Create Subsite

This wizard is found in the SharePoint 2013 - Site Events node.

What does it do?

The Create Subsite wizard allows you to create a new subsite under an existing SharePoint site that has the K2 for SharePoint app registered. When making use of this wizard in a workflow, you can add lists, list items, libraries and documents to the site (not yet provisioned when designing the workflow) in the same workflow by using the reference to the new site in your subsequent workflow steps.

How is it used?

In a workflow, you may create a separate site, with associated lists, libraries, and user permissions, to display sensitive shipping orders to high-profile clients.

Specify Properties

Complete all required fields and any desired optional fields to define a site. A site reference can be created for future use by later workflow steps.
