Nintex Automation K2

Thanks in advance for any help you can provice.This is K2 5.3 and Smart forms.I have a form requesting a credit card. The submitter must fill out a lot of personal info and then click a button to read the credit card agreement which they must accept or decline. Clicking the read button calls the Save rule where I usually start my workflow and action workflow tasks. In the workflow I have the first client task of Submitter Acceptance (Accept or Decline). I want to show these choices in a ddlist so they can pick one before submit is clicked. In other words I don’t want to have to submit a request to the workflow without a decision selected first. I attached a picture of  my save rule. Apparently The form parameter RequestID is specified. But it seems without some event like submit the SN number and the task actions wont be generated. Is there a workflow rule or some other way around this? 

How to use Asynchronous event in K2 Five? or any other similar approach to achieve it ?

K2 Five (5.2) supports inbound OAuth as in  this means 'incoming' integration where third-party systems need to interact with K2 APIs. Examples include custom applications that need to start workflows, retrieve and complete workflow tasks, or execute SmartObject methods via K2 APIs. In this scenario, the bearer token is verified and used by K2 to authorize the incoming request. These incoming tokens are not cached by K2. This article describes how to set up and use inbound OAuth I am not sure I understand which OAuth flow (aka grant type) this refers to - the authorization code grant type allows an end user's browser to redirect to the identity provider (e.g. Azure AD, Okta, etc.) to basically exchange the OAuth authorization code for an access token.  All the K2 documentation seems to assume a) Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD) identity provider and b) Smartforms instead of a custom UI  But the client credentials grant type allows for server-to-server integration to support, for

Hi, I’m having trouble on how to permanently fix this problem. In my workflow i used a smartobject to create references to be used on an approval system. In k2 Designer, i set the task user to username in the references, picture below:Correct Mappingafter that then i deploy the workflow to test it. However what happened is that it uses a different mapping than what it supposed to be. picture below:Wrong mapping in Running Processthis is the JSON data that is returned: [ { "Username": "jarjit", "ApprovalNo": 0, "Nik": "2024", "FullName": "Jarjit", "Email": "jarjit@gmail.co.id", "PositionCode": "TRBA1", "PositionName": "FINANCE PAYMENT UNIT HEAD", "BranchCode": "00", "BranchName": "HO", "companyCode": "FNCE", "menuCode": "CMT1124", "paramDateExp": 72 }] It used the positionCode data instead of username. Is there any solution / fix for this particular problem?

Hi,This is more of a developer question who has worked on custom broker libraries using c#.I am trying to get list of all generated smartobjects and their properties for a service instance.Is there an api in K2 Five Developer Ref library, that can return list of reference for all smartobjects given a service instance name? I found this public SmartObjectInfo GetGeneratedSmartObject( Guid serviceInstanceGuid, string serviceObjectName )but it needs a serviceinstance GUID as well along with the name.A front end user will not have the guid , he will just have the name of service instance.Does anyone know of any other api or can guide me how to achieve this? Thanks

Hi,I used Loop in workflow and the Loop Item gives concatenated values. The table used to fetch values has a Primary Key and I used same field as Identifier. If the table has 10 records, the loop will run 10 times but the loop item reference will have all 10 records concatenated.The K2 version I am using is 5.0, I have tried Loop in version 5.3 and it worked fine. Is there any reason why it does not work for version 5.0

Hello,I have a K2 5.2 install in which I have registered a custom font for use in a Smart Form which displays properly on the form in the web browser. When I call the “Save PDF” method of the Save as PDF Control, the saved PDF reverts the custom font to another default font.The form logic doesn’t lend itself well to calling the form from a URL passed to the “Create PDF From URL method”. I’ve already tried that as a workaround.Is there another DLL that i can call to register the custom font with the PDF engine? Thank you for your feedback,Andrew

Any hints on how I can add a line break in a workflow variable?   In essence, I’m using workflow to send a text message using an API, and I’d like to put a line break in between a couple of the data elements.  For some reason, I thought there was a line break you could drag up from the TEXT operators, but now I’m not seeing it.   Anyway, any help is always appreciated. 

While changing K2 dropdown option ,I wants to perform some operations with Old value. But in k2 rules we are not able to capture that value. Because K2 has only changed rule.Example:Dropdown values : “one” , “two” , “three”If I change the dropdown value from “one” to “two” then I wants to trigger a button  click event from JavaScript so that will call some K2 rules  once that's done then the dropdown can change to “two”.Please help.

See the attached screen shot. This was working this morning and all I did was create an a datafield to hold the telephone number and an expression to remove the dashes and replaced the output data for the telephone text box with the new datafield to show the telephone number without any dashes. Now I get this: This was not showing yesterday and this morning before I made the telephone change (which does not work by the way).I undid the telephone rules and it still occurs. Cleared my cache and reopened the designer and it still occurs.
