Is there a reason that there is no layout for Nintex Mobile for Android (v.2.11.3.10)? Would it be possible to create a Nintex Mobile for iPhone form, change the target user agents to nintex-mobile-wp, nintex-mobile-iphone, and nintex-mobile, then remove those from the Nintex Mobile Phone form to effectively have an Android version?  The form is rendered very differently between some android devices and i need to modify an android form exclusively so as not to alter the other working versions. 

I'm upgrading Nintex forms 2013 to the May 29th, 2018 version. It was a brand new install and we were already on April 19, 2018 patch. So only 1 patch behind.When running the installer file it is stuck now for 3 hours now doing nothing.. I've checked the SharePoint timer services and they are running on the server. I'm using the farm account which was used when we first did the installation, it is being run on the same WFE, same permissions.. I've ran the same installer on Prod and it worked fine. So yes, it could be the environment, but any idea what could be causing it? Thoughts please!Preparing files.........Detected SharePoint 2013 is installedInstalling Nintex Forms...Restarting Web Servers and Timer Service...Resetting Server(s):UAT-APP0UAT-WEB0Stopping Timer service on server UAT-WEB0.Starting Timer service on server UAT-WEB0.Updating Solution Core ComponentsResetting Server(s):UAT-APP0UAT-WEB0Upgrade job for solution Core Components (NintexForms2013Core.wsp) is not created yet

I have been assigned a project to migrate InfoPath forms to Nintex. These forms are linked to a SQL database. Is there a way to link the Nintex form directly to the SQL server?

Nintex for SharePoint Subscription On-Premise - Edition Comparison as of 7/25/2016.

Hi there,I've created a Nintex Cloud form as the start event.It's got multiple pages gathering various bits of data i.e. Company Name, Trading Name, Contract Date etc etc.what I want to do on the final step is to display a properly formatted form that can be signed.Am I right in thinking I need to generate a document? How do I get this to pop up on the next screen in a way that can be signed? Is there a way of building a string consisting of data. One of my challenges in the start event is build a string that consist of variables.End result something along the lines of:i.e."Pursuant to our conversation of [[varToday'sDate]] this letter will serve as written confirmation that the agreement between [[varCompanyName]] T/A [[varTradingName]] has agreed to supply.. etc.Your Name [[varName]]Position [[varPosition]]Signature"Thank you in advance,Will

I have some workflows with Flexi Tasks, setup as Lazy Approvals.  We have decided that we need to add some reminders as users are not responding to the emails in an appropriate time frame.  I am good with setting up the time and number of reminders.  What I am not sure on is the Subject/Body.  Can I leave these fields blank?  If I do, will it just resend the Subject/Body in the main section of the Flexi Task?   If not, what is the best way to get the user to respond to the Lazy Approval flexi-task?  If they get the reminder email, will they be able to respond to that email, or will they need to go find the original email and respond to that one?  If they need to respond to the original, is there anyway in the reminder setup tab I can put in the body when the original email was sent?

Hello!Is this a bug, did I do something wrong, or is this Nintex's idea of how it should look?I created a demand workflow and I'm accustomed to seeing the stages in left to right sequential order.  However, Current stage is all the way on the right and the next stage is all the way on the left.  When I advance to the next stage, it gets the sequence right, but I'm uncomfortable with the layout and wondering why the deviation from the default layout.  Attached are some screen shots. My workflow stages are in orderProposal->Initiation->Planning->Execution->Monitoring and Controlling->Closing   

Hi All,When I am executing below request using Forms web request control, it returns (401) Unauthorized. But when I try executing same using browser, it works !Web Request :But, verifying ULS logs shows this : 'Claims Windows Sign-In: Sending 401 for request **** because the user is not authenticated and resource requires authentication'.This works absolutely fine in SP 2013. But after migrating to SP 2016, we are seeing this.Thanks.

I updated Nintex Forms from 2.10.0.2 to 2.11.3.0 on my Sharepoint.After the update I noticed that the size of several controls in my form had changed.Most fields are ok, but Choice Controls and Date Controls are not.I have quite a lot of forms and changing the size of all affected controls would be a lot of work.Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

I am working on a project where the client wants to be able to select from saved Templates. within the form though there is a repeating section with lines of data, now I'm able to get all the Template data as well as repeating section xml from the selected Template via lookups/varialbes/Web Request (I tried all to see if it would make a difference...) but unable to load the XML data into the Repeating section control since it seems you are only able to connect this to a list field of type multiple lines of text and nothing else no Variable or form control, surely though there must be a way to do this.I know that it can be done through extensive java script using Classic forms but 1. I don't know JavaScript very well and 2. I would very much prefer to use Responsive forms.I was then thinking that there must be a way to get the xml and store it in a field or variable and save (so the xml is written to a list field) without closing the form so I can then read the xml from the connected fi

