After going to the K2 4.6.11 to K2 4.7 and K2 Five we noticed the IIS Application Pool shutdown every night including the web applications. So far has been very frustrating... is K2 or is IIS ???. after troubleshooting K2 point to Microsoft IIS. To make things more complicated we are running Rapid7 agent and security scans which flood the IIS Logs with scans. with the idea of troubleshooting we managed to enable TCP/Wrapper Security in IIS. and black list the IP's of the Rapid 7 scanners. however that did not fixed the issue. [ Web Server -> Security -> IP And Domains Restrictions ] Today another K2  Developer point out this link:https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213917405-Application-pool-stops-randomly-within-in-a-specified-time-period-automatically-disabled-due-to-a-series-of-failures Not sure if this is going to be the solution to our issues, but wondering if somebody have similar experiences and wanted to share some alternatives/workarounds. I hope this is the solu

Hello, I probably shouldn't put this post here, but as you're the experts, I thought it best! We are decomissioning our K2 environment in the not-to-distant future, but we have many forms stored within K2 that have attachments. I suspect these old forms are needed from an auditing perspective, and just wondering if there is any way to extract the information or convert it into a PDF somehow?  Ideally, it would have all the content displayed which is presented in one of the views. Preferably a method to get the attachments, too! Appreciate any guidance or assistance you can offer. Many thanks,Dayna

I Have a workflow that gets PDF from file server (Custom Smart Object) and then send email (via task) with attached file from the PDF SmartObject. (attachment 1). However the larger the file size the longer it takes time for it to complete (10MB PDF takes 5 minutes to complete).So I want to make it so that the SMO won't go to the next activity until it finished executed properly, but instead of waiting it just go to the next activity which caused the email cannot send and attach the file to it. (attachment 2). From what i know this is possible by using "Wait for External System" on smart object and then finish it by executing the server event finish in REST API of K2. However in my case, there's no trigger or some sort so server event is not an option. Is there any solution for this?

I am converting an ASP.Net site from Windows Authentication to OWIN / Cookie / Claims based authentication. We are using K2 5.2 version of the SourceCode.Workflow.Client (and all the other) dlls to make a connection to K2. I am making the connection using a connection string *with a user name / password* - i.e. I am NOT trying to do a kerberos style connection to K2.I have my app all set with all of the OWIN dlls, and a "startup" function, and fully anonymous authentication and my call to: var connection = new Connection();connection.Open(Config.K2.ServerName, Config.K2.K2AdminConnectionString);...works fine.As soon as I add the code to actually authenticate (with a 3rd party provider), my HttpContext.Current.User changes from a WindowsPrincipal to a ClaimsPrincipal, and at this point, the connection to K2 fails with the error:Value cannot be null. Parameter name: BootstrapContextStack Trace:at SourceCode.Workflow.Client.InternalConnection.Call(ArchiveX ar, MessageType msgtype)at Sourc

End user needs to redirect the worklists to a different user - what rights are required to be given to the end user?The end user is a workflow admin , but what I observered is that if the end user is not given workflow server admin rights , he/she cannot redirect the worklistss. Is this true? what is the best way to have a end user redirect tasks in terms of providing minimum permissions? Obviously , it is not a  good idea to provide end users access to workflow server adin. Workflow server admin has 3 permissions  - Admin , Export and Impesonate. To be able to "Redirect" does a user need "Admin" permission?  Any help is highly appreciated. ThanksNag

Is there any way in k2 five to select multiple tasks and forword them. User left the company and I have 30 plus task to forword to new user. Before K2 five we were able to select and forword multiple tasks at a time.

I realize that RDS isn't supported by K2, but I'd be very grateful if anyone can share any real experiences connecting to RDS. We don't want to use it for our K2 database, but some of the systems we integrate with want to move to RDS. Here is what I've found with my initial attempts. I connected to an RDS database and used the SMO tester: I can call create, list, and delete on SMOs that are directly against tables I was able to call a database view and view results. I called 2 stored procs. One of them returned data and one didn't. I can't tell why the one didn't.Any experiences with RDS would be very helpful to me.

Hi Mates,We had a cloud environment configured for our client.  we are using the K2 Dev integration account to authenticate with K2. To test the workflow Rest api. I had used the postman. In Postman we are trying to retrieve the list of all workflows. Using my id it's working fine. but when I used K2 Dev integration account (*personal details removed*). I am getting below error "Message": "Authorization has been denied for this request.".I am using the Basic Authentication mode to call the workflow API from Postman. will it work? K2 Dev integration account has global administrator permission on AAD. I have granted Admin, Export & impersonate rights server rights to this account.  Can you please let me know what permission is required? how it can be works

Hi All,I have an AD group in one of the K2 roles and mails are not triggered to the group members as part of mail event.However, individual users who are part of these K2 roles are getting the mails.I have observed that when I add an AD group to a K2 role, its display name is coming as account name, where as when I add a user, email is coming as account name. K2 is considering this account name to send mails and this is why mails are triggered to the users and to the AD groups.Thanks,Pradeep

Hi, Are there any provisions, where we can provide Read only access in management page to developers so that they can track instances in PROD without being able to do other admin functions? Thanks,Anand V

Is there a way to easily print a workflow view for business users? I'd rather not have to recreate a visio diagram for them to see their process, if possible. Thanks.

Hi Team,I would like to expose the error profile instances out of K2 to another system using REST API. How we can achieve this in K2 Cloud.  

Hi I have K2 Roles that we use to easily manage the Users in the application. I have added AD Groups to these roles rather than to add a bunch load of users manually. Now, i send out Tasks as well as Emails to these roles by using the Role or "Get Role Users" respectivly to actually get these out to the users. Firstly , Tasks are not assigned to Users in AD Groups (it does send out to indivual users)Secondly, When Executing the User Role or URM User Smart Objects, i do not get the users that are in these AD Groups. However, in some situations SOME AD Users from the AD Groups will show up in the  URM User. Is there a setting perhaps on the K2 Five Server that allows these AD Group Users to be resolved? Am i Missing something? I have found this:   Please Advise
