You're developing a user input form for a government services application that includes a file upload component.

If the uploaded file is a multimedia file (for example: .MP4, .MOV or .WAV), the customer wants these uploaded to Microsoft SharePoint instead.

What is the best way to achieve this requirement?

  1. Use the out-of-the-box Appian Connected System, but since it does not have any pre-built connected systems, you will need to use either a HTTP or OpenAI Connected System to connect with SharePoint.
  2. Develop a connected system plug-in given SharePoint has an extensive API that cannot easily be resolved using the Appian out-of-the-box Connected System.
  3. Use the out-of-the-box Appian Connected System as it has a pre-built connected system to SharePoint to provide a guided experience for designers to send and receive data.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Appian provides an out-of-the-box pre-built connected system for SharePoint, allowing you to integrate file uploads to SharePoint with a guided experience for configuration--making this the best way to fulfill the requirement.



Your client reported that a form in the application is very slow to load.

You investigate and find a query entity which is nor performing well.

Which action should you perform to improve query performance for the query entity?

  1. Change the data source of the query entity to a view with a WHERE clause.
  2. Apply indices on all the fields referred in the query.
  3. Apply the appropriate filters and indices in both Appian and the database.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Applying appropriate filters and indices in both Appian and the database ensures that only relevant data is retrieved and the database query runs efficiently, improving overall query performance.



You need to write an expression to retrieve a list of all account managers who don't currently have an active customer account.

Which code snippet should you use?

A)



B)



C)

  1. Option A
  2. Option B
  3. Option C

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Chosen snippet uses the difference() function to efficiently get all account managers who are not currently managers of any customer account. It directly compares local!accountManagers to local!customers.manager, resulting in a concise and optimal solution for retrieving account managers without an active customer account.



You're creating a new record type with data sync enabled. Users in the "ACME Employees" group must be able to access the record list and start the New Case action.

What are two valid steps that you should perform to grant users the appropriate access? (Choose two.)

  1. Add the "ACME Employees" group as a Viewer on the record type.
  2. Add the "ACME Employees" group as a Viewer to the data store mapped to the record.
  3. Grant Viewer permissions to the underlying interface object for the record list.
  4. Grant Initiator permissions to the underlying process model for the New Case action.

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

Adding the "ACME Employees" group as a Viewer on the record type allows them to access the record list.

Granting Initiator permissions to the process model for the New Case action enables group members to start that action.



You have designed a three-step 'Wizard' form interaction using user input tasks in the process model. The second step of the Wizard must utilize another process model which contains a user input task inside.

Which two methods should be implemented for a seamless Wizard-like interaction for the user? (Choose two.)

  1. Enable activity-chaining between all nodes on the main process model.
  2. Enable activity chaining between all nodes in the second process model, and activity chain between all user input tasks.
  3. Use a subprocess to call the second process model.
  4. Use the Start Process smart service to call the second process model.

Answer(s): A,C

Explanation:

Enabling activity-chaining between all nodes on the main process model ensures the wizard steps flow seamlessly for the user.

Using a subprocess to call the second process model allows the main process to incorporate its user input task as part of the wizard flow with activity-chaining support.
