Nintex Live Form connection with List Item

I’m trying to find a way to connect a list item to a Nintex live form item. I'm struggling to build a unique Nintex Live URL to include the item ID.

 

Context:

An internal user creates an item in the list

An external user receives a link to the Nintex live form (via a workflow that is started when the internal person creates and submits a list item)

When the external user completes and submits the Nintex live form, it creates a new item in the list. (Problem is: it needs to update an existing item that was created by the internal user – the item where the workflow is running).

How can I achieve this? If this is not possible, what would be an alternative solution to having both data from internal and external as 1 list item?

Did you ever get this working? Struggling with this right now...

Unfortunately I couldn't. I created a reference field in list 1 where the internal recipient creates the item. I then add it as a query string in the Nintex live form URL. So when the external user submits and the external information is updated in list 2, atleast I have a reference field referencing the internal details in list 1.

Would you be interested in or able to outline that process (the query string part)? I would love to utilize that solution but am still fairly new to Nintex. Thank you!!!!
