Hi, While trying to restrict access to categories, I was testing attaching a Workflow to a Button Click in a Form, but am getting the error: Minimum of Export Rights are required to perform this action. If i give that Export right to the User, they can see ALL the workflows in every category, which is a big NO NO. How do i only let the user see and attach the workflows they have created in their own category??? Thanks

Hi All, Can anyone help me to unlock the K2 five designer workflow. which was locked by another account and cannot login to that account. Thanks in advance.

Hello, Would the below be a supported topology? It is similar to distributed environment but One of the IIS server would also be the K2 application server. Documented at https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/icg/5.2/default.htm#Plan/TOP-Distributed.htm%3FTocPath%3DPlan|Sample%2520Topologies|_____3 User Machine Network Domain access Server 1 IIS - for internal use in domain & Firewall no external access K2 Application Server Server 2 IIS - For use outside of the domain (Possible anonymous access, when not in network or on VPN for employees This server may be located in Azure but would have public IP address and network access to Server 1 and Server 3. Server 3 MS SQL Server  If this is supported what things do i need to take into consideration orkeep an eye out for?

I have an issue about task mail with the dynamic recipient, each receiver will receive different mail context. My recipient gets from DB data, so I can not sure the exact number of receivers.And each receiver will get their owned mail context, the mail context also gets from DB data. I was using a loop to send the task mail, but I found that the task only sends to the first receiver, not all receivers in once. Only if the first receiver reply to the task, the workflow will keep going. (Please see the picture 1.) But if I use one task to send the whole receivers, I will get an issue that I don't know how to assign the single value to each task mail, looks like I only can put the whole smartobject field on the mail body?  (Please see the picture 2, 3.)   Is there any good way to implement the requirement? Thanks in advance! pic 1 

Hello,  We are a partner and have K2 sandbox/demo environment and I am currently doing some of the excercise in K2 University. However I do not see any access to the K2 Workflow server to kickoff a basic workflow. Does this access come with the partner demo environment? Thanks.

Hi, We are currently in the process of using an external WebForm in order to submit data to a SharePoint list via SharePoint REST services. Since we are using an external form we want to have a URL formatted so that the Title input to the user is formatted as a hyperlink to open the external form and READ the SP Data. The issue I am having is, SharePoint OOTB Hyperlink field has two values the URL and the Display text, when the external form sets the display text, I need the workflow to make an edit to the field and set the URL. Instead - the workflow is setting the Display text and the URL with my environment variable: https:externalform.com. Causing SharePoint to display the the URL as https://externalform.com, does anyone have a fix around this? When creating the SharePoint smartobject and reference K2 sees the SharePoint hyperlink column as straight text field instead of HYPERLINK. Thank you!

Hello, dues to a data loss that was discovered way too late to get it back from backup we lost our SVD files for several K2 connect SAP SmartObjects... Is there any possibility to get them back from what is saved in K2? I have seen that the SVD files seems to be plain XML, correct? Is this information "stored" in the DB? Happily in one table :-)? Or do I have to combine several information? regards,Johann

I am attempting to add attachments to a new item form attached to a SharePoint list. I added the "Add Attachments" view onto the form and am trying to adjust the rules to allow the attachments to be associated with the new list item that is being created. How do I get the attachments to save to the new form without knowing what the ID is for the new item?  I attempted to get the id from the configure outgoing settings and write it to a property and then see what it is collecting the the set the properties of ID Content control. Everything I attempt to collect and write to the ID Content control is empty. Thanks for any help. Ben

Hi, I am wondering if the following scanrio is expected behavoir or I am missing something in the way I am applying rules to controls on a smartform (K2 5.3). Scenario. 1) I have a dropdown choice control which I will set a rule on to change another controls value dependant on the selection value of the dropdown control. In the form initialize rule, there is a rule to populate this control with dropdown data and that seems to be forcing the rule on my control to run at the same time as the form loads (ie: not giving me a chance to select a value). As a workaround I have to put a fake control on the form (transfer data to it at the end of the form load rules, and then use this as an additional condition when running the rule 'on change' (ie: if 'fake field is not empty'). This doesnt seem a very elegant way of doing it, does anyone else have this issue or is it normal? Thanks, Julie

