Hello Community! I have created a K25 SmartObject designed to hold user contact information - K25ContactInfo.Requestor, now I want to reuse this design in other SmartObjects by association, and also in views - how can I best do that?  Also, if I add fields to the K25ContactInfo.Requestor SmartObject, will the other SmartObject's I associate it too also be updated?  How about the views? Thanks! Tom

Has anyone used the Exchange Online Service that's new in 5.1?  It really seems to have powerful features from what I can see: https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/userguide/5.1/Default.htm#ReferenceInfo/ExchangeSMO/ExchangeService.htm Question - for either the moderators or someone using it....Does the "Move" Email method have a return property of new email ID?  When you move an email on exchange, the email ID changes.  Lack of new email ID return property seemed to be an oversight in the old community broker, which I had to have someone correct for me.  If it's lacking in the new 5.1 service, it will make it almost useless (at least for me).   Does anyone know? Thanks, Rob

I reviewed most of the  forum threads around migrating from K2 4.7 to 5.1 on-premises but I am not clear on what the recommended replacement is for the K2 context we currently use in K2 for Visual Studio. In other words, our K2 4.7 environment uses ASP.NET interfaces along with K2 DLLs (e.g. SourceCode.*.dll) to build our deployment packages. Since K2 for Visual Studio is deprecated, we would need to move all the custom code into REST API endpoints and integrate with the K2 engine.  But when I look at the Workflow REST API documentation, I see high level API endpoints around Task and Worklist management. Where can I find the REST API for the following K2 String Table (read) K2 Process Instance XML data (read & write) K2.ProcessInstance.Originator.Email (object) K2.ActivityInstanceDestination.Activity.Name K2.ActivityInstanceDestination.UserSample code in our current DLLs that uses this is below So how can we migrate our custom code from K2 for Visual Studio into the new designers i

I'm trying to configure k2 Five server to be accessible publically over internet. while installing K2, setup will default all urls for accessing k2 to https://PhysicalHostName/xxx. This is useful if you want to use k2 within your local network ONLY.Let us say I want to make it accessible over the internet, through https://k2.MyPublicDomain.com, so I prepare the following:I create the sub domain k2 under my public domain hosting and route it to the physical K2 server. I install ssl Certificate on IIS and modify the binding to use it. I allow all required traffic through firewall and security devices.Now, if I open https://k2.MyPublicDomain.com from any browser, it reach the internal k2 server (showing Secure SSL page), start the warming up of k2 page, and then it will try to authenticate the user by doing an unfortunate static redirection to https://PhysicalHostName/Identity/sts/...  instead of a relative one. This will definitly lead to inaccessible page, because your Physical host ser

 I made a post about my dissatisfaction with the migration process in K2 considering upgrades and the end of support. This post was deleted. So be aware that you will not see anything negative about K2 in this forum because it will get deleted. This simply adds to my dissatisfaction with this company. I am sure it was deleted because the kudo factor would have been through the roof. Thanks,Bryan Peters

Has anyone found a way to update the SharePoint Group Owner in K2 Five to another group?  This is obviously possible via the UI in SharePoint, but when I use the "Group" SmartObject under Management on my activated site collection, it tells me the "User" can't be found.  If I use a User email, it works fine but how do I update the SharePoint Group to point its Owner property to another SharePoint Group?   

Hi all,I wanted to raise the topic of Accessibility to K2 forms for users with disabilities. I recently had a very informative meeting with colleagues about how we present our webpages/forms to users with disabilities (visual, hearing etc). As part of this meeting, we tested some of our K2 forms to see how the following software interacts with K2:Windows 10 Narrator (built-in)DragonRead n Write GoldDolphin SuperNovaDragon Dictate. With the Windows Narrator and Read n Write, the software works by speaking out any highlighted text by the mouse.So first we tried with regular Microsoft Word documents and they dictated vey well.Next up was some of my K2 Forms...... So we highlighted some text on the form (The word "Hello"). Instead of dictating the word "Hello", the Windows 10 Narrator and other software both said "Table, Column 1, Read Only, Hello"...1) Why does Dictation and Special needs software read the actual structure of the table?Has anyone come across this before?Is there any Acces

Good Afternoon,We have recently obtained K2 Five and I was wondering if there is any inbuilt functionality for changing the style/images etc of the Workspace page or if there is an easy method to achieve this? I have had a bit of a look around but have not come across any solid information on this, so happy if someone has some documentation they can point me to. EDIT: Apologies, when I was searching through google I could not find many results however searching here in the community comes up with more.This link is an older question for blackpearl and indicates that workspace styling is not possible, is this still the case for K2 Five?Kind RegardsNathan

We recently upgraded to K2 5.1 FP8 and have an issue with incorrect icons being displayed with the Lithium theme. We don't have this issue with the Grey Void or Blue Void themes. Also, the problem only occurs with the RuntimeRuntime url and doesn't occur with the DesignerRuntime url. Exemple with the DesigneRuntime url (correct)  Any ideas?Thanks.

new to K2 Five workflows. Anyone suggest useful links-articles for K2 Five workflows [Task Assignment , Approvals] integrtated with SQL server.  

Our design of the purchase request workflow is to make a completed workflow non-editable.There is a requirement to update a PO number in the form after it was completed.  What is the best practice to do this?1. direct database record update with:UPDATE dbo.tablenameset FieldName = '999999'where ColumnFieldName = A11111;2. update the form to allow only the purchase order administrator to update the completed form3. update the workflow application to allow only the purchase order administrator to update the completed formI am new to K2.  Are there other possibilities?Thank you.

We recently upgraded to K2 5.1. We installed some of the pre-built Apps and created App using the App Wizard. Everything works well except when we need to select a user. For example, it is possible to define the list of Administrors for an App using the administration forms. When we try to add a new administrator, we key in the user name and the system goes into an infinite loop (we waited up to 20 minutes and never got a result). In case this is relevant, we use Windows AD. I checked the administration form and the picker used to select a user is based on the UMUser SmartObject and call the "Get Users" method. The selected Filter Properties are FQN and DisplayName.  I created a view from scratch with a picker and reproduced the issue. If I uncheck FQN in Filter Properties, it works fine. Bug?

new to K2 : I am going to create a login authentication screen in K2 Five.Kindly suggest any article/out of box solution to implement.   

We have an on premise K2 Five instance connected to SharePoint Online so we use both Windows and Azure login methods in our environment.  However, if a user is in SharePoint, I would have expected the default login to go to Azure instead of forcing the user to choose one method or another every day.  Has anyone found a way to default the login method from SharePoint but allow the choice from any other K2 site (Designer, Management, Workspace, etc)?  

So far I haven't seen any documentation on using the runtime API with K2 five outside of REST. The user guide only mentions REST and OData. The Developers Reference link on the K2 five documentation page is still to the old 4.7 documentation. Does the existing client and management .Net API still work with K2 five for things like custom worklists, etc?

It would be nice to see all places where smart object methods are used before running P&Dif the smo is bound to a form, you can see this from the designer, but many times there are one-off method calls used in rules.does anyone have a script built or easy way to see all places a method is used in a rule?this would help better determine impact of changes to a smartobject
