not sure what I did wrong on the xtension setup[WorkflowExecution.TypeCasting.UnknownCasting] The specified value is unknown.it is a simplehttps://my website/workflow/services/nintex/dev.svc/GetCustomerName/{customer id}and return json “customer name”using api-key for security 

To store who has completed a task, when and store the comments, I run 2 loops:one on the tasks with same workflow instance ID one on the tasks responsesWith the 1st loop, I get almost everything: the task ID, the assignee, the outcome, who has completed and when. Unfortunately, I cannot get the field values from the form (above all, a comment field) and the express approval comment.That’s why I run the 2nd loop. With this loop, I get the field values from the form. I use the form URL to calculate the task ID and I complete my history log table because I have this task ID.I’ve discovered that the form URL becomes empty when the assignee completes the task by express approval. How can I get the task ID to store the express approval comment on the right place in my history log?Can someone help? Thanks.

Hello,I have recently inherited a K2 application.  I have a database with 15 views copied to a K2 database.  I think some of them are not being used, but I have no easy way to prove or disprove my theory.  Does anyone know of a way to search through objects to see if they reference a specific table or view?  Even a data source would be helpful.Thank you,Chris

Hi Team,I am working with Nintex Automation Cloud (NAC) forms and have created a custom plugin that fetches user/customer data from an API and displays it in a searchable dropdown.When a user selects a record from the dropdown, the plugin successfully returns the selected data in JSON format.Example output:[ { "CustomerName": "AGILE ARBOR PTY LTD", "CustomerNo": "1059530", "PhoneNo": "02 6334 2544", "Address": "344 LIMEKILNS ROAD" }]However, I am facing an issue while trying to use this output inside the form controls.My requirement: When a user selects a record from the plugin, I want to: Display the selected values in other form controls (e.g., Customer Name, Phone, Address) Save the JSON data into a SharePoint column  

Hello,While testing our upgrade to 5.9 (FP4), we have noticed that dropdown lists no longer jump to an option when the first letter is typed. For example, if we had a list of US States, in previous versions typing ‘H’ would jump straight to Hawaii. In 5.9 it seems to only select the first ‘blank’ option. Is this by design or is it a bug?

Hi,  have anyone got advise on how to create a MS Teams Calendar event based on a MS Exchange calendar item created by a Nintex workflow? I managed to create a workflow that create creates a MS Exchange calendar entry  based on fields a user submits via a Nintex form but I don't see a way to also provide the users who cannot physically attend, a link to a teams meeting?

Hi everyone, I’m currently working on a Nintex App where I have a large number of Connection Objects (tables/views), where most end-users are assigned to the Standard Site Permission Set. Currently, under Site Settings > Connection Access, I have to manually select every single object and configure the "Object Permissions" (Create, Read, Update, Delete) one by one. This is becoming very tedious as the project grows. If a new object is added, the developer has to manually remember to go back into the Site settings to enable it, or the App fails to pull data.My Question: Is there a way to "Enable All" by default or bypass this specific Site-level permission check?I am already managing my security and access control via App Permissions. I would prefer for the Site Connection to simply "trust" the App's permissions rather than requiring this secondary, granular configuration for every individual object.Has anyone found a workaround, a "Select All" toggle, or a way to set the permission

Is there any functionality to disable the ‘Copy Form Data’ option in Nintex Automate.  

  There is no way to re-size it, and yes the browser is full screen…. 

Hi there, I want to retrieve multiple rows from the SPO list based on specific conditions and display them in a Nintex form. The goal is to allow end users to edit the row data directly in the Nintex form and then update the changes back to the SPO list. I have a few ideas, but I would like to know what the standard or best practices are. Use case: When the Nintex form loads, it should query the SPO list based on certain conditions, such as status being "In progress" or a specific date. I expect about 5 to 10 rows to match these criteria in SPO list, and users should be able to edit any of these rows and update them as needed.

Can you create an OOF that excludes certain workflow processes? I have sensitive financial information on a certain workflows where OOF should not be applicable.I note there is an exception feature, but that requires to nominate another person to delegate the task to - and won’t allow the original FQN.Any suggestions? And oh, the OOF needs to be created automatically (via a workflow) using smartobjects (or any other means).

HiBecause of the upcoming deprecation of Exchange Online EWS I’m testing moving our environments over to using MSGraph.I upgraded to 5.9 successfully.  Ran the Exchange Online Migrate wizard successfully and email works.  However, it appears when I look at the Connection String editor for mail configuration that its still using EWS as it didn’t add the MSGraph settings.  I checked and the Azure Enterprise app was added successfully with the correct permissions.  The resource shows correctly in Management.  I tried following the article about manually configuring some of the connection string settings but email then failed.   Is the Migrate wizard supposed to take care of all of the settings or am I missing something?  I’ve restored the VM and retried 4 times so far without any luck. https://help.nintex.com/en-US/nintexautomation/icg/5.8.1/Content/Configure/ExchangeOnline/ExchangeOnlineManual.htm

Is it possible for the Javascript Custom Controls to access the expression and Validation patterns libraries. As i cant see anything in the documentation on how to interact with them.

Is it possible to do this?  

I have downloaded and installed the Material Design 3 custom controls from the Nintex gallery into our K2 5.9 test instance, and am seeing some issues with the rendering of controls.Firstly in View design, it does not seem to render icons at all - it just shows the name of the icon. This I can live with, although not ideal for authoring. Also row heights do not increase with the control heights, so it is not always possible to view the full control - especially with Cards. When you try to select the controls to edit the properties, you must click right at the top of the table cell, and only a slither seems to be selected, rather than the whole control itself - I assume this is what is preventing the row height from increasing.Probably most annoying is that not all icons are displaying correctly or anything like how they show in Google fonts - for instance the ‘person_book’ icon simply displays as a person icon next to a book icon. I assume I am missing a <link> somewhere? Adding

Hi everyone,We’re running Nintex workflows on SharePoint Server Subscription Edition (SE), and since our migration, several workflows are not running smoothly. They fail intermittently with a generic “Error Occurred” message. The detailed error states:“The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.”This message doesn’t clearly indicate which field is causing the issue. What’s unusual is that if we ask users to delete the file and re‑upload it, the workflow completes successfully afterward.Has anyone seen this behavior on SharePoint SE post‑migration? Any ideas on what might cause this or how to identify the problematic column?Any guidance or troubleshooting tips would be really appreciated.
