Hi, we recently migrated from SP13 to SharePoint online. On SharePoint 13, we have a request form where user submit request to access to an application and that application accepts login name in domainloginname format.SharePoint 13/Nintex for SP13 easily provides the user account in "domainloginname" format. After migrating to SharePoint Online, User Profile stores the account name in email format but not in domainloginname format. I can ask user to provide their account name in "domainloginname" format in the request or I can use Flow to get the "Nickname" property, wondering if there is a way with Nintex for Office 365? I also tried querying user profile using REST API, but no luck as it always stores in email format.  

Hi , I am on SharePoint 365 and wondering why nintex is failing and my workflow is getting suspended. Anyone else come across this issue? An exception occurred while processing request. Correlation ID: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx

Hello,we would like to import / export Nintex Workflows and Nintex Forms from one SharePoint Online Site Collection to another Site Collection automatically.  So far we successfully used the concept, described on https://help.nintex.com/en-us/sdks/sdko365/Reference/REST/NWO_REF_REST_Auth.htm Our Goal:We would like to change the authentication method from the current user-based authentication method (described on the URL) towards a “SharePoint App-Only” (with Client ID and Client Secret). Is this possible? We did not find any information about this

I have a workflow that takes data from a repeating table on List A and creates a new item on List B for each row entered onto the repeating table. This works great, but if a new row is added to the repeating table and then a user saves the form, all existing repeating data plus the new entry will be copied to List B thus creating duplicate data. The repeating table has two fields, Client ID and Client Name. I would like to find a way to use the query List function on List B and check the Client ID against the existing values on the list and not add if it's already present.  Here is a screenshot of my existing workflow - I'm unsure of how to utilize the query list function and what else could be employed to prevent duplicate entries. I appreciate any help!

Hi All,  A site that I managed has been migrated by the company to 365. I was told that all Nintex features were available before approving the migration. When going in to check the workflows, I see that the Start Workflow action is not available and have the attached errors. I do not see an alternative action in 365. is this an action that can be enabled from my end or is this not a feature in the company's license version? Please advise

Hi, I cant get this to work properly. I have a person or group field on a list and at the end of the workflow, I want to clear the field. I'm using the 'Set Field in Current Item' action currently to set the field to a blank variable. This seems to only partially remove the user entity from the field though as the edit form is broken for the specific item when the workflow has ran. I can also see on the display form that the field still contains some information. Any help on how to do this would be appreciated. Thanks

I have an issue of Column Name in Repeating Section.In Form, I create "Departure Country" in Repeating Section.But after submitting it, it is recorded as "_bd44be4485249ec3c523b56708061cfa". What is the solution for this issue?

Hello Nintex Community!  I am looking for some help to pull and auto-populate a field. In the form we are building there is a field for user name (text field) and company (drop down). In the default value for user name we are using the Context function to get "Current display name". In the company field I want it to auto-populate the company based on the user's name. Both these fields are read-only fields as we don't want users to adjust the company name field.  The requirement is to have a user login and every time they fill out a new form they can see their name and company but not be able to change those fields.  I am using the new responsive designer to build the form.  Thank you for your help!

I need to write a formula which updates a calculated value if there is a value in a form field, but doesn't update the calculated value if the form field is empty.I've been trying to use the “If” Runtime Function, and in the formula builder the syntax is reported as:If(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if false) How do I say, for value_if_false, do nothing? If I use quotes for value_if_false, this overwrites the value in the calculated value with a null value.Or is there another way to say, for a calculated value formula, if there's a value in the form field, write that value to the calculated value, else do nothing?

I am trying to find a way to create ifElse statements in the New Responsive Designer under variable, for numbers in between two decimals. I loved the video tutorial for ifElse statements in the Risk Matrix, but unfortunately, with decimals, I have too many possible numbers to add them all as == . Is there a way to create a statement that allows for ifElse to search between two numbers (in my case, decimals), to evaluate to true/false? My Example:  I would like to get the number of possible points, based on if they fall between the lower and upper numbers. 

We are using a custom C# solution to update the Items using SystemUpdate() for a Nintex associated list in SharePoint Online. But, we see that the Nintex workflow is getting triggered whenever solution runs. As we are running the solution almost for all the Nintex associated sites, updating the workflow and running the solution every time is not a feasible. Is there any way to update the item without triggering the Nintex workflow.   Any help on this would be appreciated!!!

Hi Everyone, I am trying to work with signatures with no luck so far. Below is the scenario.   The user submit the Nintex form for approval along with signing in the signature field. The workflow then send the form for approval to the manager including all the initial details filled in by the applicant. The manager then approves the application along with his/her signature in the signature field and forward to processing team who then checks signature of both individuals(applicant & manager) with the signatures saved in a file.    I am able to get the flow running except manager and applicant signature not visible to the processing team.   Any help will be much appreciated

Hello Community, Can somone please explain the Nintex forms licensing for office 365? I once worked on a project where for 1 Nintex workflow, 5 Nintex forms were free. Can someone please suggest if its only possible to buy Nintex forms licenses alone and what would be the cost?   Regards, Vaibhav

Hello, I want to show / hide some controls based on the membership of the current user. the group i need to check is different per item, i need to check it based on a property (CountryName). When i put the fn-ismemberOfGroup function in the expression as fn-IsMemberOfGroup("Norway"), it works fine. when i use the following expression the item property is never used, fn-IsMemberOfGroup("CountryName") however when i user a Common property it works fine. Further i tried to use the fn-IsMemberOfGroup("CountryName") using a rule but that didn't work out either. Is it possible to use this function with a rule or expression at run time and put in a dynamic group name? 

Hi all,  I am currently working on a Sharepoint list where i am using nintex forms to help with the functionality.In this list the user needs to be able to add as many machines that they are using for a job with all the needed info required by the company. For this i decided to use the repeating section within nintex.In the repeating section i have columns such as Description, Weight, Dimensions, How is the machine powered, etc.But nintex doesnt have an out of the box solution how this data can be easily stored in the columns of my Sharepoint List.I have tried looking for a solution on this forum but the answers i got were either out of date or were too complex for me too understand (Total noob to nintex).Repeating section data gets saved as XML and i want to extract this data and put it into the relevant columns of the Sharepoint List.Can anyone help me walk through this problem and how i can solve it? (I am using the new responsive designer btw) Many thanks in advance,Jared

Hi, we are using Project Online and would like to understand how can we use the Enterprise custom fields within Nintex workflows? Is this possible, if yes please can someone point me to some documentation on how this is done. Thank you.

Good morning, I'm trying to create a New Responsive designer form and I noticed that it won't grab the Image field or the Hyperlink field from SharePoint.  I'm assuming these aren't implemented yet?  Is there any plan to implement them in the future? Thanks,Michael 

Good morning, I'm trying to determine what accessibility standard that the Nintex Forms for Office 365 meet.  I see there is no validation summary option (none I can figure out anyway) in the New Responsive Design, but my understanding is that that is a requirement for WCAG 2.1 AA.   I'm not accessibility pro by any means, just trying to match old forms to new forms and noticed I couldn't do this. Thanks,Michael

Hi all, After i finished creating my form in nintex, i went back to SharePoint to create the necessary columns in my list. When i tried to connect these newly created columns to my fields in the nintex form, none of them work anymore (even the ones that have no relation to the new columns). I even tried to create some simple new rules to test if they will work and none of them do.Is this a possible bug in Nintex or does anyone have a solution for this problem? Many thanks in advance,Jared
