In under four weeks, Appian customer AARP built a robust, secure, and engaging Appian Portals experience to support the Fraud Watch Volunteer program providing support to fraud victims among AARP's 40 million members.

"We needed a way to accept and process applications from volunteers, and we spent more than 18 months looking for a technology that would enable that while meeting our very strict security requirements," said Fisnik Shpuza, Director of Workflow Automation at AARP. "Appian Portals gave us everything we needed. It's secure, it's beautiful and looks like an AARP web page, and it connects all the incoming data directly into our process."

The new release makes it easier than ever to build beautiful and intuitive web and mobile Portals that engage external users in a seamless total experience with internal employees. New features include:

• Start Process from Portals: Start any process automation directly from a Portals interface. Appian customers can initiate end-to-end process automations directly in a Portal enabling orchestration of AI services, assigning human tasks or executing robotic process automations.
• Query Appian's data fabric from Portals: Streamlined ability to query and display record data from Appian's data fabric in Portals, without the need for complex integration calls.
• Portals Header Bar and Pages: Engage Portals users with great experiences. Add a header bar for multi-page navigation to connect with your users in more ways, all with no code.
• Portals Change Management: Changing and iterating Portals is even easier. With the addition of new proactive actions and recommendations, Appian proactively updates portals and notifies developers when objects change.

The Appian data fabric unifies data across systems without moving the data, dramatically reducing the time and effort needed to build powerful applications. The latest Appian release includes enhancements that make working with the data fabric easier than ever, including:

• Centralized Record Security: Secure all aspects of your records in one place. Quickly specify who can see which records and record views and what actions they can take.
• No-Code Security Rules: Specify security rules for Record Views by answering two simple questions: Who can see the data, and when can they see it?
• Simplification: Appian's data fabric features drag-and-drop record type configurations, auto-generation of user record type relationships, database updates with codeless data modeling, the ability to combine data across record types, and more.
