Hi all, Is it possible to include LOGOs, pictures in Emails sent from K2? At the moment I use a combination of Smartforms Email EVENTS via the form, and all EMail via Workflows. I would like to make the emails a bit more professional/corporate looking. I can format the Smartforms?workflow emails using HTML to a certain degree, but i want to include logos/header/footers in the email body. Is this possible? And if it is, would this interfere with Approval requests, whereby the Authorisers replies with approve/decline (off line approval via email) Thanks, interested to know if this is possible? 

I need to get the list of Views/Forms which are using a particular control (Say AutoComplete control) in server. How can we do that?

Hi , We have 7-8 K2 workflows running on load balanced k2 servers. It was running fine but now we started getting the below error with several workflow faiures. Error","General","28083","ExtenderExecuteError","ProcessInstance.HandleException","28083 ServerEvent: Message: The file exist and then the Win.IO stacktrace login Workflow item remvData: Status: Error at the C:/users/userid/temp/extendedprojects/WinCS - 9927736638292020202 at stsud.cs 

I need to make email sending in K2 dynamic as in the number of emails being sent. I will get the emails to sent from a stored procedure and then loop through it and send the emails via K2 workflow. Is there anyway to do the same as Mail Event but from server event activity? I do not wish to connect to SMTP myself, instead still utilising K2 Mail Event.

Hi, I have SmartForm for a SharePoint list for Onboarding new Vendors.  I also have another List for Vendors. When the Onboarding smartform is executed the user will either select an existing Vendor from the drop down list or click a button to add a new vendor in the vendor list. When the New Vendor button is clicked I need to have a SubForm for the New Vendor smart object display so the new vendor can be added. This part works, but I neet to be able to retrieve the vendor name so I can populate it in the Vendor drop down in the Request form this option doesnt seem to be available to return values and continue with the rule. I'm new at this so I'm hoping for some direction on how best to achieved this functionality. When an existing vendor is selected from the dropdown list the vendor information is retrieved and populated inthe request form fine... I' wondering if im going about the the wrong way, using the wrong logic and actions... Thanks in advance...

Hi We are using Managed Metadata Navigation on our on prem SP2013 farm and need to access the URL behind the selected item. We are developing a form which allows users to request changes to their sites. Users select their sites using a picker control which uses the approriate Term Store and Term Set IDs. Once approved these changes are carried out by SharePoint 'experts' in the business who are added to a sharepoint group on the appropriate site for a limited time by K2. Although the picker works well we can find no way of obtaining the navigation URL that sits behind the managed metadata. Thanks in advance for any advice :)

Hello K2 Community - We will be implementing K2 4.7 soon and I am working on pulling together our internal K2 governance. I would greatly appreciate any guidance you would be willing to provide. Maybe I am approaching this wrong but I cannot seem to find anything related to this topic online. How do we (K2 COE) start standardizing? How do we start identifying and cataloging common functionality? How to make available to the Citizen Developer a list of common K2 functionality?What are your thoughts? Have you defined a process for this? Thank you in advance for your time. Brian

Hi all, I have a requirement to delete the workflow instance of an item automatically.  But without deleting that item need to delete the instance of the same.  Thanks in advance.  

Hi, A k2 smartform which contains five attachments saves the attachment data (with mandatory validation) to the SQL table using SmartObject. When user submits the form, some columns value of the one record is "Null" in SQL table. For example., 2 attachments column contains data and other 3 columns contain"Null" value and saving the 5 attachments in one smart object call. When I tested the form again, even if attachment control is empty. the saved value in table is <file><name>scnull</name><content>scnull</content></file> but not "Null" value. I checked the form error log in SourceCode.Forms.Runtime.error under K2 blackpearlHost ServerBin folder. I found that error was thrown the almost exact time at record created in SQL. Also same error is found in Event Viewer as well.  It seems like the error was internally thrown during middle of the saving attachments and it doesn't relate to my form logic. How can I do further troubleshooting ways to find out t

