Hello, I have a quick question - are privileges added to item through "Add privileges" action visible in the administrative "privileges to item" panel? I'm asking, because I have an action that is being run on an item, there is no error, but the rights given rhis way are not visible. Is it normal (I have the latest of 2021 versions still running)?

Hello, I would like to ask if it is possible to automatically collapse attachments in a given group? I wish this would work in the same way as the collapsed attribute group. Alternatively, is it possible to write a rule that would control this? Thank you for your help.

We are using a Hot-Mailbox to process incoming e-mails with a pdf attachment. The attachment is added to the instance corresponding to the barcode applied on the pdf. This works fine so far. There is now the need, that the users has to send at least one other attachment which does not have a barcode and these should be added to the instance as well. Thought this would be possible by configure the "Additional attachments" sections, up to now i was not successful. Is there anything i mi (...)

Hi, has anyone encountered problems with Invoke Sopar service action after upgrading to version 2022.1..1.53? We forgot to test the functionality immediately after the upgrade (due to some issues with the license) so rollback is not an option…. We are gathering data from the national registry of companies when registering a new partner into our system with the action. In 2022 we just receive the following error »Object reference not set to an instance of an object.« I can not find anything in (...)

The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Ntlm'. The authentication header received from the server was 'NTLM'.

One of our customers would like to print the pdf attachment when moving to the next step. As there is no action to send a document to a printer (apart from print a barcode label), i'm wondering if anybody implemented this.

Hi, Is it possible to copy an entire item list to a subworkflow? In the official guide, there is just an example of copying form fields to subworkflows: https://howto.webcon.com/action-start-a-sub-workflow/ Has anybody accomplished anything like this? Thanks

I have a dictionary process containing some appartments, and another process where you make reservations. I would like to do one thing - let's say you are browsing the appartments list and when you find the right one, you want to make the reservation right from the appartment form. At the moment to do this I first need to click "edit", then a menu button with the relevant action appears which I can click and all works as planned. I also made a javascript button which invokes the action from the (...)

Hi, I am currently having Trouble with timeouts in my system. I made an easy timeout that should only do a path transition every minute, to test if the timeouts would work. Currently no action is called during the trigger of the timeout, but even when adding a simple action the timeout doesn’t work. I did check the following thread about a similar problem (https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/1068?messageid=1068). Their it is suggested to check if all services are working and if “basic fea (...)

Dear All, sorry if this is an extremely easy question, but how do I select printer in action Print barcode label? I have an option to select primary printer and accounting printer. But how do I select "Document entry points" with assigned printers there? What if we have more than two barcode printers in company? How can we point that for specific process we will use this printer, and for other process we will use different printer? Anyone found a solution for that? Anyone faced same issue? T (...)

Hello community! Maybe this is a very basic question, but I am asking it anyway ;-) I tried out OnTimeOut action, but after some experiments it is very unclear to me, how this is expected to work. I added one time out action with Type: Minute, Interval (minutes): 1, Repetition count: Infinite and 1 action below which basically changes the value of a single field. My expectation was, that this field change should happen on every workflow element every minute, but this didn't happen. What di (...)

We are sending out email and need to know whether the email had been delivered or not. When sending a custom email the "Delivery notification" and "Read notification" can be set. How do the interact with WEBCON BPS or better say, how can i check for the delivery/read notification?

Hi All, I have a workflow where I use “Start a subworkflow (SQL)” action. I also have a “Wait for sub-workflows(system step)” step where I wait until all the subworkflows will end. I configured the “Wait for sub-workflows” to go back to “register step” when one of the subworkflows finished negative. See picture And here are my problems: Let say I started 3 sub-workflows and one of them went negative path. Although my main workflow went to the “register step” the rest sub-workflows are sti (...)

We have a form that needs to stay open for a length of time before auto moving the flow into a cancelled step. This length of time is user selectable when creating a new record. Talent Req is created and posting is set to stay up for 30/60/90 days. Is there a way to get the Timeout interval value set to the value of a form field? (If the user chooses 30 days, that will be the timeout value, 60, etc...)

Hello everyone, I have an action where I upload one or multiple attachements (PDF) to a SharePoint list in SharePoint Online. Currently all attachement uploaded to the SP list are checked out. Is there a known configuration in the action or in SharePoint? Or has anyone else had a similar problem? Best regards, Tim

Hi, I use process level constants when I need to generate MS Word attachments. This gives me consistency when transferring processes between DEV / TEST / PROD. I don't have to think about replacing the name /DOCTEMP/f8e86bc...e967af9b62 with another guid in appropriate action. The same I wanted to do for generating MS Excel attachments. Unfortunately I get the error: WebCon.WorkFlow.Common.Exceptions.WorkFlowException: An (name) action execution error on a menu button occurred. ---> System.Net. (...)

Hello, I want to download data from REST Web service, which has collection type, but I can't map it because there is no type of attribute like that in Webcon. Can it be handled comehow?

Ok, now that my PS script is running, in this particular instance I need to grab a variable result and assign that value to a form field. Simply assigning the Form Field = $psvar isn't working. Is this possible?

Awhile back I was able to run PS scripts via an action without any issues. I don't use them much, primarily when playing around with what is possible. However I have a need for them now, but they will not run from webcon. I am running the powershell with an account that has the correct permissions. I have verified by running powershell on the webcon server with the account and testing the script. I see the following error in event viewer. PowerShell Error Message=WCF Service can be executed o (...)
