User Experience Design

Hi, We have defined the list of file extensions which are to be allowed via admin console as shown below. When we try to load any file which has an extension(png) that is not present in the admin console, it prompts an error message to the user as shown below which is expected.Had anyone faced similar issue, or any inputs to overcome this?Code snippet:a!localVariables(  local!files,  a!fileUploadField(    label: "Upload Document",    value: local!files,    saveInto: local!files,    target: cons!TEST_UPLOAD_FOLDER  ))

Difference between load, with, local variables, refresh variables

Hi All, I am facing one challenge to implement one behaviour in appian interface. My interface presents the read only data to the user and user will take action based on his findings by selecting a dropdown value. Finally user hits a "SUBMIT" button whose implemetation is as below. where we call an integration which will update the data and returns an error if an exception found. So my requirement is when user clicks "SUBMIT" button if error occured then form should not submit and close and error message should be displayed. If data updated successfully form should close. I tried below submit condition as well but it didnt work. suggest something. a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "Update", saveInto: { rule!PM06_PortalApprove( tenantId: "77b50320-5f06-5740-84f4-18d4a8cda51d", identifierId: "s57", portalTransactionId: property(local!jsonData, "PortalTransactionId", null), comments: "test", on

Hello, I have an interface which shown a corresponding gird with 10 records on a page, after user choose the one the would like to see. There is also a refresh bottom available within the interface. All data shown in the grid came from task reports, and assume to be refreshed when either someone press the refresh bottom or make a choice. The refresh itself do work, and my problem is that when the grid is on the second page , the way of data displayed after refreshed differs between a.no actual update for the task report b.do have update in the task report When a the grid stay on the second page while under the situation of b, the gird will display data from the first page. What should I add to my code to ensure that it maintains the same performance in all cases.

My use case is after I search for a text, when I mouseover on the results even before selecting the item, it should display relevant information about the item.

Hi, I am using 'Navigation(Subsections)' Pattern here and put this interface on the site. So when user come to the site, by default workspace subsection is displayed. Now if user select 'My time' subsection, a grid is displayed and on clicking on link under the name column summary is showed but when user return backs, it redirects to the default 'Workspace' subsection instead by 'My time' subsection. Same is happening if I use record action from the grid. I also tried by putting the interface in process model and created rule inputs 'activeSubNavSection', 'activeSubNavSubsection' and passed to the PM but to no avail.

HI Team, I stuck on feild validation which will accept only below combination: it can be  0,1,2,3,4,5,6 or 0,1 or 1,2 combinations with all numbers or it can be only value which is less than 6  I am able to achieve with below code a!isNullOrEmpty( stripwith( ri!GBL_AutoCaseRunTimeConfig.config_value, "0123456," ) ) but  if user enters like 1,2,,,,,,, or 1,2,25 this is accepting , because it is under stripwith value i have added,  how can we validate ? might be to use split with comma and use contains functions and also how we can remove comma at last ? Any good suggestions ?

Hi Community , I had started to do a project where the use case is without using the rule input I have to get the data and write it in the database. As a start I created all the basic steps of creating the record type and generating the record actions where as an result automatically process model and interface are created.  I tried to map the record type fields via local variable in the interface such that when I moved over to the process model I can't able to write up the data in the database . In general I wanted to publish a portal such that when I tried to add pages ( Interface ) , a error occurs like rule inputs variable can't be used , So I started to prepare the above use case and to solve it. So kindly guys help me out with proper steps to handle over interface and process model. Thanks in advance..!

So we have a portal where the entire interface is in a!formLayout. Within the formLayout is a section that contains a billboard. We want the header to span the entire width of the page, but billboards don't do that, they have a margin on the right and left side. I know a!headerContentLayout allows the billboard to stretch the entire width of the page - so I figured I'd change the interface to a!headerContentLayout, put the billboard in the 'header' parameter, and the a!formLayout in the contents array. But a!headerContentLayout does not support a!formLayout as shown in this error I receive: The contents contain a component that is not supported in the header content layout. Received: FormLayout  Is there a way to make the billboard/header stretch the full width of the screen in this situation? Thanks for any help!
