Hello K2 Community,Does anyone know of a good way to tag individual Workspaces for the purpose of tracking their invocations outside of K2?i.e.We have 2 apps each operating with their own WorkspaceApp 1 https://myenvironment.nerdstrom.com/Workspace/#?workspaceID=148383e-74*personal details removed*b0-9c8f-0c77090e1CCCApp 2 https://myenvironment.nerdstrom.com/Workspace/#?workspaceID=ef39a4f-7fdf-g0ee-9c*personal details removed*fbab54d5AAAQ1: Is the workspaceID unique to the user of the app?Q2: Would it be possible to customize the URL so that I could tag my Workspace as inApp 1https://myenvironment.nerdstrom.com/Workspace/#?workspaceID=148383e-74*personal details removed*b0-9c8f-0c77090e1CCC&tag0=orderingapp&tag1=testing&tag2=application&tag3=expiresDecemberhttps://myenvironment.nerdstrom.com/Workspace/#?workspaceID=148383e-74*personal details removed*b0-9c8f-0c77090e1CCC&tag0=complianceapp&tag1=prod&tag2=application&tag3=expiresJanuaryI intend to be abl

Hi, I am utilizing the Task List in a Custom Workspace, and have noticed that it always sorts with the most recent task on top. Our business operates in a "first in first out" model, which means they have to work from the bottom-up. Is there a way to change the sort on this control?

We have on-prem 4.7 environments, DEV, QA and PROD. As part of the upgrade to 5.2, we will clone each of these to new servers, run the 5.2 setup manager to upgrade them to 5.2 while preserving the 4.7 legacy components (e.g. Visual Studio). And then we will prioritize rebuilding the 4.7 workflow processes using new 5.2 designers so as to remove dependency on  4.7 components. But https://help.k2.com/kb002070 says that a KSPX package created in 4.7 cannot be deployed into a 5.2 (even upgraded) server. This presents a quandary. We were hoping to support day-to-day businesss (fixes & enhancements) and also keep the parallel 5.2 server up-to-date by deploying the 4.7 KSPX. How else can this be done? 

Hi,We are setting up new server with K2 5.0 & getting this error "Issue while accessing K2 5.0 server from SOE accounts, while they were accessible from AD accounts"Kindly let me know how to fix this error. Thanks.

We have 5 smart forms and a portal in k2 5. After upgrading one of the forms upon opening scrolls to the bottom of the form instead of the top. This is very annoying and confusing for the users. It's only the one form that does this. What might the issue be? How can you configure how the form presents itself upon opening.

Hi All, I have a app i've put together that takes a sharepoint list of items and queries the worklist smart object in the systems folder on k2. As the admin I can access this without issue but when I try to access it with a test account after giving access to the smartobject it still will not let that user query the object. I think I am missing an easy piece of the puzzle but i'm kinda stuck. Anyone know what permissions I need to set for a user to access that specific smartobject and not allow them access to the world at the same time? Thanks,Ben

We have a client that typically just copies the K2 dependancy files to the WCF server in their project deployments.Can they continue to use this practice or is the K2 five client tools install required on the WCF Server? 

I know that K2 supports an unattended install mode where you first run the setup manager using a switch that saves all responses in an XML file and then can use that to run the install/update in unattended mode. We would like to use this method in our cloud build & deployment infrastructure as code pipeline to build a repeatable, consistent environment. But how is the license key request handled? Each server would generate its own systemkey which I currently manually enter into the K2 licensing portal which sends a temporary license key in a few minutes and a permanent license key a few hours later. Can this be autuomated to eliminate these manual/interactive steps? Does K2 provide an API to retrieve these license keys? Any ideas appreciated. Thanks

We have a requirement from one of a user to have 100+ fields in a form, kindly let us know if we can have these many fields in a form without any issuesperformance. It would be great to know the list of all limitations in K2 five, will help us to inform end  user before we start any new K2 project at our end. Many ThanksSantosh Sethi

