Hello

 

I used a K2 asynchronous server event for stopping my process and waiting for an external application to proceed the task.

 

Then i developed a web service to programmatically finish the server event (http://help.k2.com/kb000272). My custom web service

 

is consumed by the external application. The process is working perfectly.

 

Now my customer want to be autonomous. 

 

I know that for finishing a server event, the external application can use K2 web services.

 

But for configuring asynchronous event, is there another option ( or an other event ) that can stop the process and wait for an external event (without using visual studio or server code event) ?

 

Thanks

 

Best regards

Anouar

 

 

 

 

Hi Anouar,

 

You can always create a client event and assign the destination to an user account that the web service app pool runs under and use the K2 API to complete the task once the external system has done its processing.  You just need access to the task serial number that can be stored in a data field. 

 

Use a different platform so that you don't mix user and server tasks.  The default one is ASP.

 

Thanks

Arno
