Hi, We try to use dynamic urls when using navigation rules in form buttons on K2 smartforms which works using the auto parameters (Root and Subsite), however this doesn't work when the SharePoint list is set to open in model window, which is often a genuine requirement. I have tested this on different lists and its consistant and explains now why some of our save and cancel buttons don't navigate to the correct url on click (because the root/subsite values do not get passed to the form parameters). Is this a known bug in K2 5, whould I raise a fault ticket, or this is expected behavoir that we just can't use if using model pop ups? Thanks, Julie

Hi, does anyone know if there is a way to copy rules or rule actions in SmartForms? I have a fairly complex rule which can be triggered by a number of events and was wondering if there is a ny shortcuts? Thanks

To run an executable from within a workflow k2 for visual studios should be used, as we will need to execute custom code from within the workflow which can easily be done from K2 for Visual Studio.    Firstly, on the workflow we will need to add a server event.          Right click on the server event and select View Code and then Event Item.          After event item was selected a new tab will open in Visual Studio.  We can then add code to start an external application with parameters as shown in the following example          This snipped of code will execute the “Executable.exe” on the local server as specified by the location @”c:TempExecutable.exe” with a parameter in this case being a value received from the “K2.ProcessInstance.folio”     note that after the executable filename and path the “,” comma character allows you to add an argument.     This project can then be deployed and the Application specified in the custom code will be executed on this event in the workflow.  For

Created an expression in an outcome. Saved it. Opened expression again to add one more condition. Looks fine so far. Added one one more condition. Saved it and clicked OK to complete outcome configuration. Opened outcome and the expression again. The condition that I added in step 3 is gone.This is happening randomly. Is this some kind of bug? Screenshots are attached.

Good afternoon, I have a SmartForm rule that checks to see if the current user is a member of the K2 Role created for the solution. When the end users attempt to use the solution, they receive a message stating they do not have administrator permissions. I am trying to use the User Role SmartObject (User Role -> IsUserMemberOfRole). You can access this SmartObject from the SmartObject Explorer by expanding the following items System->Management->Users->SmartObjects->User Role->Methods->IsUserMemberOfRole. From what I understand, this SmartObject uses the K2 Service Account to execute. How is it possible the user requires administrator permissions (set at the Server Rights) if the SmartObject is using the Service Account? I cannot use this SmartObject in my solution if the user requires administrator permissions. Are there any alternatives? This is for K2 4.7. Thanks,Justin

Hi there.  One more question. I don't see "out of the box" functionality on this, but is there a way to use back end code to change the default font for the Rich Text control to something besides Veranda 11?  My folks that are using it want it to default to something else. Rob 

I have a K2 package that I'm ready to deploy I have opened the package using the P&D app, on the destination server, logged in using the K2 Service Account, which also has local admin rights. The package analysis completed successfully. I have been through each item to select the appropriate actions and ensured that every single item has a green check mark The P&D app has the NEXT button disabled, and no matter what I do, it will not enable. I have tried setting the action for every item to "Create a new version ..." and re-analysing, but this does not resolve the issue.

If I click on Apps I get this error. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

How do I get an instance in the cloud?  We have installed K2 on a local server for a POC but we wanted to see how to use a Cloud instance.

This is more of a curiosity question as I'm not sure many people would encounter the need for this, but if someone has I'd love to hear of potential solutions.This KB https://help.k2.com/kb002089 discusses how to set AutoComplete Strict Validation to false, but it does it at the site level, which I think it's a little too overarching. I feel it should be available at the control level. Has anyone tried to allow non-existing values to be input in an AutoComplete control without having to disable it site-wide?Thanks

Hello all! I have spent the last two days trying to find a way to hide the content pane (pages/tabs) and the filter pane in embedded Power BI reports using just the URL. Turns out it can be done! Take the URL and add one or both of these commands to the end based on what you wish to hide. This way you can embed Power BI Reports into your K2 Forms using the Content Control and have a clean presentation. Hiding the Content Pane: &navContentPaneEnabled=false Hiding the Filter Pane: &filterPaneEnabled=false Exmaple URL With Content and Filter Pane Off: https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=<yourReportIDHere>&autoAuth=true&navContentPaneEnabled=false&filterPaneEnabled=false These commands can also be used in the HTML code for you embedded reports as well. See this Power BI Forum post: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/How-to-Hide-Power-BI-iFrame-Embedded-Report-Tabs/m-p/122322#M4212 Best,~ Andrew

My workflow has a "Delete Minor Versions" SMO call. Input parameter to SMO is file name. This was working fine till now. We have loaded additional 1000 documents this weekened. Number of documents in library went over the default number of items limit on default view. It seems "Delete Minor Versions" SMO uses default view in the backend so now SMO is failing due to large number of items. We have temporarily increased the limit on view in SP but was wondering is there another way to handle it in K2 rather than increasing item threshold at SP level. Thanks
