Hi Daniel Thanks for sharing your ideas! Sometimes we just don't see the obvious things. As we are migrating data via Rest API, i will take the second option. Best regards Markus

We are about migrating content to WEBCON BPS. I would like to have at least the last modifying users migrated as well. How could i achieve this? Was thinking about setting a technical field to the last modifying user and then doing an SQL Update on the element after migration. Sure this is not the

Currently, views do not allow dynamic filtering on views for datetime and people-picker fields. It can be done by extending the query in the datasource. The datasource can only be changed by administrators and designers. For end-users it would by great having the possibility to use placeholders fo

We recently had a presentation of WEBCON BPS for a new customer. They came up with the question if not only changes of an element are being kept in history, but also views. So we need to define the definition, what as to be considered as a view. Sometimes you can tell a lot from what you see on a

When updating the major version of WEBCON BPS you also have refresh your updated licences. Best practice is, to ask WEBCON to upgrade your licence before you update your system. I do this by submitting a new Business Request

When I look your code you were almost there. args.Context.CurrentDocument.GetFieldValue(Configuration.ChoiceFormFieldID) already returns an PickerField object. You can either cast the returned object to a PickerField or get the pickerfield value via the PickerFields-Property args.Context.CurrentDocu

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.

When adding or updating elements via Rest Api, for picker fields it is required to provide Id and name. Quite often the name is known, but not the id. As picker fields are usually based on datasources, it would by great, when the api would be extended with methods to query datasources. There shou

On reports we have the great possibility to execute mass actions by passing in some parameters. It would be a great having a similar kind of dialog menu action, where we can configure some informational text (e.g. as header/footer) and of course one or more fields as parameter.

Just came accross the next customer with the requirement of producing more advanced Pdf reports....

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

I haven't found any documentation how to access the current form data. What I know is, that all the formdata is kept in a json property called liteDate.liteModel as a json-object as you can see when calling /api/nav/db/{dbId}/app/{appId}/element/{wfdid}/desktop I guess that this liteModel must be

When you start Designer Studio via WEBCON BPS portal, the correct version will be downloaded once and stored in the directory %userprofile%/appdata/local/DesignerStudio. The next time you open Designer Studio it will start from the local directory. So there is no need anymore to explicit install

WEBCON BPS reporting offers great functionality for sorting, filtering. It would great having the option to implement and configure a SDK extension for reports, which would allow to execute an action based on the current selection. In my case the SDK extension would receive the selected rows with

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 somethi

Hi Georg I've posted a suggestion in the user voice a while ago https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/41/15 Think that this idea would solve your problem. So vote for it :)

It happens that special privileges have to be applied on workflow elements, dashboards or views. Unless we work on a system with different test users, it is quite difficult to check whether a certain user really has access to right artifacts or not. Sometimes i also get support tickets from custome

Thanks a lot for this sample. Exactely what i had been looking for. Works like a charm :)

I have the challenge to read form fields of a pdf document and store them in the workflow instance. The idea is, to implement an sdk custom action, where I am able to configure a mapping between the pdf form fields and fields of the workflow instance. The ideal solution is having two columns in

Thanks for this approach! That's indeed a good solution with the existing toolset.
