Hi, is there any possibility to integrate K2 workflows on a list in a SharePoint app? We have deployt the K2 App in the SharePoint Site that hosts our SharePoint App, but it seems like the K2 app activates the K2 components only in subsites and not in SharePoint apps. Thanks in advance

Dear all,I have a document library where I stored documents into different folders of projects. I want to find documents based on attribute's value I input in order to do reporting or analytics . Could you share your idea?Thanks so much

On my default list the Owner group has edit access to the items. In that list.  Everyone else has read access.The "Owner" runs a workflow which grants the user edit access to an individual (let's call him participant)  on the form using a Set Item Permissions in a workflow.   That all works great.After an "expiration" period a workflow runs to remove the edit access to the participant.   I added a Set Item Permissions to Yes.    I assumed it would revert the item to the default list permissions.  To the contrary.  What it did was to keep the participant's edit access and removed all access for all other users.What I had to do was to explicitly set the access as I wanted.   Set Item Permissions, Inherit permissions from parent = yes does not revert to the default list setting?   If not what the heck is its purpose?  Is there any way to revert to default list settings without  explicitly  setting them with Set Item Permissions?

is there any review guidelines, which can use for following 1)  we have followed the k2 best practices while developing the workflows or smartforms2) Review guidelines used for reviw process3) Can make forms and workflows faster ThanksVD 

I have a situation where in one case I want one of my FlexiTask outcomes to say "Submit for Review".  but sometimes I want the same Outcome to read Approve.   Was anyone figured a way to have variable outcomes on a FlexiTask without having  multiple FlexiTasks?

I have an approval workflow on a document library which updates certain meta data fields in the library if the task is approved.  When I look at version history for a document, the modified by is actually the person who uploaded the file not the person who approved the task.  I understand the workflow is running under the Created by account but for audit purposes this does not look good.  I've tried a few things but can't seem to get this to record as I would like.We are on prem using Nintex Workflow 2013 v 3.0.7.0Any ideas? Attached: Version History.jpg (screenshot)Series24Approval06052017.nwf (workflow file)

I am having the same issue as reported in the thread here,  Same screenshot as was posted in that thread.This is a newly built SP2016 farm using a Nintex Development license. Using IE 11, I created a new subsite, created a custom list, activated the Nintex Forms features at the Web App level (in central admin) and at the site collection level. I clicked the Nintex Form button on the new list and attempted to publish but got this error. However, the form was actually published despite the error. So it is more an annoyance than a real issue, but do you have any ideas how to stop the error from happening? Users don't like hearing "I know it looks like an error, but really it's fine, don't worry about it" if you know what I mean...

Hi,I've Item Url with me. How to filter this URL and get folder URL using inline functions.Item URL: "http://path/to/a/filename.txt"Result: "http://path/to/a"Thanks,Pandiarajan

We have a document review workflow that has a set list of approvers.  In demo'ing the system today, a request was made to allow an Ad-hoc workflow stop.  Here was the described scenario:A review workflow approver gets a review/approval task assigned to them.  But before they are willing to approve the document, they want to be able to route someone else to get feedback on it.  The actual person it would be assigned to varies based on the contents of the document being reviewed and therefore cannot be accommodated in advance.  So what they want is the ability to (optionally) click an "Add Ad-Hoc Reviewer" button that would let them then select a user who have a review task assigned to them that will return it back to the Ad-Hoc Review Requestor before they determine whether to Approve or not and have the workflow move along as pre-built.Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Why are so many Control Settings set as Rich Text? I can understand it for the Default Value of a textbox. But why are so many others the same? The Client ID JavaScript variable name, for example. It just makes it that much more difficult when I have to type each and every single variable, when I've already got them typed up in the code I'm using. Every time I have to hand-type something I've already typed correctly is one more instance of a higher chance of incorrect information. It just seems like a poor choice, but maybe there's a reason for it and I just don't know. Can someone enlighten me?

