Hello Appian Community,I'm currently investigating password visibility behavior in an Appian Cloud environment running version 26.6.The native Appian username/password login page displays a masked password field, but there is no visible eye icon or Show/Hide Password option.Interestingly, the password visibility option appears to be available during the password reset/change workflow, creating an inconsistent user experience.I reviewed the following areas in the Administration Console: Authentication → Sign-In Page: Provides identity provider configuration, but no password visibility setting. Branding → Sign-In and Tempo: Provides logo and appearance customization, but no password visibility setting. I would appreciate clarification on the following: Does Appian 26.6 support a native Show/Hide Password toggle on the initial login screen? Is there a supported configuration or feature flag to enable this functionality? Why might password visibility be available during password rese

Fitness Testing : How to write test script to validate grid field level validation messages through fitness I wanted to test fitness required field validation for a grid row and grid validation message. Please guide me with the cheat sheet code. 

Here is the scenario:1) We have 2 different Appian applications running on the same instance2) Our organization policy requires us to have a SAML configuration per application, so we have 23) Each of these SAML configurations is configured to "Create new users upon sign in"4) The SSO Team passes the application name in the SAML attributesAppian displays the sign-in page and prompts the user to select the SAML configuration to use. We created Authentication Group rules to put someone in the group associated with the SAML config according to the attribute described in #4 above, but it does not work. The user gets 401 Unauthorized.

Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue with transferring my Appian certifications, Academy Online achievements, and badges from my current organization account to my personal account. I have already reached out to multiple teams, including Appian Technical Support, Appian Community, Academy Online support, and the Certifications team. I was informed that the request would be resolved within two working days. However, it has been longer than that, and I have not received any proper response or update despite multiple follow-ups. Has anyone faced a similar issue before? If so, could you please guide me on how to get this resolved or whom to contact for faster support? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Appian 24.1 My project receives a JSON document that is somewhere between 50 - 100 KB in size normally. We jamb it into a Record Type (as a json string), read it from a process model, convert this to a CDT (hierarchy), pass it to an interface (a hierarchy of them really). So far, all that we have built runs fine. Now we had a case where the JSON document was over 1 MB. This threw an error when we tried to write it to a record type. Apparently, there is a record size limit of 1 MB within Appian for tables that sync to record types. So, now we are looking at redesigning the data storage. Clearly, we need to break up/normalize the data into a set of relational tables (vs just 1 table as we have today). But from there I seem to have some options and I don't know what is best Option 1 - Read the record types within the process model and rebuild the JSON object so it may be passed to the interfaces.This moves the max size question from the table row to the process model variable. Can it

Hi Everyone, Just checking if anyone has come across this issue, when I try to drag and drop emails directly from the new outlook into document upload function it doesnt do anything. Same feature works fine when I drag and drop emails out of classic outlook.  

Hello everyone! Just a quick question,  how should I prepare for it? Is retaking the Appian Developer Learning Path quizzes enough, or should I practice with other types of tests as well? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Can we add emojis in paragraph field?

We are trying to build CICD using Github and Github actions. Could we get help around setting up Github for Appian.

I am exploring different ways to make digital workflows more efficient, especially when a process involves both Appian and external online tools.Sometimes a workflow may involve collecting information, processing files or media, and then saving the results for later use. I have also been researching simple online tools such as SanpTikk.io for saving TikTok videos when offline access is needed.My question is about how others approach these external tools within Appian workflows.Do you usually connect external services through APIs, handle them outside Appian, or use another approach when there is no direct integration available?I would be interested in hearing how experienced Appian developers handle this kind of workflow while keeping the process simple and reliable.

Hi everyone,I've been exploring workflow automation and was curious how others approach repetitive business processes.I work in medical billing, where a typical workflow can involve insurance claims, follow-ups, documentation, spreadsheets, emails, and status updates. A lot of these tasks are repetitive, so I've been thinking about where automation could actually save the most time without making the process unnecessarily complicated.For those using Activepieces, what would you automate first in a workflow like this?For example, would you use it for: Sending notifications when a claim status changes Moving information between spreadsheets and other systems Creating follow-up tasks automatically Connecting forms or webhooks with internal tools Generating reports or summaries I'd also be interested in hearing which Activepieces integrations or features you have found most useful for business workflows.What automation has saved you the most manual work?Thanks for sharing your expe

I like the Designer Appian Dev Agent to double check my implementation ideas, but a minor annoyance is that for a given project it needs to reload every past conversation which can take a while. Maybe there are logs or cookies per project somewhere that can be removed?  If I select ‘New chat’, then leave and return, it loads all past conversations again.I feel like I might be missing something as we received 26.6 a few months ago and this was a new feature in that.

I am getting the below error while navigating to the Plan tab inside the application container. Any possible solutions or suggestions to fix it.This issue also not letting me to open the application from designer. The System Has Encountered an ErrorHTTP Code: 500 APNX-1-4198-000 Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = e7f4a:bc82f] : Cannot invoke "com.appiancorp.core.expr.portable.Value.getType()" because "value" is null  

Hi , We are working with email data where the email body can contain around 46,000 characters. In Microsoft SQL Server, the complete email body is stored and displayed correctly within a single row.However, when we export the query results to a CSV file, some email bodies are getting split across multiple lines in the CSV output. This appears to happen only for certain emails containing large amounts of text, line breaks, or special formatting.Has anyone encountered a similar issue when exporting large text fields from SQL Server?Is this expected CSV behaviour due to embedded line breaks? Are there any recommended approaches to preserve the email body as a single field during export? Has anyone faced related challenges when importing such CSV data into Appian?Any insights or best practices would be appreciated.Thanks!

We have Appian on-premise and we have a requirement to create a page where external users can access it (users are not Appian Users) and Appian Portals are the best to achieve it. However, being On-premise, the portals are disabled and we are not able to enable the portals. Any suggestions or alternatives to achieve the requirement.

Hi,  We have a requirement to migrate approximately 18 million records from an external system into an Appian Cloud database.We are currently considering the following approaches: Export data from the source system and import it directly into the Appian Cloud database. However, we noticed there appears to be a file size limitation (around 2 MB per import file), which may make this approach challenging for such a large volume of data. Use an Appian Process Model with the "Import CSV to Database" Smart Service to load the data in batches. I would appreciate guidance from anyone who has handled a similar large-scale migration:Are there any practical limitations or performance considerations when using the Import CSV to Database Smart Service for very large datasets? Is there a recommended approach for handling data volumes of this size in Appian Cloud? What is the best way to implement logging and audit tracking so that we can monitor successful and failed records during the migration p
