Appian ACD-201 Exam Questions : Appian Certified Senior Developer

You're creating a synced record type which will store read-only data from an external web service. Data in the external system is updated nightly, and the latest information must be available to users in the morning. Currently there are approximately 150,000 entries in the external system, and this number is not expected to change significantly.
There is an existing integration object and associated expression rule, which when called returns the complete dataset from the external system.
What are two configurations that you must apply to ensure that the latest and complete record set is available? (Choose two.)

• A. Modify the integration object and associated expression rule to return batches of 1000 based on a batch number passed in from the record type.
• B. Within the record type, schedule a full sync to occur nightly after the data is refreshed in the external system.
• C. Set all record fields to evaluate in real-time so that the latest information is always retrieved from the web service.
• D. Within the Source Filters settings on the record type, disable the row limit option so that all entries can be retrieved from the external system.

You're creating a process model that will serve as the case creation workflow.
Your requirements:
This process captures input from the user before executing a series of unattended subprocess nodes.
Each subprocess performs extended data processing which is dependent on output from each of the previous nodes.
An activity chained task node is displayed asking the user if they'd like to create another case.
What should you do?

• A. Configure the subprocess nodes to run asynchronously and set the inputs to pass as reference to enable data sharing.
• B. Add an AND gate after the first user input task and place the synchronous subprocess nodes on a parallel path.
• C. Combine the separate subprocesses into one synchronous subprocess and place it in between each user input task.

You're designing a custom component rule!pagingComponent() to page through a list of items. The component must display the current page numbers being shown, as well as the total number of items. Users should be able to click arrows to increase or decrease the pagination.
Review the following:

Which two patterns should be used when calling the component in this scenario? (Choose two.)

• A. A rule input ri!pagingInfo on rule!pagingComponent() with a local variable of the same name in the main interface with an initial value. When the arrows are clicked, this updates the value of the local variable in the main interface.
• B. A local variable local!totalCount calculated using count(local!query), which is passed into rule!pagingComponent() via a rule input. The data type of local!query is a list of record or Custom Data Type (CDT).
• C. Passing into the rule input totalCount of rule!pagingComponent() the value: local!query.totalCount where local!query is returning a dataSubset and returnTotalCount = "True".
• D. A local variable local!pagingInfo inside rule!pagingComponent() with an initial value. When the arrows are clicked, this updates the value of the local variable.

A recent Health Check report of your application indicates an increased risk of large context size in the interfaces.
What are two possible contributors to this risk? (Choose two.)

• A. The load variable has a web service response as JSON.
• B. Local variables are set to refresh every five minutes.
• C. Data transformation is performed inside the interface rather than delegated to the source system.
• D. Multiple local variables hold duplicate data.

A view is created with the primary table PERSON and is joined using a left join with the APPOINTMENT table on the column "PERSON_ID". There is a one-to-many relationship between the PERSON and APPOINTMENT tables.
A Custom Data Type (CDT) and a data store entity have been created based on this view, with the primary key being "PERSON_ID".
Review the data presented in the PERSON and APPOINTMENT tables:

Which two statements are true when the following query entity is executed? (Choose two.)

• A. Appian makes one more query to the database(other than the actual query to fetch the data) to get the totalCount based on the applied filters.
• B. Appian makes one more query to the database(other than the actual query to fetch the data) to get the totalCount based on the applied filters and paging info.
• C. result totalCount is 1
• D. result totalCount is 3
