Hi,I am trying to format the Date and Time a comment was made by using the Expression.An exemple of the result shows up as "1/23/2019 12:18" on the subsequent K2 forms but display normally as "1/23/2019 12:18" on the SharePoint list. I suspect the issue is with how K2/HTML return the formatting of the colon between the hour and minutes.My expression formula is: Concatenate ( Display Name, - , Format Date and Time ( Current Date and Time, M/d/yyyy H:m ) , Url Decode ( %0a ) , Notes Text Area, Url Decode ( %0a ) , Url Decode ( %0a ) , Notes)Am I doing anything wrong? Of course, I don't know much about the URL Decode and Encode.Any help will be greatly appreciated.Alex
If anyone is planning to upgrade from K2 4.6.11 to K2 Five, this is a summary of the approach we took and some of the issues we faced. https://ozippy.wordpress.com/2019/01/29/upgrading-k2-4-6-11-to-k2-5-2/
Just started on upgrading our Dev environment from v4.7 to K2 5.2 Upgrade itself has completed, however K2 Core - Installation Health Failed.Log below, any ideas? Installation Health-------------------Analysis Result: Failed.The following errors were logged as part of the install:Failed: System.ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added.at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentException(ExceptionResource resource)at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Insert(TKey key, TValue value, Boolean add)at SourceCode.Sync.Storage.Sql.SyncEngineContext.GetADUMProviderInstances(XElement roleInit)at SourceCode.Sync.Storage.Sql.SyncEngineContext.GetRoleInitProviderInstances(String roleInitValue, Boolean& adumInstancesExist)at SourceCode.Sync.Storage.Sql.SyncEngineContext.GetRoleInitProvider(IProviderType legacyProviderType, IProviderType adProviderType, String providerName, String roleInitValue)at SourceCode.Sync.Storage.Sql.SyncEngineContext.SeedExistingProviders()at Sour
In order to automate the package and deployment process I used SourceCode.Deployment.Management dll to create the deployment package using the following code: Session session = _packageDeploymentManager.CreateSession("K2Module" + DateTime.Now.ToString()); session.SetOption("NoAnalyze", true); PackageItemOptions options = PackageItemOptions.Create(); options.ValidatePackage = Validate; var pathNamespace = "/root/"; var rootNamespace = "urn:SourceCode/Categories"; string ns; string category; var categories = Category.Split(''); if (categories.Length > 1) { var parentCats = string.Join("/", categories.Take(categories.Length - 1)); pathNamespace += parentCats + "/"; } category = categories.Last(); ns = rootNamespace + "?" + Uri.EscapeDataString(category) + "
When user logon to Workspace, the user can see all forms from My Forms, is it a way to display only the form when the user has workflow right ?
Team, I have been working in K2 for SharePoint (2016). In SharePoint 2010, I have a nintex workflow. The workflow (reusable workflow ) gets triggered when an item is submitted for a particular content type. The same content type is used in multiple lists. So I need to create the same (reusable ) workflow in K2. But in start conditions, I cannot able to find the Content type is submitted condition. Could you please suggest us any solution to fix this issue asap. Thanks in advance,Gokulnath
I’m currently working for an organization that was presented and sold K2 Five as a simple drag and drop tool that could be used by a non-technical “citizen developer” to convert manual processes into automated workflows.Quickly management has discovered that more advanced, enterprise level, application development is not something K2 out-of-box (SmartStarters) or a citizen developer can produce.Management is now feeling like the product was misrepresented and wondering if moving forward with K2 is the best option. Anyone else ever run into this?
We have an Exchange account that when an email is flagged code automates this into a SharePoint List. We've setup a K2 workflow to trigger an email saying the task as been received. When manually adding an item the K2 workflow works but does not trigger when sent via the web services add. Is there something we're missing?
Hi, In K2 5.2, what is the exact procedure to complete remove a Smartstarter? I upgraded from v4.7 to v5.2 and want to remove the Smartsmarter to free up unwanted processes. I have the Expense Claim, New Idea Submission and System Access Request Apps. I want to remove them completely. The link post before on a similar issue is no longer working.A step-by-step to uninstall the smart starters would be appreciated.
As part of a workflow, I have a view that has rich text boxes in it. If someone selects my reject option, they are required to enter information in the box. When I try to type anything in the box in Chrome, nothing happens. The control behaves as if it's completely disabled. If it try to enter information in IE, it works just fine. If I change the control to a text area, then the control works fine in both IE and Chrome, except you can't press the Backspace key to delete text. The only way to delete text is by pressing the delete key.
In K2 5.2 Management, I go to Integration - Service Instances and want to check the settings of the PDF Converter, however the EDIT and DELETE buttons are greyed out why? I'm logged in as Admin, and the same settings can be edited fine on a K2 4.7 box via Workspace....
I have a very simple stored procedure. When I use a variable in the dynamic sql I get no properties in the ServiceInstance but without the variable it works perfectly. Executing the sql directly in SSMS works fine. So... this doesn't work (no properties created in the ServiceInstance):ALTER Procedure [dbo].[ToolNumberDetailListForProduct] @ToolNumbers nvarchar(1024)ASDECLARE @sql nvarchar(1000)SET @sql = 'SELECT * FROM FlattenedProductToolNumber AS ToolNumbers WHERE ToolNumbers.Number IN '+ @ToolNumbersEXEC sp_executesql @sqlGOThis DOES work (properties are generated in the ServiceInstance) and the ONLY thing I changed is replacing @ToolNumbers with '(123456)' : ALTER Procedure [dbo].[ToolNumberDetailListForProduct] @ToolNumbers nvarchar(1024)ASDECLARE @sql nvarchar(1000)SET @sql = 'SELECT * FROM FlattenedProductToolNumber AS ToolNumbers WHERE ToolNumbers.Number IN '+ '(123456)'EXEC sp_executesql @sqlGOÁny ideas? I'm tearing my hair out here. TIA
Hallo there, we just did ther K2Five SharePoint integration to a Sharepoint Server that was also used in our older K2 4.7 environment.After running the Registration Wizard we now have to choose from 2 Servers (old URL and new URL). This leads to a known issue with empty App Activation List, as described here: https://help.k2.com/support-services/kbt154423. Can anyone tell us if there is a way to get rid of the old URL? Is it as easy as deleting it from the hidden list? (i doubt that....). Would be great to have only one server registered, as the old environment is powered down and unreachable. Thanks in advance, Thorsten

I have scenario which has 2 check box controls. And when we check one check box, it should make another checkbox list control options checked. Is there any property K2 check box list control to make the options checked.
Hello, I want to voice that I am not happy with the option for migration in K2. When a new version of K2 comes out we are required to upgrade within a certain amount of time or we will no longer be supported by K2 Helpdesk. The upgrade options are not easy and require us to fix or rework our current processes. Currently we are looking at upgrading to K2 Five. We are on 4.6.11. If we upgrade in place to 4.7 we take the risk of our applications breaking which require us to spend a large amount of time "putting out fires". We cannot package and deploy from 4.6.11 to 4.7 because of the difference in the package and deploy tool. We cannot package and deploy from 4.7 to K2 Five because because the package and deploy tool is incompatible. If we upgrade from 4.7 to K2 Five we will not be able to edit our workflows and we will encounter errors in our applications. Our only real option is to do a fresh install of K2 Five on a new server then sacrafice pending workflows to rebuild these appli
I have a list view where I would like to filter a single date based off a range - to help during auditing season. Is this possible? Thanks!
When a list view is in read mode, the column containing check box(es) will show them as normal text labeled "undefined".I need to show them as check boxes, i.e. the same way they are shown when under edit mode.How can I do this?
