I have a Reusable Workflow Template with a Modified conditional start setting defined and it is assigned to a document library (through library Workflow Settings). The Reusable Workflow Template does not start at all when the Modified conditional start criteria is met on a document - doesn't start on a Created conditional start either;  I have to create a small list workflow in the same list that just calls the template workflow (the list workflow starts fine on the same Modified conditional start criteria (and on Created start as well)). Has anyone found a solution to this issue?  I am using Nintex Enterprise for SharePoint 2013:  Forms = v2.11.4.0; Workflow =v3.3.1.0.  I thought this issue with Conditional start was corrected in this version of Workflow but I may be mistaken. Note:  I found the solution for Site collection reusable workflow template conditional start but this does not seem to pertain to my issue (the length of the column name in my modified conditional start setting

We've got a Nintex Workflow with a flexitask and automatic approval after 30 days. The approval duration takes the holidays in consideration. My questions with this:1. Is there a list of those standard holidays that are taken into account? Cause those holidays probably can differ over country borders.2. Is it possible not to use any holiday with an automatic approval? Is it possible to empty the list of holidays? Also when there is a holiday during the period of approval, the time calculation switches from NOT working days to working days.

HI, Please help write the nintex workflow. I have 15 folders and each folder has sub folder in lib A. The workflow has to scan the lib A and move the excel files from sub folder which has status "Move" to folder in lib B. When the file in Lib B is rejected the workflow should move the file back to respective sub folder and change the status to "Ready " for users to update the file and change the status back to "Move" so that the workflow takes the action back to move the file back to lib BAny help is appreciated. 

Hi all, we are actually working on a project where we have to double sign a generated document using docusign. With 0365, sadly we are stuck with one recipient.The idea was to use the New NWC Docsign connector. For that we have to upload the document intnto NWC to passe the file as parameter into the worklfow.The procedure is briefly explained here : https://help.nintex.com/en-US/nwc/#cshid=4363 We keep trying with the O365 Web Request action, and it keeps returning an internal Server Error when we call the UPLOAD action.WIth the CREATE action , it works, it returns the token (OK)WIth the UPLOAD, we are stuck. Anyone has had the same needs recently?thanks for the help!Alex

Hi All!I have a Nintex flow on a Sharepoint library with documents that change quite often and each change needs to be approved by the management team, who do not always have the time to review and approve the change in the same day.For example scenario below:- Day 1: I have a major change that will go for approval and notification will be sent to the approvers - flow 1- Day 2: I have another major change for the same document as above - flow 2 triggered after flow 1 is complete- Day 4: I have another major change for the same document as above - flow 3 triggered after flow 2 is completeetc.- Day x: Reviewer goes and approves flow 1; flow 2 is triggered; Reviewer approves flow 2; flow 3 is triggered etc. My question is the following: Would it be possible to cummulate all changes from the previous flows (in the case above 1, 2) in the last flow (i.e. 3) so that the reviewer opens only task 3 - sees all "un-approved" changes and approves all of them at once?Thank you very much in advance

Hi guys, We have an issue and i am looking at various solutions to help, one being NWFC. We have a bunch of users that only exist in AAD, and do not have AAD premium licences. The intial thought was to offer up a page where users could reset passwords, with some basic security questions. My question is simple, and i don't need the HOW, i just need to know if Nintex could help here ? Any ideas ? 

Hi, I am trying to figure out how i can hide/show fields based on a click button (Yes/No). I have been able to hide a field based on 2 named controls; i.e. not(or(Type1,Type2)) this works well, although i need to do it for 4 selections rather than 2.

I apologize if this is a newbie question, but such is life. Scenario: SharePoint2016A developer completes/submits a form for a project review. The form contains a 'requested launch date' that must be at least 7 days from the current date. This is handled easily with rules/functions. The form is then picked up by a 'reviewer' who begins a review of the project. The review can take several days, and the reviewer will need to edit the form to update a 'review status' field and other details. All of this is communicated by sending notifications using a workflow. The issue is when a reviewer edits the form during the review cycle and gets within the 7 day window. The form cannot be saved due to the current validation. The date was fine initially, but the review can, and often will take several days to complete. The rule on the date control will always be triggered. Best approach to capturing request date, making sure it's at least currentDate+7, then comparing it to the submit date? Thanks!