Hi, I have a SharePoint list which has a Person or Group field (Signature) which will be manually populated by a user submitting a request form. The Signature field will allow a user to identify who the form is being submitted for so they can submit on behalf of other users. I'd like to show a list of the requests in a list view and filter them to where the Signature field equals the logged on user.  I've tried various combinations of filters with no success so I've update the filter in my 'View executed inialize' rule as per the attached image to try all combinations of filters but I get no records returned. Any ideas? Just to note, the Signature field has been generated as a 'Text' field in the SmartObject automatically by K2. Thanks, Ben  

Hi, We need to create the custom list with addional columns in SharePoint 2013/16 using k2 five workflow designer. But we've option only to create list with 'Title' column and not with additional columns. 1.  Is there any option to add columns to newly created list using workflow?2.  Is there any feature/option to copy the List itself with all the columns? 

I'd like to fully understand how Item References work. How often does K2 go back to the data source to get the LOB data? If I create a Reference in a workflow (talking K2 Five here), then every time I want to use a property of that reference, does K2 go to the source for that one item? So if I use 5 values to construct and email, has it hit the source 5 times? Or .. does the reference get some point in time understanding of the data and hold it in memory? If so, when/how often does it go to get the source data? Thanks.

I have just upgraded to K2 5 , all my existing K2 4.7 workflows are working as specified . I have updated my client tools and can modify and maintain my existing workflows . These workflows have a number of integrations that will not work in the K2 cloud , so as part of our migration tasks we need to rework the workflows using the K2 5 designer. My Question :-Once I have rewritten the workflow using the K2 5 designer can I deploy the workflow to the K2 5 workflow server as the latest version of the K2 4.7 workflow I am replacing ,for example after migrationI have a workflow named  Workflow in a  catagory "Employment" :- "Employment" has two workflow "onboarding" & "Signoff"I develop two new workflows Employment "Onboarding" and  "Signoff" in K2 5 , when I deploy I want them to superceed the current 4.7 workflows , What I dont want is two workflows named "onboarding" and two named "Signoff"

Hi all, Appreciate if you can share your success story by upgrading your K2 from 4.7 to K2 5.x. After doing reading and researching for some while, i have no confident to propose to my management for the upgrade as cost incured. (Need to upgrade my K2 4.7 blackpearl windows server and Database server's windows & sql server version) And this year is the EOL of K2 4.7. Hopefully you can share your experience with me. Thank you.

HI,  We are trying to connect to the local oracle DB through K2 cloud.  K2 is asking to open to the IP address to access our local DB. As per standards we can't open IP for internet.  Is there any tool which can be setup at our end to make a secured connection to K2 cloud rather opening SQL port ? We just want to have a secure connection which will encrypt the data when K2 cloud application access our DB ?  Thanks, Surya*personal details removed*99

In K2 Management, i can not find SQL Server Service under Categoreis. See the attachment.

Hi Team, I have a simple data entry screen which is built using K2 Forms, let us say, it has 4 controls, (Name, Age, Gender & DOB).on click of button (Save button) in K2 form, can i create instance of class with above mentioned input values from user and call a WebAPI which takes this class object as argument. Is there a way to map, these fields to SmartObject (K2 SmartObject with 4 properties as above) and serialize the smartobject to invoke a WebAPI which is hosted on server. let us say, WebAPI signature looks like this; public HttpResponseMessage K2UIExample(User userInstance): I am able to invoke a Web API from smart object, with primitive values as parameters, but how to convert a smart object and request a Web Api, i am facing difficulties. Any pointers or suggestion will be of great help. Thanks,Nanda Kumar.K

Good Morning everyone, I need to create a workflow that deletes the workflow instance related to a specific SharePoint list item when it is deleted. Users are deleting list items and thus the smartforms are failing to load due to the list item being absent and the tasks are still pending. I can not seem to find instructions on this function but i'm sure it is possible. Anyone have some help with this?Thanks,Ben
