IntroductionThis blog highlights AI's transformative impact on RPA, showcasing how integrating AI technologies enhances the capabilities and effectiveness of traditional RPA systems. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has revolutionized business processes by automating repetitive, rule-based tasks, improving efficiency, and reducing costs. However, traditional RPA is limited by its reliance on structured inputs and predefined logic. Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration is transforming RPA into a more powerful, adaptive, and intelligent tool, heralding a new generation of automation capabilities. The evolution from traditional RPA to AI-enhanced RPATraditionally, RPA focused on automating straightforward, mundane tasks like data entry, invoice processing, and simple transactional processes. These bots mimic human ac

In today’s fast-paced business environment, the ability to streamline operations and enhance efficiency is more crucial than ever. At Nintex, we understand the importance of continuous innovation to empower our users with the best tools for optimizing their business processes. We are thrilled to announce a game-changing feature that seamlessly bridges the gap between traditional process mapping and modern process automation: The ability to import Microsoft Visio files and create BPMN process models directly within Nintex.   Elevating Process Mapping to New Heights Microsoft Visio has long been a staple for professionals across various industries to diagram complex processes and systems. However, transforming these static diagrams into consistent, managed, documentation can often be challenging and time-consuming. Recognizing this gap, our team at Nintex embarked on a mission to create a bridge between Visio’s process diagrams and Nintex’s robust process manage

Built-in data storage capabilities streamline building workflows in Nintex Automation Cloud We are thrilled to announce the beta release of Nintex Automation Cloud Tables, providing a centralized, scalable way to store, manage, and connect process-related data across business-critical applications. Capabilities covered in this blog will be added to the product over the approximately two-month-long beta release period.Workflow automations frequently rely on data from multiple sources, such as customers, employees, or internal storage systems like SharePoint, to successfully execute. Managing data stored in multiple locations can be fragmented, onerous, and error-prone for application developers building custom business applications, who want all aspects of their apps centrally accessible and managed.

As the Product team continues its acceleration on updates to Nintex Workflow Cloud, the magnitude of these releases has been amplified. This post may seem like an aftershock to the announcement last month around the Advanced Preview of Complex Object support in Nintex Xtensions, but don't fault me on the timing. I cant stress enough how excited I am about this new groundbreaking feature! Ok, you're probably wondering what's with all the puns, and if you weren't before, now it's probably shaking out. Complex Object support has been on the minds of most users building Xtensions since we released the Nintex Xtensions framework several years ago. With this 'earth shaking' release, and my love for puns, what better way to celebrate than building an Xtension with Seismic (API for reference). If you are just here f

However, I have been with Nintex for over 12 years in total. I joined in 2012 as a Technical Evangelist covering the APAC and EMEA region.

My career journey has been quite diverse - I spent several years in the Australian Army's Special Forces before transitioning into IT roles across healthcare, utilities, construction, and then into the software industry with Nintex. Which Nintex Product are

K2 integrates with Microsoft Exchange Online using Microsoft’s APIs. As Microsoft makes changes, we will update our integrations to ensure your solutions continue to function properly.Microsoft has announced the retirement of the ApplicationImpersonation Role Based Access Control (RBAC) role in Exchange Online. Beginning in May 2024, new customers can no longer use this role, and in February 2025, the role and feature set will be removed from Exchange Online.Edited 19 April 2024: K2 does not automatically add this role on configuration, so you may not be impacted by Microsoft’s change. This retirement will impact on-premises customers if the ApplicationImpersonation role was added to the account used to log in to EWS. If so, apply the fix pack listed below and then remove the Appl

Companies constantly seek ways to enhance efficiency and productivity in today's fast-paced business environment. One area that has seen significant innovation is document creation, eSignature capture, and tracking the signing process within a system. This modern approach saves time and resources and improves accuracy and compliance. Let's delve into how companies embrace these technologies to streamline their operations. Efficient Document CreationGone are manual document creation days involving extensive back-and-forth emails, revisions, and delays. Nintex DocGen for Salesforce offers a modern interface within Salesforce, allowing power users to query, configure, and deploy solutions, ultimately enabling end users to generate professional-looking documents quickly. Features such as point-and-click data querying, drag-and-drop tagging, and version control allow teams to work seamlessly together regardless of physical location.Furthermore, integration w

Did you know that Drawloop DocGen can store all of your legal and non-legal content in it’s app and push the content into your templates at runtime with hide-display rules applied? This could generate a single line or several pages of text completely bulleted and indented to your specifications. The capability has been available for while now, but few customers know about it. This capability provides Drawloop users the ability to centralize content (clauses) so that they can be managed within the Drawloop app instead of templates themselves. Why would anyone do this? So admins don’t need to manage several template files that contain the same clause whenever the clause itself changes. Instead, a change can be made to a single clause in the Drawloop app and then it instantaneously becomes live across all templates that leverage the clause. Did I mention you can apply filters to each clause? Often, Drawloop users will create many file versions of one use case. An

Nintex is thrilled to announce the general availability of FedRAMP®-authorized Nintex Automation Cloud for Government!

Although they’ve moved away from paper forms, their processes still rely on PDF forms, manual routing through email, and spreadsheets.

Hello everyone!I am writing today about a use case that has come up a few times recently and how Nintex can help solve it.At a high level, the use case involves a pricing estimation calculator and the front end, resulting in a proposal or estimate document created and sent to a customer. The specific scenarios I've been working with have involved field service workers; however, this is not limited to that audience.Without Nintex, this would involve a lot of pen and paper, quick napkin math, and complex Excel sheets. Alternatively, the companies I've been working with involve their estimation experts, and their turnaround time is much longer than their customers are willing to wait. With Nintex Automation Cloud, any field service worker can fill out some simple fields and get a quick estimate from the customer while they are still on site.As I mentioned, the ideas presented here can also be applied in other types of use cases. Nintex Automation Cloud allow

One of the most requested capabilities for Nintex Workflow Cloud has been the ability to assign a single task to multiple individuals, so a task can be completed by one of many or by collaborative decision-making. We will be making a number of updates to Task capabilities in Nintex Workflow Cloud over the coming months, starting with a new action in the workflow designer: Assign a task to multiple users.To see it in action, check out Chris Ellis' (Director of PreSales) awesome video. The action:With Assign a task to multiple users, you will be able to assign a task to multiple assignees and set the Completion rules.You still be able to look up assignees from your User Directory or

A Common use case for an automated process containing a document being generated is needing a proofreading step where a user can verify the dynamic data going into the document before delivery. Pause to Edit and Forms are just two great examples & features to accomplish this. Let's talk about using forms first. I typically always bring up this path first on any discussion I have. The Reason? Most of the time this ‘proofreading’ step doesn’t need to give the user access to the entire document. Typically they are just checking the dynamic text coming in or maybe just changing a single paragraph. In this case a form is much faster for the end user.  A user can simply check the data here and make any adjustments instead of downloading the entire document. The other plus here is that you can map the data back to a
