I've customized our SharePoint online list using Nintex form. It used to be working in our production list. However, the following message came when we click our SharePoint list. How do I create a ticket for helpdesk?"Sorry, it looks like you don’t have access to this customized form. Please check with your administrator whether your organization is licensed for Nintex Forms."Â
Hello, I am wondering if anyone knows the JSON to apply to the Title column to change the open behaviour of a Nintex form to open in edit mode. The client does not want to click the Ellipse > Edit etc. They want to click the link in the library to present the form in edit mode directly.  I tried the following, but unfortunately, the code is invalid for some reason. Wondering if anyone has any ideas on why this JSON is incorrect or know of a better way to improve the user experience. Thank you. "elmType":"a","txtContent":"[$Title]","attributes":{"target":"_blank","class":"sp-field-quickAction","href":{"operator":"+","operands":["/sites/sitename/Lists/listname/EditForm.aspx?ID=","[$ID]"]}}
With SharePoint 2016 On Prem There is a workflow object "Wait for item update"I can select a field Set a parameter (equals, to not equal, to be empty etc...) then I can set the value of the field S With SharePoint Online Nintex says that "Wait for Field Change in Current Item"Field: Select the field Value: I can enter a value.  My problem is that I need to set a parameter of "to not equal" Can someone assist me on how to configure this.Â
I have a SP list from which I want to dispense calculated lot numbers, that is, the user clicks New, and a form opens with the new, calculated lot number. When saved, the lot number is committed to the list, along with some details the user has filled out. An example of the lot number format is D11005-01, D standing for the decade of the '20s, D1 meaning 2021, 1005 meaning October 5, and the 01 is a sequential suffix...but the format isn't particularly important; I can build that out.My problem is that if it's calculated in a Nintex form (I'm using New Responsive), it can be viewed immediately, but apparently can't be saved back as a SP column. If it's a calculated SP column, it can't be viewed in the New form because it only gets calculated when the item is saved. Am I stating this correctly? Do you have any ideas for getting around this problem?
Hi Folks, I have a list in an O365 site which contains task dates (task start and task end). These dates are in short form and site regional is set to English United Kingdom (i.e. date format is dd/MMM/yyyy e.g. 30/03/2020). Am trying to build a site workflow which will be scheduled to query that list for items whose tasks begin on that date (i.e. Task Start Date is equal to Current Date). I have set a date variable to be todays (datToday) as per below screenshot:That returns a date variable in the format: 30/03/2020 12:51:36 When then using a Query List to pull back only items whose Task Start Date is equal to datToday (see below screenshot)  I get this error: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. Can anyone please advise me how to build a O365 workflow which queries using a date variable? I've seen plenty of topics concerning use of Build String etc but that does not get around the above error. Thanks  G So using a Query List have constructed this: Â
Any advice on the best way to push and pull data in AzureÂ
Hello,I am creating a form that has several fields for our existing customers. I have one field that I need to add a validation rule to; it is for the customer's first name. I am looking for a way to invalidate the first name if it includes spaces as the employees who are filling these out keep putting two first names (spouses) rather than one. They know they are not supposed to do this, but they keep doing it. I would like a validation error to come up that tells them they must only enter one first name. Right now I have it set to where it gives this error if the field contains " and " or " & " but I cannot find a way to do this if it contains a space. I am using SharePoint Online and Nintex Forms for Office 365. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi all, Currently working on a management of change tool where each request for change needs to have a unique id assigned to it. I am using the new responsive designer to design this tool. How do i get nintex to automatically assign a unique ID to each new request? (E.G. when i click on "Request change" it automatically gives that request the number 00001)The column is now a "Number" type in Sharepoint and already checks if that number is unique or not, but i want it to automatically fill in a unique ID instead of manually typing one in. Any help is appreciated.Thanks in advance,JaredÂ

I need to create a folder with subfolders in a document library in Sharepoint Online when a new item is created in a separate list. While researching, I see others use the Create Item or Create Folder actions, neither of which I have in my list of actions. How can I accomplish this?
