Hello. I had a similar question a couple of months ago. Basically I'm trying to pull a certain node's information based on another node. XML below so you can see what I'm referring to. <?xml version="1.0"?><TICKETS>   <INCIDENT_NUMBER ID="INC12345678910">       <CORPORATE_ID>USEID25</CORPORATE_ID>       <FULLNAME>John Smith</FULLNAME>       <DIVISION>I.T.</DIVISION>  </INCIDENT_NUMBER></TICKETS>Now based on the Corporate ID in the file I want to choose the Incident number so I can place that in a variable.  Using the below xpath I can do the reverse and pull the corporate ID. //INCIDENT_NUMBER[@ID='INC12345678910']/CORPORATE_IDSince Incident_Number is the parent node I can't seem to figure out how to reverse that. Does anyone have any thoughts?Thanks in advance.

So this is probably a dumb question with an obvious answer, but I can't get the remove by value operation working. I have a collection with a number of entries that simply say "None". I want to remove them, but I can't seem to make it work. Help would be appreciated.

Hi,Just in the process of building my first workflow with Nintex.I have a step to create a document set on list item creation, which uses the list item's title to name the document set.I then want to populate a field in the new list item with the URL to the document set that was created.I have done this using a lookup which returns the "Encoded Absolute URL" based on the title of the list item matching the name of the document set. This populates the URL field in the list item correctly, but I am wondering if there is a way to populate the value in the following format which would set and then display the link in the desired format of linked descriptive text rather than the actual URL displaying.When extracting data from a URL field that has this format it is in the "URL, Text" format, so I would like to achieve the following:Encoded Absolute URL, [DocSetName] Document SetIs this possible?Thanks.

I am being migrated from SharePoint Online Dedicated to Microsoft's Government Community Cloud (GCC).  It seems like the Dedicated environment used a Nintex farm solution, but the GCC will be using a SharePoint add-in.  Is that correct?  Are both of Nintex's applications the same in terms of functionality?  I use about 30 different Nintex workflow activities and I would like to find out if they are all in the GCC solution.  If not, I would like to try to understand how much of my workflows need to be re-written. 

Wondering if anyone has run in to this issue before.  We have a Request data action w/ a custom form and "Allow Delegation" is checked yet the link to delegate the task is not displayed on the custom task form like it does on the default Request data task form.  I could probably build the link but would rather not have to.  I don't see any related settings for the Nintex task form nor do I see a control for adding the text w/ the delegate link.Default Request Data Task Form w/ delegate linkCustom form missing delegate tagAny help much appreciated.

Maybe someone has already done this or have ideas?For now, i'm thinking about reading all lines and counting it, and display the number in first row.. but not have ideas what to do about the remaining rows..  

Hi all,I am new to Nintex and I am trying to create a helpdesk ticketing system which should have a way to escalate, reassign, sign by the user when done, and then route to manager for issues , signed by the manager in the end.Do we already have a template which does this with forms and the workflow?Much appreciated.

Hi everyone, I'm currently doing a reminder workflow on a list which will send an email to the people in charge how many days are left.My conditions are Send email for item when the column daysleft is 7,daysleft is 3 to 1daysleft is 0 or less.My days left column is a calculated column, where I take the Due Date - Current Date.I have a site workflow which updates the Current Date column to the current time daily. Thus the Days left column will update daily.This is my list containing all my items.This is my list workflow.Right now I want to add the description and title into the email messages, but whenever I use the item properties, it just repeats the description and title for all the emails even if its not the same item.For example I want the email to be like thisSubject: Title OneThere will be the description of the item in the text box, including how many days left (I did this one already).

I am having issues with successfully configuring the Lazy Approval...I have followed the LazyApproval Guide and ensured the required services are running on the front-end server (Incoming E-Mail, Web Application & SMTP). I also followed the guide to install & configure SMTP service (SMTP Virtual Server & SMTP Service are now running).One part that is confusing me is the 'reply to' Email Alias. If I enter an account that has a mailbox, when I reply to the approval email it simply goes to to that mailbox (the reply with phrase word 'approve'). However if I enter an alias reply address that does not have a mailbox I receive an undeliverable autoreply.Should the email alias set in Lazy Approval settings be a real exchange email account with mailbox?Any tips would be great thanks!Stu

Hello Nintex Community,A site has recently been moved (using DocAve) to its new home. This has caused all items within the document libraries and Site Assets to lose their permissions and revert to Myself and my team. Is there a way that I can create a Nintex workflow that would go through all folders/subfolders and update the permissions to the relevent SharePoint group?the structure of the libraries vary between Folder>SubFolder>SubSubFolder>Document to Folder>Document.Any Assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated.UPDATESo as it turns out I ignored the obvious. what I did was enabled inherited permissions on the library in question, used file explorer to move the file out of the document library then back in and Hey presto, permissions restored as expected.

