I am trying to configure the ways of accessing K2 through arr reverse proxy. what I do is to create a site on iis, and then using url redirect module to modify the redirecting rules. Now I am experiencing the issue, when access the url, windows will pop up the username password page, after 3 times input, an 401.01 error page returned. I am pretty sure the username and password is correct, and I tried to use different credentials had the same issue. my k2 site is using windows authentication. have you come accross the issue before? and if any solution regarding this?

I am automating a process using k2 five workflow. For audit purpose, I need to log action result of a task. How do I achieve that as I can't find it on the context browser Thanks

A task created in workflow has a Priority functionality that determines the priority of the given task, however when a a task is displayed in the Worklist control the Priority column is not visible. To enable it please follow these steps:   Edit the view   Click on the Worklist control   In the properties menu, under settings, Click on Layout menu button   In the Layout configuration menu, choose the Priority column from the Available Columns panel and add it to the Selected Columns panel   Click ok   The column will be populated with a range of numbers from 1 - 3, 1 being low priority and 3 being high priority    

In a working workflow, I added a reference to an AD user and then deployed again. The reference did not capture what I needed. Then, I opened the workflow to review. Nothing wrong so I tried to re- deploy it again, but this time failed with the error: "One of the properties in Activity [activity] located in event [event] is pointing to an external reference that does not exists." I deleted the reference, re-deployed and success, but then again, I re-create the reference, deployed successfully but when reopening the workflow, the error message is back (figure is attached). Thank you!

Hello All, Many thanks for this wonderful group for helping me with answers to all my questions. I have created custom task form using the link below which is very helpful. https://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/Create-new-task-approval-form/m-p/102479#M34081 Please could you let me know how to capture the approver comments as well from each of the approvers? Regards, S

Hi, it is possible to use K2 Five to convert .docx or .ppt to PDF file when the file for example is stored in SharePoint 2013 (No Word Automation Service available)? ThanksRegards 

In K2 5.0 we are trying to deploy a workflow[Which is created using K2 for sharepoint designer  and workflow only having the send email component]. It throwing following error while deploy the workflows.  Error Description:Missing reference at SmartObjectfield.

I am relatively new to K2 and would like to know how to permission and filter user groups from viewing items in a list We have hubs like (Hub1, Hub2, Hub3, etc). Under these hubs we have multiple locations (like Loc1, Loc2, etc). There are users attached to each of these locations. The users who are attached to a specific location should be able to view all requests for that location, and nothing else. There could be one or many users in each location. Similarly, if a user is attached to a hub for example Hub1, he should be able to see requests available for all the locations in that hub. In addition there are admins who should be able to see everything irrespective of hubs or locations. We use SQL Server Smart Objects for this. I have attached a spreadsheet to explain this. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas in implementing this? All help will be highly appreciated. Cheers, S

Question:Are there known issues or licensing concerns with upgrading K2 for SharePoint from SharePoint 2013 (Active Directory-AD) to SharePoint 2016 (Active Directory Federation Services-ADFS)? Are the users treated the same or are they distinct and not linkable (as the same user)?  Answer:The answer is explained in 2 parts. Part 1:An AD user and an ADFS user, even though they might be considered "the same thing", will appear as 2 different users or entities from a K2 perspective, because they use 2 different labels. 1. An AD user will use the K2 security label. 2. And an ADFS user is going to use the ADFS label An AD user might look something like this in the "identity.identity table":K2:DenallixBob, andmight be something like ADFS:Bob for the ADFS equivalent. Because we are querying 2 different "user stores", and we authenticate using 2 different security labels, we will store 2 different entries in the "[Identity].[Identity]" table.Those 2 "entities" should have 2 different entries

Hello Everyone, I have a weird predicament (I have found a workaround, I am just hoping I can understand the issue better).  I have a Picker that pulls data from AD and takes  a User ID and places it into a different field. I had an issue of the User ID staying in the control, it would disappear quickly (not sure why). To fix that Issues I added an initialize method to the rule that changed the picker to execute the initialize method. This view also happens to have a checkbox list. If I enter data into the checkbox list first and then get a name from the picker the initialize method that occurs after the picker has been changed clears out the checkbox list. I have added screen shots of a reproduction of the issue:Screenshot 1: Picture of viewScreenshot 3: screenshot of after Picker filled  Thank you, Paul

Hello All, I am developing a workflow in K2 Five with an Smart Object from a table from SQL Server. When the task e-mail notification arrives, and I click the link, I am redirected to the default K2 form. I want to make a custom readonly form of the item with an ability to approve ort reject the task? Does anyone have a step by step tutorial of this? Many thanks, Regards, S

So. Pretty complicated project I have here.I need to read an Exchange mailbox and when new messages come in, I need to read the information in the body, extract the pertinent details and put then into a K2 SmartObject and start a workflow.I also need the workflow to be able to check the SmartObject to make sure it catches duplicates because I don't control the sytem that is sending the message and it has been made abundantly clear to me that the developer of the system that is sending the duplicates will not be fixing that problem.  So I need to catch the duplicates on my end.  I already have a script that will read the mailbox and parse the pertinent information into variables that I can pipe through an API.  So I was thinking I can use the SmartObject OData API to get the information into the SmartObject. The problem is ~ How do I start a workflow on that item in the table and how do I prevent duplicate entries in the table/workflows?

Hi, Does anyone have any success stories of using the SmartForms Tester in K2 Five? It looks like it could be a great and powerful tool but I am having difficulty with it. Issues:I cannot view any detail against any of the test cases in the Example Test Suite provided by K2 I cannot Save any tests that I create. I do not have the option to select a Test Suite (!) I cannot find any documentation for this tool for K2 Five I discovered the tool by following a blog for K2 4.7. You can access the Test Manager in the K2 Designer:Launch K2 Designer > Browse Bottom of Left-Hand Items panel > Click Show (All) Select the System checkbox Search and Locate the 'SmartForms Tester - Landing Page' Form Launch the Runtime URL for this form Any help much appreciated! Screenshot of accessing SmartForms tester below:

Just trying out the new K2 Five designer. How are the new advanced SmartObject works in the new K2 Five? Right now I am using K2 studio or Visual Studio to design advanced SmartObjects and one of the configuration step was "Add Service Method Link" where you can configure how are the methods being linked. I don't see this at all in the new designer nor in the new K2 guide. Am I missing anything here? Thanks
