Hi,  I am trying to use the GetWorkListItems on the Task Smartobject, but I am struggling to use the RegularFilter.  Can someone explain what needs to go here, and in what format? I am trying to call this method from a form/view, with the end goal to re-direct a task. I beleive I have all the information I need to redirect the Task, except the Task ID. The only way to get this, I think, is to use the GetWorkListItems method, but if anyone knows of another way, then please let me know! Cheers! Matt

At the moment I have to set the "Styles" for every single control one by one.If would be nice if I could mark more than one control and change the same style settings for all of them in one step!Additionaly it would be fine if there was a "property" list for all the style-properties as it is for example in visual studio. RegardsViktor

Hello All,We're in the middle of converting some workflows to V5.One thing that is different is the Workflow view.On the old workflow, you can click on the Activity and an Activity Summary window pops up with several tabs of information. If the workflow has had several iterations at the current activity, the history is available and you can step back through the iterations to review information.On the new workflow, I can see where I am in the workflow, but I don't get the extra data that was available in the old workflow view.Q:  Is that extra information available elsewhere? Is my workflow not working properly?Thank you for any insights. -tomas

Hi, I see that there is still no functionality in K2 5 designer for a simple thing like adjusting the Title font size or type. Can anyone please suggest some code that will adjust the List Box Header/title font size? I tried the method i've used for List Views :<script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function(){ $('.grid-column-header-text').css({'font-size' : '12px','font-family' : 'arial'});});</script> and literal ticked, with the data lavel inside the table, but it's not working on a List Box Any ideas K2 Maestro's?

Ok, depending on who you talk to, you get a different answer. My question is, we are on K2 v4.7 and are aiming to do an in-place upgrade from v4.7 to v5.3 Can we download the K2 v5.3 installer and use that for the upgrade, or do we have to upgrade to v5.1 first, then upgrade to v5.3 The v5.3 installer on the Downloads page says this: Installer can be used to install a new environment, upgrade to k2 Five (5.0, 5.1, or 5.2) or upgrade an existing K2 blackpearl 4.7 environment. K2 Support tell me that i need to go to v5.1 first, then to v5.3, but the Installer for v5.3 say it can be used to upgrade an k4.7 environment. So what is it, what is the offical answer here? Thanks

I am trying to create a workflow that sends an email with some info and a link that is dynamically generated.K2 now has the ability to directly render HTML in the email step, and that works perfectly if the link is not dynamic and does not need to change, but if the link needs to change, there's no way to do that because if I press the <>HTML button at the top right corner of the editor, it just wipes the editor area and does not show any code. So I have no way to edit the code of whatever rendered HTML I paste in.Has anyone found a way to make this happen? The first screenshot is the rendered HTML, the second one is after pressing the HTML button on the corner

Hi, I am just deploying a solution from our test environment to live which deployed OK. However, I have had to make a change to a column name on the Sharepoint List on Test, and i have regenerated the list SO as I would normally do. And have repackaged the solution with the change. I have also made the name change to the SharePoint list on our live envionment so that it matches, but I'm unsure whether I need to 'regenerate' the SM on live via the SP List settings application aswell? Or with the New package do this automatically and there is no need for me to do this manually? I don;t want to do it manually if it will put the SM's out of sync with each other? Hope this makes sense!

Hi,  I was setting prod environment in a similar way to our development environment and created connection to Azure Active Directory. Everything works fine, but there is one difference - executing SmartObject UMUser on production with method "Get Users" returns Manager property just with manager's name ("name"), without security label. In our development environment, UMUser returns Manager property with both name and security label ("AAD:name" for example). I attached the screenshot showing this differencies. Could anyone know why this field has differencies and what can I change to have manager field as FQN?  

Dear all, We configured two-way trust relationship for domains and add another domain in k2. We can login k2 site by another domain user. But when we want to add the user into custom role, we can't find it and can only search default domain user. We clear the cache but not work. Can you tell me how to add multiple domain user into custom role? Best regards,

Has anyone seen workflows go into an error state when the email reminder is configured to 'send the email to task participants', which in this case happens to be the originator on the recipients tab?  Error in Management: ActivityInstanceDestination property not available in given context.  Does the To field need to be completed when selecting the 'Send email to task participants' option?   

Hi I have a form that is uploading files to a sharepoint doc. lib. but needs to be able to upload the files to a subfolder, which can be 2-3 subfolders. I can get all of the subfolders from a dropdown get folders, but when the file is uploaded it is creating the folder at the top folder, then uploading the file into the newly created folder, instead of uploading the file to sub, sub subfolder. How can I either display the full path in the dropdown and then have the file get uploaded to that third level subfolder. 

Hi,we run K2 5.2 on Windows Server 2012 R2 ...For the latest Version 5.3 (or ine of the next releases) we have to upgrade the Windows Server Version as well.But just upgrading Windows 2012 to 2016 is no option for us. That means, we are going to setup a new Windows Server 2016 or 2019. But that means again, that we will have a clean server without a K2-Installation at first.What is the best way to migrate the K2-Solutions  to the new Server?Andi

For my task assigments I'm using roles for easier administration. There are times where I want to send a message to the same recipients without assigning a task so I'm using the 'Email' step. Annoyingly it seems the recipient field on the 'Email' step doesn't allow selection of a role for receiving the message.  This means if I want to add a user to receive a task and receive emails I'll need to add them to both the role, and hardcode them directly in the workflow. The other option is to configure a distribution group for the email side of things but it still means group administration needs to be done in 2 places. Workflow Roles and Distribution Groups.  Is there any way of getting roles into the email step? Also, I realise I can work around this by assigning a task with a notification and a very short expiry time but this seems like a really simple function that shouldn't require workarounds like this.

Hello Community! As part of our governance, my organization is looking for a way to restrict Citizen Developers from creating Smart Objects, but still allowing them to create views, forms, and workflows.  Has anyone else ever done this?  If so then please provide guidance and examples.  Alternate suggestions about a governance approach are also welcome. Thanks! Tom
