Nintex Automation K2

I'm working on a process right now that I have to create using K2 Studio and not K2 Designer. All of the directions I have found on the K2 site have been for using Designer and I was wondering if anyone has had any success in having a step within a workflow created in K2 Studio. This is for a workflow for ad/press materials that cycle to the Marketing Department and then to a series of approvers. The Marketing Department will never be accessing the request on a mobile device. But when it goes from Marketing to the Approvers, if I can get a snapshot of the form as a PDF to attach to the email, it will be best as the Approvers are often mobile and not in the office. I also had noticed in all of the directions I found that the creation of a PDF was being placed in a rule with a button click. Since I want this to be done within a workflow, is there a way to not have the PDF creation happen with a button click, but have it created as a server task?

We are developing sharepoint form using K2 smartform.

Hello all, i have the following scenario:Two Sharepoint lists used for storage:1. one stores classes with a class id and no of seats fields.2. and the other stores registrations by storing class id fom the first list and student id who is registering to this class. in the form, i shall display to the user all classes he can register to, which means: classes which he didnt register to, and classes which still have seats (based on the no of seats available from the first list and the number of registered students from the second list) i tried to add the classes list to the list view, then try to filter them, but i cannot use a smartobject (the registration smartobject) in the filter process. do you have an idea how this can be done? RegardsLuay

  Unbound rules are a great feature in K2. This allows you to create a rule and later call the rule when you need it. For instance I can create a single rule to update a Smartobject. If I have 5 or 6 states within the form I can simply call the update rule whenever it is needed. Here is where unbound rules are beneficial. Say you do not use unbound rules and you have to create a rule on each state to update when the form is actioned. If you make a change or add a column to the smartobject then you will have to modify each rule on each state to reflect that change. If you use an unbound rule and simply call the rule on each state when needed you will only have to modify one rule. If you use a naming convention on your unbound rules it makes it really easy to troubleshoot your forms and it looks very clean. We divide our unbound rules by Rules and Sub Rules. A sub rule might be a single action. A main rule might call multiple single actions. And example would be.. "Rule Update SmartObjec

Hi all,    I recently bumped into a nifty functionality that could easily be overlooked. So i just wanted to share it with you.      You can actually easily turn any text, into a hyperlink!      Here's the "How To":     Create a view with a Rich Text Box control. Add some text into it.           Next, highlight the text (can be 1 character, 1 word, multiple words, etc) you would like to link to URL.      Then, hold down CTRL + K (this is where the magic happens!)     This window will now pop up on your screen.          Here, you can change the TYPE (http:, https:, mailto:, ftp:, etc you name it!) and then insert the desired URL. Here, i'm just using Google because... well, it's google!           Then, you can see that we have successfully turned the highlighted text, (in my case, "This") into a hyperlink!           And for you coders out there, this is what it looks like in HTML. You can see that we essentially just wrapped the <a href> tag around the selected word, redirecting i

I have a Radio Group that contain elements New, Old and Existing. When clicking on either of these values I have the OnChange rule firing to clear out a fields associated to these values. That way the user can enter data associate to that element. For example:OnChange Event of RadioGroup1 New --> Clears Field1, Field2, Field3. Display Field1Old -->  Clear Field1, Field2, Field3. Display Field2Existing --> Clear Field1, Field2, Field3. Display Field3.  But on the initialization/loading of the form,  the Radio Group OnChange event is automatically fired when SmartObject set the value of the Radio Group and clears out the data I want to display on Field1-3. How do I code to prevent this?

If you recently had MS security updates installed on your machine you might have issues accessing K2 Management. See atached screenshot of what you might see.    ISSUE  Users are facing UI issues in application in IE11  browser.  Menu options are not displayed properly in the website. We notice that at the time of the issue, min-height becomes 0 pixel and hence menus aren’t displayed.   Issue was reported from installation of March update IE 11.0.40 After uninstalling the March patch, issue was not reproducible. Also, when document mode is changed to IE11/Edge, issue is not present. Issue doesn’t exist when you check it directly in IE10 as well. Issue could impact all the internet users whoever is using your management application.         NOTE: This will only occur when accessing the K2 Management Page from Sharepoint Context. Ie accessing from the K2 app in SP.     Cause:  MS introduced change  KB4012204        Fix:  The fix has been released for this already and is available to down

Just some guidance on where and when workflow history / Reporting should be avilable and from where you can access it.    Site Contents > K2 app > Reports – this is where you should go to see all of the workflows for all of the lists on a site. You can drill into the individual workflows and workflow instances via the UI.     List > Ribbon > K2 > Report – this is where you should go to see all of all workflows for a list. You can drill into the individual workflows and workflow instances via the UI.     List > Item > Context Menu > K2 Workflows – the design intention of this page is merely to allow you to Manually start a workflow for the currently selected SharePoint Item. The Workflow History section is a subset of the workflows accessible via Reports trimmed to only those instances for the currently selected Item. Furthermore, the instances are limited to only those workflows started via this page (Manual) or via a SharePoint event receiver. Workflows started

as it says in the title, my description fields allow more than 255 characters in the workflow configuration however, after deployment to the server, the form field gets trimmed and doesn't show all the content images attached for better view

HiOn my website I use K2 items as oppose to Joomla! articles. The display layout of the K2 items aren't what I'm looking for. At the moment, they are displayed as squares that are side by side. What I need is for the K2 items to be displayed in rows, similar to gumtree and Ebay ads. Does anyone know how to change/customize the display layout of the K2 items?Many thanks.

Hi Everyone. I have a list for attachments and any provided comments by the user.If I keep it as it is while using the Save toolbar button, it works just fine. However, I want to include saving the upload date as well as the uploader username along with other values that the user does not have to see (attachment: 3 smart objects b.png). So what I did was customizing/configuring the save method as below:Execute the Create method for all the items that have been Added (attachment :1 rule definition.png). Mapped my fields to what I require (i.e. the date and username). Also mapped the required attachment and comments from the context browser (attachment: 2 mapping destination.png). Everything gets saved except for the required attachment and comments (attachment: 3 smart objects a.png).Can someone please advise? 

I am getting the Message Critical error during elapsed event of K2 PENS Service Timer. Error Message: User K2:HUMADBpmOps01 even though the  HUMADBpmOps01 has Administrator rights.

I am facing an issue with calling a .net assembly hosted as an endpoint. The assembly has a method that accepts the parameters, calls an oracle web sevice, gets the response, populates a custom object and sends it back to the client. The method is static and returns a list. It works fine when I test it with a console application. I am able to get the response back. However, when I host it as an Endpoints Assembly, register a service instance and create a smart object, it fails. I feel that the username token that is required in the security header is not being passed in the outgoing request. I have added the endpoint in the machine.config file. Below is the code that is being used in the assembly refabcService.abcerviceClient client = new refabcService.abcServiceClient();using (new OperationContextScope(client.InnerChannel)){OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageHeaders.Add(new SecurityHeader("##UserNameToken##", "username", "password"));refabcService.abcRespType abcResponseType = cl

Hi Team,I've created the SharePoint List Columns using Content Type and then generated the Smart Objects, Views, Forms and Workflow for this List. When we try to design the workflow, we are unable to view the list of Smart Objects in the Smart Objects Category  in the k2 workflow designer. Due to this, we are unable to make use of the Smart Object Methods. Without creating content type if we directly create columns then we are able to use these columns in Workflow but we are facing issue only in workflow when going through content type. Pleaes advice. Thanks.
