My approach is to first convert the document to a Base64 string and then pass that Base64 value to the HTML templateHowever, the image is not rendering in the received email.

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

Hello, I am working on an automation process where I use Appian RPA to login to a website and download an excel file (XLS format).My initial plan was to use “Import Excel to Database” smart service (Excel Tools plugin) to import the data directly into the required table. Unfortunately, this is not working as this smart service only works on XLSX and not XLS.  I then tried converting XLS to CSV and then use “Import CSV to Database” smart service (Excel Tools plugin). But even here the file type allowed in XLSX.  Finally, since I have Appian RPA in the scene, I tried opening the excel using “Open Workbook” operation and use “Save Workbook As” operation to convert it into an XLSX file. But this was only changing the name of the file and not the type.Can anyone point me in the direction that I should be taking in Appian to get the data from the XLS file into the database table? Regards,Deepak

 Hi all,During ongoing development, external application contents were accidentally added into a main application container using the add application contents option, significantly inflating the object count with foreign components and shared utilities.Before proceeding with cleanup, the goal is to confirm whether filtering by foreign prefixes and selecting "Remove from Application" solely detaches the container tag without altering published rules, impacting runtime execution for dependent models, or interfering with active changes in the environment.Note that there isn't a direct "Remove Application from Application" option available to undo this action in bulk. Any guidance on the safest workflow to prune these bulk-associated objects would be appreciated.Thanks!

Hi Appian Community, wanted to see if anyone has this setup of being an Appian Cloud customer and has email server setup with Microsoft 365 cloud SMTP relay, specifically for outbound emails from Appian → External Recipients?I am able to receive outbound emails from the Appian platform with my organization’s internal email addresses. The problem is when testing by sending to external email addresses (both business email addresses, tested by sending to @microsoft.com and personal email addresses, tested by sending to @gmail.com and @hotmail.com). They failed with 2 different error messages from the STDout log: Error 1 (Attempt to send to external business emails): 451 4.4.62 Mail sent to the wrong Office 365 region. ATTR35.

sites have urls like this one:https://<subdomain>.<domain>/suite/sites/<SiteName> subdomains:https://<subdomain>.<domain>/<PortalName> We want them to be resolve them with the SiteName as the subdomainhttps://<SiteporPortalName>.<domain> Is it possible somehow to create a redirect url on your side (appian cloud) so that specific sites/portal can be resolved with unique urls. I am aware that we would have to create a dns delegation for that but the problem is that we cannot create delegations with url paths (i.e. /suite/sites/<SiteName>) and we do not seem to have a make that redirection.

Is pursuing a career as an Appian developer a wise choice?

Hi everyone, We're planning to upgrade our production environment to Appian 26.6 and currently we are on 25.3 version, wanted to check with the community before proceeding. For those who have already upgraded to 26.6, have you encountered any significant issues, regressions, or unexpected behavior after the upgrade?   Our application is a fairly large enterprise solution with extensive use of Record Types, Process Models, Connected Systems, integrations, and custom plug-ins, so we're keen to understand if there are any unexpected issues faced due to upgrade.   Any feedback or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi All, Our users have been experiencing this intermittent issue quite frequently. The problem occurs randomly while users are actively working on a task or viewing a summary screen, and there doesn't appear to be any consistent pattern or specific steps to reproduce it. As this is occurring in the production environment and we do not have direct access, we have been unable to capture a network HAR file for further analysis and not able to reproduce in lower environments. Has anyone encountered a similar issue before? Could this be related to the browser (we are using Microsoft Edge), a network-related problem, or something else? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hi All! I completed the ACD101: Appian Certified Associate Developer exam on 05/16/2026. The exam status in the ProctorU portal shows “Fulfilled” ,”but my certification/result is still not visible in my Appian account and not get any score report. Also, the exam auto-submitted before I manually clicked the final submit button and I got no email for my score or any pop up to show my score while auto submitted. I already contacted certifications@appian.com and support@appian.com but have not received a response yet since saturday. Has anyone faced a similar issue before? How long does it usually take for the certification/result to appear?or what step i need to take next? Thank you.