Can K2 Five process data paralellly in one workflow? For example i submit 5 data in one workflow and in one submit form2 data contains Financial data and 3 data Non-Financial data. Can the form/workflow divide parallelly so theFinancial data will be approved by Financial staffand Non-Financial data  will be approved by Non-Financial staff.  This is my current workflow. Because when i execute this, the data still not paralelly executed. The workflow onlymoves to one path only.     

I've been trying to find this answer since I tried to create a filter both within the Load Rules of my List View and then from the user filters when the load rules didn't work. I need to create the list view that will display only the items that were completed today. I have a Date/Time field named Workflow Completed Date and when trying to filter the data when that equals Current Date, there is no returned info. I tried to even manually type in the date and that doesn't work.  This is a commonly requested requirement from staff, so I was hoping that there was an easy way to do this. basically, I need to a way to see what was done today, and what wasn't done today.

Hi, In the list below, I am trying to update the % Complete column on the 'top item' to say 100% (which works fine) but I would like it to then go through all the list items with the same 'Master Process ID" and update the % Complete field on all of them at the same time. I've been playing around with the 'SO method of updating unchanged items, but think I am barking up the wrong tree as it is asking for a single ID? Any suggestions for the best way to achieve this?  Thanks :-)

Is there a way to join 3 SmartObjects into 1 Method??  I am running into issues once I join my third one. Basically I have the following SMO. EnvironmentTable -  ID / FormIDSafetySMO -  ID / Form IDFormSMO - FormID / Description I would love to join all of them together into a composite SMO with -MAIN FORM ID (IDs from Environment / Safety)  / FormDescription  And show all values from the Environment / Safety.   Like a SQL Join. I can create individual Methods to display  Environment + Form  /   Safety + Form  and they display correctly.But when I try adding a third it breaks. Or can I display both methods onto 1 view?

How do I execute SSIS package from K2 Five?Below is my approach:K2 Five calls Stored Procedure Stored Procedure calls SSIS package(s) SSIS package(s) could possibly call other SSIS packages SSIS Package(s) returns execution status to a SQL Table or Stored Procedure K2 reads the execution status to perform other actions within Workflows or SmartForms Here is the issue: I need restart certain SSIS packages if they failed to execute. How do I accomplish this?

What is the best way to back up applications (forms, views, and SmartObjects) so that I can revert to a previous version is necessary?  

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?  

Hi All Does anyone get the same issue as me whereby any formatting changes you make on a Choice control dont have any effect when you run the generated SmartForm. I.e. If you change the font size, style, colour etc it changes  OK in K2 Designer but when you run the SmartForm it makes no differnce thanks  

Hello All,I'm trying to enable Workflow REST API. I've gone to the Management tool and enabled the Workflow REST API there. I'm presented with a Swagger URL and a Base URL and both appear to be correct. But then I click the icon to view the  Swagger information, I get this error message:{  "Message": "The Workflow API in K2 has been disabled, please use K2 Management to enable it."} Is there something else that needs to be done (aside from flipping the switch in the Management interface)?Are there other pre-requisites?Did we miss a step in the setup process? Any insights are appreciated. Thank you,-tomas vera

The 'worklist item' does work OK if I leave it at the default one that appears on the initial email, although if I added this manually to the email via the context list then that doesn't link either. I am read a similiar thread in regard to this issue, but that thread seems to be about the links not performing the actions after being clicked, I can't get mine to hyperlink to start with, any ideas? Heres the email output:From: K2 BlackPearl Server (test) Sent: 26 July 20*personal details removed*:48 To: Julie Bird <*personal details removed*> Subject: Document Submitted for your approval: Dummy 1.docx Dear Julie Bird, A document is awaiting your approval.
