We are about migrating content to WEBCON BPS. I would like to have at least the last modifying users migrated as well. How could i achieve this? Was thinking about setting a technical field to the last modifying user and then doing an SQL Update on the element after migration. Sure this is not the way that is officially supported. But is there another way?

I have a structure where a meeting (parent workflow) has many Agenda Points (Subworkflows). On each Agenda point, I have (inter alia) two fields that I would like to include in Meeting Minutes (an item list on Meeting), where each line item corresponds to one Agenda Point. When I finish an agenda point I would like to create a line item in the items list (meeting minutes). SELECT '{1805}' AS {DCNCOL:253} , '{1891}' AS {DCNCOL:254} , '1' AS {DETCOL:1910} FROM WFElements WHERE WFD_ID = {WFD_W (...)

Hi all! We are currently using the Google Maps field with address-based (dynamic) mode for registration of clients, which is in my opinion very user-friendly. The problem is, this mode shows the correct position on the map, but it doesn't store anything in the workflow item. We want to store Longitude and Latitude (e.g. in 2 extra fields of the process/workflow) along with Street, Zip and City (which is already happening). I hope you know, what I mean. Is this even possible without develop (...)

I'm banging my head on the wall... I'm sure there is an easy solution but can't figure it out at the moment. I would like to prevent users entering duplicate values in a field when starting a new workflow and I don't want to use the Instance Number to achieve that. I have a process ABC with field WFD_AttText1. How do I prevent the user to enter a value that already exists in the field WFD_AttText1 of the process ABC? Thank you.

Hello, I hope you can help with this! I need to guarantee that a file in the attachments is checked-in (so the version will be different than 1) before moving the workflow to the next step. In the validation form, I don't have the attachments system so that I can construct a query to verify this. Does anyone have an idea? Thank you!

I am using Exchange events action to add a meeting request to the meeting participants. Everything works fine, but it is not possible to add parameters isOnlineMeeting, onlineMeeting, and onlineMeetingProvider. I tried to resolve this by updating the calendar entry via MS Graph API – Calendar/events. From the Exchange identifier, I was able to determine what would the id of the event be (everything behind #), but when trying to update the event with two additional parameters (isOnlineMeeting, a (...)

Hi all, i hope you are well. We have moved our PROD-Environments Databases to a different SQL Server last night. Except from some annoying trouble with Sharepoint and the Webcon solutions we managed to get everything running smoothly again. We uninstalled everything except from SOLR, and installed it again. The old databases are offline. Currently there is still an alias configured, that routes traffic that might go to the old SQL-Server to the new one, which is okay, but nothing we want to (...)

I try to read/load in an xml-file in the Webcon application about the attachment section. Then I build myself a choice picker, where I can chose the selected file. After that I want to run an SDK action, where I get the data from my xml-file. In my code I implemented something but the file path is static at the moment and compares the file names. Normally every read in file gets an ID in the database but I don't know how to access this data. Has anyone experience with this and kno (...)

Wondering if it is possible to open the attachment preview dialog by using javascript only. Does anyone already tried to do this? There is the possibility to open the latest attachment, but that's not the solution i'm looking for.

By having a copy of a external file as attachment instead of only having a link to it, we can take advantage of the great preview functionality. How ever, having copies of a file increase the risk of having multiple versions and loosing track of the relevant document. In my case, we have customers who wants to link to files in SharePoint and other dms. So I'm wondering, how you guys solve this challenge. I'm currently thinking about a simple itemlist having a hyperlink column to store the lin (...)

I haven't found any documentation how to access the current form data. What I know is, that all the formdata is kept in a json property called liteDate.liteModel as a json-object as you can see when calling /api/nav/db/{dbId}/app/{appId}/element/{wfdid}/desktop I guess that this liteModel must be available via javascript. I'm wondering, because there is this form from the offical 2021 release paper (see below) with the nicely presented workflow steps on top of it. And I believe that this a (...)

Hey everybody! Does anyone already created an action to add news values in an item list? I'm trying to add a new line in one item list but one of the field I'm copying into is a Person/Group one and it doesn't get the value. I'm using the following query: select '{WFCONCOL:1769}' as {DCNCOL:105}, 'Requester Manager' as {DCNCOL:104} from WFElementDetails where DET_WFDID='{WFD_ID}' and DET_WFCONID={WFCON:1652} with the unique value set to be the row identifier Anyone with idea (...)

Hello, I'm trying to start a subworkflow from an item list. My item list will have the candidate for Positions and it will not be filled at the same time, each time there's a candidate for an offer, the user creates a row. To start my subworkflow I'm using as conditions having the candidate name as not null and a flag set to true and i'm using this as an execution condition with the following SQL: if exists ( select 1 from WFElementDetails where DET_WFDID={WFD_ID} and DET_WFCONID={WFCO (...)

During the latest webinar Mike mentioned the GitHub Tool for bulk data loading. Does anyone know where I can get it? I didn't find it on the WEBCON-BPS page on GitHub. Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hi, Is there a way of installing on the same machine multiple versions of the designer studio? That would be great when working with remote/local designer and when your customers have different versions of WEBCON. Thanks!

Good morning, How to disable showing attachments from a specific workflow in search results?

Hi all! I am new to WebCon BPS. I wonder if it is possible to get all items of a process or a datasource/dictionary defined in BPS from client side via REST API. In SharePoint I did something like this: _api/web/lists/getbytitle('MyList')/items?select=Title... This does not seem to be possible with BPS REST API or at least I did not find it ;-) I am thankful for every hint pushing me into the right direction. Thanks in advance, best regards, Nik

Hi everyone! I read the article about ADFS Customization: https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/adfs-customization/208 My issue is that my Windows server is not configured correctly and I lack knowledge to configure it. I started reading the MS documentation and it's huge. There are a lot of settings to configure and I'm not sure what's needed and what not. I was wondering if there is anyone who would be willing to point me in the right direction... Thanks, Martin

Hello all, again its me =) Do you have any idea if I can change the lable of the attachment? Somehow its always in English, but customer wants it in German. I added a screenshot, that you understand what I mean. Greets and have a nice day, Georg

Hello Everyone, I am looking for solution to exchange files between WebCon and SharePoint Online. I was thinking about built-in actions in WebCon ("add an attachment to a list") as described in this article: https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/creating-a-sharepoint-site-with-a-webcon-bps-action/203/3 Unfortunately probably because of MFA I am not able to establish connection with SPO (I get error "The sign-in name or password does not match one in the Microsoft account system").
