I'm building a form where I have both submitters and approvers viewing the form. I want to be able to identify the current person in the form and compare to that list then build a rule that either makes field visible or editable accordingly. I searched and tried a few options but none seem to quite fit the bill...I see where I can identify the current user but I can't figure out how to compare them to the SP List of users in a formula or variable to use in a rule. HELP! -I'm using the Responsive Designer

Hi all, I have a form where we ask for a customer's phone number to be captured (UK phone number so format is 11 digits eg. 01234 567890). Is there anyway to enforce that a number is captured?If we have the field as a number within the Sharepoint list rather than single line of text it deletes the proceeding 0 once saved to the list which doesn't work for us. Any ideas/help welcome :smileyhappy:

My company is currently exploring the possibility of a workflow. We have multiple items that need to be approved or rejected. We would like one email a day with all the items to be approved. The real sticking point here is that we need to be able reject or approve any individual items, not just approve or reject the whole batch. Is something like this possible?

I am not sure if anybody has faced an issue with email notification having from clause noreply@workflownotification.com. How do you get rid of this noreply@workflownotification.com from email from clause, when a user receives an email from Nintex workflow? Please let me know if any user had this issue and found a solution to this! Thank youAjay

Workflows that been running for months have started periodically going into a "Suspended state"  they will they terminate.  This is impacting 2 different workflows.  Error messages attached. 

I cannot seem to attach .msg or .xlsm files into any forms.  Is there a way I can modify the attachment control to allow such files or is this inherent to the software and not modifiable?   I am using the new responsive 

In a button setting, I would like redirect to a site page with multiple query string ,e.g.SiteURL/SitePages/MyPage.aspx?formID=ID&mode=1 However, Nintex was auto encode the "&" to "&" in run time, such that

My workflow simply stops if I try to get and item from a collection and the collection is empty or the collection count is zero. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm using a Regular Expression to get the the comment from a LazyApproval reply into a collection.If the LazyApproval does not contain a comment (no , and comment) the collection is empty or has a count of zero.When I use the get item from collection and get item zero if there is no comment (collection empty) the workflow simply stops dead in it's tracks. Does anyone experience this problem? Is this how the get item from collection action is supposed to work?  I've switched my workflow to test if item count is zero before running the get item to circumnavigate this problem, but that adds a number of actions that frankly I think are unnecessary. Shouldn't the get item from collection just return null if the collection is empty and allow the workflow to continue? Thanks for any input into this.

I have a migrated form that has a hidden layout that I can't find or remove. It only show when I go to publish. It doesn't show as a layout prior to going to publish. I've deleted the mobile form and recreated the layout, however the 'Nintex Mobile for iPad' still show when i go to publish. Is there a way to find all the layouts and delete any not required? Maybe with SharePoint Designer?     

Hi, Looking for a solution for the problem below.The use case Example: We have a list named grocery as per following table structure. We need to get the count of items which has price less than 10 in the form designer before it is submitted.  Item Price Mangoes 25 Apple 10 Orange 5 Grape 3 Banana 13  Output should be: 2 (as there are only 2 items which has value less than 10). P.S.: Someone suggested using a SharePoint CAML query filtering, and using it with calculated column. Or perhaps use SharePoint column of type “Lookup” and type of “Calculated” column. But I am not able to get them or integrate with Nintex forms. Can anyone help?"

While fetching data from a sharepoint list richtext  item data that contaings current site URL, to generate word document the doc gen step fails because the rich text converts the absolute path of current site to  relative url like --> '/sites/xxxxxxxxx.aspx'. when the rich text field has such relative url, the document generation step fails. i used replace substring step to relace the /sites/  with the current environment domain name like https://mycompanydomain.sharepoint.com/  and it gets replaced properly and assigned the replaced rich text content to a string and assigns that string in the document tagger in word document. But i get word document with Full HTML content without the HTML gettting parsed like this.  