HiI have a form with URL link (form label) to open another form. The purpose is for the requestor to jump to another form and create a new master data, if they cannot find it in the current form.I have used Redirect URL for “Save and Submit” button and use some custom Javascript for “Cancel” button to redirect to previous forms  function doRedirect(){history.go(-1);}But the previous input value was deleted every time when users go back to the previous form.Is there any better way to handle this request?Thanks,Emily

We ahve two forms, on the bottom of one form it is showing the Created Date, Created By, Modified Date and Modified By as well as the Item Type (see Image Nintex_WithCreated.png). But on another form it does not show this at all (see Image Nintex_WithoutCreated.png). Can someone please advise where this is done or how I get it back.TIACheers

I need to send notification to a SP group, that contains individual user (A) and AD group (B, C). I found B and C in the AD group did not receive the notices.After simplifying my workflow for a testing purpose, I found that AD group inside SP group won't be accepted as recipient. If user B is added directly under SP group, then he received a notice.Is this Nintex limitation?Kind regards,-Naoko

HelloIs it possible to make a text field show default values via LookUp from a sharepoint list?The process has 2 stages:1) once when the user makes the request2) the approver makes changes to the formThe Currency DropDown option is a choice and has pre-defined currenciesThe list below (PlanRates) is the sharepoint custom list:UPDATE:I have also added a Calculated Field and connected to the Rate field.Now at least I have the lookup() function within the calculated field.It is just a matter of figuring out how to nest the lookup() to the custom list called PlanRatesHow do I nest the look(up) to the PlanRates so thatit checks which currency is chosen via the dropdown list and then shows the relevant Value ?I have a feeling that the currency dropdown also needs to lookup to the custom list PlanRates.Please suggest and advise .... thanks

Good Day All,We are in the process in moving our Policies and procedures to SharePoint, We will be using Nintex workflows for the approval process. However there is a requirement for our documents to have an Actual signature on these documents.I have been looking at a product called DocuSign, but I am not sure if it can tie in with Nintex 2016 (on prem).Do you guys know of any other products or does Nintex workflow 2016 have a digital signature functionality that I am not aware of?PS - Currently in progress migrating from SP 2013 - SP 2016.Have not played with Nintex 2016 as I had hoped.Thanks in advance.

When I start the Workflow with a PowerShell script, then I got 2 tasks with the same name to complete.The first one says no task ID found , the second one works. But the desired behaviour is only one task should appear.When the workflow is started manually then there is only one task. The task is a simple confirmation.Here is the  PowerShell code to call the Workflow:$web = Get-SPWeb $mySiteUrl $list = $web.Lists[$sDocLibraryName] $wfm = $web.Site.WorkFlowManager $association = $list.WorkFlowAssociations |Where { $_.Name -eq $WFName} $data = $association.AssociationData $wc=new-object system.net.webclient $wc.Credentials = Import-Clixml $credentialsPath$item = $list.GetItemById($listItemID);$wf = $wfm.Startworkflow($item,$association, $data,$true)Write-Host "Workflow started, please wait 10 seconds" -ForegroundColor Green;Start-Sleep -Seconds 10$web.Dispose();

Hi,I am trying to add Multi Line field with Enhanced rich text inside Repeating Section. It does not seem to give me options to apply rich text formatting in ribbon. It is acting like plain text. Is there any way to have rich text inside repeating sections in Nintex forms?

Hello,we are planning to do a farm upgrade from 2013 to 2016, i read the Installation Guide from Nintex and its mentioned that the minimum requirements for Nintex 2016 are the same as SharePoint 2016.SharePoint 2016 needs MSSQL Server 2014 SP1 or newer and Windows Server 2012 R2 or newer.BUT in Nintex 2016 Product Release Notes, the SQL version is 2016.my question is, is Nintex compatible with MSSQL Server 2014 SP1? and is it compatible with Windows Server 2012 R2?Thank youIbrahim

Specifically what are the implications for the existing records that used that old lookup list? Do they still contain their existing data and can the 'current' form with the new lookup list display the existing data?We're running Nintex Forms 2010 Standard.Let me know if you require any additional information.

Is there a way to centrally control the look and feel of all of the outgoing workflow notifications in the farm? I would like to set the font and font size and also change the color of the orange lines added to the email.

I have a list with the following columns:Vendor    Type       Role         Location         Price Year 1         Price Year 2      Price Year 3I need to have a form which I can input a price and it will search years 1,2 and 3 and return any matches with all the rest of the record.So for instance on the form I would have a place to input a rate. If the rate was in a record in year 2 I would pull the other field values into the form.Rate: $100.00Vendor      Type               Role      Location         Year 1      Year 2         Year 3IBM            Onshore         PM      New York                          $100.00Samsung   Offshore         AVP      New Deli                           $100.00I have been trying to do this with a list lookup but feel there may be a better way to do this.
