I've tried to get the Multiple Managed Metadata field with lookup function in Nintex Forms. However, it returned[[object Object]]How can I parse this to get the real value?Here is my query:lookup("ListName", "ID", "NamedControl", "MultipleManagedMetadataField", true)

Hi,I needed to extract the current time in Nintex Forms. I am aware of the CurrentTime nintex function, but the problem is that the currentTime is never updated and if the form is kept open for a few minutes the time is not updated. I believe Nintex loads the variables when the form is first loaded. I need to get the exact time (don't want to use the client time and would need to rely more on the server time).Any guesses how I can achieve this.? I have tried a number of ways like calling a processupdate() function to refresh my calculated field to give the current time, but the time never refreshes and it always stays the same (i.e. the time when the form first loaded)has anyone else faced this and how did they overcome? Any suggestions welcome.Regards,ShriniMarian Hatala‌ Caroline Jung‌

I have a form with a Choice control. It has a number of choices, and I need some of them to be either hidden or disabled based on some condition. In my case the condition is something like   fn-IsMemberOfGroup("administratorgroup") How can I achieve this? RegardsLeif

workflow runs normally sometimes but then get stuck on pause for 3 minutes at other times .. The snapshot shows the wk that has been stuck for over 21 hours on a 3 min pause.. how do i troubleshoot this

I have a scenario where we'd like to get approval from several different groups (any one member from group A, all members in group B, any one from group C, etc.) and importantly, we'd like to start these approvals in parallel since doing so serially will take longer. I know that when all required to approve, if a member of a group rejects the task, the other members' (of that group) tasks are canceled. But that won't alert the other parallel approvers or cancel their tasks. Is there a way to do that?  The best I've been able to cobble together regarding this is to keep track of the task ID's upon assignment, then upon any rejection, iterate through that collection and cancel them. Does this sound plausible?

Hi Nintex Community,I'm needing to validate a choice field against another choice field.I have one field of Position levels (1-5) and another field of pay levels(1-3).There are two items of validation I need.   If they are selecting position level 1, they can only select select pay level 1,   If they are selecting position level 5 they cannot select pay level 3.I know this is really simple and i apologise for the dumb question, I just can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.Thanks,Rob

Hi,Is there a way to call Web Request - Post method on drop down change event in Nintex Forms ?This is my scenario, I have two drop downs on my form,  Drop-down A : User makes a selection  Drop-down B : need to be populated based of selection in Drop-down A  Note : Drop-down B is in repeating section In the back-end once user makes a selection, I need to query a tool to retrieve data, below is my POST configuration :Web Service URL : https://domain.com/axis/services/SoapEnv:Request :                      SoapEnv:Response :                        I have configured the same in 'Web Request Control - POST method', and it's working fine. My issue is,               1) How to extract the single record / multiple records from the response shown above ?               2) How to populate Drop-down B,  with all the values under //DATA/Row id="1"/<D n="7797">, on drop-down A change event.    Can someone please assist ?  Caroline Jung‌, I have gone through few of your threads, is this somethi

I am curious to learn if my current 23 seconds from double-clicking (configuring) a Flexi Task until the moment the task is entirely available on the screen for editing is fast, normal or slow for our Nintex development environment. I've eliminated any latency time by developing from a terminal server with < 1ms latency to the SharePoint/Nintex servers. Would appreciate replies telling me how many seconds it takes you to edit a 'decent' flexi task. I've loaded my flexi task with a SharePoint group as the assignee, a notification and reminder email and just some other normal parameters. As I have no other environments for benchmarking against, I have no valid arguments for our excellent IT dept to step into this.Appreciate any responses! Also would like to learn if there are other tools for benchmarking the Nintex development environment.

Can anyone tell me how I should correctly specify the g and i flags?The actual recommendation value is a sentence and if any one those words in the Regex expression are found, then the other actions progresses...

Hello all,I am new to Nintex and having a tough time working through my first workflow.  I am trying to create a simple review and Approval workflow for a document library.1) Document gets put into review2) A reviewer and checker either Approve or Reject the document3) If both Approve: document gets published as next major version.Does anyone have any insight into this or have any examples?I am finding it difficult to find examples of workflows specific to document library workflows.Thanks very much!-Reid

Hello,I am working in a SharePoint 2013 online environment.  I am trying to create a document approval workflow in a document library.We do not have Nintex forms just Nintex workflow.  My question is:  Do I need to purchase Nintex forms as well to properly utilize actions like "Assign a Task"?  Or can I configure it some other way (just from the task list or utilizing some other method)?Thank you,-Reid

I am working on a system that works with time sensitive processes. Sometimes a process times out and goes into error state. this can be fixed by a simple retry of the process. but as the processes work 24 hours a day and errors can occur 24 hours a day. with processes outside of support hours manual retry cannot always be done.I wanted to know in the Exception Rule of the process is there a way to Retry the Event/Activity after an allotted amount of time.

