I have workflow with a start from with a single text control. I tried to get the text data to the workflow using QueryXML and Form data. But the FormData shows main list data. Not the start form data.Any help?
I'm trying to use the following function for a calculated field on a form but no value is being returned:Â Â Â Â userProfileLookup(Current User,"displayName") We're using Claims-based authentication for our SharePoint 2013 on-prem farm. So our user names are in the format of:Â Â Â Â i:0#.w|domainusernameThe userProfileLookup in-line function help text listed the syntax of the function as: Â Â Â userProfileLookup("domainlogin", "InternalPropertyName")So I tried substituting a manual value for the current user value to see if maybe it was because our usernames were in Claims format:Â Â Â Â userProfileLookup("domainusername","displayName") Still no dice.What I'm attempting to do is use the display name of the current user in a form rules formula to hide a field on a form unless the current user is listed in at least one of several people picker fields on the form. But I'm struggling to get the Current User value into a format that will match the values in the people picker fields. Using Nintex Forms

Hi All,We are using a flexi task to assign individual task to a group of users and we also have enabled auto complete in the escalation tab.OutComes: only 1 outcomeBehaviour: First response appliesSo when none of the user complete the task, the workflow auto completes the 1st task and then it errors out.
I have a browser-enabled InfoPath form linked to a SharePoint list and a Nintex Workflow. I have designed the form to submit and start the workflow only when a particular field 'field1' is set to 'Submit', which is triggered by the 'Submit' button. This is so that I can have a separate 'Save' button which simply saves the form to the SharePoint list. The problem I'm having is that this conditional setting in Nintex is causing the form to delay very significantly when being submitted. It takes an average of 45-60 seconds to submit whereas previously it was 2-5 seconds. Sometimes, it simply times out. Does anybody have an explanation for this, or a work-around? Thank you Shaun
Hi, How can I get the fully qualified domain mame on task approval?I’m using nintex forms and workflows 2013.
I want to scroll to the first error after submit.The position is: NWF$(".nf-validator-error:visible").first().offset().topThe problem is that I can't add listener to the submit button. I can't do like this:NWF$("input[type=submit][value=send]").click(function(){})So...1. Is there OOTB solution?2. if not - how may I add event listener to an submit button (responive file)
I created a workflow to archive list items from an original list to an archive list. I'm using the "Copy item" action. Everything works fine, but in the archived list, the "Created" date/time and "Created by" are different than the original list. It obviously uses the time it was copied as the "Created" date/time and for the "Created By" the person who initiates the workflow. I would like the archived list to reflect the same values as in the original list. Would appreciate any help please.
This is the process: new organization worker has a form with general details about him.In this form he can upload - if he want, a pdf with its formal sign for getting a parking.This is just one of the file he can upload - and I would like to restore it for the workflow.How can I restore this specific file (not at the generic "files" of sharePoint - but as unique field)?If there is no OOTB solution, may you tell me how do IÂ upload it to a libary?
Hi,I am working with sharepoint 2016 onpremise with Nintex + Infopath. I am new on Nintex workflow.I have 2 problems and hope someone can help me.I have create an infopath form based on a sharepoint list.  1) I have created a workflow with Nintex and I am using the lazyapproval notification.  In my sharepoint list I have a column called photo which is a picture object. So each Item of my list has a different    photo.  My question is how can I embeded the dynamic photo in the body of the email notification ? For information I don't    want to attach the photo to the mail, I want it in the body of email for preview.2) I have noticed that when Lazzyapproval email has attach docs over 2 Mo size I can't read correctly the notification mail on Iphone and Ipad using a apple Mail app. It seems that email format change from  Rich text option to plain option.Does anyone has the same issue as me ?Many thanks for your helpEtienne
I have a repeating section that records a bunch of fields including a due date field setup up as a date/time field.Date is entered in a DD/MM/YYYY format on the form. (26/05/2018)Date is saved in the xml as 05/26/2018. I've read that this is just a thing Nintex does. When I parse this, I can't save this date into a date/time variable. I think it believes that 05/26/2018 is still in dd/mm/yyyy or it's expecting it to be and it's clearly not causing errors. I'm therefore saving it in a string/single line text variable.I now need to take that information and pop it into another list on the site. I can't take that 05/26/2018 and pop it in as the list is looking for a DD/MM/YYYY date and it is erroring. I tried May 9th and it pops in as September 5 so I know I need to do something. I've tried a couple of date functions, all I've tried work for 05/09/2018 but error for 05/26/2018. I've tried a convert action, same result.After much grumbling, I decided to tear the string to pieces and put ba
I'm trying to develop an approval workflow in SharePoint 2013 that allows the user to create a page, which should be sent to a group for approval. If approval is given, it would then be published. If rejected, it would not be published or visible to anyone. This seems like it should be a fairly simple thing to do, but I noticed that the workflow starts both on check in and on publish.If anyone has some insight on this (or even examples of something similar) I would be very grateful.
