I'm trying to retrieve user's task list using example documented here . The problem is I only get tasks that are assigned directly to me. I don't get any deligated/shared items. How do i get them?

Hi, I am trying to filter the values returned in a picker based on the value of another picker - however I can't seem to get it to work. The two pickers are on different views so I am trying to complete the filter on form level. Does anyone have any idea on how this can be done? See attached screenshots. I want the values in Picker 2 to be filtered by the client in Picker 1. Thanks!

Hi all,I am trying to access workflow REST API but basic authentication is failing as shown in attached image. Secondly, I am able to access swagger page but when I click "try it out" nothing happens as shown in image. I even tried this - https://help.k2.com/support-services/kbt147579 but still no luck. Thanks,Waleed

Hi all, What is the correct way of applying security to a Category. Lets use this example, say i have a category structure like this: Forms         HR         Sales I only want HR to see their own Category and no other Category, whether that is a parent category or a sibling category. I tried deny All Users all rights (except execute) at the Forms level, then allow HR all rights on their HR Category only? HR should be able to create and deploy and only see their own workflows. When i apply this, the Forms folder is hidden, so there is no way to get to the HR category. If i enable All Users View rights on the top level Forms, then anyone could do a SAVE AS on a form and save it into the HR category, which is no good. Is there a proper way to do this? (the only way i can think off is a Top level category for each department which is messy when not under a folder structure. Any ideas??? Thanks

Hi all, Hoping somone can assist or point me in the right direction. I have 2 date/time fields (start and end) for a booking request form, im trying to ensure that the form forces users to provide an end date/time field greater than the start date/time field specified.  Whats the best way to achieve this?

Hi Simple question.   I want to know if I can write a SQL script to assign rights against a workflow, rather than entering manually. Which SQL table contains the users that have been assigned rights to workflows (so that they can do actions such as start, view etc.)? Ideally, I don't want to create active directory groups to mass assign users. To provide context, I am doing this on our development environment for testing purposes.  Thanks.  

Hi  I am generating a an AutoGUID from SQL but need to pass this GUID to a workflow, when I try to pass the GUID to the workflow I am getting a conversion error. do I need to convert it before the workflow starts or can I do some conversion in the workflow itself?

Hi,How to create Custom workspace url. I need to Retrieve Linkid and Workspaceid to genertae the URL . Is it poossible to retrieve this data using any of system genertaed smart object? Thank you 

Dear Fellow K2 Developers, What seemed like a simple operation has turned into a bit of a mind-numbing mess. I have a List View of user accounts. These accounts are a blend of external users and domain users. I want to be able to filter that list to only show acounts whose email addresses do not contain our company URL. (so any user with an email from a public domain) In the filter settings for a list view I have the option to filter by addresses that contain a certain string, but not to filter by addresses that do NOT contain a certain string. I have spent the past day messing with expressions and rules to try and find a workaround... But am having no luck. Has anyone else come upon this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated! Best regards,~ Andrew

Hi there.  I'm attempting to follow the instructions to add some newly purchased licenses to our existing stock.  Step 1 says: Start installation sequence for the K2 software (or retrieve the System Key referred to below from the K2 Service Manager if the software is already installed).    I'm not sure what that means.  How do I get the system key?  I think I know the rest of the steps, but what is the K2 Service Manager referred to below and how does it give me the system key?   Thanks, Rob 

According to the K2 Security Assessment and Penetration Testing 2020 results, one item with medium severity of the pen test of October 2019 remained open after the retest in January 2020. It was supposed to be mitigated during software updates in the course of 2020. Does anyone know if they have eliminated this server-side request forgery issue within a specific SmartForms control allowing an attacker to discover internal endpoints?

