Question#1

You need to update an existing Appian application.
The application needs to be responsive and compatible with a variety of screen widths. For example:
phone/tablet browser, Appian mobile app, desktop monitor.
Which two functions/parameters should you consider when updating the interfaces? (Choose two.)

A. stackWhen in Columns Layout and Side By Side Layout
B. a!isNativeMobile()
C. Width of a page in the site object
D. a!isPageWidth()

Explanation:
The stackWhen parameter in layout components helps interfaces adapt to different screen sizes by controlling when columns or side-by-side layouts stack vertically.
The a!isNativeMobile() function detects if the interface is being viewed on a native mobile app, allowing you to tailor the interface for mobile responsiveness.

Question#2

You're creating a new entity-backed record type without data sync enabled. Users in the "ACME Supervisors" group must be able to access the Delete Case related action on the record summary view.
What are two valid steps that you should perform to grant users the appropriate access?

A. Grant Viewer permissions to the underlying interface object for the Summary view.
B. Add the "ACME Supervisors" group as a member of the "Database Editors" group and grant DELETE privileges.
C. Update the record action security for "Delete Case" and include the "ACME Supervisors" group within the visibility settings.
D. Add the "ACME Supervisors" group as a Viewer to the data store mapped to the record.

Explanation:
Adding "ACME Supervisors" as members of "Database Editors" with DELETE privileges allows them to perform delete operations.
Updating the "Delete Case" record action security and including "ACME Supervisors" in the visibility settings ensures they have access to the related action on the record summary view.

Question#3

You need to allow external systems to invoke Appian web APIs.
Which user role should be assigned?

A. System Administrator
B. Service Account
C. Application User

Explanation:
A Service Account user role is specifically designed for integrations, allowing external systems to securely authenticate and invoke Appian web APIs.

Question#4

You're conducting a design review.
You identify slow-performing expression rules querying a specific data store, and need to understand the "number of operations against data stores."
Which metric from the data_store_details.csv file is helpful to you?

A. Execute Count
B. Query Count
C. TCCCotal Count

Explanation:
The "Query Count" metric in the data_store_details.csv file indicates the number of operations (queries) performed against data stores, helping you analyze data store usage.

Question#5

You’re establishing a Health Check schedule for your department.
Which two statements should you consider when implementing Health Checks? (Choose two.)

A. Run a Health Check at least once a month in production as part of server and application monitoring.
B. Run Health Checks during regular business hours in production to identify issues during heavy usage.
C. Configure a weekly Health Check cadence for the development environment.
D. Run Health Checks during regular non-business hours in production to avoid slowing down the environment.

Explanation:
Running a Health Check at least once a month in production is best practice for ongoing monitoring and early issue detection.
Running Health Checks during non-business hours in production helps avoid performance impact on end users.
