Hi everyone! This is not my first installation of WebCon BPS, but it is the first time I experienced this error. Everything worked fine until Users list configuration step. When I try to configure the local AD as source for synchronization, I receive the error "The parameterized query '(@Email nvarchar(4000),@DisplayName nvarchar(4000),@BpsId nvarch' expects the parameter '@DisplayName', which was not supplied." I assume, that for one of my service accounts the property display name is not se (...)
Dear all, what would be the best practice to update/change the Business Entity of an instance? Background: I would like to create an application containing people related to a company respective business entity. Over the time it is possible they would change the company and so also the business entity. I found a dirty way by using an SQL Update directly on the WFElements table, but I am struggling by running this query by (cyclic) action on a separate path. The path is walking through fine ac (...)
Hi all, i thought it might be a good idea to share useful queries that should be reusable for any of us as they are. Although I personally find the built in Workflow-History very useful and really like it for admin-purposes, it might be some kind of an detail-overkill for common users. In order to give users a more simple look of what happened so far in the workflow, I created a datasource that should work for all workflows and translations. Values are shown depending on the users browser la (...)
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 (...)
In the release notes of WEBCON BPS 2021 the new option of using the openid authentication flow is mentioned. However, i did not find an option to use this authentication when calling Rest API's. https://webcon.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/WEBCON-BPS-2021-New-Release-Overview.pdf Did i miss something or is it not yet released?
Yeah, the new version is released and based on the change log, these are my three highlights: 4.11. Using variables representing configuration objects’ ID Item list improvements. Ok, this is cheating but there are a lot of useful changes :) 4.17. Report views in the navigation menu I didn't list the new WEBCON BPS Designer Desk because it's not comparable and would probably be on everyone's top list.
We will soon be using the “Public Access” feature, which allows external users to be invited to a WEBCON application step (in our case) or steps without a BPS account. So far, I’ve only found the option to customize the invitation email (see PIC-1). However, most of the people we invite are unfamiliar with WEBCON or WEBCON BPS and don’t immediately connect it to JR Rädlinger. In the invitation, we’ve already added “powered by WEBCON” so that the logo might at least be recognizable. My questio (...)
I used JS button to InvokeRule(Form rule). Form rule used FOR EACH ROW function on Item list to populate technical column with increment integer (1, 2, 3…). This integer was used for Item list sorting in Item list configuration. While in version 2022, the execution order of FOR EACH ROW was driven by sorting (even unsaved) Item list as seen on the screen (First sorted visible row first, Last sorted visible row last), it is not the case in version 2025. What is the driver for FOR EACH ROW executi (...)
Hello. Is it possible to somehow remove the entries that are in the recent activities section under each application from the database? In what specific table are they located? I would like to remove entries older than 30 days. Thank you for your answer. Maciej
I am trying to use the inbuilt CR feature (https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/change-requests/388/3) Very nice implementation. But without any notification (ie. email if new request is submitted or on a new comment) this feature does not help much... or I am missing something? best regards Ernst
Hi, i have a question in regards to saving data and obtaining it later. So, i have an item list where each user has an id, if i change any of these attribute fields, changes need also to take effect in the dictionary. There is a specific field that will trigger this action. I already created a query that will map correct attributes with update command. I'm interested in the logic that would need to take place in obtaining the current changes. thoughts: - after triggering specific field in th (...)
I was trying to fill an item list through a Form rule (obraz_2025-05-21_133226938.png) on the 2025.2.1.42 version. The error occures on the first columns, seccond to last row, if the column is a single line text field. The mentioned field isnt filled by the rule. and I'm sad
Hello, I have a process, in which the "pathId" transition paths require adding comment. However, in SDK I am unable to find a way to move the document along this path due to missing comment. private async Task CancelInstance(DocumentsManager manager, int documentId, int pathId) { ___var document = await manager.GetDocumentByIdAsync(documentId); ___await document.Comment.AddCommentAsync("Adding comment required for this transition"); ___await manager.MoveDocumentToNextStepAsync(new MoveDo (...)
I have some form rules that have parameters, i would like to trigger them in a javascript/formrule javascript. However it seems there is no way input the parameters when invoking the form rule. Does somebody know a way to do this?
Hi, I'm creating an html template to generate a PDF document. However, I don't get the full text every time, just single letters. On the example code from the page: https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2025R1/Studio/Action/Printouts/GenerateHTML/HTMLandPDFTemplate I get the result as attached. Do you have any idea what this could be? 2025.1.1.23
Hi, Is there any solution to add support for Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) for protected files? We have implemented the MIP system, but Webcon seems not to recognize labeled files. So we can't use internal protected files as attachments in webcon, even though webcon service users have privileges to do so. Error when we try to view the file / or edit: Aspose.Words.UnsupportedFileFormatException: Unknown file format Is there a plan for a solution that will decrypt files (...)
