Hello Everyone! I’m using Sharepoint 2013 and Nintex forms on premise and am having an issue displaying data in 2 existing list columns in Nintex form: AttorneyName (list lookup control) and AttyEmployeeID (calculated value with a lookup function based on AttorneyName) The new list entries that were added via nintex form can be reaccessed and are showingon the form ok (AttorneyName, AttyEmployeeID) and i can open the form, see AttorneyName and AttyEmployeeID and make changes. The problem arises for values that were already in sharepoint list prior (that i’ve imported via BDLC from SQL). These values are not showing in Nintex form. I have both fields connected to their respective list columns. The lookup and calculated fields are pulling from another source list on same site that just has Attorney names and their Employee IDs.Do i need to use a variable? Any help would be much appreciated!

HI,The requirement is to set  value / filter a managed metadata field dynamically using JavaScript in O365 Nintex forms.There were multiple ways through which I tried to set value on the metadata field, likeNWF$("#"+MMDColumn).val({value from another MMD field}) and triggering the NWF$("#"+MMDColumn).change() function.Also, Inserting a HTML' <div class="selected-item"> <span class="item" data-id="' + selectedValues.id + '"> selectedValues.name </span></div>' in to the text area, which does not reflect after submitting the form.Looking for any hidden fields on the page which needs to be updated for the save to be reflected.But none of above helped. Attached screen shot of the requirement..

Hello Nintex Community,Apologize for the question, but my Nintex demand workflows are not starting when a new project is published (this is my first try).  The only action I have in the workflow is to set a project stage.  I have requested the logs from my administrator to look into but I think have spotted an issue.    I attached a screen shot from SharePoint Designer showing that my Nintex Workfows are publishing with the platform type of SharePoint 2010 Workflow.  This does not seem right but I don't get a prompt when I publish a new Nintex demand workflow like I do in SharePoint Designer.  The "IT Project Workflow" is my demand workflow and I think should at least be attributed to Project Server like the designer workflows are.  I have scoured Nintex help articles but do not see anything mentioning a platform type.  I am not the farm administrator and did not do the initial install.  Is there anything I can ask him to check on the Central Admin side that this needs to be changed?Th

Hi, I'm creating a Workflow for my discussion board, I only want the workflow to start for new items, not when individuals reply.I've tested it and the workflow works if I set "Start when items are created" to "Yes" - but it then starts a new workflow for every reply the discussion receives too. I've tried doing a Conditional Start trying to filter only on fields that appear when creating a new discussion (e.g. category or Item ID) but the workflow then doesn't start at all. Any advice on how to get the workflow to start ONLY when a new discussion is added?Thanks in advance :-)

Hi,I'm evaluating Nintex Forms for SharePoint and wondering if the following is supported in Nintex Forms:The form controls / sharepoint columns should be hidden or visible according to AD user group? Like first user1 adds a new item and only some columns are visible. Then, after submitting, user2 opens the item for editing and sees a larger set of columns in form. Kind of workflow without workflow.If not supported in Forms, would it be possible with Nintex Workflow?All the best,Kari 

Hi Everyone,How to remove the black background in the image button because when we are in the on-prem version this image has no black background and it is a PNG file. But when I create a image button on O365 it has black background even if the image doesn't have.

I have a number of workflows on a document library, one of which converts .docx documents into .pdf files. When this happens one of my other workflows which runs when new items are created runs on this .pdf file and returns the following error:Can anyone advise on why this keeps happening? Users are getting spammed with error emails because of this.

In my form there are two single line text fields [Field A] and [Field B]. If both fields remain untouched, the user can submit the form. Does the user fill out [Field A], [Field B] should turn mandatory and vice versa. How can I perform this reciprocal validation?Thank you for your help.

 I am K2 Blackpearl developer. Apart from company K2 development environment I would like to set up my personal K2 development environment for learning purpose.   Please suggest how I can set up this development environment. I need only K2 Blackpearl workflow with .Net client programs, no need to setup SharePoint integration. 

We need to create a Box.com shareable link from a SP2010 Nintex approval workflow. Box.com has the API, wondering if there is a Nintex workflow action for integration with Box.com. If not, available for SP2010, is there an integration for Box.com on other platforms e.g. Nintex for SP2016 or Nintex for Office365? I'm aware of the new Box.com/Nintex platform but we need to call the Box.com API from on-prem SharePoint. We do not need to start a workflow when something is done in Box.  Thanks in advance,

Our organization uses a SharePoint 2010 calendar for booking conference rooms with VTC capability.When a VTC event is created in the calendar, I need to create an event for the prior half-hour to allow for setting up the VTC.  So, for a VTC starting at 0900, an VTC Setup event needs to be created from 0830-0859.So far, this works fine unless the VTC is recurring (which, of course, most of them are).  The VTC setup event is created, but it is not recurring. My method is to query the VTC event using Query List Item to get the data such as title, location, recurrence data, start/end times, etc.  Then I calculate the Setup event start and end times, and use a Call Web Service to create the new Setup event. When I view All Events in the calendar, I see the new Setup event with the Recurrence symbol.  When I open the event in display, Recurrence shows a '1'.  When I edit the Setup event, recurrence expands and shows the pattern that I selected for the VTC. However, there is no start date in

