Hi, Anyone able to advise on this. I'm thinking of a List view, where above the view, a user clicks a button to bring up a sub-view where they enter the details of an item. Then they click save and the details will be transfered back to the main form and added to the List. The user should be able to click that button several times to add more items via the sub-view. One of the fields which the user adds info to is lengthy, so when it is transferred back to the list view, because the list view shows each record per line, it will chop off the text of this one field because of its length. Is there a way of showing all the text, is a column view rather than a list view for each item that is added? Hope that makes sense.
Hello! We need to make a callout to a REST service to retrieve information. However, there is no descriptor. Idealy we would like to just provide the endpoint, the HTTP method (post/get etc) and any applicable headers and parameters. Do you absolutly need to have a descriptor?Â

FG_SMartbroker is showing just 1MB free on the K2 server. We can't save any changes to Smartforms at all. I've ran a K2 Archive and also had Backups done on the DB, but the FG_Smartbroker will not free up space. The K2 DB is showing 2.6GB free, so plenty of free space in the DB, but the Filegroup Smartbroker will not release space. Any ideas?Â

Hi,does anyone know how the duration of a workflow is calculated?The results of the control output seems like a bit strange to me ...?Is just the start and end date used for calculation?Are only certain activities considered? Andi
when we try to delete any workflow instance in Management Console, we are getting following error for any of the existing versions/workflows ERROR : The item name must be unique. 'ID' exists in the collection Please advice Â

Hi, I have a check box on my page and it displays fine. The text on the Checkbox is too long and cuts off if someone changes the page size or when i save it as a PDF. How do i make the text in the Checkbox CONTROL wrap to the next line? Thanks
I'm stumped on how to trigger or trap an event out of K2. I have a view with a Google Map, the user types in a Lat and Long and I have some custom Javascript which traps the change event and moves a marker on the map to the desired location. The user also has an Autocomplete on my location table. The autocomplete does a Transfer Data to set the same Lat and Long text boxes. The problem is updating a text box with a K2 rule (or any javascript update) doesn't trigger the change event. Is there a way to trigger a custom javascript event on a Transfer Data or similar rule? I tried listening to ajaxComplete but got nothing.
We are planning to upgrade to 4.7. During the upgrade we don't want users to create new instances or take actions on open instances. Is there a way, we can disable user access to K2 workflow, forms etc.?Thanks
We implemented a new process using K2 at the first of the year. This process once approved, inserts into an existing database where we track our projects. The next phase of this process was once the status changed in the existing database it then goes and changes the status of the record in the K2 database where the new process is and starts a new workflow for another process. This all works great except for records that were already in the old process that weren’t part of the original K2 process but of the old process. How can I get pre-existing records in the existing database to run in the new K2 process?
Hi K2 mates, I am getting Method not found error while doing REST API call to start workflow. Need Help. Sharing my ode below.

My subform doesn't show a X in the right top corner. Is this fixable? Chrome lithium:  Â
Hello, as I am unable to get K2 to work properly  (having tried to configure & repair many many times and did try what suggestions I found on this site) I'm thinking of completely uninstalling K2 and full reinstalling it. Repair did not solve the issues so this seems to be the only option. When I run Configuration analysis, it is all green and good, but I'm not even able to open the designer as I get config.sys errors and this is one of many many issues I ran into. I was able to create a package of the application I created so I assume once I reinstall K2 and if it happens to work, I'll be able to deploy the package and start where I left off? Is there any way to re-setup IIS settings alone as it looks like that is where the problems are (config.sys and IIS settings)? As I mentioned, repaid did not fix it.  ThanksMilan
I have set up a smartform which populates with users details, Name, telephone, and email when the form is initially opened. Can anybody advise if there is a way that these user details can be automatically saved when the form is first opened. At the the moment it is only saved when the user completes the rest of the form is completed and is saved. Many thanks Andrew
A smartform is used to capture multiple approvers in a SP list column let's call it "Approvers". When workflow is kicked off, destination users in a client activity should be set to users in Approvers column. This worked fine in SharePoint designer but not working in K2 Studio.... So I tried to create a data field in workflow in format domain-nameuserID1; domain-nameuserID2; domain-nameuserID3. I was able to create this variable but when I assigned this variable to destination user, worklist didn't get assigned. It looks like K2 studio doesn't like multiple users in one single line. I even hardcoded above strings in designer, it didn't work either. If I specify then in different lines, worklists get assigned. Since number of approvers are not fixed, assigning on separate lines is not an option. Please see attached.Any ideas how I can set multiple destination users in K2 studio?Thanks
I have a simple workflow (Built in the designer V4.7) which at the moment is either an Approval or Reject outcome. I want to add an other outcome to the workflow - Timed Out. Can any body advise what is the best way to do this.  Â
Hey Folks! We had a very disturbing issue on our Production server which killed our business systems for a fixed interval everyday. Business was unable to compile thier work during this time and every user was complaining. The Server CPU utilization would spike to 80% and more and remain constant the entire interval of almost an hour. We investigatied on what was causing all this by using performance monitors and SQL Profilers . And finally the culprit was a group policy which would clear the cache and browsing history on every users machine exactly at a ascheduled time, which would trigger enourmous number of request on the DB Servers for SharePoint and K2 applications. This in turn choked the servers CPU utilization. ThanksÂ
Hi, I have a list displaying attached files, but the filenames are tiny. So you would think that i could go into the column and change the BODY font of my choosing, but alas it is Greyed out? Why can't the font be changed on a File column? Thanks
Has anyone found a way to reuse styling on a label or data label or any other control for that matter? If I have 30 fields with 30 labels I need click the style button and adjust the formatting for each label/control individually. The only solution I've been able to come up with is to make the labels a literal and make the text something like <span class="labelClass">Label Name</span>. Any ideas are appreciated?Â
So i have a JS via datalabel: var offset = new Date().getTimezoneOffset(); Then i write it into my textbox:document.getElementById('000000*personal details removed*0000_59e39e2b-5feb-87d4-ab3e-525f96384c6f').innerHTML=offsetname; I can see the value successfully in the textbox. Then i created a rule like - if textbox is changed show me message. But i never see the message. It works only if i change textbox value manually. So the question is - how can i transfer a string variable generated on client-side into server-side?
Hi.   I am trying to deploy a workflow done in the web-based designer by someone else on my team. I can see it in K2 Designer, but it does not show up in Package/Deploy tool. I went ahead and re-deployed it as me, just to be on the safe side. Doesn't seem to help.  Thoughts? It's a simple workflow. I can re-create it, but would rather not if I can help it. RobÂ
