Hello together,
we want create a workflow where the users can create their own websites in SharePoint for Collaboration.
For this I tried the "Create Subsite"-Event in the K2-Studio.
But my problem is, that I don't see our Custom Template that we want to use.
Is there a trick how I can add this Custom Template to the list?
Or what have I put in the textfield for the template that the custom template will be taken?
Thank you for your support :)
Kind Regards
Alexander
Hi Alexander,
Unfortunately there is no way to specify custom template even if you pass the name of the template, you can only select the OOTB templates.
I remember this has been logged as a feature enhancement with K2.
Use the "PowerShell Service Object"

For your case the PowerShell script change a bit creating a Site Collection or even easier a Subsite directly in your Sharepoint environment assumming you have permissions to do it.
$dbx = New-SPCOntentdatabase -Name "Database_Name" -WebApplication "http://sharepointsite.com" -MaxSiteCount 1 -WarningSiteCount 0
$site = New-SPSite -URL "http://sharepointsite.com/user_subsite_1" -ContentDatabase $dbx -OwnerAlias "domainspadmin" -OwnerEmail "*personal details removed*" -Name "User Subsite 1" -Template "STS#0"
Hope this helps !!!

Hello guys,
thank you for your answers.
I will check the PowerShell-Script or maybe I have to find a different way to solve this.
Kind Regards
