Hi everyone, whenever you are working with times you are bound to run into issues. I think this has and will be a permanent truth when working with computers. I currently "just" want to write a date time to an item list column and won't to return the same value. Seems simple, but time zones

Hi everyone, assuming that I'm not doing anything wrong then this endpoints returns the collection of all attachments with their content. "https://$($WebconConfig.Hostname)/api/data/v7.0/db/$($WebconConfig.DatabaseId)/elements/$ElementId/attachments" $result = Invoke-WebconApiRequest -Method "G

Hi Ernst, while I haven't tried it you could add an action to the timer which set's the comment. Otherwise you could use this approach to check in a validate action if the user added a new comment: Get current comment https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2024/current-comment I'm not sure, wheth

Hi Michael, the only thing which comes to my mind would be an Application Proxy which doesn’t use passthrough for credentials. I don’t assume, that the default settings for the cookies have been modified. :) Thinking about cookies, the time zone/ date of the servers are ok? Best regards,

Hi Ernst, I would opt for the SDK option which was introduced with WEBCON 2025. Here’s an example for using certificates with SharePoint: https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2025/sharepoint-certificat-authentication-sdk Best regards, Daniel

It would really be great if WEBCON would provide an advanced Word action and it's on my wish list for a long time. :) User voice: Advanced Word generation using Aspose Template syntax https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/3697?messageid=3697 There's also an example article [external] Cr

Hi Klaus, if you are setting the value form an action you could test to set the value in the 'id#Display name' format and deactivate the 'Validate the typed values'. If the user enters the data it will (should) still be validated because it's not in the expected format. Best regards, Daniel

The change log of release 2026.1.6.198 from 2026-04-21 states that the alternative is now available: https://community.webcon.com/download/changelog/427?q=a55ed2f Quote: Added the ability to configure a SharePoint Online connection in the SharePoint Site Collection settings window using OAut

Hi, maybe there’s something I’m missing but I would use an item list with the columns and something like „Metadata“ for the first column which is not editable. I would then start with a fixed initialization. Maybe the metadata column would be a choose field so that you can use the id instead

Hi Michał, I've only an unlikely reason. Do you have multiple SQL server instances and WEBCON is using a different one which doesn't have the update applied? Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I think I used this dll in the past for working with Excel server side without installed Excel. https://www.nuget.org/packages/EPPlus/4.5.3.3 I'm unsure because I've primarily used the PowerShell module "ImportExcel" when working with worksheets. There's also later version but as of v

Hi Łukasz, did you have a chance to see how WEBCON is handling an item list with so many rows? I may be running in a similar scenario soon. :) Best regards, Daniel

Hi Sébastien, I have to admit, I don’t understand the issue. In general a process should behave the same in each environment. If you sometimes want to have a task and sometimes not, you would need a flow control as intermediate steps always need a task. If you don’t have separate environ

Hi Yordanka, this would be something for a custom authentication SDK. Here you find an example for a client certificate: https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2025/sharepoint-certificat-authentication-sdk Best regards, Daniel

Hi Dariusz, I noticed the same, each form rule warning is logged in the Windows Event Log. You have probably a form rule referencing a field which is not visible in the current step. Doesn't help much without additional information. :) Best regards, Daniel

Hi Balint, while I can't help you with this. You could create different Designer Studio shortcuts for each environment: WEBCON Designer Studio.exe" -protocol "webcon://https://YourBPSPortalAddress/&parameters=" _iedebug _admin There's also an option to "install" different Designer Studi

Hi Sébastien, I haven't tested it and my typically response to these kind of questions is another question: Did you try or have been even been interested in changing the Excel or Word icon? Most of the time I get no response at all. While I can understand the reasoning behind it a bit, I don

Hi Łukasz, I’m wondering whether it would be better to create a new workflow instance every 6 hours instead of refreshing the existing one. Whenever a timer is executes, you create a new version which may cause problems before long. I haven’t verified whether the maximum number of version has

Hi Franek, that’s a good idea. I used it myself in a report with an URL filter to filter a multi value choose field, but I didn’t make the connection. I also used the same approach until I realized that there’s a more readable way to. Instead of testing all cases middle, start, end, single va
