Nintex Automation K2

Hi All, I have a requirement where user want to approve a task through email in a single click. After some struggle, we implement a hyperlink inside the task email which will open a new email in browser as well as email client. The href sytax was given like below <ahref="mailto: <Address>?subject=<subbject>&body=Approve <SerialNo>">Approve</a> where <SerialNo> will be coming as SN=<number>. Link is working in Desktop browsr but it is not working in gmail client in iphone.  When we click on Approve hyperlink in iphone gmail client then it will open a new email and body will have content only till SN. I believe email client is not able to recognize the "=" symbol after SN as part of the body, instead it is looking for an attribute.  Due to this I am not able to approve the task from iphone. Any idea how to solve this  

Hi, A dedicated server has been installed for K2 Five development (since the current 4.7 server does not comply with the hardware requirements for 5.3). This is to prepare us from migrating 4.7 to 5.3.  Since you cannot deploy packages in 4.7 to 5.3, how can I create a new package using the 5.3 version? I am trying to add the server in the K2 Package and Deployment but it comes up with an error (please see attached screenshot). Thanks and Kind Regards,Joan

Hi, We use the the SharePoint "Site - Management - Group" Smartobject to verify if users are in this group when a form loads and it works fine if I have added myself to the SharePoint group as a direct entry against my AD account "Julie Bird". However, in our organisation we permission all of our sharepoint groups with a cooresponding AD group that has been created for each role (makes permissining maintanence free when people move between roles a lot). Therefore I would add the AD Role User ... ie "SP Coordintaor" to the Sharepoint group instead of myself directlty (of  which julie bird is a member of). However, I can't find a smart object method that will recognise me when I use the AD Role User, it will only recognise me if I add my 'Julie bird' AD role. Any help or suggestions? We really don't want to have to go back to adding individuals into all processes across SharePoint, Thanks, Julie :-)

I would like to upload multiple attachments for a sharepoint list, when the form is customized in K2. Please provide me the suggestions for ex: We have repeater control in infopath to attach/add multiple items/documents to upload/insert in the form, in the same way do we have a provision to upload multiple attachements.

Hi everyone, We have a K2 workflow(.kprx) which is quite complex and due to many changes over the years, it has become messy. I was wondering if there is a way to prettify/beautify it automatically so that the activities fall in some sort of a sequence making it a little more readable. Thanks,Aman

Hi all, I was trying to create a package using package and deploy tool and getting below error. My environment has a single standalone server.

I have a workflow which has a functionality to send emails using a Email task . But tehe emails are dynamically constructed using string concatenations. I found that this email task (in teh workflow) is pretty un-forgiving and brutal .  What I found was that :1. if the email string has more than one semi colon it failsexample : *personal details removed*;;*personal details removed* - This string if passed in the CC of the workflow notification the email task will fail at run time2. if the email string end with semi colon (string has a semi-colon at teh end)  it failsexample : *personal details removed*;*personal details removed*;  - This string if passed in the CC of the workflow notification the email task will fail at run timeIs this the behaviour observed by anyone else? Is there any best practice to achive this instead of writing ridiculous experssions to handle these conditions? Any help is appreciated.

(Or any other User I choose)It looks so goodBut,There is a red button in the upper right named "Close" - nothing happens when I click on it.It is subordinate to which user I choose as Author, the result is the same.I can only get back to the article by using the browser's 'back' button.When I return to the article, no Author has been added.I use:Joomla v. 3.9.11K2 v. 2.9.1What can I do to solve the problem?Preferably an easy way since I'm not a programmer.Thanks in advance :-)

We are migrating workflows from 4.7 to 5 and have workflows that had "Escalation" configured in Smartforms client event. On migration, escaltion rules were converted to reminder mails.I have configured the reminder mails correctly but on deploying the workflow, the following error is displayed:"The escaltion has no rule configured"

Hi,I am trying to create a CRUD workflow using K2 and SAP. On SAP side we have exposed the functionality as OData service. I followed the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFjfS65CO1E and set up the OData Service broker as Service instance in K2. The SmartObject generated lists all the CRUD operations and the list function executes without any issues. The other operations create/update/delete fail with a message - CSRF token validation failed.As per the article - https://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp12/helpdata/en/e6/cae27d5e8d4996add4067280c8714e/frameset.htmthe list function which is a non-modifying request sends a request header property x-csrf-token=fetch and retrieves a CSRF token. This token should be then used as request header property for the modifying requests. How can I set this up ? I have not found much information on CRUD operations for K2 + SAP using OData so any help is much appreciated.

If yes, please list the steps to achieve this scenario. Thanks in advance. Regards,Samy

Having problems with conditional styling on a choice control being populated by a K2 SmartObject with data. 2 Choice Controls on the page (one set as a Checkbox / one set as a DropDown) --  primarily needed so we can get the data to save as a deliminated value instead of the checkbox value of the (<condition>.......</condition)Have a need to pull a 'read only' label with the Deliminated values listed as a list instead of a line and instead of showing the controls.  (In Active Options would not show if saved in the past) The choice control appears to be the only control that saves as a delimited value.Problem is that we can't get it to set the text as red if it's empty. No problem on standard Radio Button Controls / check box controls. I've tried Is Empty / Contrains / Not EqualAlso tried using just 1 Choice Control and setting the properties on form load to the check boxes / radio buttons dynamically as well as the answers.  Still can't get it to turn the text red.  Borders wo

We're looking to make access to one of our SmartForms seemless by surfacing the SmartForm through a SharePoint Online page. I've used iFrame successfully in the past with SharePoint, but when I try it with a K2 URL it appears to just display a blank white space. Is this something that is possible, if so, how is best to go about doing it? Thanks

Hello, what is your best  practice for installing fix packs?We do this installations very seldom because internally we believe that we need to test "everything" before using them in a productive stage.So in general we must find a time window when we have enough time without deploying any changes. Then we install the FP into our DEV system and test on our own (mostly the designer tools). Then we install it in our QA system and letting our users to test all their solutions. Parallel we do some PnD tests. If everything works OK, we will update our PROD system.The whole process is long and weary because you have to wait for all users to give their OK. During that time we cannot do any changes because the PnD process only works with the same versions in all stages... (or at least that's what we believe :-)) Now currently we have some problems that according to K2 is solved in the current FPs but we cannot speed up our "update process"... How do other users handle these problems? Do you just

I have been trying to create a Composite SmartObject that includes the Azure AD User SmartObject with the List method.On the original SmartObject I save the "name" property of the currently logged in user, but when I create a Composite SmartObject that uses that property as the imput to the Azure AD User Object I cannot get the display name or any other properties of the user. Has anyone created something like this utilizing Azure AD before? I can get the load method to work since its a one-one relationship, but the list method I'm strugglign with. I have tried the Service Method link binding the Name propert to the UPN property of Azure AD but I cannot get it to work.Does anyone have any examples?
