I have a Nintex form in O365 that uses a lot of fields so not all of the fields are connected to an associated SharePoint column in the SharePoint list. The owner of the site wants to be able to search the site for a particular value and if the value is contained anywhere within the nintex form it is displayed within the search results. Can this be done without mapping every field in the Nintex form to an associate column in the list.

I've got the attached process I'm trying to solve. But what I can't figure out is if there's a tie in the votes, how can I notify the task to the tie breaker so they can cast their vote?  Once they cast their vote, the workflow will process it with the final approval/rejection, ending the workflow.  I thought about running parallel actions, but I'm not sure what kind of conditions I need to set to get it working?

list has some columns if  i create new item in the list with same data it should compare and delete duplicate data and create in another list. this is the possible with nintex workflow. i tried with quering the list items and compare with workflow variable and check with condition but working.

Does anyone know how you can implement the following feature in a Nintex form with SharePoint online 2013? I am looking for a more user friendly way of using a multiple select. Any help will be greatly appreciated.‌

I have a task process that is assigned to a group of users. What i'm looking to capture is the date the participant selects on the form. Is there a way of capturing that?

Hi,I’m using Nintex workflow in SharePoint Online, where I’m creating a task and sending email actionable. Here I would like to know following two things:Can I replace top default NINTEX logo with my custom logo? If yes, then where can I do it.

Working with RegEx Validation on an SSN field in Forms, I am using the following expression ^d{3}-?d{2}-?d{4}$     However, it only seems to except an empty field - and calls any other entry invalid.  This is a generally accepted expression referenced in multiple places and I tested it in RegEx validators.  The underlying field is Single Line of Text   What Am I doing wrong?   

I have created a few workflows using Nintex, but now I have creadted a new one which is running fine until it gets to the point where the workflow needs to Send an Email. I have configured my email within the workflow and published. Ran a test, but the Send an Email does not happen.The workflow goes straight to the next step which is log to History and then completes the Workflow Any Suggestions? I have Start a Task Process, and under the Approved I then have Send an Email.Kind regards Claire Allen

I currently have a task that is created, there is a person or group field that accepts multiple names. When a single user is typed into the field it works correctly, however when I try to assign it to multiple people it does not send out the notification.

How can I use UPDATE ITEM, to take the ID from a row, and add it into another column called MyID, which is then used by another calculated column to format this into an autogenerated number.  I am using SharePoint 2013 and Nintex workflow 2013. I have attached a picture of the workflow with throws an error. Please help.

Really looking for some agreement from the masses here. I have a form, and was trying to validate that when a choice field is empty/Null, then the control is invalid. So I set the formula to isNullorEmpty({self}). Seems pretty basic, right? But no, this didn't work... So then i tried {self}==""... This didn't work either. Then I tried {self}=="Please select a value...", which is the default text in the choice field when nothing selected. This still didn't work. So, to test what the value in an empty choice field actually is, I placed a calculation field on the form and made it equal to the value of that choice field. To my disbeleif, it has another value... "**SelectValue**". I went back to my validation formula, and set it to {self}=="**SelectValue**" and this worked!!!! Some things about Nintex are just absolutely annoying, and illogical. This is just another one. But I hope that someone else finds this helpful.

Hi community, I just found out that there is no userProfileLookup runtime function within NINTEX Forms for o365‌.So what to do now? Is there any workaround? BTW: if you also think that this is awful, please vote to get this functionality SOON (request is already two years old, I cannot believe it): userprofilelookup Runtime Function – Customer Feedback for Nintex  Cheersmai-kel

Is it possible to create a rule on a Nintex Form to only display a section if the user is a member of a particular SharePoint group? I know how to do it for individual names based on Current User, but would like to do it via group membership.

I am trying to use the Nintex Form Replace function to get the email out of a people field Replace(fieldName, "i:0#.f|membership|","") When I apply it to this (i:0#.f|membership|user@email.com) I get this (||user@email.com). So obviously it is using regex.  However if I add the escape backslashes in front of the two pipes, it still doenst work. Anyone have this working or know how to make it work?

I want to create an approval workflow for promotional activities.My company has 4 product categories and 4 category managers, each of them is responsible for one product category. If an employee requests a promotion, the category manager(s) have to approve the promotion if their/ his product category is concerned. I have already created an additional list which lists the category product and the responsible category manager. You can see the form in the picture to understand the approval request. There are 4 options:1 product category - approval of 1 category manager is needed2 product categories - approval of 2 category managers is needed3 product categories - approval of 3 category managers is needed4 product categories - approval of 4 category managers is needed If only one category is chosen, the workflow will not be a problem. I would have used a simple "set a condition", which than looks up the category manager's email to send the approval request. But I do not know how to create

I've seen plenty of articles regarding Workflow History purges for SP on Prem but does anyone have any advice for purging workflow history on SharePoint online?  I have over 7 million records I want to purge, and setting an information policy did not seem to do anything.

In Nintex on-prem, there was a variable type of List Item ID. Nintex for O365 doesn`t have this type of variable. What should be used instead - number - integer? I am querying a list and getting IDs of items and storing them in a collection but I need a variable to store the individual IDs as well to do a For each loop.

Trying to create a list view to filter on workflow internal status (Started, Suspended, Terminated, etc.) but workflow name, Travel Authorization Request, doesn't appear in Filter options drop-down (img below).  Workflow name is available in Columns, to add to list view, and I have added that, but that column shows the status as set by workflow actions (e.g.: "Pending Supervisor Approval", "Approved", etc.).  Tried 'Group By' but it doesn't show the workflow internal status.   Am I missing something?  Any direction would be greatly appreciated. 

I am new to Nintex. I've added a Nintex workflow to a document library on Office 365. The library displays a column with the name of the workflow, but it's empty. I was under the impression that the workflow status should automatically display in this column, similar to a regula SharePoint workflow. Is there a setting I am missing?Thanks in advance! Kasia. 

We were sent a very handy document from the Adobe Sign guys around using text tags to direct users to specific areas of a document to enter tags, rather than have them drag on a placeholder themselves when signing or just have the signature panel appear randomly at the bottom of the document to sign. Check out the attached document, happy signing.
