Hi, I have an editable list view with lots of fields (60 fields);some of the fields are data labels (with expressions) which i do not need to update; I cannot seem to remove them from Add/Edit row.The ‘Apply the changes made to the row on the editable list is taking too much time. Is there a way to optimise the performance. I tried using various execution types, but it is not helping me. Thanks,

Hi,K2 AD User smartobject shows all users however, while adding users to role the user search return no records.Similarly when redirecting worklist the user search list returns no records.

Hello, I'm trying to create a PDF file in the workflow by using the PDF converter tool and sending the URL of the form. I'm having some trouble with the conversion because if I set a low conversion delay the data that should be on the form isn't completely generated and if I set it above 60 the smartobject returns a "webkit timeout" error.Is there any way to fix this?

Surprisingly, this has never happened before but I need to restore a deleted item from a list.  It is a pure K2 form that writes back to the Database.  About a week ago, some user deleted an item that is needed for a report.  I can see the workflow that was triggered on its submission, but the item itself is just gone.  I pulled the raw data to verify, but it’s definitely been deleted.My question is how do i get it back?  If this was sharepoint, it would be waiting for me in the site recycle bin.  I’ve tried searching, but cannot find any mention of how to retrieve data in forums or guides.  Has anyone had to restore a single deleted item before?

Hi All, We have a process that was designed with a picker control which was using a smart object with a list method Database table. However, we have to change it to consume a webservice 'Paramaterized'. Unfortuantely the picker doesn't pass the search text to the smartobject.  We are trying to keep the picker to avoid change many rules in forums since that view is almost used in 7 processes.  

Hi, My requirement is to display year values in a dropdown as Current year,Next year and Previous year. Eg:2017, 2018, 2016 Issue: Without specifying the sorting order, the values get sorted in asec. Moreover there are only two options for sorting either Ascending or Descending. I want data to be displayed the way it is returned from DB. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi All Does anyone know of any clever trick to reduce or elimate the screen flicker when SmartObjects are being exectured on a SmartForm. I'm aware you can use 'When Server loads the view' event to have Smartobjects run prior to the form loading but in my instance I have lots that run after that. thanksPaul

I have a list view which, when an item is clicked, kicks off some other actions on the form.When the page first loads, the list view is populated, and I'd like to be able to automatically select/click on the first item in the list (without waiting for the user to do that). Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

Hello K2 Community,Does anyone have experience connecting Azure's Application Insight telemetry to bpearl 4.7?It turns out that the core platform utilizes two .Net framework versions: 2.0 and 4.0, yet Application Insights requires 4.x and up.So some areas of blackpearl may not be able to be covered by this app."Application pool 'K2 blackpearl' with .NET Framework version 'v2.0' is not supported. Only application pools running under .NET Framework 4.0 and above can be instrumented.Trying to exchange information about the setup/configuration and the overall management experience.Thanks!BJ

Hi, Does anyone have any smart ideas that would help us iterate through all the SmartObjects on our server and check each one for consistency?  We integrate Dynamics CRM with K2, and we recently went through a major CRM upgrade, which caused a lot of changes to the entities in the CRM DB. The CRM Service Broker has been refreshed. Now, whenever we try to edit a workflow event that uses the method of a SMO that depends on the CRM Service Broker, we get SMO inconsistency errors. We're fixing the errors one at a time and then again attempting to edit the workflow to find the next error, but I can't help but wonder if there's a better way to identify the inconsistencies that exist all at once. Alternatively, does anyone know of a way to disable the check that K2 is doing? I is checking the consistency of every SmartObject that usese the SmartBroker in question here,  when really I just need to deal with the one method used in the event. Thanks! Kyle

Is there a standard approach to this? I've noted you can change Internet Options locally to always require logon but I was trying to find a way to force anyone even already logged into the AD domain to have to re-enter their credentials when they try to access the Workspace. Is it just a matter of altering the web.config for the Workspace area in some way or altering the Authentication parts of the website. Theo

Hello, I need to get count of active and inactive users per app. We're on K2 4.7 Blackpearl.Is there a query which be run against K2 database on SQL Server?I have got Audit Report from Management > License, but that reports only users and last active date. I need app info too, if that's possible. Thanks!

I am running into "Unable to connect to k2.columbia.csc on port 5252. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it."I have checked the K2 Service on the K2 server and it is running, i have even restarted it several times but still nothing.  I looked in the host server logs and see a bunch of SQL deadlocks.   We are currently on 4.6.9, i know it is out of support but just looking to this thing up and running again.  Is the deadlocks the cause of the unable to connect message? Errors from the log. "407641441","20*personal details removed*:58:11","Error","General","1","GeneralErrorMessage","K2Sql.Log","1 Transaction (Process ID 71) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim.

