Hi,Is there a method of creating a list item in another site from Nintex O365 Workflow?

Hello!I’m having some difficulties with setting a date field to the current date when another control is changed.Example:User modifies form and selects “Approved” for form status, the date field should then populate with current date.I am able to achieve getting the current date value, however, if the form is modified again the date field updates.I am currently using a rule to cause this date field to update: Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hello.My SharePoint list have a number of location choices columns. I had to split them and hide them base on user choice or else the Nintex form would be massive. My question is there any way to combine all the choice columns into one big collection in Nintex workflow so that I can query the picked choice against another SharePoint list?Thank you for your time.

I made a change to the SharePoint list to add an additional choice to the existing column, but the change did not automatically publish on the Nintex form.  When I go to preview, it shows in the form, but apparently I need to publish the form in order for it to show on the form permanently.  When I go to publish the form, it throws a “Something went wrong” error.  I don’t have any rules set up that reference this column I’m trying to make the change to, and there have been no other versions or changes completed on this form since I published it back in January of this year, so I am unsure why just adding a choice to an existing column would cause this error.

I am trying to use JavaScript inside a Nintex Form for Office 365. When I write the code inside the Custom JavaCript block of the form settings, it works perfect. However when I use my own JavaScript file and put it into the Advanced block it doesn't work and says SP is not defined. When I look the developer tools I see that my JavaScript file is loaded before sp.js and JQuery.Is there a way to make my JavaScript be loaded last? or solve this problem?

I'm migrating a workflow from On Prem to Office 365.  The current site workflow uses the "Encoded Absolute URL" field to get the individual URL for each list item.  This field doesn't exist in Office 365.   Any ideas how to accomplish this?

Used this post by: @MegaJerk to take contents of each repeating section and put into table in column (there are two repeating sections on my form).Issue: I tried to set up what this posting showed but the data from the repeating sections are not showing up as tables in columns.Environment: Nintex O365Form fields (See Form1858Image.gif file)Custom Javascript is attached (customJS.txt) 

Hi All, I have a site that was recently migrated to 365 from On Premise. For the on premise site, I was able to create a webpart on a list page that was linked to the workflow start page of a site workflow so that users could start a specific site workflow daily.    I cannot seem to find this feature on 365. I have seen some input to a similar question which included the use of SharePoint Designer, I do not have SharePoint Designer.    Is there any way to provide a direct link to one workflow only for users to be able to start it? I do not want people to be able to go to the site workflow page and start from there.    Please advise. 

I used this post to set up a form to display an image depending on what they sleect from a dropdown.  It works perfectly except when I open a form in Display mode.  It only displays the URL (see images attached)

This may be a simple case of not knowing the correc terms to search for, so please bear with me: I want to be able to fill out a form (Office365) and submit it via a script or API call.  The API references I've found all talk about form management covering create /remove / export / of the form structure itself but I'm looking for a mechanism to pipe fieldnames+data to an address to create&submit an existing form.Any pointers to where I need to look would be much appreciated.Thanks.  

Hi All, I have an attachment control on a SPO list form in Responsive designer. I am trying to add a rule to the control to invalidate the form if there is no attachment. So if a user chooses a specific value in a different control, then this attachment control should be considered for validation, if not then it should be ignored. I tried a bunch of formulas in vain. The attachments item properties is null as it's a new field and there is no value. I see a {self} in Named controls. How do I use this to check if there is an attachment uploaded or not. Below doesn't work: {self} == FALSE{self} =="" Any help is appreciated. 

I have several posts where I am applying CSS to a New Responsive form to get a changed layout. This is one of the first posts that go into detail about how to get the CSS to work Apply CSS to New Responsive Form Today I have been tinkering with a New Responsive Form with multiple select Lookups to populate images based on the user selection dynamically. I did not like the horizontal layout of the checkboxes. If I set it to vertical and made two separate lookups, and could get close to having the checkboxes in the first column and the images to the right or remailing columns. This leaves a visible gap between the two “rows.”I would have left it this way, but this uncovered some bugs in the form, specifically related to the two fields, and some users could not save the form when they interacted with these lookups. I stripped out the fields and went with the one multiple-select field across the top of the images, but it did not flow for me. I started digging into the CSS again. If I could

Does anyone use Nintex Forms in SharePoint online? Our dev team has just started developing with it online and a simple form with nothing complex can take over 1 min to load, our users will freak at this poor performance if we try migrate them from on prem to online. 

In a previous post, I discussed how to implement CSS into the New Responsive Form: https://community.nintex.com/t5/Responsive-Forms/Add-HTML-and-CSS-to-New-Responsive-Form/td-p/228037. Today I am going to show you how to take this another step further, and apply CSS to horizontal radio buttons to align them evenly. The Responsive Form provides little formatting and layout modifications. Beyond this, it stops or is very limited. In a form I was developing, I had a choice dropdown next to choice radio buttons. They did not fit horizontally, and I did not want them vertically, so I had to think of a way to align them creatively. I guess you can add spaces to all the choices so they are all the same length, but this is not something I want to play with for now, or if my options change, play with them later.Going back to Developer Tools, I was able to see the layout and structure of the radio buttons. Inside the group container, I could see that each radio button input had an attribute of d

Hello,    How do I create an approval workflow that flows based on nine individual choices selected from the choice-selection option on the form?   A person selects their location (from nine) The approval is different for each location   This is in Nintex Workflow office 365   Any help is greatly appreciated 

When submitting a form users get prompt that says    Leave site? Changes may not be saved? There was a thread about this in 2020. I noticed this issue last year and now its happening again. Any solution from Nintex on how to disable this prompt to avoid confusion? 

My team is recreating InfoPath forms in Nintex O365 and we have a requirement to restrict the approval sections to members of SharePoint Groups.  However, the business relies heavily upon security enabled distribution lists, and I'm finding that adding the dlist to the permission group is not working with the form  fn-IsMemberOfGroup check.  Is this a known limitation?  Is there a work around?
