Restrict Forms access to users on K2 Mobile App

Hello guys. By default, every Form in the Application forms is visible for all the users that login into the K2 Mobile app.I was wondering if there's a way to restrict a form(s) or to avoid certain users or group of people to view it/them. Is it possible? How can I do this? Thanks in advance.

The layout table is not valid at

Hi. When I edit a View and click a cell I get:"The layout table is not valid at: row 24, column 3. If you have not saved the view, discard your changes and try again. If you have saved the view, undo your checkout. Otherwise contact Support." When I look at the tables structure, it looks like the very last cell of the last row is missing. This is happening as soon as I open the view, so there are no changes I can undo, or pending checkouts I can revert back to. In the SQL server it appears that the html structure got trimmed at the last part. I hope there is a quick workaround that doesn't involve losing any changes.

K2 for SharePoint App on personal OneDrive sites -- General Info

  This only pertains to users on Appit 1.5 or K2 blackpearl 4.7 due to the changes of how we add the K2 for SharePoint app via the APP CATALOG.        So many have posed the question: why do I have K2 for SharePoint app on my personal OneDrive sites?     WHAT ARE PERSONAL ONEDRIVE SITES?  These are sites that look like this:   https://kitty-my.sharepoint.com/personal/hello_kitty_com  https://batman-my.sharepoint.com/personal/your_worst_nightmare_gov  https://bob-my.sharepoint.com/personal/sponge_bob_com     WHERE DOES THIS HAPPEN?  This will most likely happen for customers on Appit 1.5, or anyone on K2 blackpearl 4.7 due to how we deploy the K2 for SharePoint app to site collections via the APP CATALOG now. We do nearly everything from the APP CATALOG now.      ***Notes for APPIT users***  Previously, many on Appit would get the following email:     "Subject: The admin token may be expiring for bobcat-my.sharepoint.com - personal - hear_me_rawr_com soon.  Your admin OAuth token may be

User List from K2 Database?

Hi there, again. I want to keep tabs on how many active users we have in our K2 instance.   So, I went to the Management console and scrolled down the "Licenses" and then waited (for quite a while) for hte user window to populate...it only shows 15 users at a time, and each time you page to the next page, it takes about *personal details removed* seconds to load.  So, to get to the end of my list took quite a while....plus I can't export. Is there a way to see that same list of users somewhere off a table in the k2 database?  I'd like to be able to download it in order to track users and note when folks leave the organization. Thanks, ROb

Overall Outlook Integration and Features

Hi K2 Brothers,While dealing with my internal stakeholders we are currently discussing the possibility of integrating K2 workflows with Outlook.Does anyone in here have an overview about the features and functionalities within that area?I am not talking about Email Client events or similar - It could be the following: - Out of office function integrated with Outlook when enabling/disabling the OOO in K2- Being able to see your current Worklist directly from Outlook- Having a shown K2 section (lookup) where the app compares the specific email (based on email address or ProcessInstanceID for example) with active workflows to show the current step (activity name) - Workflows the current sender is connected with This is specific ideas and requests I receive from the customers. SalesForce has a similar solution in Outlook. Let me hear your commentsThanks

Disabling Views Makes it hard to read the content - How to Fix?

Hello All. I have a form that based on a rule it disables all the views (6 of them) so data cannot be changed. However, it dims it so low the text is completely unreadable in many cases. I assume there is no way to deal with this issue within the Designer tool itself and so I am going to have to rely on injecting some styling tags to address this issue or set every field to read only which seems very tedious, but would work. I am not a CSS expert at all and was wondering if you could help me deal with this issue. I did find the following link on the Community: http://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/Disabled-layout-Table-text-blends-into-the-background/ta-p/92069 In the resolution section it suggests how to change it for all but doesn't actually give you the tag. It just goes on to show you it for a specific control. I am using this resource: http://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/SmartForms-How-to-execute-JavaScript-via-rules/ta-p/90846 to add some simple alert javascript just to s

Validation on Manager Approval State

I am looking for a solution to put a validation on required fieldsI have a workflow in which if Manager approves the request no comments are required. If a request is rejected a comment field must be completed. I am able to validate when requestor is submitting a form (So initial form validation is not a problem). I want to validate as the workflow progress (I need help on this). For achieving this I am putting validation rule on when update button is clicked on approval state of the form because I want validation as the workflow progress (not the base state) please see the attachment.In current scenario, with this rule when manager selects 'No' and try to submit it without comments it shows validation message but it also shows form has been submitted tab and upadate the sharepoint list with data. So rules are executing this way:1. if current Workflow Activity is Manager Approval2. and on view, Control contains 'No'3. and the Form passes validation Configured4. then complete the follow

Extracting audit information from workflows

We are migrating to a new K2 server. I would like to be able to extract some information from the workflows on the old server to keep them for auditing purposes. For example we have an approval process for purchase requests and we want to be able to look up who approved a purchase request through the workflow. Currently, our business partners just view the workflow and dive into the approval action to see which participant approved and when. Can anyone point me at either a report or the tables that contain this information so that I can export into Excel or another repository so it can be accessed after the old server is decommissioned?

Setting Filter in SmartObjectWizard for For each loop

I have troubles with filtering out SmartObject data for For each loop. The SmartObject is SharePoint list type. Problem is that instance runs too long (about 2 hours each day), since I not able to filter per Datum field (today). Currently i have set filter by ID, status, and some other fileds. I noticed that filter doesn't work correctly when i have combination A and B and (C or D). I managed to work it correctly when I chnaged filter rule to A and B and C and D and E (just changed status to AND conditions withoud grouping OR). I will be very hapy if anybody has hint how to filter our per datum, or maybe some other way (prepairing/replicating filtered data in other SO for 4eachloop). Some details about configuration:SO has 3000 rowsFor each SO conf.: Input parameters empty, Filter (has parameters). Please find enclosed screens. Thank you for hints!

SmartForms controls not showing when unfocused

Hello everyone, When I load a list view into smartforms which comprises of 5 fixed rows with YES or NO data types going across the way (like a grid). It all works but I would like to change the controls to checkboxes. So I have done this in the view designer, however, when running the view I find that nothing is displayed unitl I click to edit the row and when I have finished editing it all disappears again. If I change the control to a datalabel for example, the information DOES display when I have finished editing the row.  Top image is chechBoxes, bottom is data labels. Is this by design, or should this maybe work?

Start workflow from SQL Server or using SSIS

I have a need to start a K2 workflow once a record gets inserted in a SQL Server table.   I can create a SQL trigger to launch a SQL server job or stored procedure once a record is created. My question, is there a way to only use SSIS or SQL Server to pass a parameter and start a workflow. I do not want to create a console application and need to do it all on the database server.

Designing Process Data Fields and custom Dashboard

Hi, I am looking for guidance, advice and experience on desiging process data fields. I am looking to store initially around 10 fields as the process data fields such as id, name, address, date of birth etc and some text data. Based on the whitepaper for k2 blackpearl the guidance is to used process data fields to store ids only and then use smart objects to populate the data fields instead of creating multiple process data fields. What is the practice based on the experience? Do you have any recommendations? What are the pros and cons for each approach? The other goal is to create a custom dashboard which would display a list of work items. Some columns on the dashboard will be process data created by K2 such as datetime created and others are from provided process data fields.We have a solution to display data from the process data fields using K2 API but if some of the columns have to come from a smart object can we then somehow combine the two? The dashboard will also need function
