Got a call from a user that there were a bunch of issues with some workflows. Turns out that the access token used in one of the connections in the workflow had expired and needed to re-authenticate. OK --- Easy fix to re-authenticate and get the workflows to start working again.

 

BUT

Having workflows fail for this reason is NOT acceptable. I’m looking for a solution to be proactively notified BEFORE a workflow failure happens that a connection has an expired token. This way I can assume 100% uptime in my workflow by renewing the access token BEFORE there is a workflow failure.

The connections screen in NWC only shows the date the connection was created. No where is the expiration date documented. 

So how is a Nintex admin to know when these things expire?

Currently the only solution is to wait for a failure (and some angry customers) and then reactively address it by re-authenticating.

This seems like a huge design flaw in this product that should be addressed by the dev team.

@jeffoliver1000 Thank you for your input and feedback.  We do have this enhancement in our backlog.  Your vote in Nintex ideas would help prioritize this.


10 month later and we still run into that issue.,

I can only repeat “This seems like a huge design flaw in this product that should be addressed”

@Sasan : Please push this to a higher priority
