TypeCasting.UnknownCasting when passing Nintex O365 collection to Nintex Automation Cloud workflow

When I pass a Nintex WF for O365 collection using action "Start Workflow in Nintex Automation Cloud" the cloud instance fails to start with "The specified value is unknown. [Error Code: TypeCasting.UnknownCasting]". I’ve tried a few options, but the fact that Nintex for O365 determines the start collection type as text seems to prevent anything from working. In Nintex for O365 it works. You can also cast between serialised json, to collections, and back again.How do I pass this existing collection into NCA? Background - this is a cloud component ‘GetFiles’ WF that is replacing the same functionality in a Nintex for O365 WF, so it needs to be able to be called by both existing Nintex for O365 WFs and new Cloud WFs while we transition to cloud.

Promapp SSO issue - error message AADSTS50105

Hello,I’m wondering whether I can please pick your brains? I have set up a new user in Process Manager but when that team member tries to log in by using our SSO mechanism, the following error number pops up:“AADSTS50105: Your administrator has configured the application Nintex Promapp [xxxxxx] to block users unless they are specifically granted ('assigned') access to the application.”Have you experienced this before?Thanks, I appreciate any feedback.Regards,Carlos

NWC Deployments Best Practices for Multiple Environments

OverviewAfter creating an NWC workflow, it must be deployed for consumption. There are 3 different approaches one can take when deploying an NWC workflow.Use OOTB UI deployment with one environment. Not recommended, especially if the solution being deployed has several connections and each could have different environment configurations.Note: It’s also possible to export/import from/to the same environment, as you are able to set a new name as “import time”. Use the OOTB UI deployment to export/import to multiple environments. Recommended and outlined below. Use NWC's API to handle deployments in bulk to multiple environments. Powerful automated approach for solutions with multiple workflows, but proceed with caution, as the aforementioned deployment tool has yet to be fortified and undergo rigorous testing. This has been tested w/about 100 workflows and appears to work well. The only shortcoming of using the API is you cannot import a workflow if one with the same name already exists,

Process Approver - problem with update to approver prior to publish

HiHow do we get the process approval to move to the correct approver?We have a process map that is still in draft form - it has not yet been published (eg version 0.13).We have the process approval module, the draft process was saved and sent for approval.Subsequently, we identified the listed owner was incorrect, so edited the process which withdraws the approval submission, updated to the owner, and then resubmitted it for approval.The RACI shows the correct owner, as in the one we updated it to, however for some reason the process has been resubmitted with the original owner for approval, and this is visible in the change log.The group the process sits in does not have a champion listed, nor approver tagged to the group.I have invalidated the process and group cache, however the ‘processes for approval’ tab shows the process is still sitting with the person originally listed as approver. The originally listed owner has no interest or desire to approve this on behalf of the new (and

Trigger workflow to start when item is modified any time a Date form control is changed

How do you trigger a workflow to run anytime a Date control value changes? This could be changing from one date to a different date, or from a blank date to a filled in date.I believe this was possible to do in Nintex Workflow for SharePoint 2013 as it had a “compare to previous value” option you could select. In Nintex Workflow for O365 that option is not there for some reason. I have tried this simple approach shown in screenshot with no luck.Is there any way to pull this off? Any chance the “compare to previous value” option could be added to this version of Nintex?

Unlinking a glossary term when it's not applicable in a certain context in Process Manager

Is there a method of disconnecting a glossary term when it appears out of context? TO and CAN are used in our business for Traffic Officer and Commercial Advice Note. sadly, “to” and “can” are frequently used in Task and Activity text and do not relate to the glossary terms in question, however, they will still be underlined because they are seen as a glossary term.When such an issue occurs with a SYSTEM, they can be unlinked so they do not show. ie - we use software called Share and Confirm, but if these verbs are used in an task or activity description, they can be unlinked from the systems of the same name.Why is a similar function not available with glossary terms? It is causing us a real headache

In-place OS Upgrade Windows Server 2012R2 to 2019

Does anyone have experience in doing an in-place upgrade of Windows Server from 2012R2 to 2019 on their SQL box? We have not touched DB encryption at all and are concerned that there may be issues in decrypting the data after the OS upgrade. Is encryption performed by a machine key and would this change during an OS upgrade?

Kryon version 19.1 is not available for download.

My client intends to upgrade to the latest version of RPA from Kryon version 19.1. To minimize potential issues in the production environment, I aim to set up a test environment using version 19.1 and proceed with the upgrade there first. Unfortunately, I've been unable to locate the download link for version 19.1. Could you please guide me on how to download this specific version?
