Actions
Hi, I can see that in Cyclical Global Action there is possibility to use Change Field Value action. But I can't select any field on configuration tab. Does anyone know what is the problem? How I should use it? My business case is that I need to update a field which is based on some dictionary. Simply task - replace one value with another. It is needed to comply with some other needs and keep the data clean. My version is 2025.1.1.23
Hey team We are intensively testing Webcon. I'm trying to send a PDF attachment in a simple app using the HTTP POST method, and I can't get it to work. Postman works fine, Python too. How can I adjust my action to make it go through?

Any idea why? I attached also screenshots of action configuration. (...)

Hi, Is it possible to suppress the confirmation (positive) email from MailApproval? Or to design the automatically generated email? Background: In my opinion, this information is partly misleading to the user. e.g.: Betreff: RE: Mail genehmigt: ablehnen (final) (english: Subject: RE: Mail approved: reject (final)) => The user is right to ask: My rejection has now been approved? What? => Would be better: RE: Aktion erfolgreich: ablehnen (final) (english: RE: Action successful: reject ( (...)
Hi everyone, We're working on a process in WEBCON where we need to display a countdown timer on a form. Specifically, we want the timer to be shown in the [time until next adjustment] field, counting down to the next scheduled update. The timeout is set to update the [value] field, and the countdown should dynamically reflect the remaining time until that happens. Has anyone implemented something similar ? If so, how did you approach it? Any insights or best practices would be greatly (...)

Hi everyone, There is something that has been a thorn in my Webcon enviroment for some time. I thought that new version will solve this but unfortunatelly didn't. The problem is that in my leave of absence workflow I have an action that sets up substitution for the time a person is out of office. When I run a test (see left side of the enclosed screen) the SQL query shows correct dates of substitution (the same as te person's absence). When the acton runs the substitution is set to last for o (...)

Hello, I’m looking for a way to add an attachment within a PowerShell-action. I’m having an action “Run a PowerShell script” where I’d like to add an attachment to the currently running instance with the help of a WebCon REST API call. The problem is that while processing actions WebCon locks down the instance and I couldn’t find a way to make any changes to the process. I use the parameter “forceCheckout=1” – that works fine as long a user is editing the form but fails when called from ins (...)

Both servers are in the same domain and use the same user account. The SSL connection is active. On the test database, actions work correctly, and users are added to Active Directory.
