Hi community,I wanted to test an older version of K2 Five (5.5/5.6) integrated with SharePoint online and I found out that adding "legacy" app to App Catalog doesn't work in the newly created tenant, because these add-ons are already on their way out, according to the article SharePoint Add-In retirement in Microsoft 365.Am I overlooking something, some setting that would allow me to still deploy this, or am I just out of luck, the old legacy app will no longer test?If I want to test migrating from the legacy app to the new SPFx in the future, do I need to find any old tenant created before 11/2024? By the way, is there any news on how this can be done?Thanks in advance for your opinions.Pa--
Hi. Having difficulty binding to LDAP if the account used is not on the target domain controller. we’ve discovered that it’s not making use of AuthenticationTypes Enum (System.DirectoryServices) | Microsoft LearnIs it possible for K2 Nintex v5.6 application to specify the AuthenticationTypes as I’ve tested that I’m able to bind when AuthenticationTypes is configured.
We have the following setup: ✅ Okta is used for authentication, but it supports only the Authorization Code flow (we do not have Client Credentials flow enabled). ✅ For machine-to-machine authentication, we are using AWS Cognito. Here are our questions:1. How can we start a K2 workflow on an event? The event might be: Headless (no user context) Or triggered by a user based on certain conditions by external system or nintex 🔍 How should we authenticate these requests securely in both cases (Okta /Cognito)? ✅ Which OAuth flow is recommended for headless service calls? 2. How can we make secure outbound API calls from SmartObjects? Some API calls are triggered by SmartObjects that are: Invoked headlessly Or invoked as part of a user action 🔍 How do we securely authenticate those outbound calls, especially when tokens must reflect a user’s identity? 🔒 Is there a way to pass the user's identity token in SmartObject calls? 3. How can we update a workflow step f
I have a custom .NET project that references some DLLs. Recently, I've been encountering the following error: "Invalid archive type" when executing OpenWorklist() using SourceCode.Workflow.Client.dll. The issue is that it works fine on other PCs, but not on mine. After researching online, I found suggestions that the issue could be a bit-version mismatch between the DLLs. To resolve this, I upgraded the K2 version on the server from 5.6 to 5.8 and copied the new DLLs into the project, but it still isn't working. The project works fine on every other PC except mine, and I can't figure out what the issue is.
Hi I’ve tried to set folio for parallel path task. Refer below:I have two path, one is Technical, one is Marketing. Both uses different variable as stated above. However, when i open the worklist item from email, the two task shows same Folio (All referred to Technical). How should i correct this so that the Assessment IOC Marketing’s Folio refers to as Marketing instead of Technical?
Hi, I’ve been trying to capture information from an approval task form but have been unsuccessful. The task follows a multi-level approval process:The Originator fills in Section A and Section C. Once submitted, it is routed to the Supervisor for approval or rework (if necessary). If approved, it will be routed to the next PIC to fill in Section B.In the Originator's first submission, the worklist item correctly displays the data entered. During the first level of approval, the Supervisor may approve or request rework. If rework is needed, the Supervisor is required to add remarks before submitting. After this, it is routed back to the Originator (if rework was required), or to the next PIC (if approved).Data is being captured as well for rework remark. However, during the submission by the PIC, data entered in Section B is not captured in a specific table view, even though it is supposed to be displayed.I have adjusted the rules several times, but the information from Section B still
Hi,I have a SharePoint List that I created a K2 Application (with Views and Forms) from. This List has an ImageURL column/field that I would like to use to reference to display an image that’s also stored on SharePoint, but I can’t seem to find the property or control to help me do that.I saw this older thread, but it talks about using an Image control -- which has an Image URL property. This is exactly what I’m looking for, but… I don’t see an Image control in my toolbox; only a Picture control. That control has no such “Image URL” property and only seems to be able to upload an image directly. What would be the recommended way to display an image stored on SharePoint in a Nintex K2 View? Thank you!
Hi,I am using Nintex K2 Cloud.I have configured a Smartobject that takes 3 inputs and added it as one of the available Smartobjects on the Smartobject OData api page.The Smartobject uses a SQL server stored procedure to save data to a table. It has 3 parameters JSON nvarchar(max), filename nvarchar(200) and base64file nvarchar(max).The nvarchar(max) fields are configured as Memo in the smart object. The base64file value is a file that has been base 64 encoded.When testing the OData endpoint from postman it works perfectly when I use an encoded 400kb file, but I get an error when using an 840kb file : { "error": { "code": "", "message": "Error reading HTTP body." }}The 840kb file is 1.1mb when it is base 64 encoded.I suspect that there is a post size limit configured for the K2 OData implementation but I can find no documentation as to what that might be. From what I can find on the internet I can see that OData services typically have a limit of somewhere between 2

For a fresh installation of K2 5.8 on prem. with a SharePoint online we saw that the workflows associated to a document libraries cannot be started manually.The manual workflows are working instead for the lists.For the document libraries the workflows are working for the other triggers like create/update item.Why this behaviour?Thank you
Hello, I´m having issue with our installation of K2 BlackPearl (v. 4.6.11) + Onprem SP2013. Certificate has expired 24.02.2025 and its not possible to open forms on Sharepoint anymore. I have tried following: Modify K2 Blackpearl installation – no luck, certificate is in those steps being generated, but again with same validity (so its already expired). Use different certificate from my PKI – I have changed thumbprint in K2HostServer.exe.config file, but without any luck. Im still getting errors on SP: Can anyone please help me with this issue? Thanks
Hi,There is an issue flagged by a customer. “Users can upload any file type by bypassing the Attachment Control. This issue has been flagged by our Information Security Team.”
I have created a K2 form that allows users to upload up to 10 attachments. Upon submission, these attachments are saved to a SharePoint library using the UploadDocuments method of the SmartObject.During the upload process, I check if each attachment control contains a file and then call the UploadDocuments function accordingly. This process is repeated for all ten attachments.Now, I need to handle the scenario where a user opens the form in edit mode and wants to update the attachments.My Attempt:I tried detecting changes using the rule "When a control in the view raises an action", but this event is triggered as soon as the form retrieves the attachments from SharePoint.My Question:What is the correct approach to updating attachments in the SharePoint library when the form is in edit mode? Do I need to delete all existing attachments and re-upload them each time the form is edited, or is there a more efficient method to detect and update only the changed files?Any guidance or best pra

As part of a database migration, I’ve created a new Service Instance to connect an existing form to a new server. The service account has been created and given full permissions. The connection is active, and the form can write to and read from the database. However, when attempting to execute the List method, the below error occurs:Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'. What is the cause of this and how can it be resolved?
