Hi @SimonMuntz 

this would only partially achive my desired outcome since this would always add the same number of zeros without consideration of the length of the ID.

ID 12     → TD_0012
ID 123   → TD_00123
ID 1234 → TD_001234

Hi @NiklasG,

The Nintex Gallery has a connector for padding a string.

Hi @SimonMuntz,

how do I add this to my workflows?
The online documention doesn’t explain this.

Hi @NiklasG,

Please see the Xtensions help files.

They are added from the Automate > Xtensions tab in Nintex Automation Cloud.
The actions will then appear in the Action toolbox.

Hi @SimonMuntz 

I created the Xtension according to your guide, but I get a 404 when using the action inside my workflow. What am I missing?

Hi @NiklasG,

It's strange that you are getting that error.
Here is a workflow using existing actions that will pad left any number to 5 digits using zeros.
You can add this to your workflow or create a component workflow that you call to do the padding.
