Hello, I have a case on the portal. An employee was on leave for about 3 years, and during that time, their account in AD was blocked. When they returned, the account was unblocked. They now have almost 5,000 active notifications, which makes working on the portal very difficult because everything runs very slowly. Interestingly, the issue disappeared for a few days but then came back again. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello, just starting with our production environment. One question/issue showed up: Our User/Group sync is connected to Entra ID. Sync is working and ok.

To copy meta tags from a SharePoint site, you'll need to access the HTML code of the page. First, open the page you want to work with on the SharePoint site. Right-click on the page and select "View Page Source" (or use the browser's developer tools). Look for the <meta> tags in the code, which contain information like page description, author, or other details. You can then copy the content of these meta tags, such as the <meta name="description" content="..."> or <meta name="keywords" content= (...)
Hi, after creating/registering an API application, a user is automatically created. For instance, if the API app is named "something", the created user is named "something - Registered App". This user needs access rigts for the app/process it need access, and that's clear. But, api actions are also performed by that user, and this name is visible (for example - if we start the workflow over API, workflow instance is started by "something - Registered App"). So, how can I change the user (...)
Hello, we are using the API to create workflow instances by another system. We are also checking if this workflow has already been created.

Is there a way to access archived workflows via API? Thanks (...)

Hi, will there be an alternative to the current option the "Searching structures" offers in 2026? https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/platform-compatibility-roadmap/236/10 This is one feature I'm using on a regular basis. Either when I'm creating a new application and I don't want to bother with reports at this point in time or when doing support in production environments. Am I'm the only one who is using it? Best regards, Daniel
