Hi Team,I enabled the Workflow and SmartObject API in the k2 management. K2 is hosted in the Windows 2025 VM and installed version is K2 Five 5.8 . I am able to connect to the API while i am debugging the application locally. I am not able to connect to the API while deployed to my QA Environment.I validated in the K2 server registry TLS 1.2 is enabled. In the .net framework code i am taking care of the TLS 1.2 protocolforeach (SecurityProtocolType protocol in Enum.GetValues(typeof(SecurityProtocolType))) { if (protocol.GetHashCode() == 3072) { platformSupportsTls12 = true; } } // enable Tls12, if possible if (!ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol.HasFlag((SecurityProtocolType)3072)) { if (platformSupportsTls12) { //Console.WriteLine("Platform supports Tls12, but it is not enabled. Enabling it now.");

Hello K2 Community,I'm currently migrating workflows from K2 BlackPearl 4.7 to K2 Five 5.8 and need guidance on updating a specific workflow pattern in K2 Designer.Current Implementation (BlackPearl 4.7):Our existing workflow uses the following pattern:Invokes a Code Reference Event to execute custom logic Loads the returned data into an HTML-formatted variable Passes that HTML variable to an Email Event for deliveryMigration Challenge:I'm new to both K2 BlackPearl and K2 Five, and I'm not sure how to replicate this pattern in K2 Five 5.8's Designer. Specifically:What's the recommended approach for Code Reference Events in K2 Five? Are there any breaking changes or differences in how data is handled between the two versions? What's the best practice for building dynamic HTML content in K2 Five before sending emails?I've attached the relevant workflow snippets from our BlackPearl implementation for reference.Thank you for any guidance!
This should be really simple:I’m starting my workflow with a form. The form has a “File Upload” control, for the user to upload an Excel file. I save it to form variable “Excel file”, and click [Submit] Next, I call SharePoint Online, Store a File. For SPO.Store a file “Source file”, I HOPED I could just use “Start event > Form variables > Excel file”.PROBLEM:No such luck.SPO.Source file wants a Nintex “File” object; Form variables.Excel file is a Nintex “Collection object”, and I can’t see any way to copy the upoaded Excel file to SharePoint Online: Q: What should I do to copy an Excel file from Nintex workflow to SharePoint?
I have a workflow that allows a customer (external of the tenant) to request a credit application in order to open a credit account with my company. When the customer fills the request, they are required to sign using the “Signature” field in the form. However, we would like the signature to be certified.Can the customer’s signature be certified — for example, through a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) generated using a secure device (such as a cryptographic key, smart card, token, or qualified cloud-based solution)?Are any of these solutions can help me and how: Nintex eSign, DocuSign, AdobeSign ???

Hi there, Is it possible to have a link to the “create a process” page in Process Manager? We are creating a Process Manager landing page in our Sharepoint and want to have a quick link button to create a process. Thanks
I’m developing a relatively “complex” Kryon solution where a top-level wizard calls multiple embedded wizards and global functions, many of which themselves call nested embedded wizards.It’d like to be able to “throw an exception” that will handle the error and gracefully terminate the solution.Q: How can I achieve this in Kryon RPA?UPDATE 6/24/26:Basically, I’m looking for a Nintex RPA equivalent of “try/catch”. Some Nintex ACs have an “Exception” clause. I’m looking for something more general. A potential (ugly!) workaround might be to set a global “error status code” variable, then manually check it everywhere :(
Hi,We are currently exploring options to secure our internal APIs, which are consumed through SmartObjects.Our objective is to ensure that we can reliably identify the user making a request following authentication, while maintaining a secure approach throughout.As part of a proof of concept, we have successfully configured service instances using PKCE, Microsoft Online, and Client Credentials resource types, with SmartObject methods connected to one of our API endpoints.The PKCE flow appears to be the most suitable option for interactive form-based scenarios. However, we encountered some challenges when testing workflow scenarios. Since K2 workflows execute under the K2 service account, we enabled the following option to allow the SmartObject to function within workflow steps:Cache OAuth token for service account for using SmartObjects in workflow steps What we observed is that the cached OAuth token associated with the service account appeared to correspond to the user who last refre
I am using Nintex Workflow online and configuring a Start form. I am trying to set the default value of a Choice - Multiple control on the Start form with the choices selected in a multi select column from an existing item in a SharePoint online list item.Is this possible?
Hi,I am creating a process. I move happily along to a decision. I then reach a decision point. If the ‘product’ is a tier 4 there are two extra steps so I go off into another group, perfect.I then want to bring the group back in as a conditional, I can not place it after a decision, will not save. So has to go after the next step, so on the map it does not look like you need to follow the next process.screen shot of what it looks like at the momentWe have lots of examples like this. Anyone have any ideas to make this work at group level?Thanks in advanceMark
