I have been able to upload individual files into my form with no problem. This is time-consuming when there are multiple files that need attached. I then had the idea of putting them in in a single folder and uploading the folder. That didn't work. Is there a way to upload a folder to a Nintex form?

I have a situation, where the first Approver need to revise the form and approve / reject it. When the initiator submits the form, Approver 1 gets notified, he should be able to edit the form and make corrections and approve / reject it and send to Approver 2.This is how it is configured now :Is this possible ?Thanks,

There are about 6 different possibilities (ProjectA, ProjectB, ..., ProjectF).In order to use this in further steps I need this values in a lookup column to use them in a cascading dropdown control in my Nintex form.Does anybody know how to copy the value of my single line of text column to the lookup column?Thanks in advanceBest regards

 Symptoms K2 connect issue - identical functions one returns data but second function does not Diagnoses On SAP we have created 2 Remote enabled functions which both use the same export tablesThe Function works as it should on SAP and populates the export table with the correct details. When running the first function through the K2 connect ? test cockpit the export table is populated as expected however when running the second function nothing is populated in this table even though when running on SAP the data is present. Resolution Enabling debugging in SAP allowed us to pinpoint the problem - the data was read from a field that had turned the related party name into capitals and K2 is case sensitive and couldn?t handle it like SAP directly.  

Hi everyone,Question 1:I have this problem that when I store a data in a variable there is a extra letters that I want to delete for example if I use a default string as an output it will show this:i:0#.w|emrsn ogelio.tanand when I use display name as an output it will showTan, Rogelio [CORP/PH]what I want to happen is either delete the i:0#.w|emrsn or [CORP/PH]Also, I'm using a People/Group variable.Question 2:Those People/Group mention above will be stored in a build string action and is there a way to filter those variable because if there is a duplicate of name I don't want it to be stored in the string so every name stored in the string will be unique and no duplication occurs is there a way to do this?The current result of my workflow is like this: Tan, Rogelio [CORP/PH], Tan, Rogelio [CORP/PH], Buena, Melissa [CORP/PH], DL CORP EOC.My desired result is like this Tan, Rogelio [CORP/PH], Buena, Melissa [CORP/PH], DL CORP EOC.The reason why there is a duplication because several it

I have not made any changes to my workflows in months; however, now any time a workflow generates an email notification, 17 emails are being sent.  This behavior began on 3/27.  I have several sites and this behavior is occurring on each site.  I have reviewed the SharePoint/Nintex settings under Central Administration and nothing appears out of the ordinary.  However, temper that statement with the fact that I am not a very experienced SharePoint Administrator. What could possibly be happening?  Any guidance and assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried almost every variation of integer and string variables and list lookups I could think of to simply copy the "Name" column over to the Lookup column... all of which seem to return coercion error.Is there a simple way to achieve this?

So I have a lot of places where I am setting data for a particular item. Generally there is a certain set of data from an item that I need. So my tasks end up with a lot of these:Would it be better performance wise to do one query and set all these into variables? Would this reduce from three queries to 2? In the above case?  (I am aware the pictures don't line up just an example of a query setting three values vs list lookups for each value?  Also what about in the case of ItemProperty? Is it better to do a query as above or just to use ItemProperty lookup? 

Hi, I want to replicate the groups of a site to another, keeping the permitions and the users.Does anybody know how to do it? (Both sites are in the same collection)

Hi,I have a dropdown list in my form that is populated from a Smart Object (SP list) and filtered on a parent control. I only want to show unique values as it is currently returning duplicates.Is there an easy way to do this in SmartForms?Regards,Ciara

Hello all,I have a list workflow with SharePoint Online (Office 365) that can only run if the user has edit permissions for the site (or the list, I suppose; shouldn't make a difference). I've read tutorials like this that describe how you can test for a group, so I figured I could use it to test to see if they're site owners or not. But because this is Nintex Workflow for Office 365, the interface has changed slightly for SOAP requests and I can't seem to get it to work correctly.Is there a straightforward way with REST or with workflows to test that if the initiator has edit permissions?Thank you!

 Symptoms After migrating a SharePoint site from one server to another, there are issues when attempting to activate the site. Diagnoses There are two major issues when attempting to activate migrated sites.1) Group Providers with duplicate names.2) Errors being thrown that a file is checked out. Resolution The full list of requirements for reregistering a SharePoint site after migration is:1) Ensure that it does not have the same name as any other SharePoint site that has been connected to the K2 server. Otherwise, you will have errors regarding the Group Provider.2) Go to https://[SharePoint Subsite URL]/K2Pages/ and ensure that all of the files are checked in. This otherwise causes an error that they cannot be changed.

