User Experience Design

when a user inputs the date in date field other than within last 12 months then validation error should popup.. Thanks for your time and help..

Using a grid I display several rows of comments on a form. The requirement is that users should be able to see only their comments or final approval/rejection comments. They should not have visibility to the comments for the different approval flows. The current solution is showing every comment in a grid. Is there any way I can restrict the visibility of approval flow comments? Any recommendations? TIA

Under the form, I have a save button that will be disabled after the form submission. The button should be enabled if any changes are made to the data or a comment is added.Any help will be appreciated.

I am trying to keep the submit button disabled if they have not selected a file and if the file is not a CSV extension. The button disable works fine for check for no file but the file extension checking is not working and can not figure out why. In the below code the first if is working fine but the second one it gets this error    Could not display interface. Please check definition and inputs. Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error at function 'document' [line 45]: The passed parameter(s) are of the wrong type. Received the type Text.   and can not figure out why.  Is there a better way to check this?  Thank you for any help on this, also the ri!csvFile_txt it saves into show this     [Document: 383603]   as the value for it.  The upload also works fine with the csv file as well, just having the issue on the disabled validation part. primaryButtons: { a!buttonWidge

Hi, Please see the below interface If you see in the left pane, there are three sections, Suites, Scripts and Cases. In every section, there are some hyperlinks. Also, if you see in the right pane, There are three tabs which I want to be dynamic. Every tab will render the data for 3 sections shown in the left pane but when clicked on any link in the subsequent section. It means, initially there will not be any data in the tabs. Now requirements are as follows:- 1. If user clicks on any of the link in the suites section, I want to open a grid in Tab 1 which can show the data from db. 2. If user clicks on any of the link in the scripts section, I want to open a grid in Tab 2 which can show the data from db. 3. If user clicks on any of the link in the scripts section, I want to open a grid in Tab 3 which can show the data from db. Can you pls help in achieving this functionality ? Below is the code for the same interface. a!localVariables( local!suites: rule!BTFU_G

Is it possible to download a document through documentDownloadLink and save on a local (better if writing on db) at the same time? With one click? The need is to know if a document has been downloaded or not.

I have a requirement where i need to disable buttons once the user submit the form. I tried using buttonaction rule input but its not working . Any suggestions?

I have a local variable which gets it data from an expression rule which in turn fetches data from a record. I am using this local variable within an editable grid in foreach to populate data for each rows in the grid. When a particular value of the local variable is edited, I am enabling a Save button in the interface (The interface being displayed to user is an user input task present within a process model) and when clicked on this save button, the process gets navigated to appropriate write to data store entity smart services and then routes back to the same interface. Now when the process stops at the same user input task again, the changed value is not reflecting and I have to do a hard refresh by pressing F5 in order for the change to reflect or I have to exit the process model and enter again. I tried using refresh variable but it is not working as expected. Am I missing something?

Hi. I am attempting to make a reusable grid using a passed ri! of type Any with a cdt type being passed into it. Optionally I am thinking about passing in a list of column names so I can specify the order the grid displays columns in. From there I wanted to do a foreach generating the N grid columns using field names and types grabbed from the passed cdt.. 1.I don't know if there is a way to get a list of all the fields a cdt type has. 2. I am unsure if there is a way to get their types. Any tips?

Hi, I want to save this below to a cell like this "123456, 78900, 4567" in the user interface Thanks,

I have a related action accessible to a number of users. The action will be hidden upon execution. If two users open the summary page at the same time, the first one to click it will be able to execute the action. Although the action is still visible on the second user, he/she will now get  "An error Has Occurred. The specified <RECORD> related action does not exist or you do not have permission to view it". Is there a way to handle this error to provide a better message? Thanks.

New to Appian and I have a upload component on an interface to allow the user to upload a CSV file into a folder. When I edit the interface and preview it to test it, it looks like this, which is as expected.  I drag and drop the file and it shows the file name. When I run this live like the users will do and drag and drop the file, at first for a split second it looks like the above but then shows this. I am trying to figure out why, when it is ran live why it is not showing like it does when I edit the interface and preview it and run it there. I need it to show the file when they upload, or drag and drop it in the component. Thank you for any help

Hi everyone. When selecting a value from a dropdown on mobile (android via custom app), the dropdown list is still open after the selection, and I'd have to click on back arrow to go further. When using phone preview in the Designer the behavior is not the same and the value is selected and the list closed in one action. How could I change the behaviour of the click on mobile? Thanks Lionel

I know about a!writetodatastore smart service function, is it possible that without navigating away from interface we are able to save the data in database using that function or is there some other way around.
