A new how-to article has been released that covers the process for highlighting a text box in red when a button is clicked and the field is empty in a K2 View. The article outlines the full configuration, starting with the initial setup of the view and continuing through the creation of an IsBlank expression, transferring the expression result through a rule, and applying conditional formatting based on the evaluated outcome.This approach enables validation to occur only after a user action, preventing unwanted highlighting on initial load and providing a cleaner and more purposeful interaction flow. The article is available here:Highlighting an Empty Text Box in a K2 View Using Expressions and Conditional Formatting | Community Ha

Starting in Nintex Automation K2 version 5.8.1, newly created forms will now default to the Dynamic theme. This change helps ensure a more modern, consistent styling experience right from the start—no extra configuration required. What’s changing?In previous versions, new forms defaulted to the legacy theme unless manually changed. With this update, the “Use Legacy Theme” setting is now unchecked by default. New forms will automatically use the Dynamic theme, aligning with a modern design standard and streamlined styling.This change only affects newly created forms. All existing forms, previously upgraded collateral, and SharePoint-generated forms will retain their original theme settings. Why this mattersThe Dynamic theme offers a more contemporary design and consistent color styling. With its default style profile, forms automatically apply a unified set of colors, such as main accents, page backgrounds, and content areas, e

Hi “I’m looking for 1‑to‑1 K2 SmartForms/Workflow ,  customer developer training. could u help on that. Regards 

Do you want to show master-detail information in a form and have it render automatically each time you change the master?  Repeating sections are your friend for this. The secret sauce is to set the default value of the repeating section to the data containing the detail line. “Default value?” I hear you ask.  “Surely that is only set when the form loads?” Well yes – every other control operates this way but we’ve tweaked repeating sections to re-render if the default value field changes.  This way you could use it to set up a repeating section with default values when the form loads but you can also re-render the repeating section if you change the default value. Read on for some examples of how to get this going. Example 1 – using a collection as a data sourceThe first example we’re going to use is by using a collection variable.  One thing you need to be aware of is if the collection variable

If you’ve seen any of my articles before, you may have seen that I speak about the Connected Data feature where you can use Excel to push data into your Word/Powerpoint/PDF template. The possibility is endless when it comes to Connected Data so it may be difficult to figure out what you can do with it.One use case that I encountered was removing the country code from the phone number if the country code is filled out. If it is not, then we want the use the phone number as is. One option that admins could do is to create a Salesforce field to determine this but I have encountered many that do not want to create a new field either because of having too many already to maintain or not wanting to create a field with the only use of it is to be used for DocGen.In my specific example, I will have a field where the user may or may not
