New Workflow features
User Management APIs: We are introducing new public APIs for managing users and groups within your tenant. With these APIs, users and groups can be retrieved, created, updated, and deleted. For more information on the available endpoints, see our Developer help.
Data sources:
SharePoint Online: Query user profile and Get members of a SharePoint group operations are now available. For more information, see the SharePoint Online help topic.
Azure Active Directory: Get manager details and Get members of an Azure Active Directory group operations are now available. For more information, see the Azure Active Directory help topic.
New Forms features
People control: The People control is now supported in Nintex Mobile version 10 and above. For more information, see the People control help topic.
Convert Object to String: The convertToString function in the Form Variables panel now supports converting an Object, in addition to other data types, to a String. For more information, see the convertToString help topic.
Ok we tested data sources and here are our findings:
- Data sources for Sharepoint
- Query user profile: not yet tested
- Get members of a sharepoint group: Not all groups show unless available on site level permissions. We have groups that are created for purposes of automation with users but we don’t necessarily put the groups on the site level, only the object (list or library of list item/file) as needed.
- Cannot manually enter group name while configuring data source.
- Cannot manually enter group name or pass a variable to condition when creating external data source on start event form.
Results: Lacking functionality for SharePoint groups that exist but not available to select.
- Data Sources for Azure Active Directory
- Get manager details: not yet tested
- Get members of an azure active directory group: not all AD groups.
- Cannot manually enter group name while configuring data source.
- Cannot manually enter group name or pass a variable to condition when creating external data source on start event form.
Results: Lacking functionality for AD groups that exists but are not available to select.
