Question 1

You are configuring a local variable on an interface to store the date and time that the username field was last modified. The local variables are currently configured as follows:

Which a!refreshVariable configuration should be added so that local!usernameLastModified stores the correct timestamp?



Answer : B

The a!refreshVariable function should be configured to refresh when the local!username variable changes. This is achieved by setting the refreshOnVarChange parameter to local!username, which will update the local!usernameLastModified variable with the current timestamp whenever local!username is modified. Reference:

Appian Documentation: a!refreshVariable Function


Question 2

Review the following code snippet:

displayvalue(1, {0, 1, 2}, {"Low", "Medium", "High"}, "Unknown")

The definition of displayvalue is:

Tries to match a value in a given array with a value at the same index in a replacement array and returns either the value at the same index or a default value if the value is not found.

What does this code snippet return?



Answer : B

The displayvalue() function matches a given value with an array and returns the value at the same index from a replacement array or a default value if not found. In the snippet displayvalue(1, {0, 1, 2}, {'Low', 'Medium', 'High'}, 'Unknown'), the value 1 is matched in the array {0, 1, 2} at index 1. The function then returns the value at index 1 in the array {'Low', 'Medium', 'High'}, which is 'Medium'. Reference: Appian Expression Language Documentation - Functions


Question 3

Which Appian feature can help the implementation team analyze the event log data of an existing process?



Answer : B

vent logs. It uses the data from process models to give insights into process performance, bottlenecks, and compliance with the designed process flow. This feature is valuable for understanding the actual performance of business processes and for identifying areas for improvement. Reference: Appian Documentation - Process Mining


Question 4

Which statement about local variables is valid?



Answer : A

In Appian, the data type of a local variable is inferred from the value it is set to. Unlike some other programming languages where the data type must be explicitly declared, Appian determines the data type automatically based on the initial value assigned to the local variable. Local variables in Appian are quite flexible and can store various types of data, including complex data types, not just primitive ones. Reference: Appian Documentation - Local Variables


Question 5

Which set of out-of-the-box features is only available when data sync is enabled on a record type?



Answer : C

Data sync enables additional features for record types in Appian. With data sync enabled, you can define relationships between different record types, add fields to a record type that do not appear in the source database (hidden fields), and configure record-level security to control access to individual records based on user roles or other criteria. These features are part of the enhanced functionality provided by data sync to ensure efficient data management and security within Appian applications.

Question 6

You are creating a new customer onboarding application. Documents are required from customers for verification and onboarding purposes. You need to store these documents within Appian.

Which two areas in Appian should you configure? (Choose two.)



Answer : A, C

In Appian, to store documents such as those required for customer onboarding, you should configure a Knowledge Center and within that, Folders. The Knowledge Center in Appian serves as the top-level container for storing and organizing documents and folders. Folders within a Knowledge Center provide a way to categorize and manage access to documents, making them an essential part of document management in Appian applications. Decision Objects and Feeds are not related to document storage. Reference: Appian Documentation - Knowledge Centers and Folders


Question 7

You have a record type, ABC_Author, backed by a database table.

You need to retrieve the total number of authors without loading all the data.

According to Appian best practices, which code snippet accomplishes this goal in the most efficient way?

A)

B)

C)



Answer : B

According to Appian best practices, the most efficient way to retrieve the total number of authors without loading all the data is to use a query that includes an aggregation function. Option B uses an aggregation field with a COUNT function, which is designed to return the number of rows that match a query without the need to retrieve and load all row data, thus optimizing performance.