Hi all,I have a form with several containers in it. Some of these containers should be hidden as soon as a specific hook ("Print view") is set (like in this case the "Customer Data" container is hidden in print view):Unfortunately this is only working in edit mode. As soon as I switch to view mode, all containers are visible. But I am pretty sure that this has already been working in the past... I checked all , if there is something like "inViewMode", overruling my hide controle rule, but there isn't.Does anyone else has this problem? Is it maybe a NINTEX ‌?Cheersmai-kel‌

I have a form designed in Nintex O365. Within the form are several controls that are choice columns -- some allow only a single choice; others allow all that apply. How can I take the information displayed on the form and upload it into my SharePoint list?I'm still learning the ins and outs of Nintex so the easier the better. Or lots of screen shots.Thank you.

Hello all,I have created a workflow for a document library which utilizes a State Machine.  The workflow initiator needs to fill in several required fields for the workflow to execute (due date, Checker, Approver).Ideally I would like the initiator to click workflow and have the workflow prompt them to fill out these fields (as opposed to them needing to update the item properties in the library, save, and then go to click workflow, or having a separate "assign a task" action after they start the workflow.Is there an action that will pop up a form prompting the initiator to fill in information right from the start workflow screen?Thanks very much,-Reid

We have a scenario  where I am consuming web services and the output should be in different controls( textboxes, calculated value etc.) I would like to distribute the Ajax output values onto the different controls.

I'm working on what I thought would be a simple workflow as it's similar to another workflow I built using the Query List function, but it's not producing the desired results, and I'm at a loss as to why.The basics:1. There's a list of Engineering Projects, with the following metadata relevant to this problem (Project ID and Active/Completed)2. Each week I'll be receiving a .csv file of projects that have completed - the data just consists of the Project IDs of any completed projects so it's one column. This file will save to a SharePoint Library.3. I need to compare the projects in the weekly report against the projects in the Engineering Project List.  When there's a match, the workflow should set the Active/Completed column for that list item to Completed.The approach:1. I've parsed the .csv file and saved the Project IDs to a collection.2. Then I use a For Each Loop to check each collection item against the Engineering Project List for a match.3. When I enter in a value I know exis

HIMany nintex workflows erroring after pause or commit changes, wait until actions. It seems to occur only on certain days for all of that day. This is the third time its happen over the year.The error message is just "an error have occurred".I am having to terminate and then manually restart the workflows which is not ideal. I am receiving errors every minute, so this is taking a lot of time.Any ideas?

I am using responsive layouts on SharePoint Online and I want a panel to be visible for a particular SharePoint group members only (GMI is the group name). So I am trying to create a disable rule by using not(fn-IsMemberOfGroup(GMI)). But apparently it is not recognising the current user (display user) so it is disabling the panel all the time no matter who the user is. Am I missing a step here?

HiI have a list of approvers - 1st Approver, 2nd Approver and back up approvers.  If the 1st Approver does not respond within a time period, it needs to get delegated and then to the back up approvers.  Can you please help show me how to do this.  I know about delegation but I am not sure how to add a second delegate or to set the order.  Lazy approval has not been activated in our company.I look forward to hearing from you.RegardsRenee

A set of graphical switches with checkbox functionality, but a lot prettier.    The state (On/Off) can be set by either clicking the control to toggle, initialised in the designer, by an expression or set by a rule action (eg Transfer Data).  The control comes with 14 inbuilt types and can be extended by referencing a smartobject set up by the user.     On states for the 14 standard types:    Off states:    Properties    The Switch State is the control's Boolean value, which will preview in the Designer.  The image will show in its native width/height, unless you specify a different height in which case it will scale accordingly. I suggest if you need one of a different size use the custom SMO (see below) and use one in its native height; scaled graphics look a bit ugly.  Visible and Enabled have the usual meanings and the control takes an expression which must evaluate to a boolean. String values such as 'false', '0', 'Off' will work as well as true boolean values.  The Icon Set prope

A weird one today that I'm guessing is just something I'm doing wrong.I have a workflow with a form variable "Send to" (Choice field with options "POC" and "QC Inspector"):And than a Run If action...At some point the workflow stopped working. After some troubleshooting I started logging the output of the "Send to" variable to a history log and am seeing it mysteriously wrapped in a "<Value>" tag...If I change my Run If to "contains" instead of "equal" (e.g. variable contains "POC" v. variable equals "POC") my workflow runs again.Does anyone know why or how this form value would begin returning wrapped in a "<Value>" tag?I'm using an unmodified OOTB InfoPath form:Thanks!
