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

By the looks of it, previous issues were fixed through a private message from Nintex, so I’m reaching out for further help on this matter.

In this month’s user spotlight blog, we’re talking to Mark du Toit , a Solutions Engineer here at Nintex. What is your current role and some career background? Solution Engineer, 3yrs, and I have played various roles within the Enterprise Content Management and Business Process Management fields, including (but not limited to), Principal Consultant, Solution Designer, Solution Engineer, Domain Architect, etc. Which Nintex Product are you most passionate about and why?

The Nintex Workflow workflow designer makes it easy to create workflows. Actions can be dragged and dropped from the toolbox, which also has a search bar for finding the action you need. Commonly used actions have been put at our fingertips to make things easier. Click the plus icon in the designer, and a context menu appears with five frequently used actions, such as Send an email and Set a variable value. If our favorite action does not appear, there is also a search bar to help find it. Click the action to add it to the workflow.

Use case Nintex Workflow has SharePoint start events for new and updated items, but workflows must be manually triggered in some scenarios. A Nintex Workflow can be created that accepts an item ID so it knows which item to operate on, but wouldn’t it be much easier to pass data and start a workflow on an item with just one click? Solution We begin by creating a new workflow with a form start event in Nintex Workflow. To pass the ID of the SharePoint item to the start form, we take advantage of the getQueryStringParameter function. We create a form variable and add a getQueryStringParameter function with a text parameter of “ID” getQueryStringParameter("ID") Alternatively, we can display the item ID on the form by setting the function as a default parameter for a form control. SharePoint To add the link to SharePoint, the modern view must be used. We add a single line of text column to the list. From the column dropdown, we select Column settings > Format this column. A panel opens to t

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
