In this blog I am going to go through the recently released manual delegation feature for Nintex Workflow Cloud.  Please also refer to our how to guide Nintex-Workflow-Cloud-Task-Manual-Delegation-feature  Manual DelegationWith a recent update in Nintex Workflow Cloud, we now have the ability for a user that is assigned a task to delegate that task to another user/s.  This only works for authenticated forms and it uses the assign a task to multiple users action.   In the form settings make sure to have Nintex Mobile and My Nintex checked as the delegation will happen in My Nintex. 

A customer recently reached out wondering how we could get the manager and manager email from Okta so that it could be used to assign tasks in a Nintex Automation Cloud workflow. We do have a few Okta actions out of the box, but none of them would allow us to retrieve the data we needed.In order to be able to pull back the user profile data a custom Xtension would have to be created to call the Okta users API.  The new Xtension along with instructions for it's setup and configuration can be found at the following link:  Nintex Gallery - Okta User Profile SearchOnce you have the Xtension installed and connected it will show up in the left-hand navigation along the other connectors. Now that we have th

To accommodate rapid Nintex customer growth, we are scaling out our data centers around the world to ensure maximum performance. Earlier this year, we launched new data centers in Germany and Australia, and are now expanding to add additional North American data centers in the U.S. This expansion gives Nintex more options to load balance within regions or across regions to accommodate always-changing customer demand. The small number of customers who will need to take action as part of this data center expansion will be notified separately and individually during the month of December 2022.

The final conversion of legacy variations is approaching. On December 1st, 2022, we will start converting all remaining legacy variations to shared activity variations. Prior to this date, you will still be able to convert your variations manually. See our previous post about shared activity variations here.There are several great improvements with the new shared activity functionality, however there are a few changes that you need to be aware of. What happens when a variation is converted? The Standard process will become a 'normal' variation - this means that normal users will be able to view it like any other published process. The version will increase by 0.1. For example, a process with version 5.0 will be 5.1 after conversion

Hi, Everyone,As you know, we recently released our latest versions of RPA Central and Bot. The biggest update includes using OAuth when creating email connections to Gmail and Microsoft Exchange. As you may be aware, both Google and Microsoft have either turned off all Basic auth or are going to by the end of the year.Email connections that use Basic auth today will stop functioning soon. Google allows you to use an App password and I believe Microsoft does in some cases as well, but they both want everyone to use OAuth as it is more secure.This also means that older versions of Bot, basically any version before 17.10.x, will not be updated to allow OAuth for these email connections. If you need this level of functionality, you’ll have to upgrade to the latest version of Bot that requires RPA Central as well. Please reach out to your Nintex Salesperson for details on how to do this.Thanks,Mike

Unfortunately, currently, there is no Nintex out of the box way to make the Form download locally on MS Edge besides using the following hack, that one of our users brought to us. Create a label on your form and add the following link as a hyperlink:: https://company.sharepoint.com/siteName/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=  Replace “company” with your own company name and “siteName” with the site path. For example https://gamero365.sharepoint.com/myGames/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl= The source URL should be the direct link to the attachment. The full URL will look this:

Do you find that address information provided by your participants are sub-optimal and causes downstream workflow issues?  Do you find yourself adding multiple fields to capture a single address? The latest Address control on Nintex Workflow Cloud Forms would be able to solve these problems. Address control would make it easier to get accurate addresses. The form filler would only have to fill in one address field thus making the form filling experience quicker. Let’s look at the new Address Control in action! On a form with an Address Control, the Form filler can start typing in the address which then provides them with suggestions matching their data entry. The can then select the address that matches their search.  The Address control setting can be found in the Control toolbox on
