Hello Community, is it possible to create own Field Types Categorie in the Environment Library?At the moment I use the Miscellaneous Field but it would be great if it's possible to create own Categories like Common Worklfow Fields or Common Form Fields to have a better overview which Field is for which situation. Thank you in advance for your Feedback. Best Regards,Alex

Hi, Where can I change the ViewFlow URL under the button "View Flow"? Kind Regards,Piotr
So there have been a few posts regarding JavaScript libraries but it never seems like they are conclusive.I have tried to use a few external JavaScript libraries but they never work, even with CrossSite Scripting turned off (in K2 Five since anything before that does not have that option). My latest attempt is trying to utilize a javascript library called SpaceTime that allows conversion of time to different timezones.I have attached a really small script for converting the current time to Eastern Time, and the script works if you open it in a browser, and it works anywhere else javascript is interpreted, but if I stick it in a Data Label and set it to Literal, it does not work.I have also tried to use other external JavaScript libraries before, such as the Google Charts library, Charts.js, and others, but they never work. Am i misusing it somehow or is it just not supported?
OK we are running K2 Five (5.0001.1000.1). In 4.7 we could call an IPC process as part of a loop or use plan per slot (no destinations). The sub-workflow / IPC process would have a task in it and we could then add a succeeding rule to stop the parent process continuing before all the sub-workflow tasks were completed. How the devil is this accomplished in the new workflow designer for Five? I can see the loop activity and the sub workflow activity and see that you can stop the workflow continuing until the sub-workflow task has completed but if you check this then you cannot do the looping as it'll create the first task and then wait. I think this was the same feature as the synchronous option in 4.7. Any ideas?
We have a form that collects a single attachment and stores it in a SQL database. Data type for the attachment field is an nvarchar(max). This works properly and the attachment is stored in the DB as a collection. However, we want to then send that attachment attached to an email. I tried using a Reference to that SmartObject (to the SQL table) but that didn't do anything. No attachment on the email but no error either. I then tried adding a direct SmartObject to the Attachment field on the email, passing in the ID to that row in the SQL table, returning the Attachment field. No luck there either. I'm definitely getting the right ID for that row (because i see it in reporting attached to the variable) but i just can't get the attachment to go through. What am I missing?
Hello,Usually after creating a List View and enable list editing in K2 Five, there is an added row below the previous list. I think this row is supposed to be a row of textbox matching with the data label above.In the previous version (K2 4.7), our late programming team use data label to replace a few of the textbox. How I can achieve the same result? I try to add manually a data label, It show the same result as the previous version. but when I switch the Field properties, the data label on the bottom turned into textbox.
Hello, in the context of an integration K2-SAP, we would like to send data from a K2 "application" to SAP. Data exchange from "normal" fields like textboxes is working fine.Neverthless, we do not succeed to configure data exchange from a K2 form/view to SAP for attachment file controls. We understand this integration is working with SharePoint thanks to a specific sharepoint service which is handling this. But nothing exists for SAP. Therefore we have developed in SAP the API which will receive the data and published it to K2. Find here-after some screenshots: The Form to manage Attachements in K2QuestionSomeone has any idea about the way this integration could be implemented ? Thanks in advance for your suggestions,BR
I'm looking for a way to list all the workflow steps and some of their configuration. I'm happy to use the C# API, a SmartObject, or a database query. I've been searching and haven't found anything yet. I'm not looking for the active instances, but rather the definitions. We have a lot of workflows and steps defined and I specifically want to know which of them have the "resolve groups to individuals" checkbox checked so I can avoid manually tracing through everything.
Good day all,I have been trying to figure out how to place a view above the Workflow View in a form (The one that lets you approve or reject or whatever steps have been configured in a workflow task).There was another post relating to placing views above tabs, which referred to this site: https://k2recipes.wordpress.com/2017/08/29/show-multiple-views-above-tabs-using-script/utilizing this code $($(“.view”)[viewIndex]).insertBefore(“.tabs-top”);However I have tried different variations of it to apply to the Workflow Task actions. The element has an ID of "WorkflowStrip" so I tried: $($(“.view”)[viewIndex]).insertBefore(“#WorkflowStrip”);But it does not work. Has anyone tried to do this before with any luck? Thank you in advance

We all know K2 can create SmartObjects based on existing schema in a database or service. I'm wondering if it can work the other way around. Can I: 1. Set up a SQL Server service instance in K2 and connect it to a database2. Define a SmartObject in K2 and have that SO definition create a table inside the database that can then be updated and queried as necessary Is this possible? I've looked at the documentation but couldn't find an answer; if I missed it, a link to the relevant docs would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Hi, We build solutions on a test server and then use package and deploy to copy to the live server. However I have created two new service instances and related SO on test that are preventing a deployment as they are missing on live server. Is there a way to copy/migrate these onto the live server or do we have to build them all together from scratch on the live server.I saw an article about a 'broker tool' but that suggested it was used to register a new one, it didnt suggest we can copy :-( Is there a tool that will do this? Thanks
I have noticed that teh Category security in K2 5.3 is not really applicable for workflows. Category security is being honored by Forms and View but teh workflows do not honor this. For example if I set a category security on teh folder in which tehre are workflows , forms and View. The security is honored when working with Forms and View but workflows still dos not honor the security permissions set on its parent folder. Is this true? does anyone has seen this behaviour? Any help is appreciated.
Hi, I have a process that is all but complete but have a niggling issue that I just can't troubleshoot, I don;t see at all how I can be doing something wrong, so before I turn to a support ticket, does the following ring a bell with anyone? IssueI have a display form which has an 'Edit Button' on which I have set a rule on to navigate to the edit form. I first used the straighforward 'Navigate to another form' rule and later tried the 'navigate to another form and execute a method' .... but both have the same result and whilst it DOES open and load the edit form and calls in the data, a message flashes up as follow: "List ID is required when specifying Site Url." If I open the edit form via the edit option on the SP list (ie, without going through the display form first) then it opens fine without any error message. The edit form does have two people pickers on that need a site url in the configuration but I have set this up in the resolving rules (tried both the site collection url an
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 rule that fires off when a print button is clicked. I want to be able to use this rule to change the form's theme to something that shows up better when printed. I added a "Set the Form's properties" action, but in the configuration, the theme property is greyed out and unable to be altered: Is this always the case, or is there a way to change a theme in a rule?
It seems impossible to achieve this through K2 form setting. Please help, thanks!

Turns out that we already have listed 8 Fix Packs for K2 Five...https://help.k2.com/kb002044 Either the Develpment is moving to light speed or is just very buggy and they try to quick patch bunch of things, but from the page links: To obtain the latest Fix Pack installer, please contact your regional K2 support center. Really... not only need to make sure you contact K2 Support Center, there is no easy access to the patches.. Don't plan to do this on a Fri night, might need to wait until Mon to get the Fix Packs.
