Hi, I am using Nintex form / Nintex workflow on sharepoint on-line. I set the permission to the userbase on the list directly (breaking the inheritance). When a user submits the form it does not move through the flow. I believe it gets stuck at the Nixtex history list action.  When I gave the same permission to the site the flow worked as expected. I do not ant to give the users edit access to the site as they will be able to modify webpages. I read somewhere that I need to grant contribute access to the Nintex History List. Can someone provide guidance on this? Thank you!

Nintex O365 Responsive forms...I have a repeating section on a form with 2 lookup fields in it. The XML generated displays the ID if the selected values, not the title.  See the Site collection value of 53 and the SelectSites values of 55, 53, 60, 66, 67. What can I do to get the value of the lookup list title column and not the ID. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><RepeaterData><Version /><Items><Item><SelectSiteCollection type="System.String">53</SelectSiteCollection><SelectSites type="System.String">55;#;#53;#;#60;#;#66;#;#67;#</SelectSites><Select_x0020_Permission_x0020_Level type="System.String"> Contribute (Add/Edit/Delete Content)</Select_x0020_Permission_x0020_Level><SpecialSharePointAccess type="System.String"></SpecialSharePointAccess></Item><Item><SelectSiteCollection type="System.String">3</SelectSiteCollection><SelectSites type="System.String">14;#;#18;#</Sel

Hello there,I am having trouble with the following scenario in Nintex Workflow:I have a configuration list specifying approver groups (SharePoint) per process I have an approval workflow on a doc lib that tries to retrieve the approver group for the matching process of the document from the configuration list and assign in to a variable. I want then to assign a task to that SharePoint group via that variableThe issue i am having is no matter how i configure retrieval of the group from the list item, it always fails to assign the task due to an invalid value. I tried a variable of type string and User or Group but it always seems to fail to resolve the SP group. In some cases the group appears to be a JSON object in the variable. Any ideas how that can be achieved?

Has anyone had any experience adding a Nintex start form to their Nintex workflow, in Office 365?

The library I am currently working with uses DocSets and I have the abililty to edit the new DocSet form, but I need it for the workflow start form. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm attempting to set the value of the below cascading lookup field based on a choice field in the below form to request approval to travel. I have set-up the below section of the form using cascading lookups to filter the list of cities when a country is selected for both Departure and Destination.   My issues started when I attempted toa) Prevent the selection of identical countries when Flight Type = International    b) Set and disable the Destination country when Flight Type = Domestic. I am unable to filter the Destination country using rules or by calculated values, and I created a new field for the domestic city which is conditionally hidden based on Flight Type however when hiding fields on this form, field layout went a little haywire.  c) I also need to prevent the date of departure being set to prior to the current date, also when add new row is selected It would be useful to set the date to the previous date of departure + 1 however I believe this is achievable using custom

I want to get a user name based on a title.  For example, instead of hard coding our HR Manager's name into a workflow OR having to have a person type in the HR managers name in a form, I would like to set-up the workflow to go to the AD to retrieve the HR Managers name based on their title being hard coded in the workflow.  Is this even possible?

Hello everyone, I've a requirement wherein I need to update a Nintex form(for Office 365) people picker control with a value through Javascript. By going through Nintex Community blogs, I came to know that NF.PeoplePickerApi is not available for Office 365. Is there any other API or a way to update the people picker control.  Note: For the people picker control, the input comes form the Javascript. I don't want to copy/clone the value form a different field in the same form.

Hello,i have a sharepoint list with >500 rows, which were imported from an excel file. If I want to edit on of those imported entries with nintex, then all my dropdown menus on Nintex are empty, even though there are information. While the information are "transfered" to the single text fields/date field only the dropdown is empty. I read here, that is possible to overwrite the information imported fields from the sharepoint to the dropdown menu in nintex by using a javascript. Can someone help me do it? One example: there is one column "Country", which is a dropdown in nintex and can be every possible country. How could i use a javascript to change the value of the dropdown in nintex with the column value on the sharepoint list. Thank you very much in advance. EDIT: all dropdown menu in Nintex is connected to another list on sharepoint

Hi, I have a form which user need to enter time several times and they want to separate date from time. Once at the top of section they ask for date then they ask for Arrival time, Break time, Lunch time, End time and etc.We could design this form in 2013 classic form but in O365, all of forms are responsive as users fill them on different smart phone & devices.Is there any built-in solution to just use the time and not "Date/time"? 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.   I've got a responsive form that has an attachment control.  When I attach items to the form, I'm unable to see the information in the XML NFFormData. Printing the results out I get:Form Data = <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><FormVariables><Version /><ProjectCode /><Attachments type="System.String"></Attachments></FormVariables>Although there are 2 items attached. Also it seems strange that only one of my fields is listed (ProjectCode) when the form has about 20 fields.

