Appian ACD200 Exam - Topic 1 Question 51 Discussion

Actual exam question for Appian's ACD200 exam

Question #: 51
Topic #: 1

An organization has decided to integrate with a third-party to scan incoming documents and capture the details in a table called [appian].[document]. Each document will form a new case in Appian to be displayed on a Record List.

The record needs to show data from both [appian].[document] and [appian].[caseData], which holds additional case information.

What is the most efficient way to achieve this?

ACreate a trigger on the [appian].[document] table to copy all the data across to the [appian].[caseData] table and point the record at [appian].[caseData].

BCreate a SSIS package to run at a regular interval.

CCreate a view between both the [appian].[document] and [appian].[caseData] tables to feed the record.

DCreate a stored procedure to query the data from both the [appian].[document] and [appian].[caseData] tables.

Wait, why not just use a view instead of copying data?

A sounds like a lot of unnecessary data duplication.

I have a vague memory of SSIS packages being used for data integration, but I’m not confident if option B is the right choice here.

I practiced a similar question where we had to decide between triggers and stored procedures. I think D could work, but it might be less efficient than a view.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like creating a trigger could lead to data inconsistencies. Option A seems risky.

I disagree, D would give more control over the query.

I remember we discussed using views in class, and I think option C might be the best way to combine data without duplicating it.

This is a tricky one. I'm not sure if any of the options are really the "most efficient" way to do this. I might try to get some more information about the specific requirements and the expected volume of data before deciding. If it's a relatively small amount of data, maybe a stored procedure (option D) would be the simplest approach. But if the data is more complex or changes frequently, a view (option C) could be better. I'll need to think this through a bit more.

Okay, let me think this through. I think the key here is to find the most efficient way to get the data from both tables into the record list. Option A with a trigger seems like it could work, but that might get messy if the data in the [appian].[document] table changes a lot. Option B with SSIS could work, but that feels a bit overkill for this use case. I'm leaning towards option C with the view - it seems like the cleanest and most maintainable solution.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm not super familiar with Appian, so I'm not sure if a view is the best approach. Maybe option D with a stored procedure would be better? That way I can encapsulate the logic in one place and make it easier to maintain.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. I'd probably go with option C and create a view between the two tables. That way, the data is always up-to-date and I don't have to worry about maintaining any triggers or scheduled jobs.

Option A with a trigger sounds like it could work, but I'm not sure if that's the most efficient approach. Triggers can sometimes cause performance issues, especially if the volume of documents is high. I'd probably lean more towards a view or a stored procedure.

I think option D with a stored procedure could work well here. That way, we can encapsulate the logic for querying both tables and return a single result set. It might be a bit more work upfront, but it could make the record list more maintainable in the long run.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions integrating with a third-party system, so I'm not sure if a view would be the best approach. Maybe option B with a SSIS package would be more robust and flexible?

This looks like a straightforward data integration problem. I'd probably start by considering option C - creating a view between the two tables. That seems like the most efficient approach to get the data from both sources into a single record.

I'm torn between options C and D. A view or a stored procedure both sound reasonable, but I'd probably lean towards the stored procedure to keep the logic more encapsulated.