In Nintex workflow environment inside SP2013, when delegate a workflow task using Flexi Assign to another user, the first user will lose the ability to approve that task after he/she become available again.So I'm trying to create a custom action to simply add more users to the current workflow task then any of (first user or new users) can approve this task.I'm using VS2015 with Nintex workflow SDK and SP2013 . Any help will be appreciated.Thanks

Can I use the workflow to query the unique permissions on a list item?My workflow breaks the inheritance on a list item and resets the item permissions for the Owner's group (full control) and the Created By (contribute). Then as it loops through the approval list, it gives contribute access to each approver (added to a variable via collection operation). At the end, it gives read access to the Created By and the approvers.The problem is that if the Owner's grant one-off permissions to an item, I need to be able to keep that person on the item and give them read access. Because they were manually added outside the workflow, they are not in the permission variable. When I reset the permissions at the end, the one-off is removed.Is there a way the workflow can query the permissions on an item based on permission level (contribute)? I'd like to get those results, save them in a variable, and set permission based on that variable.If that is not an option, what is a good alternative? Can I

I cannot seem to conditionally hide a button on a form (or on the ribbon) based on the value of a SharePoint list property?  I tried "expression" in the drop downs in button configuration but they seem to have no affect. (If I specify "No" in the same drop downs, it does work, so I think I'm changing the right configuration option).  I can hide the button using a form rule (using the same syntax as I tried in "expression"), but the form rule does not seem to control the ribbon (button function is still visible and active on the ribbon).

Ok, I'm trying to create a rule that will hide a particular control until another control equals a specific value.  I've created the rule and assigned it to the control that I want to hide.  I have attempted to create the condition (this is where I'm sure my issue lies) and selected the box "hide".   However when I attempt to test the form, the entire form is hidden and not just control I'm looking to hide.  See picsThe rule is set for the control "PC_Model" which happens to be the item selected.  Here is my formula.  I'm trying to hid the control until the drop down control "Equipment_Type" equals "Personal Computer".  When I run this the entire form is hidden.If I take out the rule or the remove the condition, the form comes back.  If I just uncheck the box "Hide", the form looks like the pic above.  First glance, I obviously have a formatting issue.  Just trying to figure out the correct syntax here.  

Again, same person who is trying to convert InfoPath forms to Nintex forms.  On my current InfoPath form, I have several drop downs that pull data from an existing sharepoint list.  In InfoPath, I can select the option "Get choices from an external data source".  From there I can then select the sharepoint list and assigned properties to look for.  This is all from the drop down list properties.  I don't see anything of that nature in the Insert reference.  It is possible, I just have to manually enter the list name and set the rules based on which data it needs to look for.  If someone could point me in the correct direction, I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Hi, I'm new to Nintex Workflows and would like some help with the please.I have a workflow that requests data from a group, the data requested is the name of the individual who the work needs to be assigned to (using Select Person/Group).Once this information has been provided I need the workflow to automatically notify the individual that the work has been assigned to them what is the best way to do this? I have looked at Assigning Flexi task, Send Notification etc. but they require you to select a specific individual from the Person/Group to send the email to and until the previous “requests data” part of the workflow has been completed I won’t know who this is.Thanks, Steph (Using Nintex Workflow 2013, on SharePoint 2013)

So I'm converting my InfoPath forms into Nintex forms.  We have a few forms were we would have to copy basically the same section over and over (same rules too).  Essentially we wanted some of the fields inside the sections to be searchable within Sharepoint.  Repeating sections inside InfoPath would have been easier, but you cannot promote data inside those sections to fields in Sharepoint.  Is that the same for Nintex forms?

Hello,Need some help with the format of a single line of text field using Nintex form. I need the control to be invalid if the set format is not followed. It should be in the following format (########-##-##-####). I was able to accomplish this in the column validation settings using the following formula: where "text" is the single line of text column:=AND(LEN(text)=22,(MID(text,9,1)="-"),(MID(text,12,1)="-"),(MID(text,15,1)="-"),(MID(text,18,1)="-"))However this is not allowing me to set the error message as I want when filling the form. It is throwing a generic error of something went wrong, please try again.Any help or information is much appreciated. Regards,Ronnie.

Hi,I have built a very basic workflow to copy Infopath forms from one Sharepoint (2010 on prem)  form library to another on the same site if it doesn't already exist.   These are old forms that I am archiving off (2015) so are no longer being accessed.It will copy randomly between 5 to 13 forms and then I get "an error has occurred in *worklflow name** with no other error message.  I have tried everything, pauses, commit changes etc.  Its not the documents themselves because if i restart the workflow it will then copy it and a further 5/6 forms before erroring again.I have spent about 2 days on it and still not working   any ideas?  I have created the workflow from scratch in case it was some sort of corruption.Thanks
