K2 blackpearl

I have created a new workflow and published it.  I have also created a new instance of it through k2 management just to make sure it's working.  I would like to start the workflow through the api but I'm having difficulties.  FIrst off I tried to get the id of the workflow by calling the "Get Workflows" through the swagger.  This returned a list of workflows on the server, but the one I was looking for was not among them.  I then figured out based off the ones that were returned that the id is the last section of the url when viewing a workflow in the K2 Management studio.  From that I was able to get the id of the workflow in question. When I try to execute either the "Get Workflow" or "Start Workflow" passing in the id of the workflow I wasnt I get an error saying..."Message": "The identified workflow was not found." Is there something special I need to do in order to get my workflow to interact with the api?

When using the connection string editor, is it possible to have more than one WebServicesConnection and WebServicesDestination defined on a single K2 Server instance?  We wanted to route From Address mail from multiple sources on our K2 instance depending on the workflow, when I added a second pair with a different email address to use on some of our workflows, I could no longer restart the K2 blackpearl service.  Is there a hard limit on this where we can only define a single email address to use in the From Address field? Also, if I just attempt to hard code the alternative email address into the workflow, I get an error on that indicating that the exchange server "send on behalf of permissions" are not set.  The email address that is presently working does not have any such permissions set on it as was confirmed by our exchange server administrator.

Hi, We are using K2 Blackpearl 4.6.11. I am looking for the DocuSign integration plugin but somehow the link points me to the K2 community's home page. Does anyone have the correct link for the DocuSign plugin? Thanks and Regards,Debasish

I'm building a registration form with some checks while the form initializes, so I had a semi elaborate bunch of "if conditions" "else", but everything was executing as expected, except the disable the form. So I disabled the whole content of the rule and just threw in a "Disable the form" when the form is initializing, and not even that works.Please refer to the Rule.png for the rule composition, and refer to the Form_rendered.png for the form after opening.The form should disable itself right away, but it does not, it stays enabled. Could anyone give me an idea of why it's not disabling? Thank you

I have an IPC event that spawns many child workflows to a list of people using the destination slot data.  If the spawned tasks are not completed in 3 days, I use an escalation rule to GoTo an activity (within child workflow) that ends the child and routes the Workflow back to the Parent.I need the parent to wait till all child workflows are completed or the escalation rule kicks in and they all come back.I've read many things on using All Slots Results = complete, declined, etc, but I'm faced with a wizard for the succeeding rules and I can't figure out what to put in it. Questions:1. The child workflows that are escalated to close them - what is the slot status?2. How do I configure the wizard below in the succeeding rule to wait for all to be done? The second screen shot below is what I have set up now and it ends the workflow because I assume it doesn't meet the criteria. 

I want to change from using EWS to STMP for emailing of tasks and workflows.  Can I just eddit the K2HostServer.exe.config file in the Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlHost ServerBin folder or can I rerun the setup manager again. I have been trying to change the from address for workflows but it won't let me.  I have change thefrom address in the environment library, string tables, ConnectionStringEditor but the from address still does not change. Will SMTP allow me to send using a different from address?

I have a requirement for a begin date to be the next days date. I entered an expression on the field to set it to tomorrow.  It does display, and allow someone to change the date. Here is my problem, when I reuse that view with the date field, it displays tomorrows date; not what was entered in the smartbox object. Is there a setting or work around to display this smartbox object correctly?

HI, I am sorry for this question as I am new to K2.I am building a form which has two views i.e. Students, Courses In Students View, I have a Radio Button List control called "Register course?" with Yes and No options (Default selection is No)In Courses View, I can build a list of courses with details in each row. I also have toolbar buttons Add, Edit, Delete in this view. Solution 1: Couses view is hidden by default. If user clicks Yes to "Register course" Radio Button List, then I would like to display a blank Courses view, otherwise keep it hidden.Solution 2: Courses view is blank and disabled (readonly) by default. If user clicks Yes to "Register course" Radio Button List, then I would like to enable the Courses view and allow to add list items. Solution 1 above is preferable. but if solution 1 is not possible then Solution 2 is ok. Thank you in advance Kind regards

Hi, Is there any technique on a List view to mark items as done? For example, i have a Summary List View, when user double-clicks a record (row), it opens a form in a seperate window and they do whats needed in that form and close it. Then they go back to the Summary List View and do the same with the next. Is there a way of highlighting/change colour of completed rows in the Summary List View or put a Check box next to each record so the User knows which ones have been actioned? The List is Not editable, just used to double-click to open a record and mark as done. Thanks

Hi All Wonder if there any code gurus who could help on this request (or tell me if it's possible) I'm using the script at the bottom of this post to automatiaclly select the first row of a list view (which is contained on a form).  This is so I can run the 'on click' event automatically without the user having to do anything. However I'm now after some code to automatically deselect the first row (so a reverse) Can anyone help?Paul ================================================<script>$('div[name="PanelTitle"]').find($('td.first'))[0].click();</script>================================================

In my quest to give the best user experience, a thought occured to me regarding Approvals... At the moment, I use offline approval for forms which require authorisation.The Authorisers get an email, which they reply with the word approve or decline for example. While this works great and does the job, I was wondering if there was any way of replacing that Approve / Decline with Buttons inside the email, is this even possible? I know you can use an alternate way of approving requests via a Link to the workitem, then approve it, but that to me is more time consuming and a 2-step process. In an ideal world, I'v want buttons in a email which the user clicks and that acts as a reply to the email and send the word "Approved" to pass back to K2 andcloses the email as well..... I know you can have voting buttons in Outlook, but was wondering if that could be done within the body of the email.....Can you use HTML/Javascript to create buttons within the email message? Is this possible, or pie in

Hi there.   Situation - We're goin to do a read method to populate an item view with various values from a database.   The end user will be able to edit/update these values in the item view by typing over the old value with the new value.   We'd like any values that the end user overtypes to be in a different font color so that before the end user hits "Save" he'll be able to easily identify all the changes he made.  Any way to do that?  I have been experimenting with conditional formatting, and nothing seems to be working. Rob

Hi I am trying to find a way to TRIM leading zeros from a number using an Expression in Smartforms, e.g. 00012536 to become 12536 but having no luck - has anyone achieved this?  Thanks in advanceDan

I understand that on K2 5 smartforms when you pull a SP Column onto a view that was attached to a meta data termset in SP, then this won't be tranposed into Smartforms automatically and I have to configure it against a drop down column on the form: I have done this the best I can see how (see screen shot) by using a dropdown list and adding my SP column name at the top and then have used the default settings that the smart object returned. However when running the form the column just has the 'circular' whirring icon (as though its trying to do something) but doesn't return any values, I can't see any other settings to fill in on the Smart Obect config screen, does anyone know where i cam going wrong? We use managed meta data columns extensively so need to crack this one off by heart ;-) I've scanned the turotrials and you tube but can't see any examples of using meta data smart objects Thanks!     

We are using K2 for SharePoint.  I have created smartobjects, views, forms, and workflowThe first step of my workflow assigns a task to the user.The outcomes are approve, reject, reassign. 1.  I want each of the outcomes to be a button.2.  I want to add a comment field to the task - that is required when they click the Reject button. And while I'm on the subject of tasks.  How can I make it so that if the user decides to click the link to his task (in the email) after he completes the task, it doesn't pop up an ugly message about access to the task. Is there some documentation that dives deeper into tasks somewhere that I haven't found? Thanks!