Hi, Our customer asks how we can get audit-logging for all add/remove/modifies for users in K2, i.e. if you change the rights of a user to a given Process, etc. There is an AD logging system but that only shows when AD was accessed. Does anyone know how to get this detail? Is it in K2Five maybe? Thanks in advance.

Has anyone tried to setup two-factor authentication?

Hi All,I'm trying to update work items in Azure DevOps via K2 REST Service Broker, however I always receive 400 Bad Request. My question - does K2 4.7 support "application/json-patch+json" Content-Type? If yes, please provide HttpHeader object.Here is mine:{"$type":"SourceCode.SmartObjects.Services.Endpoints.Common.HttpHeader[], SourceCode.SmartObjects.Services.Endpoints.Common, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null","$values":[{"$type":"SourceCode.SmartObjects.Services.Endpoints.Common.HttpHeader, SourceCode.SmartObjects.Services.Endpoints.Common, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null","Name":"content-type","Value":"application/json-patch+json; charset=utf-8"}]}Thank you in advance for response.

Hi All,I have been working with K2 for a couple years now and I haven't been able to figure out a good way to get the Workflow Originator to have permsisions to redirect (or delegate) an approval task.  I feel like I might be missing something simple because I think this would be a common request.  I have a simple approval workflow.  The originator creates and submits a form, workflow starts and goes to an approval activity.  I loop on this activity until there are no more approvers then the workflow completes.  I would like the originator of the workflow be able to redirect the task to another user if an approver is not available.  (We don't want to rely on a K2 admin to redirect.) My approval activity has the actions of Approve, Decline and Rework.  If I create a "transfer" or redirect action on an activity it seems I would have to make the originator part of the destination set and then they would also get all of the approval emails that go out.   Is there another way to handle this

Hi I want to bulk change running workflow instances and jump to a specific activity by using the Workflow Management APIs GotoActivity method. But before just ending the workflow instance, I want to make sure that the currently loaded instance is at the expected Activity and that activity is in Status=Active. How/where do I get the currently active activity for the workflow instance and see its status is Active?When I examine the Activity class there is no Status property. I use something like this: WorkflowManagementServer wfmServer = new WorkflowManagementServer();wfmServer.CreateConnection();wfmServer.Connection.Open(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["k2db"].ToString());  Activities acts = wfmServer.GetProcInstActivities(12345);wfmServer.GotoActivity(procInstance, "Finish");  Best regards, Peter

Can you execute a go-to-activity from a SmartForm? Cannot find any out of the box smart objects for it. Thanks

I tried executing the below code to execute K2 workflow task using REST API. The is running without any errors with status code 200 but task is not getting updated. I tried the URL which is generated by the code in a separate browser window, strange it is working fine. But when run through custom asp.net mvc page it still runs without any issue but there is no output, i meant task is not getting updated. Need help for this strange issueURL generated by code : completeTaskURL"https://xxx.xyz.com/K2Services/REST.svc/Worklist/Items(4562_100)/Actions(Approved)/Execute?format=JSON"Code public async Task<JsonResult> ActionCR(int CRID, string SNID,string action){ChangeRequest changeRequest =await db.ChangeRequests.FindAsync(CRID);// post XML to process serviceSystem.Threading.Tasks.Task<HttpResponseMessage> response;System.Net.Http.HttpClientHandler handler = new HttpClientHandler();string K2ServerURL = @"https://xyz.ddd.com/K2Services/REST.svc";string worklistTasksEndpointURI = @

Hi All  I have a requirement where I need to check the K2 tasklist for all overdue tasks (every tasks has a Due Date) and send an email to a group of Users notifying the pending tasks. Note that these Users are not the Destination Users and the Notification is not a Reminder. These may be the managers of the tasks and need this information for tracking purpose. Can I implement this using K2 workflow, and if yes how ? How do I start a workflow everyday to check for the list ?  RegardsSweta 

Good afternoon I am using a DEV license on a server, and after 2 or 3 hours, the K2HostServer program stop automatically. Do you know how can i avoid this situation? Thank you  

We are making a REST callout to an external system. We want to default our header in the Service Instance setup and set it to our api key. However, everytime we attempt to run the workflow, we get an error that says "Unable to deserialize value." Here is what we are putting in our default header. How else do you format it? the documantation says its a name/value pair. {”Name”:”Authorization”,”Value”:”Bearer our_key"}
