Hi Guys, I am testing the water with nintex workflow for office 365, I need keep the trial information for audit purposes and I want to know if the workflow status will desapear after 60 days like in nintex on-premises ? If so is there a workaround to get the workflow history log? ThanksWalter

I've noticed in the Workflow Tasks list the Nintex tasks appear as 'Nintex Task Outcome [GUID string]' in the Content Type column.  I assume there must be a place where this identifying name can be changed to reflect the form/workflow it's associated with, but I haven't found it.  I need to be able to rename this to (for example) "Leave Request" or "AFE Form" to identify the Form/Workflow it is associated with. Any suggestions? Thanks,Gerard

Hello,I am having an issue uploading an image to a Nintex Form on O365. I keep getting a black 'x' in a box anytime I try to upload. Should this image be in JPG? PNG? Are there size restriction? I am placing the image in an image library on a SharePoint and then putting the URL from the image in the URL line. Is this the correct way to do that? I have tried both PNG and JPG, and a couple different sizes but I cannot get it to display. Any help is much appreciated! Thank you!

Hi All I have a nintex form with 20 people picker control  and the page load takes 14  seconds to load .Is there any way I can control this page load time .?.Any suggestion .

Is there any action to move documents from SharePoint document library to another document library. I do not want to copy the document. I need to move the document from sub site library to parent site library.

All,   I have designing a form where I have 6-7 required fields ( single line, people picker, multi-line, drop down). I also have some custom validations to implement (yet to start).  The thing is validation is working fine in preview mode and it is showing Error messages when I am clicking Submit button.  After publishing the form  in SharePoint site when I am simply submitting the form without any value it is submitting without firing any validation. As pointed earlier I have not added any custom validations. I do have some rules for hiding specific sections on form.  I have gone through with lot of community blogs and posts but still no luck. Could you please through some light. Nintex version - Nintex Office 365. Thanks,Rahul

I am looking at option to send document to a repository in different site collection (Record Center). Till now I've found nothing that seems useful. The action O365 Send document to Repository only works within the scope of a site (as mentioned in their documentation). So I am wondering if this is even possible at the moment. I am aware that one option is to use Information Management policy but I am looking if there's any option using NWF. I doubt there is but hope to be proved wrong.  P.S. I am not looking at any copy/upload workarounds. Would rather use IM policies.

Hi Team, Can you please tell me a solution to call a webservice or sharepoint list service from Nintex Form online version.I tried in many ways but eventually returning into errors. Googled a bit and found even we cannot embedd js libraries in Form Settings->Advanced->Custom JS Includes. Files are not getting referenced. Request you to please provide me a solution for this. Thanks,Karthik.

How can I lookup different language texts (each language has its own row) to pull in to a Calculated Value in Nintex Forms for Office 365 - so that language selection from a pulldown would change the content of the calculated value?

Greetings, I am running into an issue with Nintex forms where the background color does not cover the entire form but rather about 1/3 of the form. Please see attached image. The design of the form includes hidden fields or form controls, so when the form is first initiated, several fields or forms controls are hidden from the users. The stated issue only occurs when the fields are hidden. After the form is submitted and when all the fields are displayed, the background color fills the entire form.  Am I missing a setting within the form designer? Any input or feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advanced for your time.

I am working on a time sensitive app for one of our departments for which I felt Nintex form & workflow is perfect for the app needs and it works beautifully. (As always! Easy to setup, easy to customize, easy to task any and all approves and very easy for them to approve )One last requirement of theirs(and most desired for them) was that the final approved form with electronic signatures bea) Printable b) Shared with final group  of users without the attachments in the form which the group should NOT need to see.I used Document Generation action that was available for us to address the above final requirements and it works I envisioned it to, except I have a couple of questions that need clarifications before I go further down this path. I can always find alternative solutions for accomplishing this but would LOVE to use Document Generation action as it could be very handy and useful for several of our end-users.As seen in the below image, I get a warning in the “Document Generat

Why does not work this action today? I had a workflows that works perfectly, but today, the workflow is stopping in this action without any error. Actually, the action is executed but the workflows does not continue! It happens to someone else?

Error occurs on any Nintex Action that involves getting a display name, email address, login name, etc of ANY user that has a single quote (') in their name, for example O'Shea Details of last request: HTTP BadRequest to https://mytenant.sharepoint.com/sites/procurement/requests/_api/sp.utilities.utility.ResolvePrincipalInCurrentcontext?input='Tim+O'Shea'&scopes='15'&sources='15'&inputIsEmailOnly='false'&addToUserInfoList='True'&matchUserInfoList='true' Correlation Id: 1931954a-7d11-b98f-b08e-45febad817b2 Instance Id: e6d2133b-4022-4532-8a93-3465334e72a1  The location of the problem is obvious in the API call, but can anyone else confirm they are seeing this as well. Opened a ticket with Nintex ref:_00D90q6Cb._500901AA7l9

Hi,We are developing an application using nintex form and work flow, in my application we have a requirement to load rolling of 12 month from current month and this need to be in repeating control,So i have a repeating control inside i have place a choice control and make it drop down, and provided some default choice field since its mandatory, in formready in javascript i am finding this choice field and removing existing option and appending my dynamic values based on current month, its loads properly and when i submit the form i am getting below error message  Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order

I'm working in a document library that uses versioning (minor and major), but does not require check-out of documents. I've created a workflow that does various things to a document in this library. The last thing that the workflow does is check the document in as a major version. However, when I go back to the library, the document has the version 1.1.  After I check the document in, I write to the workflow log and change the workflow status, but surely these actions shouldn't affect the document itself, right? What is strange is that the workflow log shows that the document was checked in as 1.0. Where does the new minor version come from? Please help! Many thanks in advance.  Kasia.

Need help to do implement this workflow

In the previous version it was possible to CC someone when assigning a task, but this option doesn't seem to be available in the 365 version. Is there a workaround for this?

Good Morning! I am trying to retrieve SharePoint list data and populate a repeater with 4 columns on a dropdown change event.

Hello all I've set up a InfoPath form for users requesting IT applications which then kicks off a Nintex workflow. There is a repeating table in the InfoPath form so that the user can selected Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Thanks to a Switch Action the workflow can handle a user selecting one application and assign approval to one approver, what I need to do now is enable the workflow to handle multiple requests (e.g Word, Excel, Powerpoint) and the approval requests can be sent to different approvers depending on what's been selected.

Hello all, I asked this question about a month ago: How can I change the Appearance of the checkboxes in Nintex forms I thought I had the answer but it looks like the solution I arrived on, hides the check boxed when they are printed, and the solution others suggested works well, but only in internet explorer and to a degree chrome.  I tried adding in a line of-moz-appearance: none; but it had no affect.  Help me nmarples you're my only hope.
