Activity Instance Destination SmartObject not showing K2 Roles assigned

K2 5.6 FP21.Created a stage and assigned K2 Role as recipient.Created workitem then redirected one to an individual user.K2 Admin, Task List of the workitem I see the K2 Role shown in the destination in addition to the individual.SmartObject Workflow Reports/Workflow General/Activity Instance Destination only shows the individual and not the K2 Role.If recipient is an AD group then it would show up in SmO.Is this a bug for K2 Five for K2 Role not showing up in SmO?Compared to an old process via VS2015, I do see K2 Roles show up in Activity Instance Destination SmO.

Run if - SharePoint list starts workflow, Nintex form does not

My workflow works so long as the SharePoint list conditions are met, see screenshot below. When I produce the same SharePoint List starting conditions from a Nintex Form, the workflow doesn’t start.I tried this, but it did not work:Nintex Workflow – Workflow Not Starting/Triggering when the Item Created by Another Workflow - SharePoint PalsI read this but the solutions weren’t clear. The digital 0 and 1 conditions so the flow doesn’t re-start is unecessary in my case:Start a Workflow from a Nintex Form | Community

Unable to send out workflow notification ExchangeOnline

Hi @allI have noticed since a few days that we can not send emails from our test system. Since when exactly it no longer works I can unfortunately not say, the system (version 5.6) is not used daily.I get the following message:"72999628", "2023-07-31 10:40:49", "Error", "MessageBus", "61012", "ConnectionError", "ExchangeWebServicesOrigin", "61012 Exception from message source username@domain.com: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The primary SMTP address must be specified when referencing a mailbox.The account has an MS license, has a mailbox and can access it.I have already checked the settings in "ConnectionStringEditor.exe" and compared them with the working systems. The settings are identical.However, when I run Setup.exe and want to reconfigure, I can only select the installation with the "Recover" option. No other option is active.Do you have a tip here where to look?Best regardsStefan

Integrate Automation On-Prem With Nintex eSign - Part 1Tutorial

TopicThis is part one of a two part series of articles where you will learn how to integrate a workflow with a Nintex eSign template, which is a document for capturing electronic signatures. In this article we will begin by quickly reviewing an eSign template document for context, then see how to wire it up through SmartObjects to expose the signature capturing process to a workflow. Make note, everything shown in this series of articles can be configured in both Nintex Automation On-Premises and Nintex K2 Cloud.Before we go too far, I am assuming you have some product understanding related to setting up a template to capture electronic signatures with eSign. If you have questions on that topic, you can refer to the article, Getting Started with Nintex AssureSign, for more information on how that works. If you're good to go, then let's begin with a simple business scenario to paint the picture. We're updating some of our product names. Because of that you may see products referred to w

K2/Exchange 365 Meeting Invite

We’re in the process of pointing our K2/Nintex Automation Exchange Instance from Exchange On Prem to Exchange 365.  Our emails are flowing as expected.  However, when I try to use the new ‘Appointment’ SmartObject in the Exchange Online folder, it doesn’t send a meeting request, it just puts a meeting on the calendar.  Does anyone know how to get the meeting request to send?

Make use of Web Icons in your SmartForms

Sometimes you want extra clickable icons in your SmartForms using Font Awesome or Google Fonts and some simple JavaScript can give you this capability very easily.As an example we will use Font Awesome to add clickable help information icons to a picker control and Checkbox List Control. The help text will be dynamically shown in a Show Message dialog based on the icon clicked.NOTE: You can achieve the same behaviour using Google Fonts but you cannot use Style Profiles and will need to inject the styles into a data label. e.g., <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons" rel="stylesheet">Clickable Font Awesome Help Information IconOn click of a help icon a Show Message Box will show the help text for the specific control: Message Box showing dynamic help textStepsCreate a Font Awesome account to get a kit. Reference the Kit that you have created in the external files in Style Profiles. Alternatively you can add the reference via a Data Label and script in

Workspace permissions

Hey folks,  we are currently planning our K2 Workspace- and App-Structure and thinking of the design, permissions, forms etc.Currently we are trying to setup workspaces and their links, but is it kinda a design failure that you cant limit permissions? We want users to be able to access a workspace, but not to see the links to forms they are not permitted to. Am I doing sth wrong or is it just not possible?Is there a alternative?

Custom Form and Workspace Examples

Hey folks,as we struggle creating a good user-flow for our employees in K2 Five / automation on prem, we are looking for some examples (screenshots) of solutions for that. For example a dashboard with permissions to smartforms (f. e. applications) the employees can use by their roles.Or other creative smartforms the community has created… or is there a public showcase I can’t find? :)
