Appian Exam ACD101 Topic 2 Question 20 Discussion

Actual exam question for Appian's ACD101 exam

Question #: 20
Topic #: 2

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?

ArefreshInterval: 0

BrefreshOnVarChange: local!username

CrefreshAlways: true

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested 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.

I think both options could work, but refreshOnVarChange might be more efficient in this case.

Haha, I'm just picturing the developer who thought 'refreshInterval: 0' was a good idea. That's a recipe for a never-ending loop!

A is not going to work at all. We need the variable to refresh, not stay static.

Then maybe option B) refreshOnVarChange: local!username would be the best choice.

I think we should go with option C) refreshAlways: true.

But if we want the timestamp to be updated whenever the username field is modified, shouldn't we use refreshOnVarChange?

C seems a bit overkill, don't you think? Refreshing it constantly would be a waste of resources.

Hmm, I think B is the way to go. Refreshing the variable whenever the username changes makes perfect sense.

Definitely, having it refresh on username change will give us the most accurate information.
