Hello community,If I use K2 smartbox smartobject database to maintain and store data, if developers wanted to access the K2 smartbox smartobject data via code, is it essentially the same as accessing any sql database? Would they just need a connection string/service account to access the K2 database? Example: K2 smartbox dataId(Autonumber)     UserName(string)     TransactionPerformed(string)1                            John Doe                    Editing List Could backend developers easily extract the smartbox data values similarly to extracting from sql database via code?  

Hello, I am trying to add the account number column from a different smart object to appear in a list view for another smart object.In the attached screenshot is a view of the main request and the list view below is all the related entries to the entry above.I am wondering if I can have a column that would show all the account numbers used for the request in a column as opposed to having the user click the entry to show all the related requests.

HIa, I have struggling a bit with getting these parameters to work 'consistantly: RootWebUrl / Source / SubsiteRelativeURLOn some forms/views they show succesfully (I test with a Data Label to show the value) and on some forms/views they return no value at all.  At first I though they maybe only worked on the the 3 OOTB forms that K2 produces, but I've added them to custom forms built from scratch before and it returned the correct value?These are essentail parameters to our environment as we produce solutions on test/dev and then deploy to live and this functionality means we don't have to hardcode urls's into the 'navigate to url rules etc.Question:Can someone explain how these parameters are designed to work?... I have been assuming they were a 'system function of K2' in that if you called a parameter by this specific name, it does something automatically in the background tio pull it in? (like the ID does) What is the correct porotocol for using these and/or am I missing something?

hi all, We use reverse proxy to redirect the intranet url. Then We define a workflow and configure a custom approval form. But when we run the workflow and use Inbox item in the workspace to open the task, we encountered a problem as attachment pic1.png: the right is white blank and the Chrome console alerts error even if we used https protocol for intranet url. And when we try to open the form by using the bar of bottom, it opened a intranet url. Can you tell me how to fix it and how to change the open url for the bar of bottom? Thanks very much.

When I route a work item to a specific user, it should get removed from all others queue. So that assigned person will work on the item.For example, workitem1 can be viewed by User A, User B and User C. When A assign it to C, the  work item should get disappear from queue of User A & B.How do we set this ?

Is there any way to match the currently logged in user to a list of names from a picker? I have a list view and need to allow a certain group of employees read access to all submitted forms while locking this view down so that other employees can only see forms they've submitted. Is there any way to accomplish this? The picker that I have set up with this list of employees is tied into an advanced smart object

Hello Community! I wanted to know if there is a way to convert a K2 Five SmartBox SmartObject into a SharePoint SmartObject. Thanks!Tom

Hello, I am trying to add a list of links from a smartobject into an email. The list is from sharepoint. I can bring in the list and separate them by a line by using the join function, but because of spaces in names i cannot just use the link field. i have tried to use the hyperlink function but i get all of the text as a single hyperlink not separated   

Hi All,few questions related to K2 Five and JScript. As "green" as I'm, I coudl not fond solid answer for K25 i could replicate. When using a JScript in Expression of a DataLabel, how do I ensure it will be fired only after the entire page contnet will be loaded ? Is there no robust solution for attaching and calling a custom js file to the form/project I could use ? I found some refferences in the custom control section, but what if I have no need for custom control, and only need to call scripts ?thx allPetr

Hey all, I have set up a basic workflow and it send out a task, However when the recipient opens the task, the content property has the url of the form as value. Its really confusing as the recipients will click on it thinking it goes some where else even though its the same link. Please refer to the pictures. My question is how I can remove that or change it from a hyperlink to a simple text. Thanks in advance!

I have a List View with pagination. On that List View i have action to create/ update the data then do List Refresh. The problem is everytime im doing List Refresh, the page always go back to page 1.

I need a file upload control to be added for every row in a list view control. As the requirement of, a document to be uploaded for every row in a list view. Please guide me or help me with the requirement.  Thanks,Gelli

If I create Task A and that task has been assigned a role, Role A that has two (2) people in it. The expected behavior is that the task gets sent out to the two (2) people that are within Role A. This works just fine. Here is my real question... IF Task A has sent tasks out to the two (2) people in role A and AFTER the task has been sent out, the membership to that role has changed, does K2 add or remove task assignments to users based on the changes to Role A? So if I added a person to Role A after Task A was sent out, will the third person now have access to action Task A? If not, what is a workaround for this? 

So I'm trying to combine worklist items with SmartObjects. To do so I'm looking at `server.WorklistHeader` table. Am I right thinking that this table contains all active and only active worklist items? This table contains a very nice column `https://our-k2.com/Runtime/Runtime/Form/Form+Name/?SerialNo=48_80&_state=State` that I will definately use. What I'm trying to figure out is this part of the url `SerialNo=48_80`. 48 - obviously is ProcInstID.80 - seems to be ActInstDestID, according to column value To find a current assignee i'm looking at  table `ServerLog.ActInstDest` where ServerLog.ActInstDest.ID = server.WorklistHeader.ActInstDestID ServerLog.ActInstDest.ProcInstID = server.WorklistHeader.ProcInstIDIs this correct?

