Hello, I am trying to train IDP on some documents which are like Forms. Some of the forms fields are checkboxes and I need to read  (extract) which checkbox was selected. Is there a way to achieve this? Thanks,

Hi, Requirement: Operations would like to be prompted when any robot resource is offline, so that recovery action can take place to put the robot back online. Possible solutions: 1. In the first instance this may be a Operations  interface within appian which looks like the RPA resource page. Future would be to prompt Operations that action is required by raising a task or send an email.  Is there a way to capture the information shown on the RPA Resources page specifically the resource name and status? 2. have a robot process regularly scheduled as a "ping" to check a resource is online and report the results of the robot process and assume if robot process failed then prompt Operations. Thoughts? Thanks

Hi, community. I want to use "Appian IDP" with position specification. for example. I want to get the value of each colored part in the figure below.(This format is fixed and does not change.) This color "Area ■" is "Name Area". I want to get it like {name:"Nihon Taro"} I want to associate like "Area ■"="Name",  "Area ■"="Post Code" and  "Area ■"="Address".  if "Appian IDP" can use with position specification, it is as good as solved. Can't you do something like that with an IDP? Please tell me how if you know. Regards!
