Hi All, I am invoking a process model from Interface using start process in 'Submit' button. Process model is being invoked while clicking on 'Submit' button, but CDT parameter is always appearing as null. While testing the interface manually I am getting CDT values in process model. While invoking the interface from site CDT values are empty. Please help on it and below are the screenshots for your reference. Interface code: a!columnLayout( contents: { a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "Submit", saveInto: a!startProcess( processModel: cons!CU_Interview_Process_Model_Constant, processParameters: { Cu_Interview: ri!Cu_Interview, test: " ABCD " }, onSuccess: null, onError: null ), submit: true, style: "PRIMARY" ) }, align: "START" ) Process Model: Process Model Variables:  Process model is being invoked but CDT variable is empty. Modify Variable is not appearing for CDT . While testing

First let me start this off with some good news.  The left-hand object bar has been further tweaked and reorganized.  I previously commented that "process model / interface search results" being at the top of the list (as they are in 22.3 and lower) makes it harder to access the Smart Service Nodes we're after when that's what we're actually searching for.  It looks like they listened! Yay! But for the main point of this post: i've noticed that Grid Lines are now turned off by default and there is no way to undo this except by turning them on manually every single time you load a process model. At first I was hoping this was a bug in my Community Edition instance, or some incomplete feature or temporary break.  But other users are now posting screenshots from 22.4 versions around community and it seems like it may have been "intentional". Hey Appian folks?  This may have been intended to "look cleaner" or something

I have a need to send  All the open orders (orderid, total amount)  , in a word report document to email .This should be send once in a week 1. what activity i should use in process model for this 2. how to create a report with multiple order details dynamically  Please help

Hello. I have a process where i want to monitor status of a Record and to save the details about each step with timestamp. Lets say i have 3 statuses: Id 1 "it started" Id 2 "first mail" Id 3 "second mail" And I have Record type "History" with columns Id(primary key), status id, timestamp. I want this Record type to save the data like: Id1, status id1, 23.12.2022 12:55:00 Id1, status id2, 23.12.2022 12:57:00 Id1, status id3, 23.12.2022 12:59:00 Id2, status id1, 23.12.2022 13:01:00 And so on... So i can see the precise time when each step occured without overwriting Id1 with last status3 (and only showing this last status on database/Record type). How can I achieve this? Currently I'm saving the status id with Script task, but dont know where to tell Process Model that I want to save each step separately. And as i complete the process IT only shows last status on database. Help will be much appreciated.

Please forgive me if there is a way to do this already... I find cases where I have a fault in a process model during debugging. I track down the fault and fix it (either in the instance or in the process model itself) I then have to re-run the process  BUT Sometimes one wants to have a live run of an older version against a newer version rather than looking at the static comparison view in Versions SO I would like to be able to: go to my instances in Appian Designer Monitor view be able to right-click (or other method) to select a different version of the process model (i.e. either a previous or an updated version) run the same instance through  the newly selected process model 

Hi everyone, This is my process model, and I'm trying to find the cause for above issue: So the process starts with receiving the Excel file that user uploaded, then parse the file to get data into CDT type which looks like below: Then I use another script task to index and get all the case Ids. The problem is that when I run it in debug, the Parse File node generate multiple instances, however I check the output variable and the results are not duplicated. I didn't config the MNI either. 

Hi everyone,  I want to set a start timer for my process model, in which start date time will be provided in advance, and if the given start date time is within work hour (9-6pm Monday to Friday), the process model will send an error message stating it can not proceed during business hours, and the process model will not be run.  I haven't had much experience working with process model, so really appreciated if anyone can give me some guidance :)  Thanks a lot!

I am using Smart process smart service which is used to do load balancing and executing in Loop. Variable contains 500 rows As of now it is taking 40-50 min which is very high even loop number is not much. Is there any way we can optimize it further. We are passing few parameters into called process but as Start process smart service is asynchronous, so performance is not having any dependency on called process.  Appreciate any quick suggestions.

Hi there. We have an issue we have been unable to resolve with Appian's default task notifications. We want the "View Task" button from the notification email to send the user to the task on one of our sites rather than through Tempo. We have been able to accomplish this in a couple of our environments by setting the default user start page to: "">our-environment-name.appiancloud.com/.../our-site-page" with a couple others sites set up for specific groups. We have tried the same thing for another one of our environments, but no matter what we've tried with specific groups and default sites, all the task notifications are sending users to the tasks in Tempo rather than the site. We've tried comparing settings across the environments to spot the differences to see why it is working in one place but not the other, but we haven't been successful yet. Is there some other setting that we've missed?

Is there a way to configure the user filter in record for the field for which we are not storing the data in db

I am NOT getting required output.  a!localVariables(local!lst: a!forEach(pv!listOfSubmitters,property(fv!item, "addedby", null)),local!lst[pv!totalCountOfSubmitters]) Please advise if I have to declare the process variable with any other type instead of "Text". Or, let me know if anything wrong in a

Hi, Im getting this when I tried to run a process model. It opens the form with the below error. Please help.

Is it possible to change the subject line/body of process model alerts mails (error mails and others). Requirement is to identify for which environment (Dev, Test...) the particular process model error/alert has occurred or generated. Or any other suggestions to achieve this.
