Actions
Hi there. Has anybody here experience to work with Webcon and MS Planner hand in hand? I saw that there is an API for Planner, that lets me hope that I could connect the two. Kind regards Klaus
Hi everybody, since yesterday I get an error when I create a custom email in action templates. Error: Error sending mail: Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list. It happens when I use the action in a process AND when I hit the "Send test mail" button in the action itself. Does anyone have a solution? webcon version is 2022_1_3 Best regards, Lutz
Hi, We have a requirement for adding scanned signatures to pdf documents we generate. There are multiple possible signatures that must be added based on the person selected during the workflow (a responsible person). What would be a secure way of adding these "pictures" or scans of signatures to the generated pdf? One option we tried was creating a form field, that generated a URL with the path to the image of the signature based on the person selected as a responsible person, but this solu (...)
Hi, Is it possible to include the comments field into a pdf generated based on a template? So like you can include various form fields by creating a tag e.g. {WFD_AttText1}, is there such a code for the comments field? And will it work if we include it in a template to generate pdfs? Thanks!
Hi all! We want to execute a JSON query on a path (actually it is some business rule containing SQL query) and send these results to an external endpoint (REST service). The problem is that the query does not reflect current changes in form, since this happens on save. This should be related to database transaction and current values which are not persisted at this moment. Is there even a way to handle this scenario properly in Webcon? We have a dictionary process, so there is no (...)
Hi, What would be the best way to generate pdfs that would contain different images (for example logos), based on a form field? I was thinking of two ways: -Create a couple of different document templates with pictures already inserted and dynamically select template based on the other field value(s). -Insert picture into a image form field during the workflow and then insert the picture into the document with the generate word document action (this would not be a good solution, since (...)
Hi, I tried to add a field from the process in the word template but I get the error from the attachment. I tried with another field from the same process and it works. I used webcon version 2022.1.4.127 Thank you, Raluca Lupu
Hi, are any of you using the AD action that allows you to add/remove users from a group? Maybe I`m missing something, but I can't get the action to remove a user from a group to work. The add user to group action works fine, but when deleting, the log says that user is not a member of selected group. I tried with different groups, making sure that users are synchronized, and even for testing purposes used domain admin account in the AD actions configuration, but without success. Does this (...)
Hi, How to set up multiple sender email addresses? In the configuration of sending emails you can settup only one account and our custommer would like to send emails from different inboxes depending on the application. They use Graph for the email configuration. Graph is capable of sending emails from multiple accounts, but can we settup this somehow in webcon? I find it strange not to be able to as it is quite an important functionality especialy when webcon allows multiple applications to (...)
Hi, In my "Leave of absence" process I allow users to select more than one person who will be the substitute during the leave. Action "Add substitution" (not sure it's name is exactly like this, I have Polish version) in current version, provided with the form field containing more than one person, adds the substitution only for the first one. It seems to have been working some versions ago. Is it normal now, does anyone have a workaround?
Hello, how to set an attachment as required on a workflow form?
Hello everyone, Hope you're all doing great! Does anyone by chance knows how to configure an email that only the newest row in an item list form field will be sent in the email? The examples from webcon are how to paste a complete item list in the email but I just want the new one (that I have a flag for that) because I'm sending documentation and I just want to have the latest one Thank you in advance and Merry Christmas!
Hi, I'm trying to anonymize authors of workflow attachments. Is this possible with the "Remove personal data" action? I have tried doing so without success. Are there any other options? Thank you.
I have a requirement were I need to generate a RS Report from the form data, from the image attached the user have a path 'Generate Contract' were it will generate the report and reassign/reopen the form step again to the same user. I have tried to add the 'Generate RS Report' action on 'Generate Contract' path, on exit and also on the second entry but every time the report show empty because I believe the 'Generate RS Report' action being run before the data get saved in the webcon DB. I (...)
Is it possible to create at the finish stage word file using data from WFHistoryElements table? Where should I store data regarding stages, time of the stages and person details assign to this stage to be able to used them in document template?
Hi all, I have a process where the user fills in information in a datasource form field. When a value is picked, one of the columns in that datasource is copied into another field (status). This field-status is used in a control step to move the process accordingly. But I need to have that information refreshed, when the process is moved to a system step, it will be there for 15 days which means that it the status is changed, I need that to be reflected on my side. I've tried two approac (...)
Hi, I have an action where I upload one PDF file into a SharePoint document set in SharePoint on premises. Every uploaded document is checked out. I already checked: - All metadata is given - versioning is not active - file approval is not active I want the file to be checked in after I've uploaded it. How do you handle files when uploading them do SharePoint on premises? Or has anyone else had a similar problem? Best regards, Tim
Hi, I'm creating the workflow for registering agreements with some typical fields: counterparty, agreement no., value, signature date - let's call it Agreement Register (AR). To avoid manually register all necessary data I've also created another workflow (Import Agreements Data) with item list, which is populated using excel file and on entry of default path a subworkflow AR should start using action "for each" collection from the item list populate the fields in AR instance . But even if fiel (...)
Hello all, I know this as been asked in the forum, but I have an issue with the action Move workflow. I've read the answers for another user, but I think I can't use the example on the https://alterpaths.com/massive-update-of-sub-workflows-in-webcon-bps/ because for my case I have 5 different chains in the Child workflow and each of them as their own Complete and Cancel step. This was working prior for the cancelled but I'm wondering if this only works if you have one final step (either (...)
