Attempting to use user profile lookup inline function in Nintex forms, to lookup a user's email, from their user account, so that I can use it to lookup a value in another list, where the only common field is the user's email.  This works fine for some user accounts, but fails to resolve other user accounts.  We have compared accounts that resolve, to accounts that don't resolve, and can't find any difference in their setup.  Any ideas what could be the issue?

I have a calculated value control. For its formula, I want to evaluate a couple values on the form. For the the logical_test argument (first part of If statement), I have tried the following, and  I can't quite get the syntax. Ideas?(I am looking for payment option of "Description A" and a payment amount between 5 and 10. String1 and String2 are the options for the calculated value to display.)If(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false)If(PaymentOption == "Description A" && PaymentAmt > 4.99 && PaymentAmt < 10,"String1","String2")If((PaymentOption == "Description A" && PaymentAmt > 4.99 && PaymentAmt < 10),"String1","String2")If((PaymentOption == "Description A") && (PaymentAmt > 4.99) && (PaymentAmt < 10),"String1","String2")I can get it to work with any combo of two items in the logical_test argument. It's the third one that is throwing things off. 

I am trying to collect comments from people from an internal web page. I'd like to have a hyperlink on that page that then opens a Nintex form for people to enter their commentary and save the data to a SharePoint list. I can then use this data for other reporting.Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

 Question How do I add a rule to hide a table in a Form? Answer To hide a table in a Form the following steps can be taken: 1. Drag a table onto the Form.   2. Depending on how you want to hide the table you can create different rule sets to do so. For this example the table will be hidden when a button is clicked.      3. In the Rules Wizard Configuration screen in Actions you will find a rule called Hide a Form control, you will add this rule then select the table control on the select control link:      After configuring this wizard you may click the Finish button found on the wizard screen. Save the Form and after doing this you should see that when you use the configured button or other applicable action that the table will hide itself accordingly. 

HiI have created a submission form which is used by the business for gaining approval on new purchases or services etc. The form needs to be flexible and allow the requestor to add multiple approvers/reviewers. Therefore I would like to include the approvers in a repeating section like this:However, in the approval workflow, it throws an error "Error in request approval action. The user to assign the task to has resolved as blank text.". I'm thinking this is to do with how the repeating section passes the data as XML.Is there a work around to what I'm trying to achieve, other than manually adding multiple "Submitted to" fields on the form?Thanks in advance!

hey i have publish nintex forms with nintex live, but i have trouble with workflow " failed to start workflow".how to solve this trouble. Best Regards.Zak

I am trying to create a workflow to move an uploaded document from a "drop off" library to a particular document set. The workflow needs to do the following:1) Sets the variable varTitle as the title of the uploaded document.2) Creates a document set in another library with the title variable as the Doc Set title.3) Sets variable varFullUrl to a dynamic url of the new document set. 4) Copies the uploaded item to the new document set using the Copy to SharePoint action.5) Deletes the item from the drop off library.Step 4 is where it fails. I get the error. Failed to copy item. Cannot find list at URL [variable from step 3 above]So it seems it's trying to submit to a list and the URL is to a document set, not the list. Is this not possible? If not, is there a way to achieve this? 

I have two domains and users are getting resolved in SharePoint people picker column without any issue. Whereas, Nintex form having the people picker column is not resolving 1 domain user. It is giving "No result" for one domain.Appreciate any help in this context. Environment Details: SharePoint 2013

 When populating a Sharepoint group or person column an Error: "The user or group [NAME] could not be found in SharePointcan" can be raised. Please view the related KB article here. 

SharePoint 2013 on-premises.We have a strange behaviour on 2 separate environments (read: different server, sql database).When the Flexi-Task action is processed user gets the approval request email and if he /she clicks the Workflow Task link from the email, SharePoint shows the "item not found or has been deleted " message.Now wait 10 seconds, click the link again: page item opens ok.This seems to be that the workflow item is not yet created, despite the workflow action having sent the email notification.Is there any way to accelerating the task creation, but more realistically how to not send the approval email before the workflow task is finished creating ?I have tested on a VM environment and it works as expected, so I am puzzled by what is happening in the environment above, and more strange that this is happening on 2 distinct farms, but not my own VM.many thanks.François.

I completed the "Try Nintex for 30 Days - Free" form and I haven't received any sort of download screen or email message, does it take a while to process the request?

