Microsoft has announced the retirement of the SharePoint SendEmail API on October 31, 2025 which is used for internal SharePoint emails. This significant change will directly impact Nintex Workflow for Office 365 customers who utilize the following actions: Send an Email (when Internal Email is selected) Assign a Task (when Lazy Approval is not selected) Start a Task Process (when Lazy Approval is not selected) To mitigate the potential disruption caused by this retirement, we strongly recommend migrating your affected workflows to Nintex Automation Cloud before October 31, 2025. If you intend to keep your workflows within Office 365, you will need to update the affected actions to use external email. Mitigation Steps: Send an Email: Select ‘External Email’ under email service option. Task Actions: Select the ‘Allow LazyApproval’ option. Additional Reminder Please note that Nintex Workflow for Office 365 will reach its end of support in December 2025 and will cease to function entirely

Have you ever wanted to make the options displayed in a radio button control (single choice control) dynamic? For example, we have a menu that changes daily across all three meal types (breakfast, lunch and dinner). Here’s an example shown in a SharePoint list for today’s menu: In the past, if you wanted to present these dynamically, you’d have to create 3 choice controls (one each for breakfast, lunch and dinner) and hide the ones that weren’t needed via a rule. Then when the user has made their selection, you also have to know to retrieve the value from the meal type that was selected. All off this is pretty straightforward but at Nintex, we’re not satisfied with straightfoward - we want it to be fast and easy. So you might have seen @SimonMuntz’s recent post on using data source variables with the single choice control. That’ s exactly what you’d use for this scenario. First, you have to set up your data source variable. Here’s the help topic on doing this if you need some assistanc

I was recently approached by a customer asking if there was a way to add an image into the email body of an NWC email. While the rich text controls let you do a certain amount of formatting (like lists and bullet points, or heading fonts), sometimes you just want to have more control over what goes into the email body. The solution here does require a little bit of light HTML, but it's honestly so simple, you can definitely get it set up even without any HTML or programming experience. The trick is, to set a text variable with the HTML tag for an image. Here's the code I used in my sample: <img src="https://gallery.nintex.com/assets/images/Community_Logo.png"/> You are going to need to find a place to host the image. If it's a company logo, you might not have to look any further than your own company's website. Just be sure to copy the image URL. The action you're going to need to use is "Set a Variable Value". You'll then copy and paste the HTML code above, and update the URL with the

The choice Single control now has an Insert tab for the choice options in the control’s configuration. This allows for a Data Source Variable to be selected. Inserting a flattened collection from a data source into this field gives you a dynamically generated list of choices. An array of objects can also be selected. When an object is select, two new fields will appear in the control’s configuration. The fields are “Option label” and “Option value”. Option label will display the text for the choices. Option value is the value that can be used elsewhere in the form or passed to the workflow. For example, the option label may show a list of states of the United States of America. When the user selects California the Option value can store the value Sacramento which is the capital city. This value is obtained from the Data Source Variable.

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, companies are increasingly adopting application development to remove friction from their critical business processes. With a large pipeline of applications designed to drive competitive differentiation, application development teams must tackle these projects quickly and effectively. However, these organizations face a dilemma from an application development approach perspective: Build custom-coded solutions and navigate long development cycles; or Settle for low-code solutions that fail to fully meet their needs for automating complex business processes. The result? A high percentage of projects fail to deliver the intended value because they lack the capability to handle intricate use cases. Equally damaging is the heavy reliance on professional coders or complex tooling, which often limits the number of projects that can be delivered—further exacerbated by project overruns that slow progress even more. With the launch of Nintex Apps, we are