Hi,I'm trying to use a person or group field that allows multiple values with a workflow to set a document's permissions based on the names in the person or group field. How do I get a set item permissions action to recognise the names in the field?Thanks,Rob
 Symptoms Unable to send email to a particular SharePoint group with error:"The email address, Null or Empty, does not meet the requirements." Diagnoses Sending email to other SharePoint groups work fine. It turns out, the SP group contains a total of 15 members whereas the SmartObject (Users and Groups.Get E-mail For Group Users.E-mail) used to populate the To address on the Email Event only returns 14. Resolution After removing the member from the group whose email did not appear, this has been resolvedÂ
I am trying to set the value of a choice control, rendered as option (radio) buttons using JavaScript...the JavaScript is called by clicking a button (client click).Example function is below. This function works properly once, and once only per form load. After initially successfully setting the option button, any subsequent click of the button does not set it back to "Stage 2 - Proposal and Corrective Actions". However the 2 alerts on either side of that line do pop up.So the function is successfully called each time the button is clicked, the actual value setting only works on the first click. Why?function Stage2() { alert("Starting Stage 2 function");NWF$('#' + varStage).find('input:radio[value="Stage 2 - Proposal and Corrective Actions"]').attr("checked","true").change();alert("Ending Stage 2 function");return false;}Breaking down the function:varStage - is the JavaScript variable for the choice control.change() is used as otherwise rules based on this value being set do not fireI
Hi,following situation: A workflow shall create about 700 list items within a loop. These items are created within the workflow and the workflow performs the last two actions after the loop as well (referring to the detail workflow history). But I get an error email that the workflow has stopped with errors!If I downsize the list to 50 elements it is working fine, 200 as well. I didn't check how far I could go, but I'm quite curious what is causing this? It should not be that hard for a database to handle this amount of data.Any ideas?The data itself is fine, we have a dataset of 49 elements which is "manually" (join all in database select statemenet) increased to the desired amount.edit1: 400 elements are working as well fine. will increase the value and check where it gets stuck.edit2: 600 elements is causing an error, although all elements are created and the last step of the workflow (set status in list a, elements are created in list b) is executed successfully as well.edit3: 550
Is there any way to hide a control if a control inside a repeater is selected? , I can hide it if a =="Nurse" but if I add another row and select "diet" in that control, value of the control (displayed in a calculated value) now looks like "Nurse;Diet" and any additional rows just add to that. I want to hide a control if Nurse is selected in any of those but I'm not really seeing a way to do so. Any ideas?
I'm in a unique situation - I am a site owner on two separate Sharepoint instances - one is Sharepoint on prem, the other is Online. I am using Nintex 2013 on prem and Nintex for Office 365 for SPO.In my on prem instance (Nintex 2013), I have a few workflows that query a list for names, dumps them in a collection variable, and sends them an email. No sweat.The collection variable looks like this:i:0#.w|farmshortname1;i:0#.w|farmshortname2And emails are sent to this variable value just fine.In Nintex for Office 365, for some reason, this doesn't work.Here's what I have. List #1 with a "Subscribers" column (People&Groups), containing names.List #2 with a list workflow that contains a "Query List" action. The Query List action is querying List #1 for the "Subscribers" column and collecting the values in a collection variable. Under "Columns to Select" I've chosen "Subscribers" and under "With Property" I've chosen "Work email".The resulting collection variable in Nintex for SPO
Hi NintexI have to listList A: Contains 2600 elements (has a workflow (A) that sets a new data if certain criteria is met) List B: One element from where I start my loop through List A with my workflow (B)My workflow (B) loops through List A and calls the workflow A. This goes fine for about 750 more or less. After this it stops without any errors.Any idea on what can cause this :-)Regards Rico
I should probably submit this as a product improvement request of some kind, but I'm not sure how to do that (sorry).In a Send Email Notification action we have this checkbox to "Send individually addressed notifications".In this example I'm sending an email to the "Created By" user, and the "Customer" (a single-user User type field in the list). If the box is checked and the "Customer" is the same person who created the list item, then the person gets two emails.I'm thinking the product should check for and remove duplicate email addresses so that only one email is sent to any email address.
Hi Guys, I need your help. When you have a query that runs against a SQL Table and returns data into 3 columns, how do you put these results a collection that you can use. Is there a way to do this?For Example: My sql table returns the following resultsTrading IDPortfolio8868BMBTH9898CBGFk9899GTGFU I think my effort has been able to get the first column value but not the 2nd or 3rd column.What am I missing? Regards Bhuti
I have two SharePoint lists, one called 'Suppliers' which stores all supplier details and has open access and another called 'Supplier Reviews' which has restricted access and contains review details. On the nintex form for 'Suppliers' I have added a button called 'Create a review of this supplier' which opens a new nintex form on the 'Supplier Review' library.What I would like to do is for the supplier name to be auto populated on the new form when the button has been clicked.Is there any way to do this?Thanks
Hello!I want to check (in a loop) if a number field is empty or not. Can I achieve this with greater than/less then etc.?I want to go into the loop in case the field is empty.I tried (as a workaround) to save my number fields as text variables in my workflow and check if they are empty ('is empty' and 'is not empty' are not available in the number settings).The problem is that the workflow does not enter the loop so it does not notice that the text variables are empty.Any ideas?
Hi I would like to restrict the field with numbers and dots(.) using RegEx expressions.Please guide me. For example, this is actually an IP Address10.111.123.2310.111.151.150