Hi, is it possible to read the fullpath of a Managed Metadata term in Nintex Online?For example in the image below, can I get Pilotage CEF > Comité Exploitation France > Support?Thanks

Hello Nintex friends,   I have a workflow that routes approvals through multiple levels. When a task is assigned at a step, there will be sometimes as many as fiver or more potential approvers. My task is set up to complete with the first response. My problem is this, when the one user actions the task, it does not close out the other tasks in the task list and when another user looks at their open approvals, the task still shows up there. Is there a way to have the workflow close out the task for the other users when their response is no longer required?    I am running Nintex workflow and Nintex forms in Office 365.    Thanks!   Cody Allison

Hi, How can I disable/Hide delete tab from form's top ribbon in Nintex O365 Responsive?

Hi, new to Nintex, and have time pressures.  Just trying to work out how to auto populate a choice field based on another choice field.    I found the how-to guide that explains how to auto populate a single line of text field but the "set value" option is missing for a destination choice field.https://community.nintex.com/t5/How-To-s/Responsive-Forms-Set-Value-O365/ta-p/86620Somewhere else I read that I'd need JS, but this is only for classic forms only ....  Is this seemingly standard requirement not available for a response form?  Is there a way to convert the a responsive form to classic? 

I am trying to create a form that will autosum a total for a set of fixed columns with amounts. Is this possible to do while the user is entering data in a form?   For example: Account (First column) |  Amount (Second Column) 23-32-32                                     |  100 22-11-44                                     |   300 33-22-11                                     |   600 ----------------------------------------------------- Auto Sum Total on form ----->      1,000 (=amt 1+amt 2 +amt 3)   The list would have a basic structure of columns like: Title Account 1 Amt 1 Account 2 Amt 2 Account 3 Amt 3   I appreciate any ideas or even training videos you could point me to. Thank you.

I was wondering anyone could shed some lights on this. I want to set default to EN ENGLISH on my list lookup (Language) as below but its editable.   JQueryNWF$(document).ready(function() {      //setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH');}); NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function () {  if (DetailLanguage == "Please select a value..."){  setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH');    setTimeout(function(){ setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH')},1000);    setTimeout(function(){ setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH')},2000); }else{  setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH');    setTimeout(function(){ setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH')},1000);    setTimeout(function(){ setLookupField(DetailLanguage, 'EN ENGLISH')},2000);   }});function setLookupField(lookupField, lookupValue) { var lookupID = lookupField.substring(0, lookupField.length-4); var selectField = NWF$("#" + lookupID + " > option");  for (var i = 0; i < selectField.length; i++){  va

I'm pretty new to Nintex Forms! How are you all adding the "help" text that would traditionally be added to the column Description in a SharePoint list? I am building a responsive form that uses a number of panels, each containing a number of controls. I'm using rules to show/hide panels. In order to add help text into the form, I'm adding Rich Text controls. But this results in what appears to be an editable field for the end user - when they mouse over the Rich Text, the control has a white background against the grey of the panel. I've also been using some Rich Text controls without any text to correctly space the help text to sit under the appropriate control in the row above. The attached picture hopefully gives more detail! Thanks in advance for any advice.

I am trying to use a Calculated Value on a form which performs a calculation based on a number of columns on the item.One of those items is a Number column which has the 'Show as percentage (for example, 50%)' property checked. When I attempt to use the Item column or the Named Field it does not recognize it as a numeric value - I stripped down the formula and then added isNumeric(ColumnName) - and many permutations thereof which results in false. There is no option for ConverttoNumber or similar. I have searched the forums and used Google to try to find a solution to no avail. 

Pretty simple need here: I have a "Status" dropdown field with various status selections.  And a "Completed Date" date field. When the User enters a completed date, I would like the Status field to automatically change to "Completed." Nintex 365 isn't the most intuitive and doesn't offer much out of the box functionality, and I am a beginner with JS.  Any help would be appreciated!

Hello friends! I'm using Nintex for O365 and trying to find a way to get around the fact that we no longer have access to triggering workflows from menu items.In one case, I have a calculated column which creates a button that sends people to a Start Form - that's all well and fine.In this other case, I want to create a calculated column button, that, on that ONE click, will trigger the workflow to grab: the logged in user, and the ID that they clicked on. Honestly, I could either trigger a workflow to do this, or just have whatever other wizardry to update ONE status field. Any thoughts on how to do this? I have no idea how to find someone through the "@" in this platform, but, Andrew Glasser originally gave me this article to take a peek at - it's a good'un, but I'm lost on how to apply it to my specific need. https://ericgregorich.com/2018/02/25/jsonactionablebutton/Thanks for any thoughts you have!Rhia