 I am also looking to write a block of text at the top of a view.  I am finding the limit of the label to be too short for all of the text.  When I concatenate multiple labels, they do wrap with the wrap txt, but the breaks in text are not as intended. I would also like to have some text bolded or underlined, and in order to do that, I would have to create multiple labels as well; for the different style changes. I have also tried creating all the text in a document, and then saving it as a picture, but then when the screen would be resized, the picture would just stay the same, or get truncated.  There is no wrapping with a picture... Is there another way to display a paragraph of text?  I have seen the note on rich text, but not following; so would need more detailed description, or an example! Thanks!

Hi, We are trying to create a applications landing page for our organization. And one of the objective is to list all the applications in a 3x3 or 3x4 formation, having icons with embeded hyperlinks. The application list is dyanmic and will be stored in a database and accessed through a smartobject. We are also thinking of making each application security aware, so that the list of applications might be different for each users, depending on their granted permissions. As a novice, need to know how we can acheive this in a view? ThanksWaqas

Hi Guys, Our UX people want me to remove the border of a text box that's in readonly mode. I have created a new custom theme by copying lithium in the hive and adding thecorrect data to the database. I can see my theme and certainly make changes to it. however, this particular element will not style unless I make the cahnge gloabally (all states of the control) which is not desirable. SFC SourceCode-Forms-Controls-Web-TextBox readonly is the calss implement in the page source I cannot find anyhthing in the theme directory that deals with readony controls, there are entries for disabled controls but changing these makes no difference. Any help would be gratfully received  thanks.

Hi, I am very new to K2 blackpearl and here at K2 community, therefore I apologise if I am asking anything stupid. I have two questions to ask: Question 1) Is it possible to add an extra control (column) to a SmartObject List View?Scenerio 1: I have a fixed list of products saved in a database table which has only one column "ProductName". I have built a SmartObject to list these products. Now I want to build a view in which I want to build a custom list of products (like a basket) using a picker which will use that SmartObject. Each time I add a product from the picker, it adds two columns in the list i.e. "ProductName" and "Department" where "Department" is an extra control (dropdown list) which should be editable. Question 2) I would like to raise multiple instances of a K2 workflow on a form submission, Is it possible?Scenerio 2: When I submit the form in scenerio 1 above, the custom list of products (basket) in scenerio 1 will determine the number of instances to start of that par

I am trying to create a SmartObject as part of a workflow which will pull data from a SQL table such as employee #, name, etc. and show each individual employee specific information unique to them (by employee#). I see how to create a smart object from a table, but any pointers on how to have the SmartObject connect to this table then based on the employee ID it would reflect that employee's info? ThanksMark

Hi Does anyone know the validation pattern to set for a UK Post Code?  I have searched and tried a number of different patterns but I can't get any to work. Kind RegardsSana

I have created a user exit smartform, it is using a list in sharepoint to save the data.  I have some code that gets processed when a field is changed, this code checks a user object in AD for a value and returns true or false depending on the value it finds.  The code then is saving the value to a datafield like so: K2.ProcessInstance.DataFields["AD_Parameter"].Value = "100";i can see in the process overview that the datafield is getting this new value, however in the smartform in the start workflow action when i set  the output mappings to pass this value to a form parameter it does nothing.  the parameter remains empty. Am i doing this correctly?  I have even tried using a ticker control to slow down the processing of the form but that is making no difference. does anyone have some guidance? thank you,Danny

Hi,  I was using K2 Package and Deployment to deploy my workflows from DEV environment to QA and PROD. But I figured out when I am deploying workflows to diffrenet environment workflows are still using DEV as target environment. It causing a lot of issues because worflows is trying to read environmental fields from DEV profile instead of QA or PROD. I could not find how I can tell K2 Package and Deployment tool to use PROD profile instead of DEV.  Regards,  Oleg
