Hi


I am new to k2 black pearl, i am trying a tutorial which talks about creating sharepoint integration workflow.


Below are the steps i did 


1.created a workflow in visual studio using k2 workflow project


2. Build and deployed successfully.


3. Provided rights(admin) for the user mentioned in the workflow in K2 workspace, process rights.


4.when i tried to upload the document in the sharepoint no, task is getting created. when i tried to attach the workflow by myself using document library- workflow settings - add a workflow and select the workflow created using k2 it is giving the following error


There has been a problem retrieving the K2 process data. Please ensure that the account has rights to the K2 BlackPearl Workflow Item and that you are connecting to the BlackPearl server 


can you please help me with a solution

I think you need to give permissions to the process you have deployed. Try this


a. Goto Workspace


b. Goto Manangement console ---> Workflows ----> Processes


c. Select your deployed process and add your user account and provide execute permissions to the user. Save information and you should be all set to start workflow.


Thanks


Shankar