How to implement single/multi level delegations in Assign a Task/ Start a task process actions in Nintex O365 Workflows

I have a lookup-list control on my form tied to a single line text field in SharePoint. In my javascript code, I get customer data from a database and set the default customer data on the form.  On the lookup list control (which is a drop-down list), I use jQuery to set the val() of the control.  This is reflected in the form and I thought it was OK.  When I save the form, nothing is saved to the field. Since this a complicated form, I thought I'd test it out on a regular list.To replicate my environment, create a custom list in SharePoint.Open the form in Nintex form editor and delete the Title text field.Place a lookup list control on the form and configure it so that the value is tied to the Title field.Test your form so that when you create a new item, you get a Drop down list.  To test my javascript, I wrote the following code:NWF$(document).ready(function(){            var ddlShipVia = NWF$("#" + tbTitle);             ddlShipVia.on("change", function(e){                console.lo

I want to trigger a workflow when a user updates a list item with a checkbox being changed from unchecked to checked.  The approach I was taking was to set a conditional startup option where the previous value of the checkbox equals No and the current value of the chekbox equals Yes.  This works on all newly created items in the list, but I'm having trouble with existing items.  For those, although the checkbox looks unchecked, its actual value is null.  So the previous value of the checkbox doesn't "Equal" No, but it also doesn't "Not equal" No.  It looks like Nintex Workflow doesn't allow me to look for a null value.  I can only choose Equals or Not equals as the operator, and only Yes or No as the value. 

I have a problem with SharePoint and Nintex 2016, after the pause action, do not sent any task and notifications!as soon as disable pause, i have received task and notification.

Good morning,I have some workflows that show the graphical prieview correctly and some that do not. After searching here it appears the common fix is to delete anything disabled in the workflow. The problem is there is nothing disabled that I can find. If this matters, I took a known working workflow, made some updates, saved it as a new workflow and published. The original will show the prieview, the updated revision will not. Any suggestions on where to look?Thanks in advance.

Hi All,We are facing this issue in production intermittently.In UAT it was all working fine and when testing in production also we dint face any error. When users started using the form workflow is giving the error "The Workflow Could Not Update The Item, Possibly Because One Or More Columns For The Item Require A Different Type Of Information". In some blogs i read that we have to use "Commit pending changes" action before update item action. Even after using this we are still facing the issue. Please help us resolving this issue ASAP. Regards,Hema

When I open the task form of nintex workflow, the error message said "Server Error in '/' Application: Error during serialization or deserialization using the JSON JavaScriptSerializer. The length of the string exceeds the value set on the maxJasonLength property." Is this mean I have to increase the related value in the web config file? Where should I find this exceeding value and how to extend this. If there anyone had this issue and could you please guide me where should I configure it? Thanks.

IN Nintext Workflow + Forms (on-premises) I'm trying to build a dynamic string containing up to 3 hyperlinks. In a Build string action, I construct a HTML hyperlink to a task response form, as follows: <a href="{Common:WebUrl}/Lists/Workflow Tasks/EditForm.aspx?ID={WorkflowVariable:idTaskIDBranch1}">{WorkflowVariable:txtSoortActie1}</a>  and store the output in a single line text variable linkTask. I do this 3 times, so I have 3 separate workflow variables linkTask1, linkTask2 and linkTask3, each containing a hyperlink. I then want to build combine these 3 variables into a single multiline text field variable, as follows: {WorkflowVariable:linkTask1}<br/>{WorkflowVariable:linkTask2}<br/>{WorkflowVariable:linkTask3} This variable is then written to a SP list in a multiline text field (type Enhanced). PROBLEM: only the last hyperlink {WorkflowVariable:linkTask3} is created in the multiline text field. Links 1 and 2 two are 'ignored'. The end result is like: <br

I want to create JIRA Issue using Nintex Workflow.  There is a posting on this community that provides example for using JIRA SOAP API but I can't find anything for REST API.  I am using JIRA 7.10 and the SOAP API was removed.  I am using Sharepoint 2013 and Nintex Workflow 2013. 

Is there a way to set focus on a specific control (textbox) when the form opens in edit mode?

I need to install the latest version of Nintex Workflows. But it tells me that the application is already started. I have since uninstalled Nintex workflows following instructions downloaded from your site. Now when I do a Get_SPFeatures in PowerShell it shows me 7 Nintex features, but these are not visible in central administration and if I try to delete them using PowerShell it tells me they are not found. See attached PowerShell screenshot.

Hi, I’m new to Nintex Forms. When a request is submitted an admin of the team will review and assign the request to someone. I have a People option for "Assigned to" and "Assigned by". If the "Assigned to" needs to be changed/reassigned how can this be done and to also update the “Assigned by”. It is not obvious to me at the moment and I have read through the forms and tutorials. Apologies if I missed it and appreciate the help.
