hi all, I understand that K2 provides two concepts named originator and originator's manager.But I could not  found where can I define originator's manager for originator. Can I define it on AD? Can you tell me? Thanks and best regard,

It's not mentioned in the matrix (only says VS 2015), but does anyone know if Visual Studio 2017 is supported in K2 Five? Also, Windows 2019 Insider builds are out, is this to early for K2 to support or inform whether it is compatible? Thanks

Hi, We are working with K2 Five with different users. As we are using the new Workspace we need access to System Folder to allow publishing of pages but in designer this sections only appears for K2 Installation account. How we can share access to this folder with a base user with permisions to Designer? Also we are trying to limit acces to K2 Designer, we created a role to allow access but if we Deny access to "Everyone" group, the access is denied for everyone and if we break inheritance and only allow access to our custom role everyone can access to designer. Thanks!

Hi,I have a scenario where the REST api response returns a field like below - "TeamMembers": “FirstName1 LastName1 FirstName2 LastName2 FirstName3 LastName3”and so on … .There might be n no. of team member names in this. In K2 Designer view/form, when I transfer this data (via REST smartobjects) -in textbox control it looks like-“FirstName1 LastName1FirstName2 LastName2FirstName3 LastName3” and in data label control it displays with line breaks like -FirstName1 LastName1FirstName2 LastName2……. etcI want to get the count of the “team members names” . I am unable to find out a string format operator or method to get individual names in K2 and get the count .How to achieve this ?Thanks

There seems to be a problem with insufficient memory in the K2 Five VM provisioned in the past few days. Soon after starting the VM, I get repeated "Insufficient Memory" warnings in the VM, and after a while the Remote Desktop disconnects. When I try to reconnect to the VM, I get error message "Because of a protocol error (code: 0x112f), the remote desktop session will be disconnected. Please try connecting to the remote computer again." Sometimes the connection terminates without an error message.  When I reboot the VM, I can connect to it again, but the process repeats itself: Insufficient memory warning, then I can't connect anymore I did a Google search on the error message, and I found some threads that support my hunch that the problem is related to insufficient memory in the terminal server The specific VM is C-171-AZPAZP5RB.cloudapp.net:3389

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!

Can K2 interface with one note and if yes can anybody advise on how to do it? RegardsAndyr   

I need to be able to increase the height, specifically image size in a list view.  The image is coming from a SQL table.  Thanks for your help!

Somehow, I assume an extra item reference was created to a smartbox object I am trying to use in workflow. I get this error repeatedly.  I cannot find any help on community or in K2 documentation on how to trouble shoot this. Should I delete the workflow?  Will it work if I start over? or is there now some rule configured which will have a problem in a future workflow? Anyone else experience this error before?  How do I get this resolved, short of remote services fixing it?  I need to learn how to find these problems and fix them myself if possible.

We have an environment with 4.7 workflows that we've upgraded to Five. We use the Visual Studio plugin to maintain those workflows. We are aware that we have to install the 4.7 client tools first and upgrade them to Five to maintain those workflows if we have a new client machine. Is that true for the server? If we want to install an entirely fresh new K2 Five environment and deploy our apps to it, do we have to start with 4.7 and upgrade that to 5.2? Another way of asking the question: could we do a fresh install of Five and point it to our upgraded 4.7 to 5.2 database and expect the legacy workflows to work?

Hi All, We are trying to integrate with a REST Service API from K2 cloud. The REST endpoint uses the API Key in the header for Authorization. Can you please let us know the ways to pass the API Key in the HTTP Request Header. Thanks and Regards,Thileeban.C

Hi just want to ask a few question In K2 Five i already know that is a ootb function to send email using task notification and you can customize the body and etc. But there is a problem, can i customize the body without deploying the workflow to change it. For example are there any smartform / smartobject that can change the body so it can be parameterize. Or there are any other way to change the body. Because K2 Documentation that i read (https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/userguide/5.1/default.htm#K2-Workflow-Designer/Use/Toolbox/Basic/SendEmail/Send-Email.htm) just point out that you need to change the body in the workflow.  Thanks

Hi all,  I have a textbox control with the following configuration: Datatype:DecimalStyle: Language English (US)   Does anybody know a solution for this issue?. Thank in advance.

I have a form with two multi-select controls populated with data from a database. Multi-select 1 shows a set of values from a database table - let's call this Asset Code. User can go into the form and select one or more Asset Codes. Multi-select 2 needs to show Design Codes, each of which has an associated Asset Code. I want to populate this second multi-select to only show Design Codes where the associated Asset Code is one of those selected in multi-select 1. If the user selects a single Asset Code from multi-select 1, it works. We see design codes that match that asset code. But as soon as the user selects two or more items from multi-select 1 (which was the whole point of having the multi-select control) it fails. Variant 1: If I used the default "filter the data according to another control's value" tick box, then it tries to use the Asset Code(s) as an input mapping and doesn't retrieve anything as soon as there are two values. Variant 2: I went in and changed the Populate rule t

We have our K2 Five installation separated into a web server and an app server. When we try to load saved workflows, the workflow designer halts at 80%. I can see a browser console error showing that K2 is trying to connect to the K2 database using our web server service account, not our app server service account. Do I have to give our web server service account access to the database? I had the understanding that everything goes through the app server. Maybe that's not true for the designer? It seems to be only workflows. SmartForms seem to save and run fine. I'm attaching a screenshot of the console error.

Having received great advice and responses on my last question regarding setting up a custom SQL Server database to host content, I have some follow-up questions. First, a quick overview: We're outgrowing SharePoint and have decided to stand up a new SQL Server 2016 database to host K2 content (totally separate from our K2 app database) We're using K2 Five on-premises and our database will also be on-prem within our firewall We have Active Directory on-prem, synched to Azure ADQuestions before we create the database:Is SQL Server 2016 Standard edition a good choice or is another option recommended? Does K2 care about what the new database or server is named? In one of our K2 classes, we learned that either Impersonate or Service Account would normally be used to connect to SQL databases. Is one recommended one over the other? We want to ensure we’re setting up proper permissions to the database. I assume Impersonate would require granting large numbers of AD users read/write permission

Help! I'm not sure what I'm missing. I'm trying to create a flag in a Data Label (true), if the current user is a member of an AD Group when initializing the form.I swore it worked previously in my environment, but now - nothing. Am I missing a step? I'm executing a SmartObject method at Initiliazing - Get Group Users The problem is that no matter what - the Data Label always displays 'true' - even if the user is not a member of the group. Am I missing a step/ my logic for the filter is wrong? Thanks!
