So as you can see in the above pic i have 2 different fields and for both the fields i have used multiple dropdown option and i have used the same functions for them. But unfortunately, the multiple dropdown is working only for the status field and not working for the commitment field. i.e, when i try to select more than one option in the multiple dropdown field, it shows an error. . . . . "Could not display interface. Please check definition and inputs. Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error at function a!wizardLayout [line 3]: A multiple dropdown component [label="Commitment"] has an invalid value for "value". All selected values must be present in the choiceValues array, but value was Career Growth and Learning; Work-Life Balance and choiceValues was Career Growth and Learning; Work-Life Balance; Environment Sustainability." . . . . Can anyone help me out with where i did the mistake.

Hi everyone, I am working on a task where I want to compare values in a read-only grid. The data in the field consists of text-type values, for example: k(100), k(101), SH(300). While applying filters in the read-only grid, I want data whose values are greater than 100. Here, we should check only the number in the text. is there any possibility to achieve this functionality

Hi All, I found placeholder in picker component defined as "Text to display in the field when it is empty. Does not show if the field is read only."  Ref: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.2/Custom_Picker_Component.html However dropdown component it is "Text to display when nothing is selected and the value is null." Ref: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.2/Dropdown_Component.html So when the picker field been disabled or in readonly, it will show blank, how ever in the same page, disabled dropdown field can show the placeholder words.  Is there a way we can show the placeholder in disabled placeholder words in picker field or anyone knows why dropdown allows to show placeholder when its readonly.

Hello All ,  we have a database view , using that we created a record ( disable data sync) as Appian record is not allowing view with enable sync option.  facing performance issues with this Appian record picker, please can someone help with the following questions :  Question 1 : how can we implement a minimum character requirement for the search input in the record picker (pickerFieldRecords) to reduce the number of database queries ? Question 2 : how can we limit the initial load to a smaller subset (i.e. only load 20 result based on user filter) of records to prevent performance bottlenecks ? Question 3 : is there a way to implement Appian caches record data in memory with disabled data sync record  type ? Thanks!

Old requirement: User used to enter multiple email addresses separated with a comma and that combined value was sent from Appian to API for sending emails. Here the highlighted rule input was saved as Text type in Interface. Now the requirement from API end has been changed and they have updated the Email addresses variable to list of items. In order to handle this I have updated the Rule input to store multiple values I tried to use a!foreach() in the saveinto parameter of  a!textField() but Interface is not recognizing the multiple values as list of items. Can i please get some suggestions on how to handle this?

Hello Appian community, I have a question regarding the implementation of a translation framework on record values in Appian. Currently, we are using database-backed records to store and display various referential data (such as status or list of values). I would like to apply a translation framework to dynamically translate these values into different languages when displaying a grid of record values. I am concerned about having to create a complex a!match statement to connect these values with Translation Set entries. Has anyone had experience with this or can provide guidance on the best practices for implementing such a solution using Translation Sets? Any advice or resources would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hi, I am getting this issue when selecting value from dropdown for one particular user at function a!gridField_19r1 [line 71]: A grid component [label=""] has an invalid value for "columns" and "value". All "data" arrays must not contain more items than the specified "batchSize", but "batchSize" was 10 and the largest column data array had 17 items.

I have four tables; Event, Parish, Parish Profile and Parish Event. Event holds all possible events a parish can sign up for.  It has a unique key of Evemt_ID and fields Event (name of the event) and Start_Date Parish holds Parish data and has a unique key of Parish_ID. Parish Profile holds some additional information about what type of speaker they would like at their event.  Not every Parish has a Parish Profile. Parish Event hold the history of all the events a Parish has signed up for.  Not all Parishes with a profile sign up for all events.  Some chose to participate last year, but not this year. It has a unique key of Paris_Event_ID and foreign keys, Event_ID and Parish_ID. I want to display in the Parish Profile Record List the latest Event the Parish signed up for. I currently use an expression rule to display this value in the column. However, i can't sort and the filter i wrote pulls all Parish Profiles with that has the event in its relationship.

Basically im developing a start form where i get a list of records that contain a a docID and a dropdown.  The interface has a editable grid where the user can add rows and per row the user can add a document (file uploadField) and a dropdown.  My issue is that on both fields i selected the value and the save with ri!VALUE and when i add a document it makes it so that in all the rows that document is selected and the same for the dropdowns. How can i make that per row created the save and the value creates a new array? In the interface i have already selected the ri! as multiple.   ill leave the code here , and thanks in advance to all,  a!localVariables(   local!rowsTemp: a!gridRowLayout(     contents: {       a!fileUploadField(         label: "Input File",         labelPosition: "ABOVE",      &n

Hi Team, I'm currently stuck at a point and would appreciate your input. I need to display different colors for different countries in a column chart. Below is the database structure I'm working with country ListId(pK), .countryId(int), isAllowed(boolean) Note: I want to show only allowed countries data in column chart. I grouped the data by countryId, and I want to display different colors for different ranges of country IDs in a column chart. For example: Country IDs 1, 2, 3, and 4 should be shown in blue Country IDs 5, 6, 7, and 8 in yellow Country IDs 9 and 10 in another color These colors are just examples. If this approach is feasible, I will apply it to the actual requirement.

I have question like can we make editable grid to have a scroll after 4 rows.
