 In the current version of K2 Five (5.2) and K2 Cloud (Update 6), there is no out-of-the-box way to copy/move/deploy custom workspaces from 1 environment to the next - they must be recreated from scratch, which could easily lead to human errors and confusion. The attached SQL Server script file, and steps below, will how to copy/deploy a custom workspace to a new environment.

Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), connect to the SQL Server Instance that houses the source environment K2 database.2. Select the "K2" database, then open the attached SQL script-file.3. At the top o fthe scriptfile, change the name of the @customWorkspaceName variable to reflect the name of the custom workspace that you want to copy/deploy. 10.

Hi everyone,I have requirement where i have fixed set of questionnaire created using Nintex form. What i need is to export the complete dump once user submits the form. Number of questions is fixed to 100.Please note: I am not looking to connect each and every field in Nintex form to a SharePoint list > and export it to excel.

When a SmartObject is created it is bound to the GUID of the underlying ServiceObject instance for that specific environment. This binding exists within the SmartObject file (.sodx). When the SmartObject file is moved to a different environment this ServiceObject Instance GUID is no longer valid and thus the SmartObject effectively loses its binding to the underlying ServiceObject instance. This utility attempts to alleviate this issue by converting the ServiceObject instance GUIDs in the SmartO

Hi I’ve been asked to include the functionality to clone a list item so that a user would be able to clock ‘Copy’ and it would create an identical list item which the user could then edit.I’m guessing I’d use the Copy Item action. Would I be able to copy the item back to the same list and when configuring the action how do I get the action to select all the columns? Thanks in advance.

Hi All, Looking for anyone based in Sydney or Regional NSW (in Australia) who is currently using Nintex Workflow Cloud at either a Local or State level.Cheers!

 Symptoms "Could not load file or assembly 'SourceCode.HostClientAPI' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format."Getting this error when deploying custom web project (asp.net) with SourceCode assemblies referenced, on iis and iisexpress. Diagnoses In K2 blackpearl 4.6.11, SourceCode assemblies are 64 bit, therefore iisexpress and iis application pool needs to be configured to support 64 bit assemblies. Also, need to make sure to get SourceCode 64 bit assemblies from the Blackpearl/HostServer/Bin folder instead of assemblies from the Blackpearl/Bin folder. Resolution Copied SourceCode assemblies from the Blackpearl/HostServer/Bin folder and referenced them on the web project. Configure each assembly to copy local (set to True).Configured iis express to run as 64 bit process per following page:http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rob/archive/2013/11/14/debugging-vs2013-websites-using-64-bit-iis-express.aspxIf the site is hosted on IIS, need to configur

Hi, Recently i have started working on Nintex Responsive Forms, I am  trying to call the REST APIs in the Nintex Responsive forms. I searched in the form->settings-custom Javascript text area.

Symptoms The following error occurs while trying to deploy a project using K2 for Visual Studio:Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.Parameter name: index DiagnosesThis was caused by a missing SmartObject configuration. The GUID of the SmartObject causing the issue was returned by running through the Smartforms client events in the process.Resolution The error was caused by a missing Workspace SQL Service configuration. The service was reconfigured, and the error was resolved. 

I have a repeater with multiple values that get added together outside the repeater in a calculated value control. This works fine. When editing an item that was already created, the calculated value shows zero. In order to show the correct value, I have to force it to recalculate by changing a number or adding an additional row to the repeater(which adds zero the current total).How can I get around this? If I set the "calculate on edit" to no, it just doesn't update at all. If I set it to yes, it starts off at 0 and I have to force it to calculate by making a change.

Hello,one of our customers has inactivated Active Directory Users. These Users cannot be find in the SharePoint People Picker, but in the Nintex People Picker they are still present and selectable.If these Users get Tasks....they cannot be finished. Is there a solution for this?Thanks you.

I have created a workflow that uses the Update Document action to update plain text content controls in a Word document. The controls are set to allow editing and I have also tried setting the option that remove the content control on edit.For documents that are generated using the template & workflow the contents of the content control cannot be edited. I cannot place a cursor inside the text...it highlights as a single large block.If I edit the template manually I can edit the contents as would be expected.It seems that controls populated by the workflow action are effectively read only.Should that be the case? Has anyone else experienced this and is aware of a resolution?Thanks!

