Custom User Filter for all users

Hi,I have configured a user filter in a list view and it’s called “Open Items”.So basically in runtime , I would have  2 options to select : “Default Filter” or “Open Items” from the list view.  My question: Is there an option to enable this filter for all users or condition based visibility? Thanks,Ramya

Pause workflow and wait for duration but continue if incoming HTTP request wakes up workflow

I’m very new to Nintex K2, I also am not that familiar with the particulars of the different Nintex offerings, so I may be using incorrect technology or terminology here so Ill describe my use case as best as possible.I am trying to build a workflow which includes a pause/sleep task to pause the execution of that workflow and I want it to be awoken/resumed by an external service making an HTTP call to it. I’m using the workflow cloud automation platform, is this possible and if so could you point me in the direction of any examples of how this is done? Edit: On some pages I can see references to a task called ‘Wait on external system’ although I dont see any examples of this in the cloud designer.https://help.nintex.com/en-US/k2cloud/userguide/current/Content/How-Tos/WaitExternal/Wait-External-System.htm

Default checkbox to true

I have a choice control in my SmartForm that is setup as a checkbox. The options are Oil and Gas. I want to default them to be checked (i.e. true). How do you set this up? There is a configuration option for Default value with 2 options - None and IsDefault. Change it from None to IsDefault doesn’t do anything. How can I default both boxes to be checked? Thanks in advance. Please note, my control is connected to a SmartObject and is not static. My initial efforts at trying to find a solution to this indicated that i needed to create one to two more views, and that seems like overkill to set a value to true. It also seemed like I could only check one of the two boxes by default and not both.

Transfer Data Label value from Form to Variables in workflow

Hello There! I need to transfer data label value from Form to variable in the workflow, I used two different form in this workflow (Submit Form & Review Form), So I transferred data from the submitted form successfully by using (On submitted button clicked) rule > then use (start a workflow) rule inside it and pass the value by (workflow fields) as shown here. But the problem is when I need to transfer data from (Review Form) to the workflow and since I cannot use (start a workflow) rule I tried to use (Action a worklist item) rule to transfer the data to the workflow as shown here. the data did not transfer to the workflow because I always get (Not Cancel) Action in the workflow which means the variable here is empty.I’m pretty sure that the data label in (Review Form) contains value and it’s not empty. I hope to find someone who can help me find a solution to my problem.Many Thanks.

calculate the 25th day of every month based on the current date

I have to calculate the 25th day of every month based on the current date, with the following requirements: If the current date is on or after the 25th day of the month, then return the 25th day of the current month. If the current date is before the 25th day of the month, then return the 25th day of the previous month. I am looking for an expression that dynamically calculates and returns the date, ensuring it always falls on the 25th day based on the current date.So I have to get the 25th of every month based on current date in the From date calendar control.Trying to achieve it through expressions.Please let me know if you ahve any other approach for it.

How to control inheritance and permissions on a SharePoint sub folder using a smartobject method?

I have a SharePoint Library that I am using for document storage in my K2 Cloud project. One of the things I want to do is have different permissions on each sub folder and have K2 set these permissions.I can do this for individual documents using the following SmartObject methods:“Stop Inheriting Permissions on Document By ID” then “Add User or Group Permissions to Document By ID”There doesn’t seem to be the equivelent function for a folder or a way to use the above function on a folder because I can’t get an ID for the folder itself.There are plenty of SmartObject functions that can alter permissions on the SharePoint object but all require a Document ID which I don’t seem to be able to get for the folder itself. The functionality exists in SharePoint to set these permissions so I’m worried that this has simply been omitted from the API?Does anyone know of a method to do this?

Audit data for redirects and out of office

Nintex K2 Five: Our end user set himself out of the office and redirected all tasks to the person he designated. However, the workflow ended up with a different person. I'm not sure how it ended up with a different person or if the out-of-office person was set incorrectly. The question is, is there a way to see how the workflow was redirected to the wrong person or even to access data audit for that redirection setup?

Adding another reference to and existing workflow?

I have a form that has two views on it.  They are using the same smartobject for 2 different types of records.  When I insert a record from each view, the workflow will not pick up both records because only 1 of the views is referenced on the workflow.  Can I add another reference for the second view after the workflow has already been created so that the flow can pick up the other records?

Sorting for / view rules in the designer.

Are you as perplexed as me as to why the rules for forms and views are still not sorted alphabetically in the rules designer (see also Service Instance definitions when creating SmartObject methods), do you get fed up hunting for the rules constantly?When you have the form / view open in the K2 designer, press F12 for the browser developer tools, paste the below code in to the console and hit return.$('#pgRuleList').find('.toolbar-wrapper').append('<div class="toolbar-divider" id=""></div><a href="javascript:;" onclick="(function (){ const rules = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(\'.input-control-group\')); rules.forEach(ul => { const rule = Array.from(ul.querySelectorAll(\'li\')); rule.sort((a, b) => { const textA = a.textContent.trim(); const textB = b.textContent.trim(); return textA.localeCompare(textB); }); ul.innerHTML = \'\'; rule.forEach(li => ul.appendChild(li));});})();" tabindex="0" class="toolbar-button filter" id="pgSortRules" title="Sort Rules"

K2 Designer : Unable to deploy a workflow that contains a sub-workflow

Hello all, recently we had a ‘show stopper’ issue with the K2 designer, the issue was that we are no longer able to deploy any workflow that contains a sub-workflow, we already deployed many workflows that contain a sub-workflow in the past, the issue now that we need to edit some of these workflows but whenever we finish our edits we are unable to deploy the workflow, this issue is not just for a specific workflow but for the entire workspace I did create a separate workflow just to reproduce the issue, I created two workflows from scratch and (Testwf1, Testwf2) I tried to call ‘Testwf1’ as a sub workflow from ‘Testwf2’ but whenever I add this step it give an error, if I removed the “Call Sub Workflow - Testwf1” step, ‘Testwf2’ deploy successfully. we already tried to delete the step and re-drop it, changing the names, the variables,we made sure that the server that the K2 is on has the latest updates, and also the K2 has the latest fixes, updates, do note that this issue is new to us

Create SQL Table for a SmartObject with Attachment

I create a table in SQL database. This table will be generated to a SmartObject by SQL service instance. I generate the SmartObject through Service Instances.    I find that in the SmartObject created, the field Attachment is of Memo type. Because of this, the attachment field is not loaded properly in the form. (A string instead of a file) I finally change the data type of Attachment from Memo to File. Then the attachment can be saved properly.  But for the old data, the database saved the attachment in the wrong way and now the file cannot be downloaded.    Is this because I set the datatype incorrectly in the SQL table? Is it required that I need to manually change the data type from Memo to File?
