I am trying to add a smart object method to retrieve information from Active Directory, however  I don't see the Active Directory Service I  only have an Active Directory Service 2 that is missing a lot of methods such as (User Manager, Find managed userc, etc). How can I add an Active Directory Service  to K2 workspace that willl provide me the additional methods I am missing?


Thank you

Hi There,


If you go into the 'C:Program FilesK2 blackpearlServiceBroker' folder and check if the assembly SourceCode.Providers.ADProviders.Services.ADProviderService exists.


 If it does then you register is yourself by 


 - Run the 'BrokerManagement.exe' program in the same directory


- Click Congfigure Services


- Right click 'Register New Service Type', complete the dialog pointing it to the afore mentioned assembly


- Right click the newly created service type entry and choose 'Register New Service Instance' and complete this dialog, now your service will be available to create a smart object from.


 Looking through the methods on the ad service objbect 2 it looks like it should be possible to get the items you mention, have a play round and see.

SourceCode.Providers.ADProviders.Services.ADProviderService

Hey Azhavee,

any solution you got for the above problem ? I am facing the same issue while working with Professional K2 balckpearl book sample project. I also could not find any such service in the given folder.

Thanks much in advance.

I'm guessing you're using a version of 0807.  Version 0807, which was released after the book was written, changed the AD Service Broker that was available on a new install.  If you have access to help.k2.com, you can read the details here:
