Nintex Automation K2

Hi All, we are developing an application for a client (CMS) and one of the requirements is to be able to send and receive emails through the K2 Application. Sending emails is not an issue. I am not sure how to go about receiving emails in the K2 App. My idea was to use the subject to put some identifier (case ID ) to be able to figure out the link between the email and the case. I am not sure how I can retrieve and how to work with the emails. I don't have much experience in such integration. If anyone can help maybe. Thanks 

Hello,I am currently working at creating a leave request application. As my baseline I used the leave request tutorials. What i am trying to solve now is the cancellability of approved LRs. So my solution was starting a workflow and keeping it in a task enabling a manager or a user to take a "Cancel" action. The task is set to expire on LR end. But expiration doesnt seem to work. Tasks will just not expire no matter what deadline I set up. Is there some special consideration about task expiration that I am not aware of? Currently task has a cancel action and expire action. Expire action is linked to deadline and so after the deadline the system should take a user decision step "Expire". But it doesnt.Enclosed you can find screenshot of a basic idea and task deadline setup Thank you for assistance

Hi All,  How to fill in the dropdownlist from the SmartObject that has the condition?for example, SELECT * FROM table_user WHERE Role = 'admin';so all the dropdowns are users who have admin roles. Thanks,  

I have a workflow that allows users to "save" their work in case they need to look up information before submitting. This changes the Workflow Activity form "Complete Details" to "Pending". But both of these activities need to do the same actions once the Submit button is clicked. Is there a way to make the condition be "If current Workflow Activity is "Complete Details" OR if current Workflow Activity is "Pending"? When I placed two of these Conditions, it defaults to AND - which won't work for me.  I have eight Actions that occur after the Condition and I am hoping to avoid having to duplicate these all over again for the "Pending" Workflow activity. 

In the root of K2 Designer, there are lots of objects such as Boolean, Byte, Single, HttpHeader etc, how do i prevent a regular user from seeing these objects if they managed to access designer? At present a regular can edit, delete, save as and Generate views etc.I want to lock down all this so the Regular users only can execute forms, not access K2 designer and fiddle. I can add security to categories, but not items (SMOs) in the root of Designer. Is there not a simple way to prevent access to all, except administrators, but also allow everyone to execute only on forms. The documentation doesn't really explain this Thanks,   

I'm trying to create a SmartObject that will allow users to Release/Redirect their tasks from a custom dashboard. In the past, I would write a custom WCF service to handle this and wrap it in a SmartObject - I'm trying to avoid this by using some of the more out-of-box services instead. Using the "Task" SmartObject that exists under "SystemManagementUsersSmartObjects" requires that the current user be a Server Admin to release their tasks, so that is out of the question. Using the WCF services endpoint, the "Release" and "Redirect" functions there seem to try to open the work item before releasing it, and even though it is running under the context of the K2 service account it is unable to do so. I was hoping these would just administratively release the task (much like the K2 Management site does). So the question is if there is any out of the box hook that can be used to allow regular system users to release and/or redirect tasks without having to roll my own service to do so?

I am trying to apply a custom google font to specific elements on my form but so far I have had no luck.  Does anyone have any details on if and how this may be possible? My elements are set as DataLabels, so I'm unsure how to target these elements indivually without appling CSS to every DataLabel on the form.  

I need to find more information about a cancelled process, but i am not sure where to find it inside the K2 database.I have looked inside Server.ProcInst as well ServerLog.ProcInst and ServerLog.ProcInstAudit, but i simply could not find it. Can you suggest what should i do next?

Hallo there,i am trying to build a very simple solution... Customers have a Form that contains a ListView of an SQL-Smart Object.The Smart Object is based on a stored procedure which takes input parameters and resturns the list (List Method). The only problem is the amount of Data. The Table contains of 3.500000 rows when unfiltered using the mentioned parameters. This can cause timeouts when calling the list method. - What i did: - I set the Timeout in the service instance to 360 and refreshed it, recreated the smart object- I edited "C:Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlHost ServerBinK2HostServer.exe.config" and set the timeout from 30 to 360 (then i restarted K2Service)- I tried "Use Native SQL Execution" (true / false) --> which didnt really speed up either way Now i am able to get like 1.5 million rows (500 row pagination on list view) in a acceptable time (like 120 seconds).But i am not able to export to excel via "Export to Excel" method on the list view. Not even when there are