We have a column with client names as a drop down. Our users use this field to select the name of a client whom they are working for. In case the client name does not exist in the drop down, is it possible that the user is able to type inside the field directly and submit the form?  If that is not possible, lets say we have 'Other Client' as one of the values in the drop down. Once that is selected, is there a possibility to open a new text field where the user will be able to add a new client name and submit? This is how it is currently implemented in InfoPath. However looking for something similar in Nintex New Responsive Form  

I have a form with a lookup control that has a large list of options and it needs to be multi-select.  Is this type of control available in New Responsive so I don't have to fill the page with checkboxes?  (See image)  (This screencap is from a classic Nintex form)

I am using Nintex workflow for office 365 - Document Generation to generate word document from online sharepoint list data. The list has 6 richtext fields and the nintex workflow fetches data from all these 6 richtext column data and generates word document. i triggers this workflow only when the item is modified this workflow triggers perfectly and when the 6 richtext fields have only pure text without any links, it generates word document without any issue.But when any of the richtext field has links, then the document generation flow fails and suspends saying 'There is a problem with the syntax of one or more hyperlinks or mailto links in the document.' (Data Invalid) (Error Id: 283e8e0e-cb2e-4c15-b807-7bf49c63d262) Error message is attached with this post. 

We have licensed nintex workflow for office 365. We use nintex workflow for office 365 for generating word document from a sharepoint online list data. The list has around 7 richtext fields. When the richtext fields has raw data, the document is generated without any issues. But when any of the richtext field contains link ( https://www.testinglink.com) , then this document generation workflow fails and it is suspended.The error message is --> There is a problem with the syntax of one or more hyperlinks or mail to links in the document. Data Invalid) (Error Id: 283e8e0e-cb2e-4c15-b807-7bf49c63d262) .Please help me in resolving this.  

Hi all, Hoping this isn't a stupid question!I have a rather long responsive form and am using groups with collapsible headers to section out the form. Is there a way I can force the form to open with the sections CLOSED (collapsed)? I have noticed that even if the groups are collapsed then the form is saved, the form displays with the sections OPEN. And for bonus points does anyone know how to print the form (using EDGE Browser) showing the form exactly as it displays? It too, shows all the groups as OPEN.Thanks

Is there any method of integration between office 365 and drupal? For example- any module, api, etc. 

I already have a well developed workflow which have included send an email action and start a process action. The recipient of these actions is set to SharePoint Group. I would like to making some changes on the name of those SharePoint Group. Is it going to affect the connection of those recipent group?

We have a series of similar workflows across multiple sites. The simplest of these is a single action: an email is sent when a list item is created. We have found on a few of these workflows (the simple one included) that the workflow repeatedly sends the email to the entire recipient group. This continues to happen until the workflow is manually terminated.   The same workflow exists on other sites (literally an export/import) and they work correctly.   For context, the recipients for the email are almost always the default members/owner/visitors groups that belong to that site. The list item has a recipient field where this is specified.   Any help would be appreciated. We are currently working with Nintex Support and Microsoft to understand the issue, but want to rule out anything simple on our side.

Hi Guys   Using the new responsive forms designer and cant figure out how to do a simple else if function?   I have a label where the text changes depending on a value in a field Field Value = 1, Label text = 90 Deg Field Value = 2, Label text = 180 Deg Field Value = 3, Label text = 270 Deg Else Label text = Standard I can do the Field Value = 1, Label text = 90 Deg, Else Label text = Standard (See attached) but cant figure out how to add the other variables?   Thx   Geoff

I need to extract the month from a variable. In my workflow, I have a set variable action that uses the executed date. I need to get the month from that. So if the workflow runs on 8/26/2020, I want the return to be August. I am sure that there is probably an easy way to do this with a regular expression but none of what I am using works. When I was on 2013, I simply did a build string formatting the date, but I don't think that formatting is an option in O365.

I have used the "start a task process" action a number of times when needing to utilize parallel tasks for a group of people. Oftentimes I'm wanting to assign a task to each member of the group and then allow the first responder to determine the workflows next step (approve/reject). However, for whatever reason when working with the action today, I cannot seem to get the assigned tasks to be broken out for each member of the group (thus notifying each member). Is this an issue with the current build or perhaps I'm just missing something simple here? I am manually setting the group value to the participants setting to ensure that it's not a variable parsing issue:I'm also making sure that the "Assign a task to each member within groups" is checked. I also held my mouth right, said a few Hail Marys, and burnt some incense for good measure. Any ideas? With the above configuration, I still cannot get individual tasks to be created for the group members:

I am trying to find the equivalent of a confirmation message dialog pop-up when a form is submitted for the NEW responsive designer. I have done this with the Classic design and can see you can create validation rules in the new designer but can't see the same confirmation message option?

While using the responsive form designer, XML output from my repeating section uses encrypted field names or GUIDs rather than the actual field name. The highlighted value below should display the text "color"    Please note, this issue is NOT experienced when using the classic designer.
