Hell Dears, I am working on a project that contains multiple tables, what I noticed while I am working on a table is that the column width is set based on the column name width. In other words, if I have a long name of a column header this column width is larger than the column that has a short name. I am looking for a way to set a column width based on the column values rather than the column name. Would you please help me with this issue? Thank you in advance

I have an editable grid where user can add new records. UI is build on New Record Syncs. When i click "Add something" link, getting below error.  this issue is happening when the grid/whole interface is empty. For example, if i have records in another sections, then it is working fine. Everytime we click on add, i am saving specific data to columns. Could not figure it out what this error is saying. Attached code of that UI, any help appreciated. a!localVariables( local!refTickerData: rule!SRT_QRY_tickerReferenceRecordType(pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(1, 5000)), local!labels: { "Equity", "Fixed-Income", "Other", "Review Required" }, local!filterSelected: if( ri!filterSelected = "1 ADJUSTED", 12, ri!filterSelected = "2 ADJUSTED", 13, ri!filterSelected = "3 ADJUSTED", 14, {} ), local!data: ri!portfolioData, local!adjustmentOne: if( local!filterSelected = 12, if( a!isNullOrEmpty( index(

Hello Team, Let's imagine that I have the following case: two users open the same interface (summary view page of a record) and there is a section with multiple actions (cards with startProcessLink to initiate different actions); First user trigger one of these actions. A process model is initiated (everything chained) and the process is completed. Since this is chained, after the completion a LV is refreshed (this LV will be used on a condition to enable/disable the visibility of the button that I just clicked on) and the button is disabled for this user; Second user with the same interface open still can see the button. Do you know how to prevent that the button is visible for the second user? I was expecting that after the first user completes the action, both sessions will be refreshed, however only the sessions for the user that performed the action is being refreshed. I understand that I can create a condition on the PM, and as soon as the user click on the button (the

I need to create a user interface. The interface consists of multiple sections, each section will have it's dedicated submit buttons. Each section will have it's own dedicated required fields (using required parameter of field) and fields validations. Now, when I use buttons in each section with validate as true, it checks for the required validity of every section, though that button is not dedicated to those other sections. How can I make it to check only the requiredness and validation of the section which it is dedicated to. In the attached code, when I click "Submit as Future Hire" or "Onboard Employee Now", besides checking the validation or requiredness of the section fields in which it is placed, it is checking for other section as well. Validation groups are also not working properly, when I click "Onboard Employee Now" in first section, it checks for validation of fields "Phone Number" and "Start Date" for first sectio

Hi, I am making an Asset Management application. I have a functionality which allows me to create new assets with information such as asset name and asset Id. There is also an ability to add images of the asset in the interface where I have used the a!fileuploadfield which points to a constant which is a folder that stores the images. Here is the code for the same. /*a!fileUploadField(*/ /*label: "Asset Image",*/ /*labelPosition: "ABOVE",*/ /*target: cons!G1_folderAssetImages,*/ /*value: ri!G1_Assets.imageId,*/ /*saveInto: ri!G1_Assets.imageId,*/ /*required: true,*/ /*validations: {}*/ /*),*/ I want to make a summary view (Interface) which shows all the information about the asset along with its image. But as of now I am just able to show the image id. Is there any way I can dsiaplay the image in this new interface?

Hello, Is there any way to update rule input values as soon as local variable is updated? Do I need to create Process model for updating rule input values?

I have a Summary view interface with tabs at the bottom that each display another Read-Only Grid interface displaying info from related tables. I need to be able to have the information on those tabs to only show the records related to the parent record being viewed on the summary view.  I know you can set filters at the Read-Only grid level on the individual interfaces, but at that point there is no parent record to reference so it returns an error. Does anyone have a way around this?

Hello, On my UI, I have two text fields that I need to store temporarily until the user confirms their input with a button. I wanted to store these values in a local variable using a!map() function, like so: local!data: a!map( firstName: "", lastName: "" ) I wanted to initialize the variable to be a map with two keys containing empty text strings. On the text fields, I wanted to access and save this data like so: a!textField( label: "First Name", value: property(local!data, "firstName", null), saveInto: a!save( property(local!data, "firstName", null), save!value ) ) And it does not work. It just does not save the value - goes back to null, as If I could not save into the variable and initial empty strings were returned. I tried using index(), but it failed as well. May I ask for some help on this one?

Hi Champ, I am using the OOTB signature component in one of my portals. According to the current Appian feasibility we need to click the button for the signature space to come and where user can put their signature. Is there any way so that I can get the signature space automatically instead of button click or somehow the button click will happen automatically before landing into the page? To explain in more detail, as you can find below in the screenshot, I don't want user to click the button "Draw signature." It should automatically give the below section when user land into the page. Regards, Ghanashyam

This is an issue that was initially reported on a Site and I could not replicate it when testing in any browser, until I thought to test on a separate monitor (not my laptop screen). When testing on the monitor was able to replicate in Chrome & Edge through the Site, through the top-level parent interface, and through the interface that contained the dropdown (although for the customers instead of a refresh, it was causing the entire page to turn grey). Can only replicate the issue on my laptop screen through the interface, not through the Site. I have reached a resolution for the issue (updating/deleting rows in the database or logic on local!choices to replace nulls with "Unknown") but sharing since I was not able to find anything when I had searched online. Believe the issue was caused by a user deleting some of the data for a couple rows before using the "Delete" icon/button that had been set up. The case was the query pulling in the data did not have a

Hello Everyone, I am trying to append data into a nested cdt in the order i enter data in the tabs, but unable to do so. Currently i am saving the data like this saveInto:{local!info,a!save(ri!userData.UserInfo.field1,append(ri!userData.UserInfo.field1,local!info)) I have a big multi section form and each section has multiple tabs. The section (form) i am working has 4 tabs and each tab has almost same fields. I have a rule input called users data which is of the type usersData cdt. usersData cdt has nested cdt's. My use case is - users should be able to enter data in multiple tabs in the form and after entering the data it should be appended into one of the nested cdt's of the rule input. The nested cdt is an array. I want the data from tabs to be saved in the order user enters them. Ex - Tab 1 - Fields A, B, C                                              &nb
