Process Automation

Hi team, where we can find the sample invoice documents in our Appian documentation? to train the document classification model. thanks in advance!

I have a structure of record type A like this: {id: other business field:, relationships: record Type2: { id, A_id, other business field } recordType3:  { id, A_id, other business field } }, After user change the data, I want to check whether the business field is actually modified. What I thought is to traverse the list of this record and construct new objects using the business field, use the new objects to compare. I want to know is this the only way to solve my problem? Is there any easy way can solve this.  

I'm encountering an issue where I need my suggestion function to return both a dataSubset and an output value (like a flag). The goal is to allow users to enter a new project code if it doesn't exist and make dependent fields editable. I need a way to pass that output from the rule back to the interface Trying with a!update

I have to open a web page as RPA Task and scroll down to click on an icon to extend the additional info. Upto scroll down to that particular section, it is working fine. But I am not able to click on the add icon to extend. Can someone guide me with the configuration.

In a queryentity function, in an interface, I'm getting an error like "Unexpected error executing query (type: [CPVAccountsStatementTrackerDT8331], query:[queryentity expression], order by: [[Sort[FinancialInstitutionOther asc]]], filters:[(firmId = TypedValue[it=1,v=-1)])". How should I resolve this error. In one of filters, we are filtering based on -1 but this is working in some environment while failing at  some.

I created and RPA to upload a document(CSV File) from a Virtual Machine to Appian.  Everything works fine when I run the RPA manually, ie select execute from the robotic process.  However when  the RPA runs as part of my process model,  I get the following error. [ERROR] 2022-11-14 17:55:06 - - Error code APNX-1-4530-023 with message "The document cannot be uploaded because the storage limit exceeded, you do not have privilege or the document name is not unique." found for resource /api/v1/uploadDoc[WARN] 2022-11-14 17:55:06 - - Method manageException invoked I'm sure it must be some security setting in my Process model, but I can't figure it out.  Any ideas?

Hi, I have a RPA that takes files from my local machine and upload them into an Appian folder with the Upload Document module provided in Appian Services.. When I run the RPA within the Appian RPA console it works perfectly fine. I want to trigger this RPA from an Appian Process Model that uses the Robotic Process Smart Service but when I do so the RPA start fine but then I have an error that I can't solve so far... (looks like it's about the Target Folder).Error code APNX-1-4530-021 with message "docFolderUuid query paramter is not found." found for resource /api/v1/uploadDoc Can anyone help me? Thanks, Jeremy.

I'd like to understand how the count of descendant rules affects interface performance and how this count is calculated.

HiCan we extract data from unstructured documents using Appian IDP Gen AI features

Hi [mention:765e189a8fe04dcb81da7360e05696f4:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]  mukeshr0002 [mention:83200b87486f491ab4742c4178286957:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]  I am trying an experiment with Appian RPA on using ms outlook api. I added the ms outlook api dependencies, but the maven is not downloading those jars. Only jidoka-client-api jar is downloaded, no other module apis are getting download.

Hi, I'm looking for more details about IDP, implementation directions and where can I find more help/documentation regarding this. I am new to IDP anything that you can provide would be helpful.  Thank you.

Hi everyone,Is there any way to maintain an audit trail of user queries and responses monitoring for review purposes of any chat bot mentioned above.thanks in advanced

Hi AllWhen i am doing filtering not getting expected output.Below code is mentioneda!queryEntity( entity: cons!LOCALE_TRANSLATION_NEW, query: a!query( selection: if( rule!P3_utils_checkIsNullOrEmpty(ri!columns), {}, a!querySelection( columns: a!forEach( items: ri!columns, expression: a!queryColumn(field: fv!item, alias: fv!item) ) ) ), logicalExpression: a!queryLogicalExpression( operator: "AND", filters: { a!queryFilter( field: "label_txt", operator: "=", value: ri!label_txt, ), }, ignoreFiltersWithEmptyValues: true ), pagingInfo: if( rule!P3_utils_checkIsNullOrEmpty(ri!pagingInfo), a!pagingInfo( startIndex: 1, batchSize: cons!P3_BATCH_SIZE[7] ), ri!pagingInfo ) ), fetchTotalCount: and(ri!isFetchTotalCount))=======================================When i searched "Research". It is giving me expected outputIs it default behavior of Appian ? Expected result - It should not return anything because there is no label like "Research  "

Hi, I'm using the Open Browser action in Appian RPA to launch a legacy web application. Occasionally, the website may be down, and when that happens, the bot execution fails with an error like "unable to navigate to URL." In such cases, I would like to trigger a notification (ideally an email) to inform the support team immediately about the failure. My questions are: Is there any default mechanism in Appian RPA to send notifications (like emails) on task failures? If not, what’s the best practice to implement an email notification when an action like Open Browser fails? Any guidance or examples would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I have a challenge where I need to classify more than 10 different types of documents. I understand that the traditional Classify Document approach in Appian requires a substantial amount of training data to build an accurate model. Is it possible to use generative AI (Gen-AI) for document classification in Appian instead? Or is Gen-AI generally not suitable for handling multiple document types like this? I’m aware that the current Appian AI Skills for document classification do not use Gen-AI, but I wanted to check if there are any alternative approaches or best practices. I also tried using extraction with unstructured Gen-AI for classification, but it turned out to be more complex than I expected—especially converting the output to JSON and so on. Thanks for any advice or suggestions!ps; currently lacks of documents so i not using the classification document method xD

In UIPath we have reFramework (dispatcher, performer, reporter) and the queue/orchestrator splitting the work between bots. Can somebody please point me to a similar way of doing it in the Appian Academy? Thank you so much.

