Hi Everyone, I have a query which will receive a text input based on that it will query data.(The data is like the reviews received for books under one particular genre, say I give my input as romance that will give all those reviews under all books in that genre), But I want to group it based on the book name. So I can get average ratings for a particular book.On grouping , I am getting only names of the book and not the other details. I have  attached the required snap of code for it. In the First pic there is 9 items as output but when I group it the output will be 5 items. I want only the details of 5 items without repetition as in the second pic and I also want to know how to calculate average rating for these books.Please help me out guys!!

Hi All, I have a scenario where I need to take a screenshot of a webpage and save it into the robotic variable and trigger an Appian Process by giving the document as Input. Can you please guide me what are the possible methods ? P.S: I have tried upload document functionality and triggering the process with document ID as input. But the expectation from business is that BOT has to trigger the Appian Process by providing the document as input.  Please let me know if it is feasible and let me know the steps. thanks,

Hi everybody,  I am new to Appian and I am learning RPA using the Community Edition Site. I would like to retrieve (for example using an Expression) the list of the RPA Bots that I defined in the RPA Platform, and I was wondering if there's any built in function that I can use, or if any of you could suggest the best approach to implement it.  Alternatively I found this API https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.3/rpa-7.4/api/get-robotic-process-list.html. Am I allowed to call this Api with a Community Edition License? Do I have to create an Http Integration like any other external Api?  Thanks in advance,Franco

Appian RPA version 7.11 is now available! Simply request a site restart through your community edition site page or through an Appian support case to get the newest features! Look to our docs for more!

hi all how to read data from Appian  Queue - using Web API call

Hi all, this is a problem that's been troubling me for some time. Let's say that I have the following date, "08/18/2021". I know that it falls on a wednesday, and I want to substract enough days in order to get "08/16/2021" as the result. Same for any other date in the same week, I'd like to automatically detect how many days have passed in the week so it always results in the Monday of that week. My approach has been the following: a!localVariables( local!ctrlday: weekday(todate("08/18/2021")), datetext(todate("08/18/2021") - day() * (local!ctrlday - 3), "yyyy/MM/dd"),) And it "works" for that example, but if I were to calculate "08/17/2021" and substract 2, it would end up with "08/15/2021". Any ideas on how to make this behave properly? Thank you in advance.

Rule name is available (retrieved from DB ) in as pv!integration.mappingRule.I am trying to run this rule in Node output expression rule I have tried various options like rule!pv!integration.mappingRule or rule!eval(pv!integration.mappingRule) or eval(rule!pv!integration.mappingRule ) None of them works .  Any idea , how to make this work? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have a below output from my expression My requirement is if "expr" of every Dictionary contains "rowcode" that row code needs to be replaced by "expr" of that particular rowcode (for eg: "(FRML_88_1+FRML_88_2)" this expression contains rowcode so i need to replace it with expr "((123/12)+(1284*64))" and  the final output be like  "(((123/12)+(1284*64))*(9090+122))"

Hi All, I have recently got a chance to go through the academy course on Appian RPA Excel Data Provider and it is really good.   I'm looking to build simple use cases like read excel file and store it in PV only by using low code modules. I attempted to use features like - Initialization with URL - Initialization with File Parameter - Get Current Item attribute by name/column. is there an academy course/documentation available to use the ExcelMap data provider and how to configure every feature provided in it. I'm looking for this for other low code modules as well. May be its already available and I'm not able to locate. Please suggest some good documentations / academy courses for this. Thanks,Arjun.
