Nintex Automation K2

I have a workflow that's going to involve 3 employees. Usually employee 1 will submit the workflow, then it'll be routed to employee 2, who will approve it and send it to employee 3 to complete. What I'm trying to figure out how to do is set up the logic so that if employee 2 submits it, it goes to employee 3. I can't seem to get it to work.

I had success in previous CMS tools where I could have a red character count shown to users after they started typing into a memo box of sorts.Is there a way to display / show number of characters remaining in a textbox area? If I set the max to 256 and it does a count down. Thank you in advance!

I'm attempting to create a REST service instance to connect to my company's Product Catalog app using AAD authentication, and I received the following error:  I'm not sure whom to contact about this. Does it mean a K2 admin, an AAD admin, or an admin for the app I'm connecting to? I'm very new to this, so any insight would be appreciated. Thanks! Kristen

Hello All,I have a workflow with a loop. I want to count the iterations of the loop and report the number of times the loop ran. I have a variable in my workflow to track the count. I can set an explicit value for my variable. But I am not able to set the value using a simple additions (e.g.  Count = Count + 1). I've even tried assigning the current count to another variable and then adding 1 to the other variable without success.e.g. Count2 = CountCount = Count2 + 1 Is there a trick to doing simple math and assinging the result to a variable in a workflow? Thanks,-tomas

I have a picker control that appears after a user selects a specific answer from a radio button control that takes awhile to load and when it does the expand arrow does not appear to work.  It will populate the control with the values from the SmartObject but when trying to expand the control it won't work. Any suggestions? Using K2 5.1 on prem.

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

I am trying to install a new custom control on a local server. Here's the link to the download for the control I got from the K2 community. We are currently using K2 Five 5.3 and are receiving the following error when trying to register the control in the command prompt: "Searching assembly for control type definitions...Found 0 control type definitions" I have made sure to use the correct namespace and FullName in the control type definition XML file. The project builds in visual studio with no errors. DLL files are not blocked. Commands are being run as an administrator.As I said, the issue is occurring when I run register on the "controlutil.exe" file.

HelloI'm a newbie K2 FiveI need expert helpI created a SMO where I can enter user login and level.for exampleuser - access leveluser1 - 1user2 - 1user3 - 2user4 - 3....How can I set up a rule so that I can show or hide some element on a form for all users of the same level?How create condition for "if an advanced condition is true" rule?What is the best way to do this?

Hi All, I wanted to add role based security to my smartform.i.e: I have a form that should be viewed by the 'Standard' role. I have a button called 'Create' on that form that should only be viewed by 'Capture' role. Usually I would go about using the UM(User Management) smartobjects and execute as follows:I would try one of the various methods provided.Input : user name or FqnFilter : Role nameIf any output is returned then the user is in the required role. But for some reason in K2 Five it no longer works that way. I can return all roles or all users belonging to a role. As soon as I add a filter, then I receive a generig error message. Has anyone found a workaround on how to use form level role security? Thanks!

I have a smartobject generated from a SQL instance. The "List" method returns value from a single row (let say columns A,B and C) when we provide an input value to a field(let say A). I am interested in one column field(C) in that row. How to get just that one value? I tried creating a advanced smartobject but could not find the right way to do it. I want to map that value in the workflow . Is there  a way to filter the value of column "C" ? Stored procedure is one solution , in such case, but I just want to explore if there is a way to do the same in K2. 

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

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.
