Does anyone have instructions on loading a dropdown or auto complete field in a view with all the users from a specific group on a SharePoint site? I'm not making any sense of the documentation I can find. i.e. https://community.k2.com/t5/K2-Blackpearl-Forum-Posts/Binding-the-users-from-a-sharepoint-group-to-a-drop-down-in-K2/td-p/84402 just gives me a 404 response when attempting to find the group.

Hi,


 


Perhaps you can make use of the Management_Group SmartObject. This system SmartObject does have its limiation as it's not designing to return users for a nested group. If there is an AD group inside a SharePoint group, this will not work.


 


1. Add Management_Group SmartObject as the data source for the dropdown control.


 2.  Map the SharePoint group name to the Tile field.