How can I default a choice control to the drop-down rather than the "Specify your own value?" We definitely want "specify..." to be a last resort not the first option. Also, is there a way to default the value of "Specify your own value" to something other than "na?"

Looking for some advice from the community here on the Set Item Permissions action in the List and Libraries area in Nintex Workflow for SharePoint 2013.I am using two Run If Actions for determining what is the Meeting Type that is being used when the end user creates the Document Set for the review documents. As seen in the second picture this is how I have setup the conditions when configuring the Run If action. I have also set the Run If action to run as the Workflow Owner.My issue is that the workflow runs when a new document set is created as configured, but it does not change the permissions as expected of configured.When configuring the User Permissions in the Set Item Permissions action does it matter what order you have the permissions configured? As an example in the screen shot below I have the permissions for certain groups removed and then I am giving other users or group permissions.Or should I break the Set Item Permissions actions out, where I remove the permissions fir

Dear everyone,I have a  using QueryList action and filter with a field (type is Yes/No). The problem is when I filter with value is Yes => It not work. If I filter with value is 1 => it workedBy the way, if I want to set value to this field => set the value is No or 0. Because I see Nintex only allow to select Yes/No in dropdownlist. If I want to set the value is 0, I have to set value by a variable (variable set value to 0)Please let me know why ?Thanks and regards,//Tan Nguyen

Hi guys I am currently doing expanding my workflow. It sends reminders if a due date is approaching, stating how many days are left. Depending on 3 conditions,Send emails when the column daysleft is 7,daysleft is 3 to 0daysleft is 0 or less.This is my workflow. How it works is it query the list column and then, stores the results in a collection variable, then I use the for each loop to store the results in the collection into a variable. The set condition is to check whether the variable is = 7 days. If yes send the 7 days email. If no, send if variable is 3 to 0, the other is to send if >0 days. It works perfectly, however now I want the email notifications to not be sent  if the column, Issue Status is changed to Closed or Open. It will send if its in Progress. I think that I have to use Query List to obtain the text and store it in a collection variable, then use each loop, but I don't know how to do it.

Is it okay to use Pause For/Pause until action to pause a workflow for extended period of time? For example, any request that is submitted today for with date 06/12/19, we want to pause it until 06/01/19 before the workflow can continue.How long can we pause the Nintex Workflow? Is pausing the workflow for extended period of time going to have performance or any other issues?Any advise and thoughts will be appreciated.

 Symptoms Dears,I can't seem to find Hijri Calendars in K2 Smart Forms, and it is very essential.Please advise. Diagnoses Hijri Date is included in Calendar styles Resolution Resolution:"After you drag the calendar control select its properties then select styles you can see hijri there" 

Within the Nintex form, I have 4 different attachment fields.  I need to validate before the user hits ‘Submit’, that there is at least one attachment loaded into one of those fields (could be any of the 4 attachment fields), when another field has a specific value.  I believe, after doing some research, that custom JavaScript will be needed to build this validation rule.  Basically, I need to make sure there is an attachment (conditional formatting to make a field required), when a specified field has a specific answer.

I have a dropdown with 2 options. If I select option 1 I need to show control 1 (hide control 2), and if I select option 2 I need to show control 2 (hide control 1). I'm trying to use Rules to accomplish this.

Good day! I tried adding a repeating section within a repeating section. What I do here is that the inner repeating section gets information based on what the user selected on a list-lookup. I've done the javascript part. However, two problems arise from this.1) The form's controls go down too much.Example:InitialOnce items are selectedThe space between the outcome and the repeating section is too large.The second problem comes in when adding a new row on the parent/outer repeating sectionThe second row inner repeating section already has the same amount as the previous one. It should go back to one.

Hello, I have been working with Nintex Forms on-premise, SharePoint 2013 for about a month. I am developing a responsive form with about 25 sections on it. When I move items around and make changes then Save or Publish I (intermittently) get the "waiting graphic" which goes into a infinite spin mode. I usually just go back to the site and start over again. This is causing around 30% rework and I am now paranoid and Save after every 2 or 3 changes which takes up too much time. I am using Internet Explorer on a Windows 7 system to view and make the edits to the Nintex Form.Is this typically how this product works? Has anyone come across this issue?Thank you for any help you may be able to provide,Mike