Hi, I have an approval form which actions a worklist item in a workflow and at the same time it passes two values from the approval form and puts them into datafields with in the workflow. This worked fine for the initial two datafields I created, but recently I have added a 3rd datafield and mapped this into the rule configuration and I continuously get an error stating "Datafield can not be found" so the rule will not run. I have attached 3 screenshots to confirm that the datafield can be seen clearly in the workflow and shows up on the config screen, so I am a total loss as to what is different to the 3rd datafield I have added?Any ideas what this could be (the workflow/forms etc have all been deployed,checked in etc). Thanks if anyone can shed any light, it is driving me nuts lol Julie :-)

Hi,  I have a  requirement to start a workflow based on certain condition.  Condition is to start a workflow , if any file is loaded into a folder path. I am using File System Service smart object  to check if the file count is greater than zero using Getfiles Method. But the workFlow is not getting started. Any help is greatly appreciated as there is no enough documentation on how to start a workflow based on smart object value. Thank You

Hello, I have a form I made where a user can select multiple approvers by adding a new line to an editable list.This list is it's own smart object and it pulls the ID of the request and saves it so that my workflow can get the list of all the approvers for this ID during the workflow.I am trying to setup a list view to show all previous requests for the form and if someone was an approver for that ID to have the request appear.Attached are screenshots of the form so you can see there is one view to enter all information which is its own smart object, another for attachments which is it's own object and the approvers which is it's own object.I'd like for an approver for the request to see any request they approve but I've tried a few different things like using a list box but that didn't seem to work. Is there an association I could make that could have the approvers appear for the request?

How to create pdf of specific tab of a smart form?

Hi, guys, do anyone knows what is the name of the service instance and the Smart-Object, that is associated with the Server.WorklistHeader table in SQL?  Regards

hi, We currently have our attendance forms on a printed piece of paper. Employees write their names and then affix their signatures beside their name. I'm looking at creating a K2 form for this. The process I'm thinking is, user enters their employee ID, this would then lookup their ID and name from database and displays in the form. User would then have to sign beside their name. I'm stuck at how to capture their signatures. I've read about K2 integration with DocuSign. However, I'll need to have a paid account with DocuSign right? I also tried the image annotation control but it looks like our company's tablet that will be used for this is not supported by this control.Is there a way to do this without having to subscribe to DocuSign or any paid account? thanks

Hi, Any ideas how to remove the last three characters from a Data Label Value. So if the Value is "TEST #3" how do i remove the "space#3" tag ??? or is there a way to look for and remove the String "space#3" as it will always be the same Is there an expression that will do it? Thanks, help appreciated as always

I can't seem to find an expression operator to subtract months / years from a date. In sql normally I'd run a DateAdd(month, - 6, date) or DateAdd(day, -7) to get my comparison. Is there a good way to do this?I have a Stored Procedure to populate a list based on a range between dates.Today / last week / last 30 days / last 6 months / last yearUsing radio buttons I want to auto populate parameters with my dates (auto set my expressions) I got Today / 7 days from today / 30 days ago from today to work.    

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!

My K2 Admin said that they added a number of different Active Directory domains to K2.  However I'm not being able to pull them from SmartObject Methods..   I couldnt find much for K2 about adding multiple domains.Is there anything in particular I need to do?  Create a new method? SmartOject?  

Evaluating the maintenance impact when reusing SmO across different view/formsIf a SmartObject is shared with 5 different SmartForms and an additional field is added to the SmartObject, do all 5 SmartForms need to be updated to extend the view even though only 1 form would use the new field? That's the take away from: https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/userguide/5.3/default.htm#Create/SmartObjects/SmOConsAndBestPractices.htm%3FTocPath%3DCreate%7CSmartObjects%7C_____13 Impact of editing and deleting SmartObjectsEditing and then saving a SmartObject creates a new version of the SmartObject. If you've used the SmartObject in a view, for example, you must make changes to the view to include the changes made to the SmartObject. For example, if there is a view called Region Details which uses the Region SmartObject, when you edit the SmartObject to include a new property such as Cost Center Code is added, you must update the Region Details view to also include the new property.
