Refresh services in Call Web Service node causes inputs to change in different Call Web Service node

Symptoms

Given a scenario where there are two process models PM A and PM B, when Refresh services is called in a Call Web Service node in PM A, an input in PM B with the same name is also updated to the same inputs as the input in PM A.

Cause

This is happening because the process models are using the same data type, but are attempting to define it differently. Types in Appian are defined by namespace and name. Since both process models use the same type in the same namespace, if you make changes to the type definition in one process model, those changes will be reflected in the other process model.

 

  • This issue has been reported to the Appian Product Team. The reference number for this issue is AN-104846.

Action

Update one of the process models to use a new data type so that the same datatype is not shared among both models.
