Ok, I have a workflow built in SharePoint 2010, built in SharePoint Designer. It is set up to begin whenever a new item is created. The library is also set up to create new items based on email attachments. So the goal is for users to email the attachments to the library and the workflow takes over.
The workflow only works for me. The other people attempting to use it are listed as Full Control in the permissions. They are using the correct email address, and the library is creating the new items based on the attachments. The problem is that the workflow keeps saying error occurred.
The error says something about some columns needing different types of data, but when I email to the library it goes off without a hitch.
I am completely stumped as to what could be different about them sending the email instead of me.
Sorry I got kind of long winded, and thanks in advance for any help.
The system account is not allowed to initiate workflow on its own. There is a powershell that you need to run to enable system account to run workflow. Also try impersonation in workflow.
Here found it.
stsadm.exe –o setproperty –propertyname declarativeworkflowautostartonemailenabled –propertyvalue yes
Not sure what was wrong with it, but I just deleted it then rebuilt it and now it works. Don't think I did anything different so I'm not sure.

This new functionality - Link Preview / Verify Links Access / Verify Recipients Access - for MS Outlook desktop app, was ported from Web based app without changes to UI settings to turn off.
I have no idea how to skip it.
The execution of code is stuck on NewEmail.Send until the window receives "Send" or "Send Anyway" msg.
Of course, I was banging my head for 2 weeks trying to find a window by its name, etc...
and when I was in the middle of writing this plea for help one last idea came to my mind.
To comment out following line:
NewEmail.Display
It worked. From all of the sub-ideal solutions, this one is kind of satisfying. You can always put .Display in ErrorHandler. This line is here in first place, because many of macros are being run with task scheduler on VDIs/NPSAs, but some of them are being run by users, so .Display and .Send are always there as a comment or as a code.
I wonder if you have any other ways to manage this change until they will provide registry key or update the UI?
I am using VSTS and would like numerous people to get sent the notification when a work task is created.
I am creating a lot of stencils that can just automate and upload work tasks through the TEAM add-in in excel, but don't know how to make the "#mention" function work.
I have written all sorts of styles of syntax in the history field, then publish but nothing seems to work.
Has anyone figured this out?

The format is like:

I am working on a google apps script that is being published as a service, and accessed by multiple users via the UI.
The problem I'm having is that when one user causes a UserProperty to be set, all the users subsequently have their UserProperty set to that also. In other words it is acting like a ScriptProperty, rather than a UserProperty, in that it is not User specific. All users appear to cause this to happen.
I have studies my code and I just cannot see that it is anything to do with that. I make no reference to EffectiveUser, so only ActiveUser could ever be setting these values.
My guesses are:
- I am misunderstanding the scope of UserProperties
- My variables have somehow become corrupted (I have had problems with other UserProperties variables doing some odd stuff)
Has anyone experienced this, or does anyone have any suggestions?
Regards
Chris
UserProperties are better suited for scripts that run inside Spreadsheets and not published ones. The reason is that a published script runs under the user id of the user who created the script and not as the person who invokes it.
So, if the script is written by someone#example.com, then the UserProperty will be that of someone#example.com irrespective of who invokes the script. So, when one user writes a UserProperty, all others see the same value
I added an ItemAdded eventreceiver for a SharePoint document library programmatically and everything works fine on my computer. I checked in my code and my colleague got the latest code from our TFS, built the project and tested it.
On my colleague's computer the ItemAdded event triggers three times when he adds a document from the SharePoint GUI.
On my computer it only triggers once as it should.
Have you seen something similar and do you know how to solve it?
do you have the similar contenttypes on the list? I remember an issue that various events will be fired once per conenttype on the list.
Workaround is to check the contenttype of the current item by using
properties.ListItem[SPBuiltInFieldId.ContentTypeId]
This workaround is working fine in our solution. Somewhere on MSDN i found an article describing that issue. Actually I can't remember the exact link. Sry

I will recommend sharing code on ItemAdded.
Also as long it works ok on most of ur machines and issue is with 1 machine , you are good..
Just get a new site collection , retract-delete solution fully , IISReset and deploy the solution again
I found that after removing multiple upload link in upload popup, then it is calling itemadding event only once
I'm working on a Rails application. Two of my models are notes and attachments. The user can create notes and add attachments to them. This is standard stuff and I already have this working fine.
Currently, the user must create a note before they can add attachments to it. I'm looking to implement a more streamlined workflow for the user, similar to the familiar email workflow where you can add attachments to an unsaved email. However, the key is that I don't want the user to even have to save a draft of the note before the attachment can be added, and I want this unsaved note to be abandoned if the user navigates away (I don't want to have the additional complexity of unsaved/unpublished notes).
I know that when the note hasn't initially been saved yet, I can create the attachments without the link to the note, and then establish the link when the note gets saved. The part I'm drawing a blank on is how do I remove the unused attachments if the user breaks off the note creation process? Is there a hook that I'm missing that allows me to see that the user broke off?
Without such a hook, the first solution that comes to mind is a nightly cleanup script that runs via cron that would find all of the unattached attachments and remove them (perhaps filtering by attachments that have been created more than 24 hours ago). Is this the best solution?
There really isn't any kind of trigger to let you know when to clean those up, since a user can just leave the site without "logging out" or some other action. So that leaves you with a background job not attached to user action. In your case I think a nightly cron is nice and simple and would fit this situation well.
