Hi there I am working with webcon for several years now , yet I still have some basic problems I cannot seem to wrap my head around: scenario: I added the docusign sdk and have docs sent for signature. works perfectly. now during this waiting period, I want to "park" the workflows (in a system step) and have them automatically check if the corresponding docs are signed. the status check works. what I am having problems with is cycling the check action and - if docusign docs status = c (...)

Hi, After upgrading to Webcon2023 (ver. 2023.1.2.44) we found errors during Form rule executions on page load. It is caused by trying to hide/show/set/etc attributes that are not visible on the form. In the 2022 versions, there were no issues with the same configuration cases. These errors appear during Diagnostics and additionally prevent saving the Diagnostics Session. Does anybody have similar issues with Webcon 2023? I tried to find it in the changelogs but with no success. MS (...)

Hello all, Does anyone know if it's possible to set up a behavior on an item list where in the picker field the user can select more than one option and it populates each option per row instead of adding multiple values inside the picker field. The user will be selecting options on the picker data source window and I would like that the system would allow choosing various options and populating the item list with the information. I know I can accomplish this with a choice field and then s (...)

Hello, I'm trying to find a solution to my problem. Let's say I have a workflow with a START step, INTERMEDIATE and a FINAL step. Intermediate step is assigned to Group B by default, but I need that after 5 days, if no person from this group took any action, to automatically assign the task to Group C. Is there such a way to do this? Thank you.

Hello. I have a subworkflow here I copy the content of an item list of the parent WF (change item list values). That works fine, but the attachment I have in parent item list I don't get copied/moved/linked. Has anybody an idea? Kind regards Klaus

Hello. Is it generally impossible to use the above action type to create a new workflow item with a "filled" item list or do I have a mistake in my doing? I have a table (item list) where I want to start subworkflows from (depending on field value) where this line of the item list is "copied" to the new workflow. Creating the WF item is easy, but the table stays empty. Is this a bug in my query or doesn't it work at all? Kind regards Klaus

I am trying to write a SQL statement to start a workflow but the data source needs to be a SQL data source rather than the Webcon database. I have defined the SQL data source (ConnectWise Companies) and it is working OK. I think the problem is what do I use in the "From" part of my SQL statement. If I omit the From part, when I test my query it does not recognise the column names and says "Invalid column name Company ID, Invalid Column name GroupID" I have tried using the Objects tab in the (...)

Hi all, Is there any possibility to change an URL field adding the link in the address and the text we want in the name? I want to create an URL link using a field from (through Change field action) the form but I don´t to display a more friendly name than the address. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I am quite embarrassed to have to ask this question because the answer is probably quite simple. Currently, I am reviewing a Webcon process that I created some time ago. In doing so, I started to implement some things (e.g. sending emails) in a better way. Now I have noticed that I have an "on entry" action in the step actions in some paths (which was previously responsible for sending emails). Where can I find this "on entry" automation? The automation is obviously not (...)

Hello everyone In a process I run a cyclic action in the Global Actions. This action contains a "Start a subworkflow (SQL)". When the subworkflow action is executed I just get the message 'Incorrect syntax near '}'.' in the *Last error* field. As seen on the screenshot There is no '}' in the SQL query of the subworkflow action... So now I am facing the mystery where exactly this error occurs at all and what exactly is the cause. Does anyone know where I can find more information about t (...)

Hello community, I am building application with one Dictionary process, and one standard process with 2 workflows. I would like to start second workflow many times as subworkflow of fist workflow and assign it to the several users/users groups (one per subworkflow) selected from Dictionary process. I am trying to use action “start a subworkflow (SQL)”. My understanding is that “start a subworkflow (SQL)” action (configuration of Data settings – Query returning data) works as follows: SE (...)

Hi, Is anyone having trouble calling a PowerShell script that connects to MsolService? After updating WebCon to version 2023, the action calling the script ends with the error as below.

Hi Guys I need your help. I start tasks based on a workflow but attachments do not transfer. If I do it manually as a action on path then the attachments move to subworkflow and its ok. But if I use a cyclical action to call the same action -> "create SQL subworkflow", tasks are created but without attachments :/ Example in the attachment, I trigger the same action: Uruchom zadanie TEST (en: Run the TEST task) I use version 2022.1.4.223

Hi, I need to add an event to the AAD group calendar. Webcon uses/is synced with local AD. AD is synchronized with AAD. On the AAD side, an application with API permissions has been added Adding AAD groups and adding users to groups via graph API from webcon works fine. But, for example, if you want to add an event to the group's calendar POST method https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{group_id}/calendar/events The api needs to run in the context of the logged in user, not in th (...)

Hi everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to create an entry in an Outlook calendar with Webcon. I saw the action "Exchange Events" and as I understood it according to the documentation, it should be possible with this action. However, I do not fully understand the different settings for this action. How can I specify, if I have multiple calendars in Outlook, in which calendar I want to write my entry? Or did I misunderstand something? Thank you for your help in advance! Bes (...)

Hello everyone! I have an item list with a dropdown field where user chooses a WFD_ID value. I would like to execute an action (Update related workflow instance or Invoke REST web service) passing the WFD_ID chosen in the mentioned field to the action. Is something like that even possible? I can't find a solution myself. Thank you, M.

Hello, I have a short question. I want to generate an Excel file with my data from the BPS datasource. I created an Excel template with a worksheet(test) and a table(myTable) and a action create excel. I write the assignment like this: test!myTable and my data to the right cell. But I always get an error. (Invalid cell name) If I just want one data set and just write the cell names for each like test!A2, it works perfectly. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for some hints, Mario

Hi Guys, knowing i am a newbie, i just have a maybe quite simple question. Can i get the ID of the 'calling' action on the entry path of an action? Would like to check which ist the caller and depending on the result send an email or not. Thats it ;-) Thanks for some hints, Gerd

Hello, After upgrading to 2023.1.1.89 I'm getting error "Attempting to launch workflow instance for a form type not connected with the current workflow." I found out that the reason for this error is wrong workflow ID in hyperlink function. Everything works well on dev environment but after export and import on test environment hyperlink is not working causing above error. It seems that Workflow ID tag isn't "translated" during the import process and remains the same on TEST like it was on D (...)
