Hi there. Trying to familiarize myself with the for each action. I have an item list an I want a business rule to evaluate the value for each row of a certain column (choice field) an execute an action for it. Unfortunately, as soon as I have more than one row in the item list, the BR evaluation will fail as it attempts to test against all the row values for the specified column. My BR uses: IF[GET IDs[SELECT VALUES[Item list | Column]]] = [Choice field id] I guess there must be (...)

Hello Community, We have problems with the different runtime environments of the WBCON Workflow Service (under .NET Framework) and the WEBCON BPS Portal (under .NET Core) and System.Data.ODBC. I have developed an SDK plugin that integrates the NuGet package System.Data.ODBC to access ODBC data sources. The target runtime environment of the plugin package is .NET Standard 2.0, so that the plugins can be executed both in the service and portal. Without the integration of System.Data.ODBC (...)

We are having a document template with check boxes which should be checked/unchecked based on form field values. Does anyone have experience how to achieve this? I've been trying the approach of using wingdings 2 which basically worked but failed during the conversion to pdf.

Hi. I was very optimistic that I could sign PDF files with locally installed certificates (Adobe reader functionality) using the "IT hit Edit Doc Opener" Addin as mentioned in the Webcon Knowledge Base (https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/new-way-to-use-a-digital-signature/253). So far everything works as described until I want to save the signed attachment. Doing so I get an error message "document can't be saved. Generic Failure" ("Das Dokument kann nicht gespeichert werden. Allgeme (...)

Hi, I would like to create an plugin that will open a link in the client side browser. I try using basic .NET method, but the browser starts on the server where Webcon is installing. Would I have to make a separate addon running on the client side? Then how to install such an add-on?

Hi, I am trying to use WebDav in order to edit other types of documents (Others than office apps). I have installed the server side plugin and the client side plugins, but I have no idea how to enable any sort of edit button in WEBCON that would trigger the WebDav App. I have tried the demo in this website: https://www.webdavserver.com/ and works, but that only confirms that I have the client side plugins installed correctly. Thanks!

Hi, after running (WebCon.Outlook_2022_1_3_47) the "vsto" file, this error message is displayed : The solution is to manually create the "application files" directory in the source. After that, the vsto file is imported correctly, but I open outlook and there is an inactive element in the addins - "Failed to load. A startup error occurred while loading the COM architecture plugin." Where can there be a mistake? thank you, mv

Hello webcon Community, currently I'm working on a process design which includes the automatic report generation from webcon as a PDF file. Additionally the process does always comes with an user-attached PDF file. My goal now is to merge/combine both files together into one final PDF for storage. Searching online i only found this source related to my problem: https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/sdk-actions/143 ..which briefly states "Merging several PDFs into one" could be poss (...)

When creating an SDK action there is an option to use the Logger Class to create logs (https://developer.webcon.com/2021/resources/online-documentation-sdk/html/2c254e06-3ac3-3a82-7c44-dae3d829d1e4.htm) Does anyone know where these logs are located (log file on file system or a specific database table)?

Hi there I implemented the docusign sdk and transferring docs to sign works like a breeze. BUT: checking if sent enevlopes are signed and then sending the workflow along the specified path is simply not working. I followed the docs according to this: https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/docusign-digital-signatures-in-webcon-bps/36 I do get the following error(s): WebCon.WorkFlow.Model.Common.WorkFlowException: Plugin 13 load error.: Object reference not set to an instance of (...)

Hi all! I am getting a strange warning when deploying a second SDK plugin package to customer environment (see screenshot). The background information is: Both SDK plugins need System.Text.JSON namespace for serializing / deserializing JSON objects, which requires a bunch of satellite assemblies to be packaged also. These assemblies are added to each package with a custom Powershell script and have exactly the same version in both packages. Why is Webcon complaining here (since versi (...)

Who runs 2021.1.2.136 and wants to help me testing "report subscriptions"? I'm currently evaluating an option to "subscribe" to reports/view. My aim is that the user will be able to select a schedule, define a report and receive this report by mail. This is currently in an alpha state. The business rule seems to work well but the BPS application is just in a proof of concept state. Maybe there's someone who can help me test the SDK/identify some issues. Fingers crossed, I'm going on vacation (...)

Hello, Our client can't give the type of acces needed to the user in order to install the Outlook Plug-In from the browser platform. Is there a way to install the plug-in manually?

Hi everyone, there's something I really don't understand. I'm currently using BPSExt-Signing-DocuSign extension https://github.com/WEBCON-BPS/BPSExt-Signing-DocuSign/releases/tag/2022.1 When I clone the branch and build it, the build folder contains another (older) "System.ComponentModel.Annotations.dll" assembly than the release. The reason for this is, that the plugin action CheckAllDocumentsStatus, which should be run in a cyclical action, fails due to an exception Could not load (...)

Hi, In several machines in my enviroment I get an error - Outlook turns of the webcon addin, because is slows down loading of the app. Is this normal, do you encounter the same problem? Even though Microsoft shows how to override the Outlook decision, I don't have this option in the addins dialog. I'm personally using Outlook 2016, is this too old for the addin to work?
