Hi,I have been hitting a wall for few weeks now and would appreciate any idea of feasibility.I am building a high traffic workflow and would like to assign the day to day user management (high turn over) to few end users. My current idea is to build a SharePoint list containing users and roles and add these roles/AD Group into the workflow. Is that possible My second issue is that I would like to circumvent the Approval process for users added to a specific list in the Step above. I suspect that I can just run an If Statement once I am able to identify membership of that specific group in the form and use that into the workflow.Thanks,P
Hi, Can K2 developers create reports with K2 5.3? I want to know if K2 has any built-in report designer for pulling information from smartobjects as i'me evaluating products to see which is best at pulling info from completed forms etc. Thanks
Can anyone help with how to upgrade K2 Exchange Services client so it is not using legacy authentication?When we started out with K2 we were using Blackpearl 4.7 with Exchange 2013. We have since upgraded K2 to 5.2 and are using Exchange Online in K2 (our Exchange environment is hybrid Exchange 2016 and Exchange Online). Microsoft is removing support for TLS1.0 and 1.1 and we need to move towards removing any connections that are still using these protocols. Our K2 email services are coming up on the reports for TLS1.0/1.1 usage, using ExchangeServicesClient/15.00.0913.015 and I'm not sure how to upgrade K2 to use TLS1.2.

Good Morning Everyone, I have a pretty complex workflow connected to sharepoint that I does not autosave and will crash after making changes. The close is grayed out but the save button is no longer flashing. If I click on the save button it flashes for a bit then stops. The close is still grayed out. When it crashes I lose all of my changes and the website just gives me an error that the page couldn't load. The server is not giving me any log files related to this. When I reload the page I have to wait an eternity for the workflow to load if it ever does. If I clear the cache it will load the page again. Any ideas what is causing this behavior?
Hi I Created this SO but when I try to run it I get this Error Message way ?
Hello, In our environment we use Azure Active Directory, but in our case, every AAD User has empty "Email" attribute as it is tied to Exchange Online license (which currently is out of reach). Due to this, control "Originator/Manager Email" from Context Browser in workflow designing stage returns no data and we are unable to use it. Moreover, "Task" step is unable to send email notification (email recipient is not customizable in this step). We can use "Alternate email" attribute from AAD to send emails via "Send Email" step, but "Task" step just doesn't use it by default. Two questions from my side:1. Is there any way I can force K2 Workflow Email control to return data not from "AAD Email" attribute, but from "AAD Alternate email attribute"?2. Is it even possible to customize email notification in "Task" step? Changing recipient to email address is not the solution, because then email notification is being sent, but the task is not being assigned to the user in Workspace. We need bot
Hello All, I am having a bit of an issue with K2 Five for SharePoint. I was able to successfully install K2. ut when I click on "Application" option in the ribbon of a simple sharepoint list, it surprisingly redirects me to developer.amazon.com. Does any one have the same issue ? or is it just me ? if so, why amazon, very weird? Any help, greatly appreciated. version: k2 Five for SharePoint (k2 build version 5.0004.1000.1)SharePoint version: Sp2016 Feature pack 2Â
Hi... We have this customer request to show all documents from 4 sharepoint library into smartform. These shp lists are same as structure goes - they have same attributes, same site collections etc(one content type). Now we want to show all files(one input parameter - guid - custom attribute) from these lists to one list view to. Associations dont work. We have tried advanced SO but no luck with that since it wants to add service method links but there are none. Basically we want to aggregate all documents from 4 libraries to one list view on smartform. Ofcourse there is a solution to have 4 list views but this solution was rejected. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Hi, After breaking a load of inheritance in Designer to get the right structure for a different team of K2 Designers, i created a specific Category which only they can see. When they try to create a Smartobject, they get the error Authorization Failed.I could go into Smartobject Security and add the team there, but if i give them Create, update and delete, could they potentially delete or mess with other SMOs??? Is there a way of giving them SMARTOBJECT rights only on their own Category?Likewise, can this also be done to give rights to WORKFLOW creation rights on their own Category? Thanks
Hi, Anyone done this or know if its possible? Currently have an AD Group with users from different departments in, which is used as a destination in a Client Activity.So for example, a User from Dept X submits a request, i then use a Filter on the AD Group to send the request to Approvers from the same Department as the submitting user. This works fine as it is now. One of the Departments however now want the Approver to be not only from the same Department, but also from the same TEAM as the submitter.The AD membership of users in Dept X are either in Team A or Team B AD Groups. How can i make the Destination Workflow send Approvals as normal to all departments, but then for Dept X, do an additional check to see if the Submitter is a member of which Team and then send the approval to ONLY the approvers for their team? All Team A and Team B approvers will be the same AD Group as the approvers for other departments. So just one AD group, but need ability to filter on Department and Team

Hello, when editing or adding a row in an editable list my common "workflow" is to start in the first column, enter some information, press tab to go to the next column, enter again some information and so on.But when some columns are already filled, K2 does not select the content so that I can overwrite it easily. I have to select it either with my keyoard or with my mouse and then overwrite it... Is there a possibility to let it be selected as soon it gets focused? regars,Johann

Dear all If I'm using a field of data type "datefield" I can ajust the layout of the representation of the date. The default representation is the english format "m/d/yyyy". But I want to use the german format "d.m.yyyy". I can change this setting for every single field which is a bit anoying! So here are the questions:- In the "style builder" dialog there is the option to switch to "user settings". Where can I configure these user-settings?- Is there a possibility to configure this for all users in advance?- Is there a possibility to change the default setting for the date format?  P.S.: I allready found tipps regarding the web.config file. But the "executionCulture" is allready set to "de-DE" and the change of the "globalization culture" did not solve this "problem" RegardsViktor

Hi, i want to build a K2 Five Application. The application wil have a form and a driver (that will have the K2 Workspace Mobile App) will access a form and select "Start Job".The application should then track his GPS coordinates and log it to a SQL Server table every 5 minutes.The location services control has "Start Watching" and "Stop Watching" which seems like the things i want. But i am not sure to what i am limited to. Now what drawback does this have? Considerations:- The app should be able to still "watch" for location changes regardless of the driver's actions (closing the app, offline, etc)- Google Maps integration for retrieving estimated times- Google Maps integration for sending location coordinates and or address names at certain intervals If you have any suggestions, please dont hesitate to add it
Hi all,I'd like to translet K2 smartform's language depend on different county ( default language is English)How to implement this request by official solution ?Thanks a lot~
A colleague left some time ago. I discovered he'd worked on a couple of workflows, which checked them out. I had his account restored today so I could log in with that account to undo the checkout but it had been archived and the name no longer matches. There were no changes I need to keep, I just want to cancel the checkouts. I worked out how to undo a form checkout with SQL but I'm not sure how to do this for a workflow. Does anyone know?
