Hi Is there a SmartObject which truly returns all the Roles that a User is a member of? Scenario:I created a new Role and then added an Active Directory Group to it  (I am a member of that Group). Test:Under System > Management > Users folder I found the  UserRole SmartObject I then executed the built-in IsUserAMemberOfRole method However, after entering the RoleName and my UserName, it returned false. If I delete the Group and manually enter my user individually, it works fine. I suspect this method does not interrogate what Users are within the Groups in the role..? Question:Are there any other built-in SmartObjects that I should/could be using? I imagine K2 must be leveraging something behind the scenes for it's own security purposes?  Thanks,Conrad

Does anyone know how to create a popup over a picker label, so when the user's mouse is over the picker object a pop up with a customised message appears?

I've created a dll that connects to MySql database and, depending on a method called, either creates an insert or deletes a row. After that I created an Endpoints Assembly service instance based on that dll and a smart object for each method (two in total). I need and external system to access those methods through REST API. But I can't find the proper documentation for that. Can you point me in the right direction? 

Hello all,   I'm working on a tuition reimbursement form for our company and I'm stuck as to how to move forward with one of my views.     I'm using Azure SQL as the back-end for the forms.  After someone submits a request I want there to be a form that contains a list-view that lists all of their active requests and the status of that request.  This isn't a worklist per se as they will not have a task assigned to them, but just a list of their requests.   I'm having no problem getting the list to populate with tasks, I'm just curious how I would go about linking the items in the list view to a display form that would show the request in more detail, and where I'd also have a place to capture comments.   I was assuming I would add a button to the list view that they would click and I could use the sql service smart object "list" method and pull in the primary key from the list view.  Unfortunately I'm stuck as how to do this.  I've also been unable to get the button to show up in the l

Has anyone got any tips/example on how to create an editable list view against data from a REST service?I want to make sure that the following is technically feasible:1. Retrieve a Serialized array from REST Service, and Deserialize it into a List (through a SmartObject)2. Create a List View based on SmartObject3. Edit/Add/Delete buttons on List4. Save button will Reserialize items and send data back (through method on REST Service SmartObject)Is this the right approach or even possible? I think I know how to do step 1 - it's the linking onto a View I'm more concerned about.I presume the list view can be generated automatically from the service smartobject? I don't know how data can be serialized and posted back?Any guidance at all much appreciated!

I have a smart object that returns a list of users. I want to send an email to all these users, but if I drag the email property of the smart object into the "to" field of an email event in the workflow designer, I get the error (once it s deployed) thatThe emailaddress can't be resolved. It concatenates all email adresses without separators. Resulting in for example abc@*personal details removed*Has anyone got an idea on how to set multiple recipients based on a list method result of a smart object?

Dear Expert First of all I'm very brand new to K2. K2 Five server has newly setup. Firstly K2 admin account and service account have been set in different ID. There'd be something that updated service account to something else. Now I'd like to change service account in Setup Manager but the field is blocked to update. Please advise me on this.  BR, Peerasit

Post K2 v4.7 to v5.2 the whole K2 user experience is painfully slow........ Checking in a form results in the form hanging for *personal details removed* seconds before the action take place, in the meantime you question whether you clicked it in the first place. Loading Designer, Management or Workspace takes on average *personal details removed* seconds to load up in a web browser. Anyone else sharing the same slowness in K2 Five in all aspects of use?

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
