Nintex Automation Cloud

I have a workflow that starts with a Nintex Form. The form allows for the uploading/attaching of supporting documents. I am successfully writing the form data into a list library in SharePoint Online, but cannot seem to copy the attachments to a document library. I get this error: Received an error response from the connector: BadRequest: [SP.GNR.ListItemsNotFound] Unable to find matching list items for the list 'ProclamationRequestAttachments'. (Correlation Id: 1b7d84c4-4519-4253-b9df-c8ae9389380f) The document library does exist, permissions are correct also. I don’t think it is a SPO issue, but maybe I’m not capturing the attachments correctly. Below is the workflow: The run if true was just to keep that part of the workflow from executing if there were no document attachments on the form. I am able to attach the documents to the “Send Notification to CSO” action, so they are attachments in the notification email. Just can’t seem to copy them to SPO. I am certain I’m missing somethi

I have a responsive form from which I am generating a PDF from a template. That’s working fine but because the PDF that is generated is both internal and customer facing, I’d like to be able to display a multi-choice checkbox field as those checkboxes (along with the options selected) instead of returning the submitted information in a string. Is this possible? Or if I’m overthinking and there’s a better way to do this, I’m all ears. I did find the same question here but the images aren’t available & I’m struggling to wrap my head around it. As a part 2 to this question, I’m finding that anytime I make a change to the template, I’m having to retag every single field and not just the one that changed. Is this expected behavior?

I’m migrating workflows to the Automation Cloud, and no matter if I build the table in HTML or the WYSIWIG editor, Nintex constantly messes with the formatting. It will move whole rows to the top of the table. The screen shot below is how the table in the email should look. But if I have to go back into the workflow to make an edit for any reason - not even to the Send Email action this happens: The divider rows get converted to header rows - even if I toggle that setting off or call it out as <td> instead of <th> - and then get moved to the top. This defeats their purpose, which is to break up and organize the data. It makes quick edits painstaking. I don’t need a “smart” editor that actually gets it wrong every time it tries to override my actions. If someone from Nintex could PLEASE tell me how to get around this or give us the option to shut it off, I’d be most appreciative. I build for 10+ teams and own waaay too many workflows for troubleshooting to be this time-consuming. We mov

I have a start d/t and an end d/t fields on my NWC form. I would like to show a message to the user if their end date is = or < the start time. “is not” , “not equal”, or “equal” conditions are not available when comparing d/t fields in this version for forms. That seems odd to me Nintex wouldn’t make those options available. The only way I can think of is to convert the d/t fields to strings in a variable. There are many more conditions available when comparing text strings. My VAR’s are setup the same Just so I can see if the VAR’s are correctly populated, I’m displaying the values in the fields immediately below the d/t fields, for demo. But it’s not converting the strings in the same format. If they are not in the same format, I can’t compare them in rules. Both of the fields are configured the exact same way in the Form and in Sharepoint

I have a repeating section in start form. In a Task Form, I want to display the row of data from the start form repeating section. And add an editable field for each row to get a status for each row. How can I do that? I understand that I can do a loop for each and get item from collection, but how can I have the data in my task form?

I am making good use of Nintex Data Tables now. It is especially good for getting a quick response in your workflow form. Sometimes calls to our on-prem SQL database take several seconds. But I ran into a problem whenever I moved my data from Test into Production. While there is a nice “Import” feature to Tables, there is no Export. So I built one, and I’ll display that here below. The “Import” process takes a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file, so I will generate that using a workflow in my Test environment. First, create a workflow and set the Start Event as a Nintex Component workflow. Insert the following actions that we will configure: Query a table Create a text string Loop for each (inside your loop) Create a text string Send an email (or substitute some other method of obtaining your output Configuring these actions: For “Query a table” you simply select your Table and select all the columns you want. If you want all the rows, then don’t add any Conditions. Complete the other se

We are trying to replicate the N365 process of writing task info to a “task list”. It’s nice that NAC stores tasks, but we have audited processes and need our task data stored locally on our site (like the previous versions of Nintex did it). in a SharePoint list, or task list. We are using the “Get task” action, but are facing some issues trying to grab the relevant task form URL because it is way more than 255 characters.

Is there a way to either generate a csv file in Nintex Workflow or convert an excel file or anything that can be done. I would like ot use Nintex to generate and email a csv file on a schedule.

I thought this would be a simple thing, but apparently it’s not. I have a Scheduled start workflow that is supposed to run daily to read a SharePoint list and find any items that contain a date six weeks (42 days) in the future. The workflow ran today and reported no results even though I know there is one item in the list that should have been found. The workflow uses an Add time to date function to calculate the future date: using the built-in Current date from the instance, it adds 42 days and provides a variable as a result (date format, not ISO 8601 text string). Then the workflow queries the list, using the conditions that the specific date column has value and matches the date variable. When I run this, it finds no results even though, as I said, there is one item in the list that meets the conditions. I have a feeling this has something to do with the format of the Nintex date (which is in YYYY-MM-DD format and includes the time) and the SharePoint date, which is M/D/YYYY and d

I am using a Label form control, which has recently updated. The old version had a field for both the link text and the link URL. However, the current version only has the URL, and when I use a variable for the URL, it doesn’t display correctly- it shows the URL and not the text I had highlighted to add the URL. I even tried using the source code version to put things in, but that gave me the same result. Any ideas?

