Incorrect task status shown for other destination users whenever one user opened the task.

A task is assigned to multiple users, but not all users are required to action the task. When one of the users open the task, the users that opened the task have their task status changed to 'Open', and the other users should have their task's status changed to 'Allocated.' But it is not happening in K2 5.3. Even if one of the users open the task, the user who opened the task have their status chnaged to 'Open' and other users have their task status chnaged to 'Available' Is there any settings or why the status is not changed to 'Allocated' in K2 5.3?

Using referenced .NET dlls together with custom dll in k2 smartforms

Hey everyone.I have 2 dlls, one I created and one referenced. I created the .NET class library using visual studio. C# and nuget , Now I want to use the same .NET library. In a k2 workflow. Now here is the worry. I used a Microsoft interop from Nuget which makes it 2 dlls in this case.I can register the dll (my own I created in visual studio) and use as a smartobject. Now if we can remember, the other dll (Microsoft interop) is used as a reference to my own main class library.Question is, how can I add Nuget libraries so that my own dlls can out rightly reference it before I convert to smartobjects.

Is it possible to plot GoogleMaps with Multiple Locations...

I like to plot Multiple Location in Google Maps. however encounter some issues... Seems like K2 Does not seem to render JavaScript Code with a Data Label on Literal..And does not seem to be able to build the Map. almost looks like Java Script is not loading...https://agilestorelocator.com/blog/multiple-markers-google-map-v3-api-wordpress-tutorial/https://www.taniarascia.com/google-maps-apis-for-multiple-locations/https://www.tutsmake.com/add-show-multiple-markers-pins-on-google-map/https://medium.com/@limichelle21/integrating-google-maps-api-for-multiple-locations-a4329517977ahttp://flowfactory.fr/blog/en/2019/07/16/integrate-a-map-to-locate-an-address-into-a-k2-smartforms/The only thing that works is IFrame.. however does not seem to be possible to append more locations to an IFrame feed from a SMO. As another alternative was thinking if there is a way to have some JQuery or JS Function that actually modify the DOM in the Iframe and inject the Additional Locations to the Embed Solutio

K2 Workspace App - Android 9 (Mobile)

Hi, Has anyone on the community been able to run the K2 Workspace app on an Android 9 mobile device? Our K2 site is configured for HTTPS Binding only. However the app insists on opening Task Forms and Application Forms as HTTP (not sure where it is getting the Runtime URL from, as it's correct in K2 Management). HTTP runtime url on our mobile devices is unacceptable. Android 9 by default blocks data transfer over HTTP. I'm aware that there may be alternative mobile apps on the market (i.e. Indocs Business Apps). Has anyone used any alternative apps and had better luck?  Thanks,Conrad

Looking for best practice on server rights for Service Accounts

Hi,I haven't been able to find the answer [1,2] as to what "server rights" do service accounts need to have. I'm talking about IIS APPPOOL and K2 SERVICE ACCOUNT and the Admin, Impersonate and Export server rights.  What's the best practice in relation to service accounts rights within the K2 environment? do they need to have any server rights at all? If they do need server rights what scenarios are applicable? Thank you,Eduardo [1] Server Rights https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/userguide/5.0/default.htm#K2_Management_Site/Workflow_Server/Server-Rights.htm[2] Server Rights Required by K2 blackpearl Accounts https://help.k2.com/kb000199

Min / Max validation for number/decimal input

I need to validate a decimal input. I'm wondering how I can use view validation to require and ensure the value is > 12. How do I do this? This seems like an basic, foundational capability, but I don't see how to do it. I can write a rule or expression, but that seems combersome for such a thing. Does anyone have any suggestions?
