Hi everyone, I just noticed that the push notification has been activated for all path after the migration to 2025.1.1.23. New path are created without active push notification. I decided to deactivate this setting on database level: update WFAvaiblePaths set PATH_SendPush = 0 where PATH_SendStandardEmails = 0 Afterwards: - Reset all caches - Reload everything in the designer studio Best regards, Daniel
Hi, during a call yesterday we realized, that a time previously timeout is executed after 10 minutes by default, if it runs into an error. This includes "Element was checked out" errors. While I agree that this may be a good thing for the production environment, but a pain in all others. Unfortunately my user voice was set to "Not now", but maybe it can be revisited now. https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/5248?messageid=5248 Best regards, Daniel
Hi all, first of all: this is not supposed to be a moaning complaint, just a heads up so other people dont fall for the issue that hit us today. I wanted to share some info regarding the update from 2022 to 2023, as we ran into some very unsatisfying issues with SQL COMMAND business rules that are querying field IDs. It hit us on some neuralgic spots in our main workflow, causing quite some pain right now. If you still have to update to 2023 make sure you test every SQL COMMAND based ru (...)
Hi, I would like to create validation for the input in a column of an item list. I have an item list with two columns (Input, Source). If the Source is "External," I don't want to validate for special characters. I have been using regex on the column, but now I have this condition. One solution I thought of is to create a "for each" loop on the item list and add a validation form... But I would prefer it to happen immediately, when user is inputing, not when the user clicks on the next (...)

How to convert a graphic file to PDF?
Hello, I have read a solution to this topic in a thread: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/2811 Still, this does not refer to a report basing on SearchIndex. How can I achieve the same effect in my reports? Of course, I can create an attribute an update it in each step, but this is very time-consuming, as I would have to update it on every path. Is there any other solution?
Hi, can someone from the community share information on how to properly create an OCR project for recognizing foreign invoices, e.g., German, Czech, Slovak invoices? How did you handle this?
Hi everyone, I'm currently working with a popup search field that retrieves data from a REST web service. My challenge is that I need the ID to also be the value for the field. Essentially, when initializing the field, I need to set both the ID and the Name for the same field. However, when I attempt to do this, I encounter an error. Has anyone else faced this issue or found a workaround to handle this situation? Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone, Jarosław created a threat in which he points out that <buttons> elements are no longer rendered if they are used in an item list data row column.: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/5247 I tested the most common/likely elements and to verify which are supported by using this SQL query: select '<a>a tag</a>' + '<br/>'+ '<button>button tag</button>' + '<br/>'+ '<div>div tag</div>' + '<br/>'+ '<i class=''ms-Icon--EditContact ms-Icon'' title=''In Bearbeitung''></i>' (...)
Hi guys, Is there an easy way to copy content from one process to another, e.g. using the WFDID? For example, to copy the content of a text field from process 1 to a text field in process 2 using an action. Our users would like to have a feature to copy content from older processes to current ones if it is similar content. A kind of "copy template".

Hi, sometimes when trying to import an older .bpe package you might encounter error message like this: "The version of the import package does not match the installed WEBCON BPS version.". It's somewhat helpful, we know the reason, but we don't know the version of the package, in case we would like to be able to use it there is a need to setup an environment with that specific version, and update it. So how do we find a version number in .bpe package? First let's start with extracting it (...)
Hi, in case you have choose fields, which reference information from another workflow you should prevent the user from entering special characters. Example: A subworkflow is linked to a parent workflow with a choose field and uses the Title field as the display name. If a user enters ; or # in the value of the field, this will break the choose field logic. The system will be interpreted as a delimiter for a new choose field. This can be achieved by using a regular expression. RegEx (...)
Hello all, I'm trying to copy the HTML code from the company's sharepoint for the News page. I've tried many ways but the layout changes when I try to add it in the dashboard and even trying to select the margins, it doesn't fit in the page, like I just want to check the first 5 news and get a scroll.

Hi Is there possible to set a rule or something else, so that you can only add one item in an item list? And if a user tries to "Add" a new item (2nd item) to set an alert ...? Thanks.
Hi everyone, maybe you have read the change log of the latest version and come across the new action and it's description: This action adds all rows from the specified Data source to the indicated Item list, without checking for duplicates, but taking into account the values specified in the Columns mapping section. Executing this action may result in duplicate rows of the Item list. As I encountered the described implications, I wanted to stress this, as the current action may (...)
