Hi All,I have a workflow that uses the 'Create item' to make a new document and save it to a specific Document Library. I then want to use the URL Path of this new document in another part of the workflow so after 'Create item' I use 'Query List' to filter out the new document and then save the URL Path as a variable.The document name is 'Programme Board Agenda - Dec 18' (the Dec 18 is a variable asked on the start form which naturally changes between months). Therefore, no two documents will have the same name.When it comes to the 'Query List', I use the following filters on it to pick out the specific document:The 'Programme Board Month' is the variable asked at the start from of the workflow, it is always in the format 'MON YYYY' (e.g Dec 2018). This then saves the 'URL Path' in another variable.However, at this point it doesn't save it within the new variable. It just remains blank. I've found this out by adding the 'Log in history list' workflow action after the query list but it

Hello everyone,I am using assign a task/flexi task to get some answers from recipients. However, some recipients when they answered the form and submitted it, the workflow ends in an error saying "XML not found", but the nintex form has clearly saved the inputs since when I look at it, it is right there.Anyone got the same problem?

I've got a Calculated field called: calcID with dynamic string number displayed, example result: 12.I need to add this to a button's onclick event, which opens up a newform.aspx in dialog and that calcID is added to the URL as a query string parameter. ?CID=12I've got the dialog opening up with a newform.aspx but have no idea how to add the value from the calcID.Client click:javascript:portal_openModalDialog('/sites/Programs/res/Lists/Contractors%20Charge%20Codes/NewForm.aspx?CID=+calcID+');javascript:return false;So the value CID=xxxx is to be in the URL Query string, so it can be added to the newform where a field called CID is displayed. So all I need is a way to store that 12 in a variable and add it to the CID parameter.My code in the Custom Javascript to display the dialog box is as shown below.The Dialog box displays but the variable for thiscalcID does not. I believe it's to do with the JavaScript syntax formatting of the URL. I am not that great with JavaScript, so any help wo

How to restrict the People Picker Control (on Mobile Apps) to a specific SharePoint Group.We're running SharePoint 2013 on Prem.I'm able to get the Desktop version of Nintex forms to respect the restriction but the Mobile App doesn't seem to do so.The TESTGroup (SharePoint group) contains 2 people. With the above settings, I want to be able to select from only those 2 people (actual application will be ~500 people).Desktop people picker correctly resolves only those 2 entries.Unfortunately, the mobile app people picker still searches the entire forest.

Hello All - I am looking to create a page for users to quickly view their active requests and be able to edit it (via the edit form) on the same page. Usually within InfoPath, this can be accomplished by connecting the list and the form webparts and telling the form the get the data from the list. This would allow users to select any item and the form pull in all of the specific details for that item. I have my edit form and desired list webparts on the page and attempting to connect them so that the edit form shows the details for the selected item, but am running into issues. The form webpart requires a Item ID to know what to display (makes sense), but we won't know that until the user selects one to open. Is there something that I should enter in to that required field?Thanks in advance!

I have a lookup field in my list (called Request ID) which, of course, when I click on it, I am taken to the item in the lookup list.  I'd like to provide this same functionality/link when I send an email using 'Send Notification' in my workflow.  In the email, when I insert a link and provide the field in the address section of the link, it does not provide the correct url.  Any ideas?

My client has External Content Type lists that provide reference data for other SharePoint lists. We would like to create Nintex Forms with Cascading drop down controls that use data from the External List. This is a wide list with all of the necessary columns, but no lookup fields. Is it possible do this without any code?

Hi,Is there any planned date of Nintex forms & workflows for SharePoint 2019?Thanks,Krishna.

Expression: (?<="FacilityId":")[dw-]+(?=",)I also tried: (?<="FacilityId":")([^"]*)(?=")Input: {"FacilityId":1,"PatientId":2323,"FirstName":"TEST"Result: No matchesI'm trying to parse some returned JSON but I'm having a hard time doing so. I need an expression that will return the value of 1 from FacilityId, or value 2323 from PatientId. I looked at some other posts in the Nintex forums and thought I was getting somewhere but I can't seem to get it 100%. Can someone help me clear this up?

I just want to know if Nintex works with document library to create forums. I know you can use it with list.Thanks

How do i get the Workflow Task ID of a newly created Workflow item?What I'm trying to do is get the attachments that are added inside a workflow. I used a custom .js to get attachments added on the initial form but i need to do a list lookup (i think) of the Workflow Tasklist to be able to bend that .js to get the attachments kept there. I tried to do a query list where the related content = the request title... that didnt work, then i tried a related content 'contains' the request title and that almost works. Can anyone get me closer?Thanks!

hey,first day, first question:After a new installation of a SharePoint 2013 onPrem integration level farm I am not seeing all workflow constants. i am only see the "not sensitive" constants, the "sensitive = yes"/ "type = credential" are not display anymore. If I´ll go via central administration to manage workflow constants and try to create a new there is always an error:"A constant with this name already exists. Please choose a different name."I tried to export the workflow constants via NWAdmin cmd but in this XML file are also only the "not sensitive" constants.Does anybody have a answer for that?Thank you and best regards,Yannick Appel

Hi,We have the following situation: At our customer environment site there is swiss german (de-ch) as the regional settings. Decimal numbers are separated using "," (instead of "."). This is working fine using textboxes. If we do a calculation on a nintex form and link the calculated field to a decimal column the decimal separator is ignored and we get only the numbers as stored as value. Eg. 0,623 is stored as 623 . This gives us completely wrong calculations over all :-(Is this a bug in Nintex forms?ThanksRoman

I'm working with SharePoint 2010. I have a task list containing a regular task content type and a summary task content type, which is basically a folder. This allows a major task to have sub tasks under it, stored in a folder. I would like to update the folder name via workflow after creation. But the "Name" field is unavailable. I tried using Title, but it doesn't do anything to the folder name.

Hi All,We have SP 2013 with Nintex Workflows and Forms.I see quite few errors in the log as follows:"6398 - Critical from Microsoft-SharePoint Products-SharePoint Foundation: The Execute method of job definition Nintex.Forms.SharePoint.LiveForms.Service.LiveFormsJobDefinition (ID bd2b3cf4-0289-456d-9834-2e6903d025f5) threw an exception. More information is included below. The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 00:00:59.5310707. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout."Any suggestions how to troubleshoot that?Any help welcome.Thanks All!

I'm working on a workflow and nintex form that I'll do my best to describe.The Nintex Form is separated into sections. The initiator fills out section 1, once submitted kicks off the workflow which passes it on to 4 people for approval. Once approved the second section becomes enabled. This sections is basically a check list with each line item having a different person responsible for signing off. I need my workflow to do nothing here. The possible outcomes at this point are that everyone signs off, clicks save, and the workflow continues to the next section with similar logic OR there is an issue on the check list, the reason is filled out rejection button selected which would notify the Initiator of the issue at which point it would start that checklist section over. Questions: I'm thinking about keeping this button driven within the form as it seems to be the most straight forward way with continuous edits. Is this wrong?How can I pause a workflow and wait for a button click or sho
