Use
There are different ways of using K2 and K2 applications, depending on what you want to do and how the application was designed. For example, you may need to use the K2 Apps in K2 Workspace to launch an application; you might open a form through a URL and then complete and submit the form to start a workflow; a workflow might start automatically when something happens (for example, a new item is created in a SharePoint list); or you may receive an email notifying you about a task, with a link to open the task or potentially the option to action the task by replying to the email. If you are using a mobile device, you can also use the K2 Workspace for Mobile apps to interact with K2.
The table below lists some of the common ways you may want to interact with K2, with links to supporting documentation.
