Hi Folks,I just got Nintex Forms and I need to figure out how to use a Web Request Control to get User Profile information. As a test case, I would like to add the control to my form configured as label or text to show the current user's manager. Can anyone demonstrate how that is done?Thanks and Best Regards,Patrick

Does anyone have a JavaScript example showing me how to reset multiple yes/no controls to the default of 'No' using a button? Ta:)

I have created a form with tabs at the top to separate the form into sections.  I used the Choice Control and created a panel for each section.  I then added rule to each panel.  So far so good, tabs worked as I wanted them to.  I only have an issue when I open an item in SharePoint i.e. view properties, this shows only last tab Treatment & Investigation and I can't tab through to see other pages. Ideally I would like the first tab to show, Employer Details, and then be able to tab through to see other sections. I have no idea why, does anybody know (screenshot below)?Any assistance would be appreciated.Thanks

I got a form where there is a people field that populates the current logged in user. The field/list gives permission to all authenticated users from AD to submit a form; however, we have some shared accounts which the users sometimes "forget" and login with it and submit the form with that shared account. I want to prevent that and we want them always to submit that form with their personal accounts. What I'm trying to do is have a validation rule on that people field (display) to run in runtime which will throw a message if it finds that the logged in user is actually member of a group (which includes all the shared accounts). The message is to tell them that they cannot submit that form with the shared account and they will need to re-login with their personal account. note that I still want the people field in display mode (not enabled) - if possible. Note: Highly preferable to stay away from JavaScript. This is a mobile form as well which will probably fail (not validate and throw

I want to do stuff like "<a href="mailto:email@address.com?subject=[#XXXXXX]">Approve</a>"  in mail body.Is it possible using lazy approval?

I'm beginning to experiment with SQL service instances.  I've figured out how to read/list data from a SQL DB, but I'm wondering if there's a way to write data back to a database.  I experimented with creating a "create" method for the smartobject associated with the table... but no luck.

I would like to use a button to set the value of a single line text box (txtCurrentStatus) and then save the form. I have looked at some other questions on the community site but nothing seems to be working for me. I have set the client ID in the text box properties (idCurrStatus) and verified my function is being called with an alert function before and after my line to set the textbox value but the value never changes.in form settings custom javascript I have:function SetStatus () {     NWF$('#' + idCurrStatus).val("Approved");  }button client click I have:SetStatus()(cause validation is no)single line txtCurrStatus:client ID is yesvalue is idCurrStatusAfter the form refreshes the value hasn't changed and the form hasn't saved. I have read two other post that are similar and neither seem to be working for me.

HelloI am aware that you can create a workflow to pull out the information from an imported spreadsheet or a custom list.However, would that also be possible from a text file ?!my colleague used SAP to export a txt file (to our shared drive) for all First Aid users being on the site.the file looks like this...Now I been asked to show these users on our Intranet page (SharePoint 2013).Is there a method to do it via a workflow somehow .. or would it be just a case of an iframe?!Though only the names and possibly the status is required 

L.S.,Has it already been reported that the default "Context Item Display Name" in a Task notification email is no longer working properly in Nintex Workflow 2013 v3.2.2.10 ? It does have the proper link but the display name is no longer replaced with the Context Item Display Name common property value/Item title. As a workaround one can replace it with a new Link using both Context Item properties though.KR,Jean-Pierre

Hi,I imported the legacy People Picker control V1 by using this information:https://community.nintex.com/community/support/blog/2014/10/15/using-the-legacy-people-picker-control-with-nintex-formsHow can I remove this imported Control?I use SharePoint 2010 and Nintex Forms 2010.

Question for the community: haven't tried this out yet. Can a state machine state recursively call itself?Curious if this works in on-prem NW 2016 enterprise.  You can always switch states then switch back, but that's not as cool (and adds an unnecessary state).

I have two Date/Time controls on my Nintex form, and I'm comparing them with an equals() runtime function.  When the form loads, they are both blank, and the function evaluates to true:So far so good.  But as soon as I change the Date/Time controls, the function always evaluates to false, even if they are the same:(There are some calculated values above the "false" that are just set to show the values of the Date/Time fields.)If I clear the date portions of the Date/Time controls, it evaluates to true again.Here's the formula I'm using:Does anyone have any insight into why this would evaluate as false when the two values are clearly the same?

Hi all,I'm trying to find a way to deselect a checbox if another is selected. I need it to do that in runtime while the user is filling in the form, not as a workflow. The checkboxes are all separate Yes/No fields with nested options (only visually).  they can all be selected but I only want 2-3 validations. Possibly avoid a validation rule that shows an error if both are selected. and not to hide/show if another is select. All options need to be shown upfront before they can make their selection.I know we only got the validation/format rules and I'm not sure how i go about changing a value in runtime. I don't think it is even possible in NF. And I'm not a developer, so I can't tell if it is possible with custom code.any idea?

I have a list lookup which displays the multiple values retrieved as a checkbox list.I also have a yes/no box above called SelectAll.Is there any way to set it so that when SelectAll is ticked, all the values in the checkbox list are ticked?Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I guess the simplest way to ask this is: Is there a way to validate a text input from a list lookup? I am using javascript to autofill a textbox instead of using a dropdown with 1400 entries without cascading being an option.

First, new to Nintex Workflow. I had created a Create Item Workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010 that took data from a form list and created a new item with 15 fields in another list, then archived the form. I now have to create the same workflow with Nintex in SP2013, although I'm confused as to how to accomplish this. Trouble finding documentation or examples to help clarify the parameters. Am I making a mountain out of a mole hill?

I have a form which has different tabs - shows hide based on selection. I am trying to add a select all checkbox button for each tab...so when a user selects that, it checks all the checkboxes for that tab instead of checking all checkboxes on the form. Any help would be great...also can this be done using rules or do I have to use JS?Thanks

When using the delete item action where does the item go?

I've noticed that when multiple multi-select lists are added near each other, some excessive spacing happens. I would love to know how to modify this as it's way too much space to make the form look nice. Please note the screenshots below.Notice the placement of the multi-select list with a checkbox choice component below it.Notice how it comes out looking fine on the actual form.Now, when I add additional multi-select list components look what happens to the form.Not only does it add excessive space between the two multi-selects on the right, it then adds additional space between the multi-select and the checkbox component on the left.Why?

I am using SharePoint 2013 and Nintex Workflows 2013. I have List A and List B. Both of them are in the same site. I want a Total field from List A to be displayed in the List B SharePoint form based on criteria. I also don't want the user to be able to save the form if an Amount field is greater than the Total field that was bought over from List A. I need this to happen on Create and Modify. How can I do this? Please give me code and screenshots if possible.I hope this makes sense.Thanks in advance!!!!

Hello all,I have run into what seems to be an issue out of the blue.  I have a workflow with multiple flexi-tasks used for approval.  The workflow starts out with one, then proceeds to another and another and so on.  The issue is that even though the 2nd flexi-task says it requires input, occasionally the flexi-task will show not required and just sit there stalled out.  Has anyone seen anything like this?Taylor
