Actions
Hi, I'm starting sub-workflow instances from item list. I would like to save sub-workflow instance ID to the related column of item list. I'm using automation having FOR EACH and Start sub-workflow action. All i can see is the possibility to save subworkflow ID to the form field, not item list columns. Is there a better way than having another action updating item list with the IDs?
Hi, I don't think the "Replace Item List Values" action is working properly. When I provide a BPS source in the configuration and use a filter to select data, the filter does not work on the form. The filter in Designer Studio works during testing. This problem does not occur in the "Update Item List Values" action, so I used a workaround: "Clear Item List" + "Update Item List Values" / Add new rows from the data source. Do you also have such a problem? However, using the SQL query instea (...)
Hello dear community! I have a question regarding OneDrive. I've set up a path that loops back to the same step. On this path, I have the action 'Start editing a file using OneDrive'. Additionally, I have established a data connection to my OneDrive in 'Data Sources', which works when tested. However, when I execute everything, it loads for a bit, and then I receive the error message: 'Error transferring the file test.docx', even though the document is in my OneDrive folder as configured. Regar (...)
Hi, We have problem after update to ver. 2023.1.2.99. We have implemented menu buttons for Help Desk and Printing. In 2022, every user who have acces to instance can push button and print form or start help desk (button in menu was accesable in every step or last steps etc). After the update buttons apear on the form but after clicking there is error... and users cant use it. Is it new feature or is it a bug. It looks like some save restrictions - but it was not the case in 2022 ver. (...)
Hello, At the moment I've split up a bigger project into smaller pieces so I can test out everything I need separately. I'm trying to add a new attachment to an instance using this API /api/data/v4.0/db/{dbid}/elements/{id}/attachments. I have 2 fields into this form: contentBASE64 and fileName. All I'm trying to do is to use these values from my fields together with the API action so I end up with an instance in a final state having an attachment into attachemnts section. I have alre (...)
Hello, The workflow I am designing requires an email to be sent after a certain time spent in a step. Is this possible using the Date Diff function?
Hello, I've upgraded my Webcon only yesterday and today it seems that there is a problem when sending configurable e-mail through action. The action is simple and it worked until now (previous version 2023.1.1.89). When the action runs it returns an error "Can't send e-mail: Column 'mail' does not belong to table Results.". The field used in the action is named "Procedujacy" and is the type "User or group" with the data source <Users and groups>. I am sure it worked before, what can be the prob (...)
Hello, I have a Global Action that allows users to Generate a copy of the form. This action worked with Read only access before we upgraded to version 2023.1.2.124. Now it is giving an error message to users and when I looked up the error it states users need elevated access.("User has not sufficient permission to edit WorkFlow instance"). Is there any work around to this or maybe a different action that would allow people to be able to print even if the task is not with them and don't have edi (...)
Hello, I'm configuring a clone feature for nested workflows, and i need to copy attachments from parent workflow to new parent, and from child elements to new children. Something like this: -Parent --Child --Child -NewParent --NewChild1 --NewChild2 It's easy to copy Parent attachments - I'm starting parent with `Start a subworkflow` action, which has `Copy attachments to subworkflow` option - this works great. This is the first step I have in my automation. Unfortunately Categ (...)
Hi all! I am currently struggling with 'Add privileges' action. I want to use a predefined datasource (SQL query based on WFElements), this is shown under (1) in attached picture. The datasource I am using selects all elements from a specific formtype and needs additional filtering in SQL query window (2). But I am unable to do that, every attempt so far resulted in syntax error. I am sure there is a trick (which is maybe undocumented), please help! Thanks a lot in advance & be (...)
We are building an on-boarding Workflow whitch is adding a new AD-User and granted him with the needed User-Groups. But when the User is needed to syncroniced with the Azure-AD because of using O365, i have no access to alter the User anny more. To adding and alter the User we use the SAM-account name and it works very well. But this doesn´t work on the Azure Users. By the way our AD is generated with an xxx.home and our Azure AD changed it to the Mail extension xxx.com So when i try (...)

Hi! We are in the process of upgrading from 2017 to 2021 - testing phase. I have a problem with the visibility and requirement rules for fields in an item list, when the contents of one cell affect the behavior of another cell in the same row. The existing rules do not work. What is wrong?
Hello, I have an application where users attach documents, and I want these documents to be uploaded to SharePoint. Additionally, I would like to create a dedicated folder for each set of attached documents on the current instance. However, I haven't found a specific action to achieve this. Can you suggest an idea? Thank you.
Hi there I am working with webcon for several years now , yet I still have some basic problems I cannot seem to wrap my head around: scenario: I added the docusign sdk and have docs sent for signature. works perfectly. now during this waiting period, I want to "park" the workflows (in a system step) and have them automatically check if the corresponding docs are signed. the status check works. what I am having problems with is cycling the check action and - if docusign docs status = c (...)
Hi, After upgrading to Webcon2023 (ver. 2023.1.2.44) we found errors during Form rule executions on page load. It is caused by trying to hide/show/set/etc attributes that are not visible on the form. In the 2022 versions, there were no issues with the same configuration cases. These errors appear during Diagnostics and additionally prevent saving the Diagnostics Session. Does anybody have similar issues with Webcon 2023? I tried to find it in the changelogs but with no success. MS (...)
Hello all, Does anyone know if it's possible to set up a behavior on an item list where in the picker field the user can select more than one option and it populates each option per row instead of adding multiple values inside the picker field. The user will be selecting options on the picker data source window and I would like that the system would allow choosing various options and populating the item list with the information. I know I can accomplish this with a choice field and then s (...)
Hello, I'm trying to find a solution to my problem. Let's say I have a workflow with a START step, INTERMEDIATE and a FINAL step. Intermediate step is assigned to Group B by default, but I need that after 5 days, if no person from this group took any action, to automatically assign the task to Group C. Is there such a way to do this? Thank you.
