Are there other ways to export workflows other than downloading an .exe that then extracts the files? The reason I ask, is that we're unable to extract the files from the .exe (extracting the files generates a CloudStrike warning and stops the extract). So we're looking for another way to extract the files. Ideally, I'd like to script the export with PowerShell if possible, but using the UI is fine if that's the only option. Thanks

Hi, I'm using Get List Item Reference component to retrieve all data from SharePoint list and created a reference at output mappings.  But since SharePoint list has duplicate entries, we've duplicate values in the created reference.  We need to remove duplicate entries/values from the reference or we need unique values from the reference in the workflow itself. Is there any OOTB feature or workarounds available? 

Im attempting to create a process that after filling in a smart form from an initial client event, will create a series of client events with essentially the same data only with different due dates for completion. It will use recurring reference data and have some fields necessary for completion of that particular task.  So essentially a loop that once a person starts the process via smart form, it creates say 5 tasks all due at intervals in the future. The date calculations are easy I just cant get the process to behave correctly. Any ideas? Thanks Dave

Hi,I'm working on a project where the workflow needs to assign task to any user in a particular group. What are the differnt ways in which this can be done.  

Hi All, We are in the process of changing our SmartObjects and Workflows to be 5.X compliant.  We currently use SharePont SmartObjects under the SharePoint Services V2 Service Object Intance.  From what I understand, this service object instance is being depreicated in version 5.x...  We are dealing with that...  I also understand that SharePoint Integration and SharePoint Events are changing.  Currently, we use a lot of the SharePoint Events in our workflows.  I also understand, that these are going away, but functionality will be avialable with SmartObject calls.   Will we have to change our WorkFlows when we upgrade to K2 5.x ?? Thanks in advance,Dean

I know that K2 4.7 can use SSRS to export report,  we plan to propose K2 Five + SSRS but I found that SSRS not finalized yet in K2 Five from https://help.k2.com/k2compatibilitysupportmatrix#SQLServer.  Can I develop in K2 4.7 with SSRS and package and deploy the whole solution to K2 Five? Or who can tell me another method？ Thanks very much.

Hello,  I am trying to create a reference to a smart object in a smart form. Currently i only have one entry in the smart object, so the ID reference is just 1. I am wanting the smart object to be updated regularly by others and then displaying this information into the smart form, so they can see the information before submitting a request. My main issue is that i can not figure out how to make the ID reference to be the most recent update to the smart object (e.g. if i had updated the smart object 3 times the refernece would be 3).  Is there any way for me to be able to do this? Would greatly appreciate any assistance.  Thanks!

I have created a K2 application from a SharePoint Online list.  The application includes smart objects, views. forms, and workflows.  I have configured the workflow to be triggered when an item is added, changed, or deleted.  From within the workflow, is there a way to know which event triggered it?  I would like to use this information to build an email message to the user to indicate if a new item was added or changed, or deleted.

Hello, I am using AAD user smart object with get manager method and i am giving email address as an input in the account property.

Hi, the message is displayed, but the navigate to URL rule does not workWhy? 

Even though Microsoft's Mainstream Support End date is 10/9/2018, many enterprises have extended support policy till 10/10/2023. K2 releases will drop support for Microsoft products that are no longer available for standard support by Microsoft.Was there an incompatibilty that 5.3 had to drop support for Windows 2012 R2?We only upgrade to this a few years ago because it has been out for a while with enough fix packs to guarantee stability. No good reason why 5.3 wouldn't work on 2012 R2.   It's an incremental patch not a 6.0 major product release.

Hello, I have two smartobject actions in my workflow 1. Stop inherting permissions on document by ID method2.  Delete unique permissions from document by ID  method  Step 1 works fine and breaks inhertiance bewteen the library and the document but step 2 does not delete the unique permissions left after step 1, I am assuming step 2 should ideally delete all the permissions on the document because after inhertiance is brokern all permissions are unique. Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks

Greetings! For some time now, I have been trying to find a way to list SmartObject items in a workflow email. I've found an easy way to call Get List and iterate through the return in an email step using the Join function and some HTML! The Join function in the context browser allows you to concatenate a Get List result with a seperator. If you include the <br /> HTML tag as your seperator, each list item will print on a new line in the email! I was happy to discover this and plan to use it in several places across our K2 Applications. Hopefully this is helpful to someone else out there! Example configuration: ~ Andrew

Struggling here so need some help. Since it appears you can't add views into a table or have multiple views in the same cell - I need to come up with a functional layout for 'dashboards' for users & admin. I want a layout where you have----------- Header ----------M      ------  View with Buttons / Navigation ----|E             Hidden view - appears with button 1|N            |U             Hidden view - appears with button 2||||I've tried adding a table and adding views to a table -  not possibleI've tried using content labels to populate views / forms -  it's slowI've tried expressions but can't seem to get them to work.Is there a plan or different functionality to create a different layout for Forms?    Is it in the plan for K2 to adjust columns / layout structure of forms???  It would be AMAZING if you could set the form layout without having to do all this crazy coding.

Hi! We have this scenario where our client has user configurations that are rules composed of reference tables and list selection of each reference tables  for example   table 1Value1Value 2  table 2Value 3Value 4 table 3Value 5Value 6Table 4Value 7Value 8Value 9 One rule could be (Value 1 AND Value 3 AND Value 4) OR (Value 1 AND Value 7)And there could be N number of rules configured like that in the system for each user. At the moment in k2 we are only able to display 1 set of controls  or the values in the four tables without options to add or repeat more rules. So , we need to be able to have a form with dynamic inputs and be able to save all rules for that user configuration, we are in k2 five looking to migrate to k2 cloud, any approach taken needs to be compatible with the cloud. These are the options that we know we can take: create a custom control(we don't know how limited is going to be, but we do know that it is not going to be compatible with the cloud), incorporate a rule

Hi all! We have a system in our company with a very specific authorization method.The user is first authorized in ADFS, then he must call the REST authorization method with data from ADFS, get the key identifier. Then we call another REST method with this key identifier, we get the key itself. Only after that we can call the REST methods of the system by passing this key in the header and it does not matter under what account.For ease of connecting K2 to this system, we wrote our build. Registered as Endpoint Assembly with Impersonate authorization.When calling the method of this assembly, we get an authorization error, in which the account K2 appears, and not the current user. There is nothing written about it.https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/userguide/5.0/default.htm#ServiceBrokers/EndPoints/EndPoints_Assembly.htm

I'm trying to uprade my development workstation to K2 5.2 - this workstation only has K2 Studio, package and deploy, and the Visual Studio Designer components from 4.7. When attempting to run the 5.2 update, it is telling me that it doesn't support my version of SQL server. I don't even have SQL server installed on this machine, so where is it getting this information from? I have K2 5.2 successfully installed on servers with correct SQL server versions - how do I let the update tool know this?

From a workspace is it possible to give certain users the ability to reassign task associated with other users, in the same vein as the task list of the workflow server? I want to give management the ability to reassign a task when a user has gone home sick, instead of the task sitting in the user's inbox or someone going into the management suite and reassigning it from there.