I have a SP list that has multiple dates that will be populated at different times for an item.  I want to send an email when these date fields are populated.  It seems when you choose 'start when items are modified' as conditional it starts the workflow for the condition but also any time other items are modified.  Is there a way to have it only run on the conditional startup options?

I have had a Nintex workflow on a SharePoint list since March and it has been working up until today. For some reason when some one enters an item into a SharePoint List it assigns the task, but then they immediately get an e-mail saying response no longer required. Does anyone know why this might be occurring? Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

With Nintex Forms for Sharepoint 2016 / Sharepoint Online, I am currently using a list lookup control connected to a SP list that could potentially exceed 65000 items.    Is it best practice to keep this configuration or Should I expect potential issues, such as display problem or long search delays ?    Thank you for your help.     

Dear All, I want to hide control text in forms, display only radio buttons without numbers. Thanks in advance.

I am in SP 2016. I have a customer and orders lists. Using my workflow, I am retrieving customer id from the customer list. I want to use the same id to grab information from the orders list. But before doing that want to check if that entry is already there in the Orders list.    I am thinking of creating a switch or if then statement. If record is there, update it. If not, create it. How do I check if the record is already there. How do I check for blank values?   Your help is appreciated.

I got this to work on the form designer using the preview option, but when i try and use the form in sharepoint the fields flicker. I suspect its because they share the connected to title? Any work arounds for this? My goal is to be able to look up a company from another list determine when they are preapproved and the instructions if they are.

I created a workflow with "Request Approval" workflow action in my acceptance server. This action has a custom task form. Later I exported and imported this workflow into production server. When tried to publish, the "Request Approval" action shows a message "The form has control(s) that have incomplete property settings" and not allowing me to publish the form.I tried open and save each and every field from the custom task from and also make sure the fields are connected to respective list columns (wherever applicable). But still no luck.

I apologize for the long post, I want to make sure I give all the info needed   Background: I have a list that has  several locations. Each record/item has a renewal date,a ddress, and contact person etc. I have been trying to build a workflow that checks to see which items have a renewal date within the next 25 days.   I'm getting stuck on pulling the data from each location that is impacted (renewal date in next 25 days)  and assigning a separate flex task for each impacted location.    Problem: 1)When I add an email notification I receive the correct amount of emails but only the location names are correct none all the other information if accurate and all other pieces of information are listed as the exact same. example:  NJ campus and PA campus both have a renewal date within the next 25 days I will receive 2  emails saying: The NJ campus expires o

Hi Everyone,This is my first post within the community.Devices:SharePoint 2010Ipad Air 2IphoneBackground Detail:I have a Time Study form that I put together that stores time stamps based off selection inputs. There is a repeating section that stores values in multi line text (inputted as XML). I created multiple layouts. I have one for Desktop, Iphone and Ipad.The form works 100% of the time when opened (Clicking 'Add New Item') on the Desktop and I am able to fill out the form completely. When I open the form on an Iphone or Ipad , after navigating through SharePoint, and clicking 'Add New Item' The form loads and pops up, but it is "greyed" out and you cannot input anything into the form.Question:How do I keep the form from "greying" out when opened on an Ipad or Iphone device so the user is able to complete the form?Thank you!Brad

I created a work flow where 30 days prior to the date in one of the date fields a request for data gets sent to a user to input a new date to replace the existing date (I have a set field icon to update the list field). I would like to set it up so it automatically restarts the entire process the same time next year etc.... How can I accomplish this?   Thank you for your help in advance    

The DB has reached over 26000000 entries whilst threshold is 10000000. Is there an opition or possibility to increase the threshold <WorkflowProgress>10000000</WorkflowProgress> within one specific database instead of global change? This article talks about performing a global change but in our case; we like to make the relevant change for the WorkflowProgress only for one specific database.Is this possible? If so, is there a guide how to perform this task?Thanks
