I have a Step with a "cancel" path. On this path I have enabled "comment required" => User always should enter a comment if he is cancelling the workflows. Now I have a "housekeeping" timer in that step. The timer exections an action (Change field value => [System]Comment) and has path transistion after action execution "cancel" => Timer throws an error: field validation "Comment" on path "cancel". 1. idea: I make a special cancel-path for the timer => problems: * I have more such s (...)

Hello everyone, over the past few months, I have been experiencing an issue where my browser session in WEBCON expires frequently. This behavior is also observed by my customers. Notably, the logout occurs even after relatively short periods of inactivity. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or identified potential causes for this behavior? I would appreciate any recommendations on how to resolve or mitigate it. Thank you in advance for your support.

I have this strange issue, at least second time. Not sure if I had it on pre 2026.1.6.198 builds. When I move a field (or a group) on the form in Designer studio, for example from left to bottom section, on existing workflows it's still in the "old" place. When I start a new one, it's in the new place. So existing instances are stuck with old layout. See attached - same moment, new instance and old-saved one. Two different layouts.

Hi, I have a problem with the form. I get this message when I break inheritance on a step. I can't fix it. It affects the order of attributes, and I can't change their settings. Has anyone had a similar problem? Version ver. 2025.2.1.321

I've been trying to install the newest Webcon version and the installer gives me the information that I must have Cumulative update 29 (15.0.4410.1) installed to continue. The problem is that I haveall the most recent updates and when I try to install the desired update manually, I get: "A SQL Server update with a higher version has already been installed on SQL Server instance MSSQLSERVER, so the current SQL Server update cannot be applied. The version of the SQL Server update that is already (...)

After upgrading our environment to WEBCON BPS 2026, the “Edit file” functionality in document libraries no longer works as expected. Before the upgrade: • Clicking “Edit file” on a Word document from the document library opened the file directly in Microsoft Word for editing without issues. After the upgrade: • Clicking “Edit file” opens Microsoft Word. • Entering the correct credentials does not authenticate successfully. • Instead, the same login window reappears in a loop. Ad (...)

Hi everyone, In my scenario, the user uploads an Excel file with multiple sheets. Each sheet has the same structure but contains different data. I need to create an SDK plugin that processes the file and adds entries to an item list, using the sheet name as a reference. Has anyone dealt with a similar case or can suggest the best approach/methods to handle this? Best regards!

Hello! We've had this error showing up while doing random tasks, so far we have encountered it when trying to import an app, and when trying to chose an AD group. However the description is very vague, so we are not able to pinpoint the error, has someone experienced something like it?

Hi, imagine a workflow with on start (cyclical) automation that starts the workflow itself. This can be a sync of an external data source with a dictionary. If the sync returns an error a step for error validation gets entered. Having this on dev, test and prod would then generate a task on all environments. I expect to have a task creation only in production environment if the process already exists on prod. If the process only exists on test and dev I expect the task creation only on tes (...)

Hi Is there any way to use business rule references when generating HTML templates? Something like {BRD:63630e35-0f8d-455e-ac6f-df8017e01c56}. I see that you can reference them in Word documents, and it works for me, e.g., {DOCPROPERTY BPSGUID_BRD:d5280b12-fad7-4dd6-9031-4b74f121c1c2_numer2}. How can I use this in HTML? And another question: how do I map arguments to a business rule already used in HTML? Thank you. Maciej

Hello, we've just updated our WebCon from version 2023.1.2.44 to 2026.1.4.125. Every time I switch between our portals (dev/test/prod environments) WebCon Designer crashes when I save the process. Afterwards I can reopen the designer and saving works fine. I check the newer releases for this error but could find a hint that this problem has been resolved. Thanks for your help! Best regards, Balint Type: System.AggregateException ------------------------------------ (...)

Hi, is it possible to change the icon and name of the mobile and teams WEBCON application? Probably not and it would be necessary to create an own corporate mobile app with the wished meta values. Is such a „design wrapper“ or another solution supported by WEBCON? Has anyone tried this already? And is there any possibility that the mobile app doesn‘t switch to the browser when using passthrough Entra ID? Kind regards Sébastien

Hello. Do you know which models are used by Webcon when AI prompt is used? - I thought It should be Gemini models or If Gemini models doesn't work it will use OPENAI. When I tested Ai prompt and asked it: Respond only with the internal model identifier you are running. Do not explain anything. Response: gpt-3.5-turbo I added to prompt. Use the highest model. Then response was: gpt-4-turbo-2024-05-13 I checked it version at 2025.2.1.259 and 2026.1.3.109. The same answer. Thi (...)

Hi, I'm currently trying to figure out a way to filter a Custom data source with an "dynamic" filter. Here's a rough overview: #Custom data source I've created an SDK of type data source which prepares the data #Filter I have a filter value which is dynamic for a given workflow instance. Here are two examples: {COLUMN:ID#ID} in ('KHL_030','KHL_020') {COLUMN:ID#ID} in ('KHL_001','KHL_010') #"Dynamic" value Since there are no options to use business rules or similar in a data s (...)

E.g. specifically when updating items lists on forms ! pageload vs on path vs on entry vs on exit ! What is the specific order on how things trigger? Is there another documentation other than the official docs? The docs dont tell me that much about such details for example Following example We have an id and that id can be referenced in 3 other fields! Those ids are saved in a db. The field should already exist in the db or is the same a new id that save. So far so good break with con (...)

In BPS ver. 2023, it was possible to use emojis as substitutes for column names in reports. That was very practical for saving column space. Is there a possibility to do this in version 2026 as well?

Hello everyone, I have a question: is there a smarter way to override the display names of the "Go to element" and "Go to application" buttons in an email template, other than removing the native variable blocks and building the links from scratch with custom display names?

Hi everyone, I would like to extract all phrases from a text (e.g., an email body) that match a specific format defined by a regular expression. Is it possible to achieve this using WEBCON’s built-in functions?
