This article provides an overview of the various types of timeouts in WEBCON BPS, illustrated through practical examples. It covers timeouts in automations, service operations, HTTP requests, and T-SQL transactions. The article also distinguishes between configurable timeouts and those imposed by the system’s infrastructure.

We designed an application in which the initial situation had to be documented using up to eight images (each up to 5 MB in size). We couldn't reduce the image sizes, as we needed the ability to zoom in on details in case of damage assessments.

To prevent these images from unnecessarily taking up space in the workflow history, we came up with the idea of transferring them to the attachments section instead. Since no further processing was required - the images were purely for documentation - this was a suitable solution. The file names of the images could be derived from the values stored in the picture field.

Tutorial to disable the alert:
"You are leaving the form with unsaved data. All unsaved data entered on the form will be lost. Do you wish to continue?"
This may be needed in special use cases where no instances shall be created and respective no data needs to be saved.

The WEBCON BPS system is natively integrated with the Active Directory (AD) service. Basic functionality of WEBCON BPS includes actions that allow managing AD resources directly from workflows. This article covers actions that enable the management of users and groups.

This article provides a detailed guide to integrating WEBCON BPS with Autenti. It outlines the document signing process and demonstrates the configuration of a sample workflow, which includes sending a document for signature and retrieving the signed version.

Integration of different systems has become a key element for the effective operation of an organization. WEBCON BPS has been providing advanced capabilities in this regard for years through its standard, public REST API. However, in response to the need for more flexible and faster to deploy integrations, we have provided User Defined API – functionality that allows users to define their own dedicated REST API endpoints in the context of a specific application and process. This allows external systems to easily communicate with WEBCON BPS.

There may be a need to isolate a specific application for a particular group of users. This is where the Application Hub functionality comes in — a mechanism that allows any WEBCON BPS application to be made available under an independent URL, which is a subdomain of the main portal.

It is worth implementing the Application Hub whenever there is a need to isolate a specific application created in WEBCON BPS from the main portal structure and make it available to a selected group of users (especially external users), who should only have access to the shared application without knowing it operates within the full WEBCON BPS portal.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays an increasingly important role in automating and streamlining business processes. Today's organizations are seeking to increase efficiency by implementing solutions that enable intelligent information processing. WEBCON BPS, as a platform that supports business process management, is constantly developing its capabilities in this area. The latest version, 2025 R2, introduced a number of AI functionalities that help users to analyze text, process recordings and interact with language models. This article describes these functionalities and provides examples of how to use them.

Version 2025 R1 of WEBCON BPS introduced two new functionalities: Workflow phases and Workflow actors, which aim to visually divide the steps and tasks assigned to them according to the stages of execution (phases) and the people responsible for their completion (actors). Together, these functionalities create an additional layer of visualization of the workflow, making it more transparent and easier to understand.
This article describes these functionalities using a sample workflow for the process of implementing a new accounting system.
