Hello All, I have an issue wherein my validationMessage is not removing after clicking cancel button. My scenario is I have a User Form that whenever I click submit it will show a message "All fields are required". After that I will now click the Cancel Button. However, when I go back to the Form my validation is still there. Can anyone explain to me how can I prevent that from happening?Here's my validation a!validationMessage( message: "You must fill up both roles and email address!", validateAfter: "SUBMIT", showWhen: or(isnull(local!email), isnull(local!role)) ) Here's my field a!textField( label: "Email", labelPosition: "ABOVE", value: local!email, saveInto: local!email, refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS", validations: {} ) I put the validationMessage under the columnLayout.

Hi,  I have an interface with a section layout which displays a read-only grid using a!gridField_19r1(). The data is fetched from a DB view using a query rule and displayed in the grid columns. My requirement is to conditionally display the data in one of the columns called Proposal Type. There is a boolean column named IsEarlyRenewal which stores true or false and for every entry in the view, I need to conditionally display if(IsEarlyRenewal = true, "Early Renewal', whatever the original value of the ProposalType column) . So, example:   id= 12345, IsEarlyRenewal = false, ProposalType = Modification -> ProposalType returned as Modification  id= 56789, IsEarlyRenewal = true, ProposalType=Modifiction => Proposal Type returned as Early Renewal Both the Proposal Type and IsEarlyRenewal  are columns in the view and can be fetched on the interface.  TIA!!

Hi! I have a question. Can I change the message error that appears in the section layout when some other component inside has an error? Bellow its an image of that error message. Thanks for your help!

Hey All, It seems like a common way to cast a value to the type "List of Dictionary" is via: cast(194, local!thingBeingCast) Does anyone know of a way to do this without hardcoding the "194" value? This approach doesn't seem very explicit (I personally have to remind myself of what it's doing in a blank rule whenever I see it), and god-forbid that type id changes one day and needs to be changed one-by-one throughout the codebase. Thanks!

Hi, Currently when user logs in in Appian with "Remember Me" unchecked, the user will be automatically logged out of Appian after a particular threshhold in case its inactive, however this is not the case when "Remeber Me" is ticked/checked. Is there any way in Appian to customize (Remove) "Remember Me" option while logging in for  a particular process ? The process contains PII and its not safe to keep the user logged in for long time when in inactive state.

Hi, I have the following situation: - one interface that is embedded inside the other larger interface - first interface has non submit button that starts process upon click - first interface has 4 rule inputs that are used as parameters for starting the process - these 4 rule inputs are calculated also on the button click, just before sending them to process as parameters Behavior on test: - if I test this interface "manually" from designer, process is successfully started and all the parameters are passed to the process - if I test this interface through the process which contains its "parent" interface, parameters are not forwarded So, this code for the first interface doesn't work: a!localVariables( ... a!buttonLayout( primaryButtons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "Start process", saveInto: { a!save( ri!firstProc_cdt, rule!DLS_mapFirstProcParam(
