Issue
Internet Explorer has some special settings that can cause issues with iFrames (Workspace work items, Forms being displayed in SharePoint).
Microsoft Edge should not see this issue.

Troubleshooting Steps
- First, check your Internet Browser settings by going to Internet Settings in IE. Navigate to Security. Make sure that your K2 Website is in Trusted Sites. If you are using K2 Cloud, make sure that both your Vanity URL and your KUID URL (.onK2.com and your KUID which is a 7 digit identifier for your environment) are added to browser settings.
- Also, to see if this is the issue, feel free to turn off Protected Mode for the Internet Zone.
- Now you may need to do this for all users in your company, so they do not need to do it individually and to make sure it is not overwritten by Group Policy. You can do this by forcing an update to the Group Policy. The following article goes into a little more detail. Microsoft Link
