Process Modeling

Hi, I have multiple interfaces and I switch between them user the user input task activity by selecting the interface name and data that i want to pass. The problem is when i move to another interface, the data will not pass until i click a submit button or do any action! For example, I fill info in Interface1 and click a card with link to move me to interface2. In interface2, The data from interface1 will not load until I click on a button with submit! Can I pass the data with me without doing any action?

In the below scenario, 1. A Process has been triggered with one UI task. 2. User has accepted the UI Task and entered the required fields. All the fields were passed as active class parameter and saved. 3. User has clicked on Save Draft(Appian OOTB feature) and all the values entered in form is seen in the Properties window. 4. Admin user has cancelled the process instance and all the values saved via Save Draft has been vanished. Is there a way to get the values back? the data saved in AC variables are need to be recovered. The issue here is since the task canceled, we can not get back the data stored using SAVE DRAFT function. we have not stored the data in PV variable, In anyways can we get this data back? Thanks, Lakshmi

What does this mean?

Good morning. I have a flow where an inclusive or node is used to branch one or two branches in parallel. However, when putting the convergent inclusive or node, the process continues when the first branch arrives and does not wait to synchronize the arrival of the second branch when both branches are fulfilled. What am I doing wrong, how should it be done? Thank you very much and best regards.

On the portal https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.1/Testing_and_Debugging_Problems_with_Process_Models.html  mentioned:-  Editing Process Optimization Reports Two reports are used to generate metrics that can be displayed in the process modeler. Default Process Model Optimization Metrics Default Process Optimization Metrics These reports can be found in the Objects View by searching for them by name Where can I find these 2 reports. ?

Hi Folks, I have to iterate the loop in my process model. But second iteration not getting happened. Get stuck in xor node. Please suggestp 

So I've been configuring a send e-mail node and for some reason it wouldn't send out an e-mail. The node wouldn't error out, but no e-mails were getting sent out. It was driving me crazy until on a whim I decided to remove the variable I had sitting in the subject line to make it dynamic and suddenly it works perfectly. So the e-mail only seems to get sent as long as I don't put an expression of any sort other than a literal string in that subject line. Is this a bug, or is this expected behavior? Assuming it's a bug, can we get it fixed? 

Hi, Is there any way to see where a process has been triggered from. In other words, can I see the 'super-process' which led to the execution of the current sub-process instance.

Hi Team, I have a process model which has around 5-6 nodes running in a loop. At one go the loop may have more than 1000 items to be run. The process model gets paused by exception after running the loop for 1000th time. Do we have any limit on  number of times a loop can run in one go? If yes, how can we handle the exception if we have more items than the maximum limit ? After the loop we have few nodes to run which gets stopped as the process model is getting paused. Appian current version : 21.1. Will soon migrate to 22.2. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

How to configure a timer to trigger on 1st and 15th of every month? pls let me know if any solution.

Hello: Can a process model pass back data to the record view interface when the user either cancels or submits a form within the process model? The scenario I am looking to handle is when a user clicks into a record view from the record list view. Within the record view, the interface has selectable tabs. The user usually selects a different tab before starting the process model. The issue I am having is when a process model is started from a record action on the record view interface, the selected tab index within the record view is reset to the original selected tab index of when the user entered the record view. Is there a way a process model can pass the selected tab state(or any data) to record view once the record action in the process model is cancelled or submitted? Thanks! Tony Plaza

We need to download knowledge center as a zip file and there are more than 20000 knowledge centers in our application so doing it manually will take too much effort. Hence we are checking if there is any possibility where we can do it automatically through process model. Please suggest. Thanks in advance, Yashaswini

Which one is preffered Archieving or Deleting a process model in Data management . Any use case for the both ? 

Hello! I have a doubt that i can't quite solve yet, so posting it may let me solve it faster I've followed an Appian advice in a way to download an Excel that has been exported from a Data Store Entity (something similar to this https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.1/Export_To_Excel_Smart_Service.html) I've "been able" (finding performance problems, I guess due to the table size) to clean the data store entity before writing on it once again. However, I have 4 rich texts, one for each function (clean the DSE, write to DSE, export DSE to Excel, download Excel). I want to reduce the number of clicks needed to do so, so I thought on using a!startprocessmodel() to reduce the first 3 rich texts to just one (so I'd have 2 in total). The thing is, I'm struggling on the Write to DSE node due to not knowing how to configure it nor how to properly write the input variables to the process. If you could help me do that or even reducing those 2 buttons to ju

Hi Appian Pals, I am getting this error in the process model consisting of a configured smart service to send email to an email address coming from the input user runtime during the process model.Can you please direct me what is the probable reason of this error being occured.Thanks in advance

Hi All, When the zoom meeting got over how to invoke the name of the user in the appian process model to the user input task (manager evaluation form).

My process inserts a new record in table CONTACT. Using AC!StoredValues, the process variable pv!contact is correctly updated with the ID (in debug, I see it in the process variables). Now I would like to understand why it is not updated in the interface calling the process as bellow.                                                   a!startProcess(                        processModel: cons!CADOR_PM_SAVE_INFO_CONTACT,                        processParameters: {                      &n

What is mostly recommended for Process -  1- Run as whoever started the process 2-  Run as whoever designed this process model