Are there limits or restrictions on how many columns a list view can have? Running into some behavior on a list view populating from a Stored Procedure (35 columns) that the list will take forever to load and open up.  Sometimes the view will open and sometimes the view will error out and not load at all. If the stored procedure / smartobject is updated with new column - the view seems to error out and then I'm forced to create a new view / expressions / functionality and add it to the form again. This does not seem pratical.  Basic function I need this for is because I need to export the data into an excel file.Anybody else having this behavior or suggestions.

I have a form with several views yet the undrlying SmartObject covers all the views on the form not individual views. I added a property  Cost center, to the smart object  and added the property to one views. When doing this There wer No fields in the view in left panel I could add. So I manually  mapped thr field it back to the smart object in the rules configuration, Yet when I execute the form and implement the create method in the code, all the data is saved but the new field Cost Center is not. What steps have I missed or what is going on?  

Been playing with the Sharepoint Plugin and must say it's very user-unfriendly.... Am i right in thinking you need to create the Sharepoint List in Sharepoint first, then use the Sharepoint to create the Smartobjects/Forms for it?When creating the forms, it creates three copies, Display, New, Edit....... What's all that about then? My question is, can you prevent all the duplication and sharepoint nonsense and just create a Smartobject from scratch and generate single views/forms via the Sharepoint App as you would via K2 Designer?

Users in the Security Administrator role (Users/Roles/Security Administrators) are not seeing choices in their Management menu for the Workflow Server or for Mobile.  We need the administrator to give another employee Server Rights.  Where does someone need to be added so they can administer users' Workflow Server/Server rights?  Just to clarify, we know how to add Workflow Server/Server rights, but we don't know how to make someone an administrator in order to add those rights.  The Security Administrator doesn't even see the Workflow Server in the Management menu.

I’m sure K2 can do this, but I’ve googled all over the place and checked the K2 community but I can’t find a response.   Can K2 Cloud communicate with JDA Cloud (Now Blue Yonder).  Currently, our JDA is on premises so we are using a SQL Server Service Instance, but we are researching how our K2 applications would be affected if we move JDA to the cloud. I don’t see a specific connector for JDA cloud, so I’m guessing it would be through some kind of Rest connection or OData connection.  Is there any information that explains in detail how to set up this connection?  Would data be accessed via an API or some other method? 

I have been trying to work on a rule that if the approver selects "Requires Changes" as the decision to the Select Action in the Workflow View, that ensures that the field within the form is not blank. We have the Approval Comments in a view that has to have information for the decision to be accepted. I tried to place the validation rule on the "If current Workflow Activity is..." and I selected if Action = "Required Changes". While I can see a validation message pop open, the rest of hte rules that occur after (and these are in the rules as "Then" selections so these rules shouldn't happen while the validation occurs).  I've looked for examples on how to do this as I can't imagine that it would be uncommon to require information to be included with a decision - but I haven't found a tutorial or any other information that seems to display how to do this.  

Hi All,I want to integrate the Workflow REST API with MS Flow but the feature when I click on it give me an error like it is not installed. I'm assuming I missed something when setting up the environment and thought I would throw it out on here while I am trying to dig through to find an answer. The error I am getting is "SmartObject property Name is a required property for selected method Load. Value must be set."   Here is the whole thing: Error SmartObject property Name is a required property for selected method Load. Value must be set. Type:System.NullReferenceExceptionSource:SourceCode.SmartObjects.ClientMethod BaseMember Type:MethodName:ValidateModuleScope Name:SourceCode.SmartObjects.Client.dllDeclaring TypeFull Name:SourceCode.SmartObjects.Client.SmartObjectStack Trace:at SourceCode.SmartObjects.Client.SmartObject.Validate(Boolean isList)at SourceCode.SmartObjects.Client.SmartObjectClientServer.ExecuteScalar(SmartObject smartObject, DataTable inputTable)at SourceCode.Forms.AppF

I realize docusign integrates with K2/Smartforms, however I dont have access to the product at this time and I need to have some way of approximating or indicating approval on a SF that will, at the end of the process be converted into a PDF and sent to an outside email recipient. I also realize that every person that has the approval task only has access to that task through K2 process rights/roles etc. I just need a visual way to indicate it was "Signed" like a digital stamp or watermark or something. Anyone come up with anything like that other than using Docusign? Thanks Dave

I have a workflow that I made changes to in designer, but I want to revert all those changes how do I do that? I want the workflow in designer to replicate that of what the default workflow has without having to back and remove all my changes manually. 

Hi K2 Five expert,Currently I know how to  change sender from configuration.Now I would like to know how to create second sender and how to appoint to specific workflow using the second sender to send the system(or customize) mail in the same environment. Thank you.
