Question 56

You connected multiple input paths to an XOR gateway in a loop.

What will happen when the second input flow reaches the gateway?

    Correct Answer: C

    When multiple input flows are connected to an XOR gateway, only one of the incoming flows is allowed to proceed along one of the outgoing paths, while the others will throw an error or be discontinued. The first flow executes successfully, and the subsequent input flows arriving at the XOR gateway cannot proceed since the XOR gateway is designed to handle exclusive paths, causing them to throw an error.

It's funny that I paid for this exam and it turns out it's not entirely accurate. I deserve a refund for correcting all this stuff LOL.

nyxxx, you're wrong, I'm sure you're deliberately answering it wrong. For example, in the question "Given a Text type input of ri!text, which function will return that text without any spaces in the text?" you have claimed things that anyone who has read the documentation knows is a lie, and you have claimed that "according to the documentation..." when you have not. So constantly, whenever there are at least 2 posts in the discussion I know that one is going to be yours and that you are going to make up the documentation as you please. There are several answers to questions that are wrong among the whole battery of questions, but you miss the ones that are impossible to miss. I don't know if you work for Appian or what, but stop confusing people on purpose.

nyxxxOption: B

According to Appian Documentation (XOR Gateway), when multiple input flows are connected to an XOR gateway, the first flow token through to an exclusive outgoing flow, and subsequent flow tokens wait for all incoming flows to arrive before executing the output flow decision. Therefore, when the second input flow reaches the XOR gateway, it will wait for all the other incoming flows to arrive before the output flow decision is made. So, the answer is B. The first flow executes successfully, and the remaining will wait indefinitely.

OmieOhMyOption: D

Correct Answer: D (The first flow executes successfully, and the remaining will be skipped.) Support: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/23.4/XOR_Node.html "A looping flow should not be directed into an XOR gateway itself, but into another upstream activity. For example, place an empty Script Task node between the incoming flows and the XOR node when you are routing multiple flows into the XOR." https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/general/7196/xor-gateway-stuck