 Normally when we create a K2 app in SP, and replace the out of the box SharePoint list forms with the K2 ones, it shows the list item Title field in the page. However, in this case it is displaying the list item ID.   Please view the related KB article here. 

I am tasked with a workflow on SharePoint Online that includes uploading an image to a different Site Collection and changing the Site Collection's logo.Is there a way to do using a Call HTTP Web Service action since i don't see a Nintex Workflow action to accomplish the task?

I'm following this blog to create an incremental field in a list called  'Infrastructure Specification v2 VIEWS'. I've set up a supporting list called master_request. The Workflow is erroring on the 'Update item' action and the detail isn't giving me anything to work on. The configuration is below, where am I going wrong? Any help appreciated!   

I am wanting to add a Previous / Next Button to a Nintex Edit Form.    The following code has been added to the Client Click section of the button:   Next Button:  window.location = "Site URL/Lists/IAMGlossaryNavSettings/EditForm.aspx?ID=" +(ID+1)    Previous Button:   window.location = "Site URL/Lists/IAMGlossaryNavSettings/EditForm.aspx?ID=" +(ID-1) .     When clicking the Previous Button or Next Button on the form, the following error will display because a certain ID does not exist:  "No item exists at...  It may have been deleted or renamed by another user"  Does anyone know how to get around the "No Item exits" error?    Will this require additional Javascript?   If so any help with the JavaScript would be appreciated.

Hi,Recently we are having a challenge to make a form which pulls multiple items from one list and makes it possible to edit them at once.e.g. There is a custom list called Tracking, and it has the following columns and content.Title               Owner       Compliant (Yes/No)Project 1       John                Project 2       John       Project 3       JohnProject 4       Ann          Project 5       AnnThe purpose of that form is that when John opens the form, he will see Project 1, Project 2, Project 3, and be able to fill in column Compliant which should be Yes or No. The same concept goes for Ann, she will be able to fill in column compliant for Project 4 and 5.Could anyone of you kindly share your idea on how to build this with Nintex Form? Or by other means is also welcome!Thanks in advance.Lingji

How to update the versions for Nintex.?Does it have different installer or do we need to run the Nintex installer again.Can some please let me know the process.Do we need to run on all the servers in the farm.Currently we have 4.0.0.0 and we are planning to update it to the latest version.

I can't believe I'm having an issue with something like this. It should be very simple and I'm sure I am just missing something.I have two drop down choices. One is a list ranging from 01 to 12, to represent the month. Another is the four digit year. The idea is you select the month, then the year, then in a calculated value I combine them.Example: For today, it should show "03/2018". Except when I use the formula "choiceServiceMonth/ChoiceServiceYear" I get an error which I assume is because it's trying to divide the numbers. When I used a dash instead of slash, it subtracted 03 from 2018 and showed me 2015. What's the trick here that I'm missing?

Hey everyone,This might sound silly. But I can't seem to decode the decisions on a task form? I saw that some of you go to the database and get those codes. But I have for each task form different decisions. I basically want to put a rule on the task form to validate only if the decision is anything else but "reject". I tried to display the task list in a datasheet view with the outcome, hoping that I can see the codes. Same as it is for the Workflow status field. But nope, it didn't show the codes, it showed actual values.Is there anyway I can make rules without using the codes or is there anyway I can find those codes without having to check the database tables?? 

I have a nintex workflow that is used across multiple sites that when a new item is created in a list of one of the subsites it creates a new item in the master list at the root of the site collection.  The problem is, when the item is edited at the subsite it creates a brand new item in the master list but what I need it to do is copy over the original. The workflow goes like this:Run If: Condition - If any value equals value, Value "Update" is not emptyCreate item in another site:Site URL, List Name, Content Type - Item, Value - "Project Name", Value - "Update", List Lookup - "Week Ending".The settings for the workflow are:Start when new item is created and Start when items are modified.This works exactly the way I wanted it too except  when the user at the subsite level edits an item in that list it creates a 2nd line item in the master list instead of copying over the first.Can anyone tell me how I could prevent creating a new item and just copy over the first?

Hello everybody,I have a workflow on a library that I want to start conditionally depending on when a new item is created of a specific content type. However, I don't seem to have the option for a conditional start on new items available! I can select only Yes or No. How can I resolve this?Kind regards,Yvette
