how to make Anonymous users action a workflow in k2

Hi DMI007
You can mark specific Views or Forms to be available anonymously. For example, you may wanth to expose a View / Form to public users who do not have user accounts in your organization's Identity Store. Enabling anonymous access on a View / Form would allow these external users to access that specific View / Form without having to provide credentials.
If you are using k2 4.7 see the following link:

If you are using k2 five see the following link:

Hi, ElvisJacobs
i tried this but task was not dropping for anonymous email
It isn't quite as simple as enabling an anonymous runtime. A workflow task must be assigned to a destination. That destination user is then the only one permitted to action the task.
It IS possible to do this, but a bit of extra work is required. I've seen this done by assigning tasks to a generic account, and then using logic built into task action pages to authenticate and authorize the individual user. This isn't exactly the same as what you want, but the same ideas should apply. If you want an "anonymous" user to action a task, you need to assign the task to someone (perhaps a ANONK2USER), and then have the smartform run under the context of that ANONK2USER.
There may well be other ways of achieving this, too, but that's the way I'm familiar with.
HTH,
