Nintex Automation K2

Is there a registry setting, .config file setting, database setting, etc. that P&D looks at while deploying to a K2 Five environment (on-prem) to check for version numbers?  We have bits that we know 100% will work in a K2 Five environment, but we are unable to deploy because the package was built from a K2 4.7 farm.  We would like to temporarily suppress the error that is preventing P&D from deploying to the package in our K2 Five farm.

Is there a way in K2 Five to dynamically create multiple instances of a task step using the smartobject list and assign tasks to the different set of users/groups.  For example   Workflow Instance 1: smart object will return 3 records based on some criteria and it will create 3 tasks ( or clone) of the step and assign to users/group based on data from smart object WorkFlow Instance 2:  smart object will return 1 record based on some criteria and it will create 1 tasks ( or clone) of the step and  assign to users/group based on data from smart object Also, is this something we can accomplish using sub process.  ???????   

We are experiencing some stability problems with our K2 installation. For some reason the K2 host server service suddenly stops (crashes). There are no error or warning entries written to the event log when this happens. I have enabled the logging feature in the HostServerLogging.config. When the K2 Process stops an error is written to the log file (the specific error can be found at the bottom of this posting).  The process instance on which the K2 service stops is different every time. The process instance is in an error state after the restart of the service. When retrying the process instance manually it continues to work without a problem. We have been experiencing this problem for a few weeks now. Some days the problem occurs only one time a day, some times more than twenty times! We are using K2 Blackpearl version 0807 Update (4.8210.2.450)The error seems to occur in two different unrelated situations:High workload:When there is a high workload on one of our workflows the proble

Missing Reference at Smartobjectfield. Error: The best overloaded method match for string.ISNullorEmpty(string) has some invalid arguements.

Hello, Does anyone has issue to make simple comparison between values from a Reference and a External SmartObject:Here we return the entire collection from the List method.But in the same way the result is False even if whenwe output each element they are there:Lookup IDENTITY List of PO_NUMBER = PX0000 PZ0000 Contains true/false = False I read the documentation concerning Rule Designer but there is only comparison between a Reference and a static text field.I don't know if we are missing something .. this seems very wierd. Do any of you encountered similar issue ? Is there a trick to be able to compare two objects like that ? Thanks in advance,Best Regards,

Report to show which workflows are not starting because of high load on servers/remote event receiver.

Hello all, On a couple of workflows I've worked on using the K2Five designer, loop steps suddenly stop loading their configuration menu. All other steps configuration menus load fine. I see an error in the browser console. Recreating the step does not fix the problem. So far, the only way forward I have found is to completely recreate the workflow from scratch. I've tried opening in another browser and the same error is observed. TypeError: Cannot read property 'type' of nullat SmartWizardAssetControlController.addReferenceItem (<anonymous>:902:78)at SmartWizardAssetControlController.loadReferenceItems (<anonymous>:869:62)at SmartWizardAssetControlController [as constructor] (<anonymous>:102:46)at Object.invoke (<anonymous>:44:171)at S.instance (<anonymous>:94:35)at n (<anonymous>:69:42)at g (<anonymous>:61:496)at <anonymous>:61:119at Object.link (<anonymous>:287:224)at <anonymous>:17:3 "<div class="fadeMeIn ng-scope" data-

I have been working on a requirement where there is a workflow that needs be triggered if a Document Set is either created or updated.After reading lot many posts on the community, it seems that K2 doesnt recognize SharePoint Document Set and Folder creation as events to trigger workflows. I need assistance on this case, if it so be that I cannot wave off this requirement and need to make such a workflow in K2 five can it be done?Please suggest a suitable solution/Workaround. Thanks in advance!!

Hi, We just connected Sharepoint online with K2 Five correctly and everything seems running fine. Our customer is waiting for the start of their Document Management System project so they don't wont to give access to their users to Sharepoint Online at this moment.  How we can use connection to Sharepoint online to upload and download documents but always using the Service Account instead of asking every single user to login to Sharepoint Online to generate their own oAuth Token? Thanks!

I know that k2 five provide the build-in audit for workflow process but I want to know whether the k2 five has build-in audit function for audit user login and operation? Can you tell me how I can audit this data? Thanks very much.

Hi All, For K2 Five, we see we have user guide. Do we have any K2 Five courses/videos available? 

Hello all, I'm looking into solutions for monitoring and alerting for processes when they go into an error state in K2Five. My team wants to know immediately when certain critical processes fail. In 4.7 it was possible to implement some custom code to send an email / post to a restful service / etc when creating the workflow via visual studio. This is no longer an option in K2Five, as the visual studio component has been deprecated for new workflows. Does anyone have any thoughts on what potential options there are for this in K2Five? It seems that in the new workflow designer your only option is to toggle exception logging. Would appreciate if anyone can share knowledge about forthcoming functionality on this front. In my searching I've found the K2 Process Error Notification Service (K2 PENS) which is a windows service that monitors processes. The current version is somewhat old and unsure if it will work with K2Five, although I will be attempting some tests with it. On a side note,

Hello, We are trying to access SmartObjects through an external WebApp. Let's say i have a SmartObject against the Active Directory, and now want to get all users and display them on a site hosted somewhere other than the K2 Server. So I configured the K2HostServer.exe.config to enable REST Endpoints. For varifacation i check the endpoints URL to get a list of all the available endpoints.http://[server]:[port]/SmartObjectServices/endpoints/endpoints.xml As Expected I find an entry for the GetList Method on the AD SmartObject.If i now type in that URL in a browser at a clients machine, i do get a list of all users indeed. However, if i try to send an AJAX request from our WebApp i get a 401 Unautorized. How can i send authorization detail within the request?Also if i try to open that URL from the K2 server itself, (logged in as a K2 admin account) i get prompted to enter my login Info. When i then enter the clients detail (the one from which i previously successfully was able to open th

I always believe that good programmers wirte code, but Excellent programmers fix code. So I was wondering where are the smarter starters in k2 Five... I believe we all are eager to see the new options at our fingertips to see those dynamic controls moving forward, progress bars dinamically moving and displaying the progress of our Views... the fade in, fade out effects presneting our views when a Navigation or Subnavigations is clicked. Ability to take en-rich our Forms with MD5 Functions or some other crypto or 3D Barcorde functions, but we will lear much faster if we see the original Smarter Starters see all the bells & wisthles and move from there instead of trying to start from scratch based in our experience with BlackPearl. And yes... the smarter starters should not rely on SmartBox, they should have the ability to let us choose our prefered Data Soure like SQL or Sharepoint. Dino.

Using the new K2 Designer within SharePoint on K2 Five.  Does anyone know how to copy and paste an activity?

Hello everybody, Has anyone converted the dashboard to version 5 yet? 

I have a smart object that uses a SQL Server Service Instance. When I point the Service Object Method source to a sql table, I have available to me Read, Update, List, and Create. But when I set it to a view, I only get List. But I really would like the Read method from a view, why is the read method not available for views? How can I make it available? Presently I found a workaround using rules to call the List method with a filter and pick the top result. But that doesn't seem like a "right" way to do this. Any ideas?