Hello, I’m trying to print an HTML table using a loop for each but I’m facing issue it’s only print the last item in the table How I can solve it? please check the screenshoots: Output:

Hi, There are a couple of threads of this subject, but they more relate to SharePoint. In my case I have an NWC Start form, where I have a repeating Section control. When I create a Task form, I need to display the rows of data from Repeating Section, and also make it editable. I was wondering whether there are any solutions or workarounds for this situation.

In a Nintex Automation Cloud Workflow, I am trying to get a token with a “Call a web service”-action with this endpoint: https://login.microsoftonline.com/myTenantId/oauth2/v2.0/token Request Type is HTTP Post Request Headers are: Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded Request content: grant_type=client_credentialsclient_id=myAppIdclient_secret=myAppsecretscope:https://myTenant.sharepoint.com/.default I get this Response: {"error":"unsupported_grant_type","error_description":"AADSTS70003: The app requested an unsupported grant type My App-Registration on Azure has Sites.Selected Permissions: And the permission has been granted to a specific Site by Grant-PnPAzureADAppSitePermission This App has a valid Client-Secret. Public Clientflows are allowed. Why do I get “unsupported grant type”? What am I missing here? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

When a Nintex Automation Cloud Form is completed; the url is sent to the user. If there a way to write the url sent in the e-mail to SharePoint Online for the user to click on from SharePoint Online?

My workflow requires a start form to transfer the data to a SharePoint list when it is completed. I have configured my SharePoint connection, and I can retrieve the list and add the fields to be configured. I have inserted the corresponding start form variables in the update items configuration; however, I cannot configure the conditions action. How do I configure the conditions? Do I need a separate condition for each field to be updated?

I need to filter the options of a child dropdown based on the selected value of a parent dropdown. In the backend, I have data tables that establish a relationship between the parent and child tables. Could you let me know if it is feasible to implement cascading dropdowns in a Nintex Workflow Cloud task form? If so, could you guide me on how to achieve this?

I have 5 page form with multuple questions and 3 file upload sections. If i run the form without uploading a file it’s fine. If i upload a file into any of the 3 areas it uploads the file but the form will nto submit.

Hello, How can I make a workflow that is started as a Nintex Component Workflow appear in Workflow Tracking? I want to see the responses from an "Assign Task" in the form that is initiated as a Nintex Component Workflow. I already collect the responses in the database, but sometimes they ask me to download the form.

We have recently gone live with Nintex Automation Cloud, and have a number of workflows running for a series of different business processes. Since we went live, we have been inundated with calls from our business teams, complaining that the My Tasks view in NAC, does not show any information that relates to the form data being processed, like a person’s name or the form ID, for example. Is there any means of customising the columns this view shows?

Hi Team, I am developing workflows in NWC and we have many actions related creating list item, update item and query list etc. Each time Site URL is hardcoded under SharePoint Site URL. Is there a way we can save the URL in a variable and refer that variable wherever is needed. Or is there a way to get site URL from context. Please suggest the best practice. Thanks!

How I can call the values in repeating section in the initial form, when I try to insert the values from start event form it is appearing as below:

Good day How do you get NWC to check on the status of a Sharepoint Online column from a list every day? Based on the value of this column, it needs to continue to check the status of this column until it reaches a certain state. Example: Column = CompletionDate I need to create a workflow that checks the value of Todays Date once a day. If the value of today's date equals the value of “CompletionDate” then the workflow stops. But until the value Today's date is equal to “CompletionDate” the workflow continues to run every day at a specified time. Additional steps I want to include is if the number of days left until CompletionDate is <5<0 then an e-mail will be sent. This part I know how to do. I have tried using a Scheduled Start as Start Event but i want to use the columns in a Sharepoint List. With Scheduled Start I don't know how to use columns from a list. Thanks

I managed to loop through and extract the output code for each attachment from a start event form file upload control and end with just the file name. I which this was available through the collection of information storing the attachments, similar to SPO list item attachment collection. Anyways, now how do I build an expression on the branch by condition action to check for special characters? I want to kick it back to the user if any exist to try again. So I will be setting a boolean variable to YES if special characters exist is the idea.

Hello Everyone, Has anyone created a workflow that starts by flagging an email, sending it to Planner with details, and notifying the engineer? We have had a request like this and are not sure if it is possible. I have attached a flow chart for reference. if anyone can help please. Thank you :)

Where is Nintex on the roadmap for editable repeating sections on tasks?!?!?! Near or far future? One of our high complex processes that are due to migrate I just started working on and it’s for invoicing. They have a “cost breakdown” component. I would LOVE to move the majority of all tasks to NAC and only track changes in SPO list. However, if repeating sections cannot be passed for them to “edit” several layers of versions to their invoices (via a form) then I will have to keep pointing them back to the Nintex SharePoint form for “editing” to the invoice and decide how to leverage tasks for reminders etc. It’s almost a waste of time sending an task out, at that point I should just send an email with “edit” link back to the item for editing and have something on their SPO Nintex form they can push to send it back through the process on a start trigger. Let me know, thanks!
