Symptoms

_1
While working through the tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/embed/bqxJLXXT7y0) for Create Reference event and For each loop, ran into an issue when attempting to Count(ItemReference.ID). This always returned only 1 item.

_2
Also, when attempting to create a Package and Deployment from this process results in the following error:

'K2Project1Process' Process is referencing the return type '{kdselectedmethodtype}' of the 'GetList' method on the ''SmartobjectName]' SmartObject that could not be found.
 

Diagnoses

Both behaviors were reproducible and were confirmed as bugs.
