New Post: Grant permissions

$
0
0
HI Guys,

I have recently migrated to SharePoint 2013 and i am now using Claimed based authentication.

Now initially i had problems with getting this to work but everything is working now, i am struggling with 1 part of the workflow but i think its more a infopath problem than the actual solution purely because everything else in the workflow is working.

Now in the step thats failing i am granting permission to a user "Username that's stored in a field"

If i hardcode this field in the workflow with a username then it works 100% , i am pretty sure this is a claims base authentication problem.

just for noting this was working perfectly in SharePoint 2010 using classic mode authentication.

Anybody come across this before ?

I know this is an old thread but we are running 2007 and I def need this. Can anyone tell me if the code still has to run with the current user permissions or can I assign permissions using the code from a user who has "contribute" rights to the list? We are submitting InfoPath forms and they want to set the form to be viewable only by the submitter and another group, not anyone viewing the list.

Hey kirksec -

I'm running into a similar situation as yourself. How did you get it working on your SP 2013 farm?

Thanks!

The ImnName property works. You have to spell it exactly like that.

Note that the UserName property for SharePoint 2010 no longer reliably returns the username. We've found that sometimes this is blank for some of our users. But the Name property never seems to be empty. Name returns DOMAIN/username. So in workflows we have replaced looking up the UserName property with looking up the Name property and then stripping out the domain by using the "Extract substring from index of string" action afterwards. In our case the domain is 4 characters, so we start extracting at 6.

Yes it is. I just imported the WSP file. I found a walkthrough here.

jaxsharepoint.blogspot.com/2013/06/deploying-wsp-to-sharepoint-2013.html

The feature name was SharePoint 2007 workflows.

Does anyone know that if I get this wsp uploaded, will it work in a SharePoint Online environment?

Created Unassigned: Missing assembly reference error on publishing workflow in SharePoint 2013 Designer [16953]

Hi,

I have installed the latest wsp and enabled the feature in my site. I have created a sample workflow with the action 'Send email with list item attachments', when publishing the workflow, I am getting the following error,

(0, 10) The type or namespace name 'DP' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?))
(19, 16) The type or namespace name 'DP' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?))

I have checked, the dll is deployed to GAC and safe controls are registered to Web.config file.

Any help would be appreciated..

Thanks

Created Unassigned: Failed to install Custom Workflow Activities (0.5.0 Alpha version) on Sharepoint 2010 farm with multiple web servers [16960]

I tried to install the Custom Workflow Activities on Sharepoint 2010 farm with multiple web servers and did not install. DP.Sharepoint.Workflow.wsp shows error in solution store. I have 2 web servers and one 1 application server in my server farm. However SharePoint designer 2010 workflow shows all Custom Workflow Activities but nothing happens when i try to use any of the available custom activity.

I am trying to use the "Copy List Item Extended Activity" to copy list item from one site list to another site list. Custom Workflow Activities works fine on single/standalone Sharepoint server but not on multiple web servers.

Please help.

Thanks.

We just installed this feature set but it was a little difficult to sort. One thing that was not mentioned was that to get this action working for a simple case I needed to select my Sp list where it asks for "this item" then field=Attachments and Value = yes. Then it picked up the attachment that was attached to my list item. Hope this helps others. Or, if you have multiple forms you can use field=Attachments and do lookup on title. This is really a terrific addition that we'll use a lot. thanks phill

Hi I keep getting this error for sending email.

I'm having the same problem. I also manually added the section to the web.config files of all three servers in my farm and did IIS resets. When I select the action in SPD, nothing happens. I'm wanting to use the same activity - Copy List Item Extended Activity.

I can confirm this does work on Sharepoint 2013. Along with what everyone has posted in this thread, i had to run the following command to enable declartive workflows.
stsadm.exe –o setproperty –propertyname declarativeworkflowautostartonemailenabled –propertyvalue yes

When I have the Overwrite option selected on the extended list copy it doesn't seem to matter. I can run the workflow the same item and it will double up the list I am copying to.
