We have a user input task assigned to a group and a user accepts the task, is there a way we can capture those task details to separate table in DB when that task is in accepted state before the task gets completed.

I have a requirement to send consolidated escalation emails. One user can have multiple tasks assigned to him. But requirement is we cannot send individual escalation emails to users as its increasing their mail box volume. So Instead of default task escalation email,  I need to create a consolidated email which will show all the tasks assigned to a particular user in a single mail if task isn't completed within 2 days. I have created a  task report &  I tried using grouping by task owner field  inside queryProcess analytics, but it isn't working , attached code image.I am getting the below error message errorMessage"The aggregation query parameter is not supported. (APNX-1-4203-027)" Please Help Me its Urgent.. TIA

Hello Community, I try to get a task identifier specifc to a process instance. when I use this, I get 6 identifiers, they match the 6 instances in the record list: a!queryProcessAnalytics( report: cons!MY_REPORT, contextProcessModels: cons!IPAY_TEST_FOR_RECORD_PM, query: a!query( pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: -1) )).identifiers, I would like to pass the fv!identifier in the record or pp!id to get the specific identifier of the process instance in the list of 6, then use that in a link to the open task in the record list. 1067516(Number (Integer)) 1067535(Number (Integer)) 1067554(Number (Integer)) 1067612(Number (Integer)) 1067574(Number (Integer)) 1067600(Number (Integer)) when I use contextProcessIds: pp!id, it wont work. How to query or is there another solution. KInd Regards, Erik

We have a use case, where a user wants to see both the older as well as new updates made to any field of a record, when pulled out in an excel from Appian Application/Interface.   For example, a record with Car's mileage, Initial Value = 10000, and then Updated Value (after 1 month) = 12000, Updated Value (after 3 month) = 52000   The user wants to see all these entries in the "Records", i.e 10000, 12000, 15000, etc., along with a time stamp (Created or updated date), and updated by.   Below is a sample table/report that the user wants as an output for the above use case.   Car Mileage Created On Updated by Comments ABC 10000 11/2/2021 Emp1 This is the initial value ABC 12000 12/2/2021 Emp2 First Update ABC 15000 13/2/2021 Emp3 Second Update I have received responses where folks in the community has suggested the following: via a Historic CDT Plugin CDT Diff Utilities So, wanted to check if there are any best practices or a 

Good morning, I need to make a report to obtain the information of all the existing nodes within the process. A perfect example would be the process node tab that appears from the monitoring inside a process instance.I don't know if it is possible to create a report with this information. Thanks

Hello everyone, I'm kind of stuck in some part of a function I want to create for a certain report. This has to be with exporting the data within the report from data export entity to excel using the a!exportDataStoreEntityToExcel() function. The issue is basically how to export more than 500 rows using this method (or another) to excel since the database only retrieve data in patch of 500 rows. I know I could export to excel patch by patch but I would like to see some approaches for this problem or relevant information that can help me to solve this exporting all the data in just one time. Thanks for your attention and I hope some of you can give me some help with this.

I want to develop a process report that will show me all the active process report started from my application. I'm using version 20.1 Requirements: 1. show all process reports that are active are are from particular application 2. I don't want to filter process models by name , or provide list of process models manually 3. I want to achieve something similar to monitoring view that is available from backend for developers. When you select application and then switch to monitoring you can see processes related to that application only. Monitoring View - Appian 21.3

Hi Team, I have created process report with context type as Tasks by process model and given the filter as active and completed. We have active process instance in monitoring tab. But still am not able to see the any entries  in report. Could you please help me on this?

I have a task report. My process has 2 tasks and in parallel has a subtask that has 3 task.. When the process starts all 5 tasks started at the same time. Parent pp!id: 1010 Child pp!id: 1011 How do I query the task report for both child and parent at the same time? I have tried making a cdt that includes parentID and passing it to child, but can not query on it as in the report cdt.parrentId is returning a list of text within list of variant when queried. And I can't use a query filter on a list of text within a list of variant. as includes, and = operators are not suitable from what i have seen.

Hi I am working on version 21.2.  I have a scenario, wherein I want my task report to display the "Task Accepted Time". I am using the function:                             gettaskacceptedtimestamp(tp!id) When I am calling this function in an expression rule, the rule is running fine and giving the date and time as per the task id passed. However, when I call this rule in the task report and pass tp!id, the value of the column remains blank. Also if I directly call this function in the task report, the value of column remains blank. Can any one please help me with this issue. Thanks in advance!!

Hello I have a requirement that I need to create an interface to show some filtered  process history. An example would be to show all email, and user input tasks that have been run for a particular process.

Hello Community,  We have a requirement to monitor the maximum number of user sessions on a day in the entire environment. is there any ready made plugin available for this? Im aware that we can use login audit csv file. But this file can give only the number of user logins on a day rather this file did not furnish the details about log out for the same user.  TIA

We have a requirement to produce a stacked column chart that displays a count of completed requests split by how many working days they missed the SLA date by (e.g. completed within SLA, competed 1-2 days after SLA, completed 3-5 days after SLA, completed >5 days after SLA). Our table stores both the SLA date and the completed date so we have the data but there doesn't appear to be an easy way to calculate the number of working days between the two (so ignoring weekends and bank holidays). We had initial created a view and used the CASE operator to define a column that categorised each request as Within SLA, 1-2 days after SLA, etc., but this does not take account of non-working days so is not acceptable to the business. A search has discovered several database solutions that rely on creating and populating a calendar table that includes all the days of the year and whether they are a working day or not, but that solution relies on that table being maintained and updated wi

Hello.I am creating a column chart that shows me the companies created in a period of time, this part is done. But now I need to create an average line in the report that shows me the average number of companies created in a year. It is possible to do it in Appian, I am new and I do not know if it can be done. 

Does "Report Builder wizard" which is available as a template at the time of creating new Interface, can also be available at a site for the common users so that they can build custom report and download the same at excel format as per their personal requirement? If yes, I shall be grateful, if anyone can please explain how it can be implemented.

Hello all, I would like to use queryEntity to add a filter which uses LISTAGG function in the database view. I'm trying to add DECISION filter something like below: select * from DB_VIEW where RECEIVED_DATE > to_date('6/1/2021', 'mm/dd/yyyy') and (DECISION like ('%Disapproved%') or DECISION like ('%Approved%')); Now the issue is, we do not have 'like' value for 'operator' in a!queryFilter. How can I add 'like' operator to get the filtered result on a view in the Appian Report?

Hello, yesterday we lowered our process report timeout limit from 5000 to the standard 2000 ms but now we see a lot of errors in our log.
