Records Flashcards
What are the advantages of a Data Synced record?
Data sync caches your source data in Appian. Appian only has to execute queries against your synced data instead of the external source, so your record data will load faster.
Easy to change your data model and access the data you need. For example, instead of needing a data expert to configure complex database views to relate and transform your data, you can do it yourself using record type relationships and custom record fields.
Keep your synced data up-to-date with the source by automatically with record smart services
What is an Appian Record Type object?
an object used to unify data entities in a single data model. Users can configure the data source to relational databases, web services, process models, and Salesforce.
Users can define a record list and configure record actions, define record relationships, and user security to define who can view and modify records.
Utilizing data sync enables users to use smart services to automatically update records directly into the data source.
