While upgrading from version 5.1 to 5.2, ran into an error related App Framework. I know that the App artifacts will need to be checked in for this upgrade to complete successfully. I cannot find a Checkin option for to use to check in the Core App artifacts. Any suggestions on how to do this

When I route a work item to a specific user, it should get removed from all others queue. So that assigned person will work on the item.For example, workitem1 can be viewed by User A, User B and User C. When A assign it to C, the  work item should get disappear from queue of User A & B.How do we set this ?

Hi All  I am working on an application which is in K2 4.7 . Our organization needs to Migrate to K25.1 . However before migrating I wanted to access what are the impact of it and what would be work required. Please let me know the steps to follow:   1) Migrate all the servers to K2 5.1 2) Fix the broken component in the dev server . The workflow are expected to break but can you please specify the exact components that are expected to break. Also what tool do we use to fix the broken component. 3) Once the component are fixed, we need to package using K2 5.1 P&D tool. Deploy it to the Production server.  Is this all we have to do ? Also I wanted to know what would happen to the In-flight workflows in the Production server.  I have workflows that are using SmartObjects , will that break if the SmartObjects are migrated. o be followed. Are the below steps sufficent.   

I have a form that isn't displaying in the workspace window. If I open the email link that gets sent, or if I click on the Open button on the bottom right of the workspace window, I can get the form to display in the browser. I just can't get it to display in the "inbox" window within workspace.  I've tried adding the site to Compatibility view, as well as adding the URL to the trusted sites in IE and still nothing. Just the popup along the bottom of the window that says "Only secure contect is displayed" and a button to click to allow unsecure content. If I click it, the page reloads and nothing happens. This is happening in both Chrome and IE It works just fine in my dev environment. But once I moved everything to prod, I started to get this weird behavior. Could it have something to do with the fact that production is a secure site, and dev isn't?

I know that the picker does not have a "NOT CONTAIN" filter, sadly for us all as it would be quite helpful.However it does have a "NOT EQUALS"       With an exact match it should have worked in filtering it out, but it does not.Is that an issue you guys have found by any chance?

 Hi, So, I'm trying to put some basic logic on two calendars. Select a check-in date on Calendar1 and then if the check-out date has not been picked yet, or is before the check-in date, on Calendar2 then move it to the day ahead of the check-in date. Everything works, except for when Calendar2 has not been picked. If you look at the attachments I've got what I think is pretty sound logic and I've checked for just about everything I could possibly think of. Anybody know why it's failing? TIA.

I cannot figure out hot to send an email to a K2 Role. I can do it for a task but not an email. Anyone ever had luck with this?

Dear All, I have just installed k2 5.2 so please forgive if this one has already been covered. I'm just after some thoughts on the best approach to creating smart objects on K2 five. I've noticed that you can't define the location of the smart object upon creation and it ends up wherever K2 puts it in relation to the broker. Before in SOTT I used to  rename and place the SMOs in the folder structure for the app I'm working on upon creation. Now it seems I have to create it, locate it, rename it and then move it. I don't mind doing this of course but I was wondering what everyone else is doing? Thanks

Hi,We have a new install of K2 5 (not an upgrade) and I was suprised at how few workflow actions there were until I noticed in the older version of K2 they had many Workflow wizards within the Workflow designer that provided a number of useful actions but we do not have these in our install?  Have they been withdrwan altogether or do we need to install an add on or similar? Here are the main ones we seem to be missing that we would utilise: Documents Set WizardGroups Wizard UsersWizard Active DirectoryWizard Exchange WizardWord Document WizardAll Permission Actions (On libraries, Lists and documents) A particular scenario I am trying to achieve is to convert a word document to a PDF and have it moved to a different library location, how could this be achieved without the ‘Word Document’ wizard which includes this action on the old version? Thanking anyone in advance that could throw me some light (total newbie sorry!).Julie :-)

We are currently in production with K2 4.7.  I need to install and configure a new K2 5.1 development environment.  I know that we need DNS entries for K2 5.1 - but I'm not sure how many we need and what they are for.  Our current K2 4.7 environments have three DNS entries for K2 Farm, K2 Smartfarms and K2 Web components/Workspace.  Are these same three needed for K2 5.1?  If not, what are they? Thank you,Emily

Hi,We are using k2 five (5.2) FP14. After changing address in K2 Management from server name to more user-friendly address I cannot login to management, designer or workspace from that server.

I tryed to google it but didn't found an answer yet.

Hi all I'm trying to expose some data in an Advanced Smart Object. The SmartObject has multiple list methods. Is there a way to select the right list method when connecting to the OData feed from, say, PowerBI? Thanks

 Hi, we have a requirement to Implement Forms based Authentication for Specific Forms/Projects. Presently the Authentication is happening with AAD and for one of the projects we want to implement the Forms based Authentication. we have Enabled the Forms Based Authentication in K2 but that prompts a Page where the user need to select the login type, Is it possible to create/configure specific Forms with Seconday runtime with Forms Authentication 

I have a stored procedure built with optional parameters. However, when I create the SmartObject for it, it makes all the parameters required, and I can't change it. Is there a way to make some optional? The documentation here for "Use parameters for stored procedures" makes me think so....even if the value is set to 'true'.https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2cloud/userguide/current/default.htm#ServiceBrokers/SQLServer/SQL-Server-Service.htm I already have a large number of SmOs created, and changing that value to 'false' now, breaks all those existing mappings. So I don't think that option is going to be viable. I would prefer parameters to properties in this case anyway. I'm curious if anyone has found an alternative. Thanks in advance.

Hi,For once I am posting without an issue or a problem lol ... instead I am looking for generic IT advice/perspective from the community.My history is 14 yrs SharePoint, just 7 months with K2 integration and I am loving it (albeit It is having it's pain points along the way, but this forum and the support funtion is helping me through that!). But what I would like to ask, is whether to really fully utilise K2 functionality you should have Sequal knowledge and experience? ... SQL keeps coming up and I am wondring whether it's a string to my bow I should be looking to progress in?Whilst SharePoint Lists emulate a SQL database in soft terms (ie; fields, views, queries) and is built on an SQL database in itself, I realise it's not the same as I am doing this via a broswer (I actually have zero knowledge of SQL databases as you will realise lol).So if I wanted to move forward and fully utilise the K2 platform, would it be beneficial to learn SQL?... and more importantly is it that hard to l

I would to know how to configure outbound OAUTH2 for REST API. The scenario: K2 is connecting to third party REST API,  the third party REST API requires OAUTH2 with customer consent in order to access the protected resources. Flow:Customer Access the K2 App K2 App ( at middle layer - smartobject ) try to access resource via third party REST API endpoint Third party endpoint,  redirect the request to consent page (resource provider consent page) Customer allow specific resources to be accessed, then submit consent page. Third party receives customer consent, grant access and response K2 with requested information ( at middle layer - smartobject)    

In previous versions of K2 it was possible to load an HTML template in the Email wizard and the edit the raw HTML in the wizard. Is this functionality avaiable in Five? In Five, I can paste HTML into the email body but this is processed and modified by the K2 before the email is sent. This can result in an unexpected layout when the final email is viewed in Outlook Is there a workaround for this? Regards Allan
