Nintex Automation K2

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?

Hi, We are developing new workflows with K2 Five including calls to sub workflows. We found that is not posible to set the priority of the sub workflow from the Workflow Designer. The Call Sub Workflow events only displays the folio field and the custom data fields configured in the destination workflow.  Is this a platform error? Is there a way to set the priority to a subworkflow? Thanks!