Hello, good morning. When I try to execute my Execute Robotic Task node, I'm getting the following error: "Creation of the Quartz job for robotic_task_remote_smart_service_EXECUTE.311_0_#be has failed." Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks in advance!

Is there an expression or component that can display the documentation of a rule on an interface the way it appears when coding?

Out of 3 environments (dev, test and prod), prod is giving wrong output to a default datetime conversion. Attached screenshots.  How to resolve this? Does it depend on some settings?Dev environment - First rule input is converted to GMT-4:00 Prod Environment - First rule input is converted to GMT-5:00 Created and deployed the same rule across environments, just to verify that I am not doing anything wrong. Appian Version 25.1Hosting: Cloud

Hi [mention:b1ec831bc63f413fb8baec7179cee8b3:23b05a61c3e5445190d9bfa00453bce4] / [mention:5357deb643314f689f0553cc98556414:23b05a61c3e5445190d9bfa00453bce4] ,  https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.4/rpa-9.16/java-module-ms-outlook.html  I'm working on creating a custom Java code for the Appian RPA MS Outlook module. While I've finished the Java component, I'm unsure how to integrate or put those into Appian RPA.  It would be great to get some insights on best practices and common challenges from someone with experience in this area. I tried to follow the Appian RPA documentation, but somewhere felt like lost. Could anyone with experience incorporating custom Java code into Appian RPA offer some guidance?   Thanks, Bharathwaj RK

I am using an RPA smart service within my process model.I pass through data to the RPA Smart Service which a bot will run to retireve data from a 3rd party application. PolicyNumberThe goal is to pull that information (policyNumber) out of the robotic task to use in the rest of the process model. At the moment the bot successfully captures and stores the data in the Variable, but on the Process Model side, it is still showing 'no value'. The result of the variable on the robotic task after a successful run:Any assistance on helping to retireve this text string or even persisting this data would be greatly appriciated.

Hello, mates! I would like to create a rule that will provide choices/options through parameters to be used with the choose() function (https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.1/fnc_logical_choose.html) However, the choices will not have a default length. I tried using Appian array, but as expected, it didn't work because choose() expects individual parameters, not an array. I'm working on creating a tab interface component, where the number of tabs isn't fixed, hence the need for dynamic choices. Does anyone have any hint on this? Thanks.

Hi team i am unable to fetching the data using the query entity,due to some restrictions i have to use the CDT only so i am using query entity for fetching  the data,(I want this data for displaying into the read-only grid)i have 2 tables in DB1st table having the 42 columns and 26191 rows of data so i am using the below code for fetching the hole data  a!queryEntity(entity: cons!1stentity,query: a!query(pagingInfo: a!defaultValue(value: ri!pagingInfo(Type:pagingInfo),default: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 10)), ),fetchTotalCount: true(),), but using this code i can able to fetch 21568 rows of data only not able to fetch the whole data,2nd table having the 8 columns and 389434 rows of data so i am using the below code for fetching the whole data. a!queryEntity( entity: cons!2ndentity, query: a!query( pagingInfo: a!defaultValue( value: ri!pagingInfo, default: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 10) ), ), fetchTotalCount: true(), ),From this tab

Yesterday I was able to create, save and publish Process Models with an AI Skill.  Today, after the environment I was working in was updated to version 25.2, I am unable to publish Process Models containing an AI Skill smart service.   Any attempt to save results in the following error: "Parameter Input Text on Activity Class Execute Generative AI Skill on node Blinken Lights! requires a value..." A process variable is correctly set on the Data tab.  The data type of the variable is correct.  I've tried changing the variable, using a literal value, rebuilding the node, etc.   Anyone else experiencing this?  What am I doing wrong?

Hi all, I enjoyed the Talbot presentation from Appian World on Prompt Builder that helps with improving AI skill results from last year (2024). Has anyone created a use case / skill for processing Sail exported code (particularly interfaces) for flagging variations from agreed upon coding, possibly referencing all of Appian Community threads to warn about potential known issues / KB situations that might arise?  Of course, Appian warns nicely for most issues, but if a scan to flag for areas that might need attention based on known conversation threads might be helpful on occasion?  Just thinking through more use cases with the Persona, User Intent, etc.
