Process Automation

Hi, For the above expression rule, if I try to add a!isNullorEmpty(local!ID), then I can getting false, but I am expecting true. Am I doing anything wrong here.

I'm just trying to learn if there is any way that we can introduce business exceptions and system exceptions into the automation flow like the other RPA tools (like try catch ) kind of elements?

I have created this rule to get the group names from my task report in a grid . but when there are multiple groups are present at assignee column, it gives error saying invalid group exception. Here is the code: if( or( runtimetypeof( ri!groupOrUser ) = tointeger( 'type!{http://www.appian.com/ae/types/2009}Group' ), like( ri!groupOrUser, "?Group:*" ) ), touser(group( togroup( touniformstring( ri!groupOrUser ) ), "groupName" )), rule!APN_displayUser( touser( ri!groupOrUser ) ) ) Rule input-user or group Any suggestions?

To get the all numbers between 2 numbers.

We are having a start date Eg. "2022-04-22 18:10:03"(Datatype: Date & Time) . I need to add 5 hours to the date and should provide me result as "2022-04-25 14:10:03". Requirement: Should not include time between 19:01(7:01 pm) to 9:59(am) and week end (Saturday & Sunday). Explanation: 4th April is Friday and the time given was 18:10(6:10pm). Total time taken is 50 min to complete 7pm on 4th April. As 23rd and 24th comes under week ends (Saturday & Sunday) we need to remove those date and time. Then we need to add date from 25th10:00am resulting in adding 4 hours 50 min on 25th.

Has anyone implemented a custom picker that queries all the expression rules in an environment ?

Hello! I'm with a problem using Appian RPA that when I click in one button in any browser (IE, Chrome or Firefox) it opens another tab that I can't switch to.

Appian Lovers,  Per Appian Documentation Developers can design the Decision Table and delegate the same to Business Users to add Business Rules. This can be achieved by providing the Editor access to Decision object which will then give them to update the Decision via "Analyst View". Please refer to link below  https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.1/Appian_Decisions.html#analyst-view I am not sure, where or how to access the Analyst View. This question is in reference to a request from the Line of Business to figure out if they can manage the Decision Table themselves. Thank you,  Janaki Ram Kavuri

Hi!  We're having an update from windows 7 to windows 10 over our VM. With Win7 we do not have performance issues, but upgrading to win10 becomes a problem because all animations it has.  Also, Internet Explorer updated and also with the latest driver, looks like it behaviour its different.  And as a last resort, when trying to execute the agent on Win10 leads to not being able to assign more than 1024 mb to it, which we think, is the main problem to the performance problem we're facing.  Anyone has migrated from win7 to win 10 who can help us?  Thnx in advance.  Cheers!
