@Manoj_Accenture, 

I am doing a little research into Active Directory Service 2.  I have an idea,  haven't tested it yet, but see if you like it. 

Is it possible to create a group, using the AD group SmartObject.

add a@a.com and b@b.com to the group.

Then use the Get UsersByGroup method on the group that you created. 

This is a Load Method which will return all the users in the specified Group. 

Let me know if that gets you started on part 1. 

@Manoj_Accenture,

I was looking through this training: http://help.k2.com/k2lm-200aus.aspx When you are assigning the tasks, you can click a box that will  Resolve all roles and groups to users. If you could do the previous step I posted and add the users you need to a group, then you could  Resolve all roles and groups to users. That would keep you from having to query the users one at a time, and if you look at the 200 aus training, it will show you how to make all approval and 1 reject. The first lab covers all of that. 

per the lab;

K2 will create a slot for each user in each group in the destination rules (Slot option)  There are 2 destination sets for the activity: Finance (who will always receive all tasks) and HR (who will only receive the task if the process folio is equal to HR)  The activity will complete if 2 users select “Approve”, or will complete if 1 user selects “Reject”

I hope that helps. 

Hi

Its not feasible to create Group in Active directory. 

Is there any other workaround for my first issue?

Thanks and Regards 

Manoj

Hi Manoj_Accenture,

In reference to it not being fesiable to create an active directory group, you could perhaps create a K2 role, and then add users to that role.  Essentially it will function as a group.  You can then use the UMUser/UMGroup smartobjects to "Get role users".

Mike

@Manoj_Accenture, 

Are you using K2 for sharepoint 2010, K2 for Sharepoint 2013,  K2 Studio, K2 for Visual Studio, K2 Designer?

Hi Chad

I am using k2 studio with Sharepoint 2013.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Mike

I guess you can not add users into role from variables . Users can be added in k2 Role only from K2 workspace, 

Thanks and Regards

Manoj
