Hi, we actually have a environment where we dont have configured any email configuration. As I read in the setup step by step, we just have two options, SMTP server or EWS configuration (Exchange). But, in my case all our email services are online by Office 365. Any idea how can I set up this feature and enable my environment sent notification emails? RegardsAgustin
HiI have created service Instance in the target server and the System name is different from the source. Hence in the xml config file, I tried to update the Service Instance Name as below: <specificOptions><resolve name="FileSystem_Service1" namespace="urn:SourceCode/SmartObjects/ServiceInstance" action="UseExisting" targetName="FileSystem_Service2" /></specificOptions> THis gives me an error :20*personal details removed*T14:55:11.5243427Z Deploy-Package : Invalid configuration entry. The specified target item 20*personal details removed*T14:55:11.5244272Z 'FileSystem_Service1' with namespace 20*personal details removed*T14:55:11.5244592Z 'urn:SourceCode/SmartObjects/ServiceInstance' could not be found. Even though I have given the targetName, it is still looking for FileSystem_Service1 in the target server. Can you help me in letting me know how can I fix this issue?
Hi, I have a workflow designed in K2 Studio. In this worflow task comments are saved in a SQL table which has Comment ID, Form ID , Task Action , Comments, Action By and Actioned Date as fields. There is a seperate view called Task Action  in the Form where the Comments are entered by the user. The user can Approve/Reject or Update a task. If the user clicks Update button , the task is not actioned but the Comments entered by the user are saved in the workflow task comments table in SQL.   Now when the the user opens the task again to action the task , I need to show the last Updated comments in the Comments field of the task form. Appreciate if anyone can guide me on how to achieve this. Regards,RanaK
REgards to everybody. we have need help with load data body of a listdisplay control, in the image (5), the body no load/show in column "tipo de Profesional" , but in the image (6), on the row add/edit row, the data show/load, the problem happend later of apply changes in the editable list [see image (4)], the data no appear in the listdisplay. a bit of context, in the image ( no number) , we executed these rule inside of for each all items of another view, apply rule add new row to listview ("Quincenal") and make transfer data [see image (3)], so apparently the changes/add new row are not applied to the body of listdisplay of "tipo de profesional". PD: we do not use save/create in these views for best practices, so used those metods no is a option.
I have an expression that saves the value to a data label. The data label format is set up as a decimal (with 2 decimal points) since the expression is calculating a percentage. The data label shows the percentage correctly (i.e., 100.00%). However, when the data label value is saved to the SmartObject (the field is also set up as a decimal), the decimal point is not carried so the value is saved as 1.00% instead of a 100.00%. Has anyone run across this issue? Any pointers or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hi, In the now legacy K2 studio, i can do a client event, construct a Task URL and then refer to it in the body of the Text using a Hyperlink using a display name and the Task URL In the new Workflow designer, on the second tab you can enter a URL - so i construct the same URL.My URL is Server name, form name, state, formid and Serial Number In the body of the email, i use the same hyperlink function, add a display name, then in URL refer to Task-Worklist item linkHowever, when a form is submitted, the receipient email with the hyperlink comes up as :Server name, form name, sn Why isn't the state or formid appearing? It worked exactly like this in Legacy k2 studio, but not in the new workflow designer. Any ideas?
Hi, Using HTML which i inserted into the body of a Send email action in K2 Studio is not working when i copy and paste it into the new K2 Workflow Designer... The email just displays the HTMl code when received, rather than render it. I have clicked HTML View on the Workflow, saved and re-deployed, but doesn't work. Is there anything i need to do to get this to render? It works just fine in K2 Studio....
Hi, First of all I'm a complete newbie in K2 so please bear with me. I'm creating a leave request form and I would to compute the number of days between the start and end date automatically but holidays and weekends must be disregarded. I've seen a solution about creating a stored procedure but I'm trying to see if this will work. Basically, I created a smartform that list down all the dates which is the key property. I created another property with a value of either 1 for weekdays and 0 for weekends and holidays that is matched against each date. This is how it looks like after populating it.  Let's say I have a range of dates based on the user's input in the start and end date, would it be possible to extract the values under the value property that correspond to this range and add them up? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, I'm building the email body in a New Workflow Designer Email event, i am using font Arial for my text and and am using Variables and placing within my text accordingly. So i recieve the email, my text is Arial, however the Variable text is Times Roman (or different to Arial) and the size is different, why? I used the font and size changers at the top to highligh the whole text as well as trying to highlight just the variables, but it doesn't change the variables. Why are the simpliest of things not easy in K2? The more i use K2 New designer, the more i find it two steps behind the now LEGACY K2 Studio.... Thanks

Hi, We've run into this issue whilst using the Lithium theme. See the post below: https://help.k2.com/kbs100118 Our users were experiencing the close 'X' button dissapearing in both IE11 and Chrome. The IE 11 issue was at 100% zoom and only affected one user but in Chrome the X would dissapear when zooming below 100%.  After investigation I've fixed it by making the following change to the CSS. So, if you run into this issue try this fix:Edit the "Theme.css" file for the Lithium theme (and I'm assuming for any other theme where this issue is experienced) :.theme-entry .dialog .popup-header-wrapper > .wrapper > div{ position: static; right: auto; left: auto; display: inline; /* fix for disappearing X close button */ float: none; vertical-align: middle; /*override - base*/ /*override - base*/ /*override - base*/}.theme-entry .dialog.sub-view .popup-header-buttons,.theme-entry .dialog.sub-form .popup-header-buttons{ width: 72px; /* Fix for missing

Hi, I have just deployed a solution to our live environment which is quite a big solution in that it has a fair bit of logic in the forms, although the workflows I don't think aren't that complex.The issue I have is that this is the second solution I have deployed to our live enviroment and the forms TAKE AN AGE to load..... It's really bad! Before I go into doing a screen recording of how long it takes and doing endless screenshots of my forms logic, can I ask what server/disc/ram etc resources you all have in your SharePoint environment to facilitate quick load of K2 solutions in SharePoint?Thanks
I am currently recreating all of my K2 4.7 workflow in K2 5. In 4.7 when creating a user task you could set the destination rule options as "Plan per destination - All at once" and specify a single slot. Then add a destination set with mutliple K2 Roles. The effect of this is that when the activity instance was created in the workflow it would produce a single activity instance destination regardless of the numer of users/groups or roles, thus creating a single serial number that can be acted upon by numerous individuals. In K2 5.3 I am abale to find any mechinism to replicate the behavior. No matter how I configure the user activity I get multiple activity instance destinations and thus mutiple serial numbers. Having a single activity instance destination is a critical aspect of the interaction that I am using from a custom application that interacts with the K2 via the API. Is there any way to replicate the behavior and produce a single activity instance destination for multiple role

Hello Community, I have a requirement to assign tasks to multiple departments (~10) and multiple users that are assigned to those departments. I can create a loop and fire off a sub-workflow, however there is a secondary requirement for all of those departments to finish their tasks before the WF progresses.   Does anyone have any ideas around this? The only short term solution is to split, create the multiple tasks then merge. Thanks.