HiI have a sharepoint list that is refreshed daily with updated data.I'm using Nintex forms on Sharepoint 2010. I have a form with a List Lookup control which accesses the list being refreshed. It is getting a list of locations.Although the form's sharepoint list retains the Location value after the locations lookup list is refreshed with the most up to date locations list, the location disappears out of the form itself after the other location list refreshes. Why would that be?Location displaying in list:Location missing out of form:thanksJoanne

Created a Vacation Request in SP2010 and used Nintex workflow with a choice of all day event or date/time. if choose date/time it doesn,t show time on calendar. So if an employee is out for a Dr appointment from 10am to 12pm my time shows 11:59pm to 12am. any ideas on how to correct this?

 Symptoms When using a SmartObject as a destination on a client step, if you package and deploy the solution using the SP PandD tooling, you will see the error when deploying the workflow in the target environment. (Even if you don't make any changes to the workflow.) Diagnoses After deploying the SP PandD package to the target environment, the destination "InitData" settings expression is updated incorrectly. "Blank values" are ignored and a new expression is compiled to contain less information than before.As a "temporary workaround", you can "rip and replace" (Delete and re-configure) all destinations that use SmartObjects on the target environment. After you have done this, you should be able to deploy again. Resolution This was diagnosed as a bug and has been addressed in the February Cumulative Update (CU) > Fix Pack 6 (FP6). If you run into this issue, please log a new support ticket and request the February CU, with FP6 (Or later)Additional Information: You will have to inst

 Symptoms cannot access k2 designer with the following error.The connection string is invalid:Mail.domain.local.We also cannot open the environments in workdpace Diagnoses Issue of having an error "The connection string is invalid: Mail.." is resolved by updating the Guid value of the TypeID in the [K2].[Environment].[Field] table for "Mail server" to be the same value of TypeID in the [K2].[Environment].[FieldType] for the "Mail server" FriendlyName column Resolution Issue of having an error "The connection string is invalid: Mail.." is resolved by updating the Guid value of the TypeID in the [K2].[Environment].[Field] table for "Mail server" to be the same value of TypeID in the [K2].[Environment].[FieldType] for the "Mail server" FriendlyName column 

Hi experts,I have a fixed text with a calculated value inbetween. But I want to have the calculated value input to be bold:Any ideas how to solve that? One possibility would of course be to divivde that into three parts:Label + calculated value field + labelWith that I could format the calculated value field BUT the second label would be fixed, so the position of it would not change depending on the lenght of the calculated value field.I hope that I explained it somehow reasonable...Cheersmai-kel

 Symptoms When executing an Update method and passing in the EmptyString inline function into a smartobject field to update the value of that field to null/empty, it returns with an error message: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'WHERE' Diagnoses This is an expected behavior. An Empty string is essentially a blank value, which means the string has no value. So, K2 ignores any blank fields as this indicates that it should not be changed. If you specify a value, then it should be changed. Resolution Use SCNULL in a data field instead to clear/blank a value. If you don?t want to use SCNULL, you may also build a stored procedure to update the field to an empty string and call this stored procedure. 

 Symptoms During the configuration of the 'action a worklist item' action, when areas outside the data field label and textbox (under the 'Save Form Fields' section) are clicked, the Serial Number and Action Name fields are removed from the UI and moved to under My Items in the left panel of K2 designer. Diagnoses Labs has determined that this is a bug on version 4.7. Resolution As a workaround, ensure that the fields under 'Workflow item bindings' are filled in before configuring the workflow data fields. Once done, click on OK and the values that you have input will be saved. If you re-configure the rule again, the values are populated.  

 Symptoms  1. When the task has not been opened by anyone, all worklist items have "Available" status 2. When anyone opens the task, the worklist item for that person becomes "Open" and the status for all other users' worklist items ALSO become "Open" 3. When Any of the "Open" Worklist items are released, all associated worklist items become "Available".  Diagnoses  We are using K2 APIs to open, action and manage worklist items. In our code we rely on the fact that a specific Client Event (configured for Plan Just Once and multiple users), will have the following behaviour: 1. When the task has not been opened by anyone, all worklist items have "Available" status 2. When anyone opens the task, the worklist item for that person becomes "Open" and the status for all other users' worklist items become "Assigned" 3. When the "Open" Worklist item is released, all associated worklist items become "Available". In our code we have built in filtering to find said open worklist item as follows:
