Hello, I'm building a responsive form for restricted site access.  The matrix of Area is kept in a custom list and accessed via look-up.I have a look-up control for the Area with calculated fields to retrieve the competency and approver team for the selection.  This forms the row of a repeating section, so the users can add multiple areas. Usually the approver is a superintendent, but there are some areas with special access requirements.I was hoping to have the special access person field appear in the approval section only when the user selects an area requiring special approval.e.g. IT Approval.  The logic on the control - if all areas selected  in the repeating section do not contain "IT Approval" then hide the IT Approver field.However, there isn't an Eval or Concat operator in Nintex.  Only numeric operators... e.g. Sum.I thought I could place a number field in each row... If Approver = "IT Approver" then 1 else 0.  Then sum the total... If >0 then show field.  However, When I

I have a repsonsive form in SharePoint Online with a few images. The images render fine in edge, but don't appear in chrome or firefox. Is this a current limitation? Below are some screenshots of the same form from the different browsers. Edge         Chrome        Firefox 

I am new to Nintex Workflows for Office 365, and I can't seem to find an update document action where you can change the value of a content control in a Word file. I used it pretty often in Workflows for sharepoint on premises, Is this available for sharepoint online?

Hi!I'm trying to migrate the list item to my dev environment using sharegate. In my Nintex form we have a list view that shows items related, sorted by customer so we can look at the customer history transaction.When I do, I see all metadata and content carried over but not the listview control contents. In that list item.  Is anyone else have some experience here? Thanks.

I have built a form in the new responsive designer that requires several signatures. If the submission is approved the last step is to use DocGen to create an official copy of the form with signatures.  My issue is I do not understand how to get each signature (attachment) URL into a unique variable so that I can tag them accordingly in the DocGen template. Using Euan Gambles great video seen here I have successfully added 1 to the document, but the names of the attachments created do not appear to have any consistency. 

Happy  New Year to y'all! The problem I am having isI am trying to write some code that would allow me to import the same site or a list workflow into Office 365 .We have 3 environments – DEV/TEST/PROD with identical structure. We generally develop artifacts (forms and workflows) on dev, export them into our solution and then import them into TST and PROD. I am trying to write code that would automate importing of list and site workflows. Now the problem I am having is that you have 2 separate APIs, one to import a new workflow, and another to import on top of existing workflow. To import on top of existing workflow, I need to know it’s ID. In my experience, once you import a workflow from one environment to another, the ID changes so i cannot hard code the id in the code. Also, I do not know if my workflow is there yet or not !  I know, say, list url/id/title and I know the workflow title. How can I check if the workflow with the specified name already exists and if it does, how could

As I'm deploying the Nintex App through via App Catalog and for this reason there is NO ribbon on the libraries/lists how can I get to the list workflows then?? I cant find anything related to it on the nintex documentation. Note that I'm using O365.

Hi, I have a panel that has drop a down of the following choices. I need help calculating from the dropdown. I need a formula that adds BasePrice (PC price) + Costs (dropdowns and checkboxes) I want the sum of BasePrice + Costs as a Total value output. so Individuals filling out the form can see what extra options does to the Baseprice. currently my formula adds ($1400+$45) as $1409 which strange because it adds the $45 as 9 (4+5)?                                                          choices1. Docking station                          None($0) Docking station($100)2. Backpack                                  None($0) company backpack($45)3. Primary Monitor4. Secondary monitorcheckboxesUSB (yes/No ) where yes         ($20)

Hi all, Bit of an unusual one. I have entered the following code in to the 'Custom Javascript' field of the Form Settings section:  When I save & close the settings and preview the form, it does exactly what I want which is great...    However, when I re-open the Form Settings, the page breaks have been actioned in the text and it now appears as below:   If I then save the settings and preview the form, the code no longer works and no text is pre-populated in the multi-line text box. Therefore every time I open the Form settings to make a change, I have to re-format the custom Javascript and add back in the '<br>' text.  Is this a known issue or is there anything I can do so that I don't have to edit the text every time I open the settings?(I am very new to Nintex and/or Javacript so apologies if this is fairly straightforward) Thanks in advance!

I was having issues with a For Each loop inside a branch of a State Machine where it would only run the Component Workflow once when I sent it to two values (countries).  Thought I would be clever and move the For Each loop down into the Component Workflow and parse the two values as a Collection variable.  Now I find the workflow just steps over the Component Workflow altogether and goes to the Next State without actioning the Site Workflow at all.  I checked the Site Workflows from Site Contents and found the Component Workflow just do not start. I am starting to think my variable is a) not being sent correctly or b) not setup correctly but I am not getting any errors.  I have pasted in the screenshot of the workflow branch and the log that was created by all the History logs I have to try and error trap my issue.  Any hints as to what I should try next.

Is there a formula that I can use to get the value of a control in the previous row of the repeating section so that I can compare the value with the current row control. I am using a responsive form and I am unable to add any java script to achieve this. Please provide suggestions or alternatives I can use. Thanks in Advance.

Hi, I got a requirement to create a Sign Up form for the Visa Corporate cards, we have total 3 corporate cards. once the card is booked no other user can book the same card.For this requirement I have created 2 SharePoint list.1st list called cards.  I have created the below mentioned fields,  cardsavailable and available are calculated fields.2nd list is a actual sign up sheet called visa corporate. here I have added a lookup field that comes from the 1st list(cards)Then I built a nintex form on the sign up sheet and added a lookup field with the below mentioned filter condition, when the card is available on the 1st list then only it will appear on the sign up sheet, otherwise not shown up in the dropdown field of the lookup field. What I want, if the all cards are booked on the 1st list, then what formula can I use to hide the lookup field in the sign up sheet? Note: when all cards are booked on the 1st list then drop down field shows no values (cards). #Thanks.

Hi everyone, new ish to Nintex...is there a workflow that can copy metadata from a top level folder in a SharePoint document library to all subfolders and files within it?   Regards

I see a few topics discussed on the subject however, most are not O365 and they have very unique situations that I don't have. My situation is very simple, I have users submitting a form to a list with attachments.  After everything hs been completed and approved I will trigger a workflow to run.  This part I got.  In this workflow I want to move the item plus attacments to a new list for archiving purposes. I already call the web service for the attachments in a nother workflow to email the user, however, I have not figured out how to move the item to a new list nor attach the attachments to an item.  I can create a new item and fill it with the data but there are over 100 columns that I would rather not hand pick, is there a way to easily move an item?  I can do a copy to new then a delete on the old, this works as well.

Hello All, I am here to share my experience on creating dynamic repeating section in the nintex form. We will call the RestAPI to the List and get the data from the list and fill the fields dynamically in the repeating section. firstly we have to create another list with Data , for example: "KPI"  KPI is the list that we have created and use that list to get the data to the form fields in our Dynamic repeating section.  Create the css class for the repeating section and also for the fields in the repeating section CSS class name for repeating section(KPIData), CSS class names for the fields in the repeating section(KPINumber,Objective,Topic,Target,Period,Score0,Weight,Rating,Record) Please look at the code below //-----------------------------------------------------//function GetKPI(){var result;var RestUrl;var hostweburl;var appweburl;var hostweburl1;var appweburl1;var pollSP;var Dept = NWF$('#' + DeptVar).val();var DeptFrom = NWF$('#' + DeptFormVar).val();var Period = NW

Is it possible to filter the results of Query List action by the content type? I don't see it as an option in the drop down list. Please see attached screenshot

I have a task form that requires an input field and has a submit button.  When I open the task from the link in the task email I receive, the task goes into edit mode.  When I open it from My Tasks it seems to be in view mode.  I can set the button itself to be visible and enabled when opened from the task list but I can't set the input box to be visible and enabled.  Is there something I am missing to allow users to work out of a task list versus having to open every task from the email they get?  I searched around and found on older solution which adds javascript to the form to modify the URL and force edit mode but I want to make sure there isn't a solution I am missing before I resorted to that with all my forms. Thanks for your time

Hello Team, As of now when we open the item then we see the print to pdf button and if suppose there are many items in the list is there a way that I can use the print to pdf button at a time for all the items?    Also is there a way to hide the Print to Pdf button in the edit form? 

Any suggestions to get into form designer?  I am a site collection admin and we have purchased the app.  I emailed support, just looking for suggestions in the meantime.

hi i am creating workflow for archieval that copy item from one list to another with attachments.but did everything it is working fine on whenever attachments alredy exists on item its workingother wise its giving me this error{"error": {"code": "-2130247142, Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException","message": {"lang": "en-US","value": "Folder ""40"" does not exist."}}}

Hello Community,My workflow was suspended with the following issue:Details: The instance has exceeded the outbound http request quota for a 1.00:00:00 time period. The 5000 request limit was reached in 20:30:58.6858429. My question is less about why this error happens and more about what constitutes an "outbound http request".  Does this count for every modue that accesses an item on sharepoint or each 'current item' within the moduel that is accessed?  Meaning if I am doing the below in one build string module:"‍{Current Item:salesUserId}‍", "jobTitle": "‍{Current Item:Project Name}‍", "orderQuantity": ‍{Current Item:QuantityBand}‍Does that count as one hit against me or three?  Also is it only 'Current Item' objects that count or does it also count workflow variables?My work flow is large (~250 modules) and I want to gain understanding about how these issues come up.Thanks!-Steve

Hi.I am running a query list to pick up an email , it is stored in a collection. I found if i tried using it in an email it failed. Having looked at the collection with log to history it produces [email@blah.com]. The [] are the issue. I found that if i use For each and set the output value to a variable  (person) then it works. However if the field i am looking at in the first place has the option of multiple people then the collection output is [[email@blah.com]]. So the option i used prior does not work as it only strips the first [].Soooo I then used a "get from collection" creating a new collection that now only has [email@blah.com] which i can use in my For Each.This works (took me many hours of fiddle) however there is no need for the for each loop beyond stripping the []. There must be an easier way to strip the [] or [[]] from my initial collection. I suspect it may be a regular expression but have no idea how.Help appreciatedCy

Has anyone got a link to a good walkthrough for using the (Integration) HTTP Web Service request within Workflow 365?  I understand I need to use the  http://[SITEURL]/_vti_bin/lists.asmx) web service and method GetAttachmentCollection.  This is to be able to add direct links to attachments that were uploaded to the original form with the Approval email.  The solution for the op-premises version is How To: Get Attachment URLs from a list item | ProjectPoint but not having done this before I'm struggling a little to work out what to put in which fields (and the specific syntax - always a killer) to get the resulting list of items. Cheers.
