not change and the task will be not available to accept it. Any advice please on how to resolve this? How to change the owner correctly? Thanks

Hello, I've been training a document extraction AI Skill in one region and then deployed the AI Skill to a different region. Interestingly, I'm finding that the document extraction in the first region performs better than the document extraction in the newer region. Do AI skills have to be retrained in each region, like when you deploy from TEST to PROD? Thanks!

Hi!I'm trying to filter out record where field 'value' is null, but it only gives the record of the first item, here's the code local!validValues:ri!properties[where(a!isNotNullOrEmpty(ri!properties['recordType!{5ebb976a-556f-4033-b1d7-9e5976ab963d}MM Property.fields.{041a7f43-dfd1-4b07-aaed-48e305712f4e}value']))], Any inputs?

Hello team, in my application for reporting i use a!exportDataStoreEntityToExcel smart service to download Excel report based on the filters selected. This part is working great. As a new requirement i need to limit the access, the users will be able to download report only for contracts which they created / they approved from sender side / they approved from receiver side. The way i tried to achieve this is to create an expression rule to query the entity, make queries with 3 different filters (when user is created, approver on sender side, approver on receiver side), save the results into 3 separate local variables, combine them into the final local variable which will be then used as the entity parameter in the excel smart service. But i am not able to cast it to proper format, all the time i receive an error message: Could not cast from ICH_V_ContractLineItemsReportCSV to Data Store Entity. Details: CastInvalid. Example: local!variable1: cast( 'type!{urn:com:appian:typ

Hi  I have created a constant for storing all the valid file extensions  constant : OPP_TXT_VALID_FILE_EXTENSION  -> {"PDF", "JPEG", "JPG", "PNG", "DOCX", "DOC", "XLSX", "XLS", "CSV", "TXT"}  Now I wanted to implement a validation in fileUploadField wherein I want to check for valid file extensions. For this I am using the contains function  contains ( cons!OPP_TXT_VALID_FILE_EXTENSIONS, upper(fv!files.extension) ) Now even for a valid file extension (say PNG) this validation fails But if I use normal array of hardcoded values instead of constant then I am getting the desired result contains( {"PDF", "JPEG", "JPG", "PNG", "DOCX", "DOC", "XLSX", "XLS", "CSV", "TXT"}, upper(fv!files.extension) )    Is there something that I am missing ?
