Hi, Could you clarify what changes were made to the SDK licenses in WEBCON 2024 and 2025? I don’t fully understand the modifications and would like to know if I need to take any additional steps regarding the license or key to sign plugins. If I’m currently using an SDK plugin developed by our in-house development team, does that mean I might not have an SDK license? Or do I need to do something with the signing key? I’m a bit confused. For context, we have a perpetual license - webcon 2022 O (...)

Hi, If I would like to add Custom Action then I should have one free license of WEBCON BPS SDK Freamwork? WEBCON BPS SDK Freamwork shows us how many plugin packages we can install?

Sometimes I get the Microsoft Login screen (we use M365 OAuth) in the Outlook-Plugin. But only on the tab "Form fields". Tab Attachments and Information are working and displaying the information of the current BPS object. If I restart Outlook all is working again as expected. After a restart it works for 2-3 BPS mails, but then it stops working.

Hi, I discovered the following problem today: If MailApproval is activated while the Outlook add-in is also active, then MailApproval does not work.

Even if the orginal mail about a new task is immediatly closed, the error on path transition is occuring. Only if I delete the mail immediatly, MailApproval is working correct. Once the (...)

Hello! I installed the WEBCON Word Classic add-in on my test-pc/test-account, running Microsoft Office 365. All is working as expected. If I click on User-Settings in the WEBCON-Tab, I can enter the portal URL and it connects perfect. However, with my production pc/account I can install the add-in also, it also shows up in the Word Ribbon-band, but none of the buttons are working (they are "active", but a click on it does nothing). Only the License Button is working. I did already some (...)

Hi, Is there a way to configure the SDK so the option: "Auto logs level" will not be applied to a specific SDK, or is there a way to turn off all logging completely for a specific SDK?

Hi, I am looking for a solution to download a file from attachments by ID for users who have disabled the attachment panel (they can't see all attachments) or for those who do not have permission to access attachments. However, I need to allow them to download a specific attachment from a document. I know I can use this URL(for those who have only disabled attachments panel) <SITE ADDRESS>/api/nav/db/1/attachments/<ATTACHMENT ID>/download, but I would prefer a solution based on the SDK. Co (...)

Hi, I tried to work with Webcon API on the trial but only what I retrieve is empty list of tasks. I successfully authenticate by app client context and receive token which I used to read tasks. I cannot register by user context and I cannot read other data from Webcon. Is it a standard behavior for trial or is there something I missed?