Hi all,For a project I need to query a list and one of its filters needs to be on a Hyperlink column. No matter what I try, I can't get it working; except for the too loose filter if the Hyperlink Contains a partial text. What am I missing?Thanks in advance.KRJean-Pierre

Hi, I've customised the Task Form of 'Assign Flexi Task' with Nintex Forms and added few custom fields. These custom fields are connected to SharePoint list so that when I submit, these fields are inserted into the list. I've two buttons in the form. Button#1  has to just save the form data into the list. Button#2 will submit the data as well as 'Approve' the task (with out selecting Approve/Reject task outcomes or Decision Radio Buttons. Infact I've removed the Radio Buttons & handling the 'Approve' task with Button#2).I'm able to do the Button#2 functionality. I got stuck with Button#1 where it just has to insert the data. I could do this with REST API which I want to avoid. With Save & Submit button for Button#1, if I submit the Task Form, the data is getting inserted into the list but the workflow is throwing an error. I guess the Task Form when submitted is expecting an input which should be either Approve/Reject or any other Task Outcome.Is there a possibility where I can

 Symptoms Currently, we have a case that have missing data in datafield. This K2 instance is now under Error state due to the missing data. Is there anyways for us to populate the data in the datafield? Diagnoses N/A Resolution There are 2 ways:1. Use the K2 API and write a program to edit the data fields. (Sample Code: https://www.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2blackpearl/devref/4.6.7/webframe.html#Get_Data_Fields.html)2. Use a 3rd party tool on the K2 Community Market: http://community.k2.com/t5/General-K2-Utilities/Process-Instance-Data-Fields-Editor/ba-p/82810As always, make a backup of the K2 DB before attempting to make any changes in case of the need to rollback. And since this is a Production environment, please do what is necessary to avoid disruptions to any ongoing operations before the above is done. (i.e Scheduled Downtime, After Hours, etc.) 

Where's the Forum for Nintex questions for SharePoint? Not Office 365.

I have ListA and ListB.ListA has several columns connected to fields in a Nintex Form.ListB has a list lookup control that allows you to choose an item from ListA. This then populates several calculated value controls, pulling the info from that list item on ListA. I would like to display a hyperlink to the open the item (display form) from ListA.First I tried:I created a column in ListA named URL that is a calculated column with the following formula:  ="https:\webserversiteListsListNameDispForm.aspx?id="&IDThen in the form for ListB, I added a calculated value control to pull in the URL field of the item in ListA. Unfortunately it only displays it the URL as text. Not clickable.So then I tried:I added a Form variable in the form for ListB that pulls the item ID for the item that is chosen from the drop-down.I then added a Rich Text control, added some text and inserted a hyperlink. I put this for the address: https:\webserversiteListsListNameDispForm.aspx?id="variable1" (where va

I need to append xml into a multi line field that already will contain xml for a nested repeating section of a Nintex form.So far had to regex out the xml declaration and regex the xml tags to be encoded, which is a lot of steps.Must be an easier way so what have I missed?

Hi All,I have created a repeating section which contains a lookup field that looks up a supporting list. The repeating section also contains a few calculated fields that use the Lookup() runtime function in order to pull back the appropriate data.When I have just one row, the information pulled back is fine. This indicates I have the formulas correct.When I add a second row, the the calculated columns in all rows go blank.Anyone seen this before? I have replicated a similar form (example above) in our DEV environment and it does the same thing, so am thinking it is something bigger than poor form development. What am I missing? We require this information to be displayed in the form itself, as we are driving users to work from the completed forms as opposed to outputting the information in an email or a list view.Using SP2013 and Nintex Forms 2013 2.7.0.0I have looked at the bug fixes for a few of the more recent versions but nothing is apparent. Suspect it may be this though?We are al

Hi guys, I am planning to combine my list workflows, I want a specific thing to happen when the item's field is modified But since I'm combining 2 separate workflows into one. I want to use the Run if function to carry out this out instead of using the workflow settings, but I can't seem to find an option like the one above on the Run If function Config,  can anyone help with this thank you.

Hi,     This broker allows you to export any SmartObject?s list method in CSV Format.     The broker must be configured to accept a maximum number of input properties and parameters so it can adapt to all SmartObject structures.     It returns the results as a string and a file.     You can find in the solution :  - The documentation file  - The source code with the final DLL.