I have a status field that is hidden on new mode. I want to make a notes field required if the status is approved or rejected. I've tried all the different formulas but when I test it either doesn't make any selection required or it makes all of them even the pending status. I've also tried to hide the notes field based of the same criteria but it doesn't seem to work. I've done a lot of searches but nothing comes up about the criteria field being hidden first. Is it just not possible to have rules based off a hidden field?
This seems to be a recent change in behavior. I have rules on a form that I no longer need because of a change in the business process. After I delete the rule(s), the affected fields are highlighted:Highlighting the fields is okay, as it is a visual signal to the fields the rule affected. However, Nintex generates an error when I try to save and publish the changes:The only way to resolve this is to delete the field(s) from the form, and then add them again. This then requires that I reconfigure the field(s) all over again, which is lots of work if I have set up a default value, input validation, tool tips, etc.Is there a way to delete rules and still publish the changes without having to delete the fields and set them up again?Â
From the documentation there is no description on how to validate on the save button click with custom JavaScript and have the ability to abort saving.Does anybody know how to do so?
Hi, We have Nintex workflow for office 365 setup(list workflows) and has been running fine since more than a year.Recently we have started to get complaints from users who are getting duplicate emails at interval of few minutes. Upon inspection we noticed that workflow started again and hence the duplicate email(which is a step in the workflow branch). This has started to happen across various forms/workflows that workflow gets started multiple time.We did not change workflow start conditions which are set to ,since incorporated a year ago:1) when item created2) Item modified -conditions a) workflow state <> 'value1' AND workflow state <> 'value2' These conditions and workflow logics have been untouched since we went live more than a year ago. Please advise where we can look into further to investigate and fix the issue. ThanksÂ
This topic is about finding the best practises to fulfill the customers need regarding security and permissions.We have decided to use a cloud only user to design and publish Nintex Workflows for Office 365.A small Team of Workflow-Designer will create Workflows when requested from departments with this user.If we create a new Workflow, for example on /sites/sales we add this user to the site collection admins on this particular site.Until here, everthing is fine.We want to have the ability to call SharePoint REST Services via "Web Request"-Action, for example to create a new Teamsite with /_api/GroupSiteManager/CreateGroupEx and therfore we also need the request digest by calling /_api/ContextInfo For this site provisioning process, we have a list with Nintex Forms and a related Nintex Workflow (2 staged approval). When we call /_api/ContextInfo to determine the request digest, we get Status code 403 Forbidden. Do we need an App Registration with AllSites.FullControl and then get the
I am using Nintex Forms for Office 365. I have created a Classic form where I would like to make the title of the form with an incremented number:lemoshl: Form NameForm-000 would like to be Form-0001 when I save the file.I would like the name of the form to be concatenated with the form name and increment by 1 for successive forms.I have searched for solution to the problem and cannot find anything that applies. I am relatively new to Forms so perhaps I just don't know how to interpret what I am seeing.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Yuri

Hi all, I have 2 date fields (start date, end date) in a new responsive nintex designer.I would like to limit the user to choose a date earlier than the start date.I have only found a solution to this in the old responsive nintex designer here: Solved: End date cannot be greater than the start Date - Nintex Community Does anyone have a solution for this using the new responsive designer?Any help is appreciated!
I have a Responsive Designer form with several repeating sections. I have tested this form extensively with my test accounts and we have also conducted user testing without any issue. We launched the form/ workflow this week: of the eight submissions to date, one submission has two fields in a repeating section which are returning empty. Both of these fields have validation rules, so the user could not have submitted the form without filling these in. I have checked the XML in NFFormData and those two fields are also empty there.I can't work out how this could happen - and why it would only happen once - unless the user is doing something crazy which I haven't accounted for (but the same user has successfully submitted three other items). What could be going on here/ how else can I troubleshoot this?I have re-tested the validation rules, and those function correctly - and even if they didn't, the required data is pretty important, so I don't think the user would overlook filling in the
I have a form that is using a lookup to pull information from another list. But some of the people who fill out the from do not have access to that list and can't see the lookup choices. Is there a way around that without giving access to that list?
