In a form, how do i display a range of choices in a field based on the choices made in a previous field

So here’s my problem: i have two fields, one named Family and another, subfamiliy. I want the choices available in subfamily to be displayed based on the choices made in the Family field. You can select from 4 differents families, where each one has a specific familiy code. So if you were to select in the family field “AAA - Value 1”, the only choices appearing in the subfamily field would be A01 - Item 01, A02 - Item 02 and A03 - Item 03. Both of those fields are data lookups from two different sharepoint lists. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how i could manage this? Thanks

Branded Task Form Images Intermittently Don't Show

I am running a test migration of an existing O365 workflow to NAC. All the task forms have our company logo at the top, and that logo is stored on the same SharePoint site as the list that the workflow is triggered by. During testing I’ve noticed that sometimes the logo - a 32KB PNG - doesn’t show (for the same account), and instead the missing image icon is shown. This is in Edge, the browser we recommend our users use. I’ve never encountered this issue with O365 workflows, so I’m wondering what the cause is/ how to avoid this, and if perhaps there’s a better place to host images used in NAC forms?

Terminate Workflow Instance

If you are going to use the action “Terminate workflow instance” for the first time, you may have a look to the related help page and will notice that you would need a Nintex Automation Cloud connection. So you open related page to see how to do so. If you don’t expand this topic, you will see this: So you navigate to the settings page to find the Client ID and the Client secret.You will find nothing. So you may start googeling and waste your time. If you expand the topic you will get the information you need:Why is such an important information not presented directly? Anyway:The client ID and client secret required when adding a connection must be generated from the tenant settings page, using the Apps and tokens tab. View an existing app to get the Client ID and Client secret, or create an app to generate the client ID and client secret. So in my case, I added a new App as I didn’t had any.After that you need to click on the three little dots to view the Client ID and Client secret:

Create Exchange Online calendar item with dynamic collection of attendees

I am using Nintex Automation Cloud with SharePoint Online and Exchange Online.The goal is to create a calendar item in the calendar of a user, making it a meeting by inviting a number of additional users as required attendees. But the action does not seem to allow that at the moment.I can directly add a collection variable for the Attendees field. But not matter what that collection contains (e.g. email adresses), it seems to not have the correct format for the action to consume it. Choosing a multi-user field of a SharePoint item as the source for the Attendees field does not work as well.     I can manually add an Attendee by cklicking “Add attendee” - but there seems to be no possibility to make that dynamic. I tried adding an attendee and setting the Email field to the concatenated email adresses of the users (either colon or semicolon), but the action doesn’t parse that and just tries to set that complete string as a single attendee.     I even built the attendee part that Graph

Issue with Retrieving Instances via Nintex Workflow Cloud API

Dear Nintex Support Team,I am using PowerShell to interact with the Nintex Workflow Cloud API, and I am encountering an issue when retrieving instances. My goal is to retrieve more than 100 instances from the API, but currently, I am only getting 100 instances, even though the site contains more.Here is the PowerShell code that I am using to make the request:# Set the Nintex API URL$url = "https://eu.nintex.io/workflows/v2/instances?pageSize=100"# Set the request headers$headers = @{ 'Authorization' = "Bearer $token" 'Accept' = 'application/json' } # Make the GET request using Invoke-RestMethod $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Headers $headers -Method GetI have noticed that the API limits the number of instances returned in a single request to 100.

This may be a newbie question - I have a form where a user uploads an image that I want to display on another form. I have the file upload object in my first form and have set it to allow one image only. I have extracted that file from the collection in my workflow. How do I get the URL out of that file object to use it in the second form?

Prevent New Form Submission

I am creating a form in NAC and would like to prevent someone from resubmitting a form one after another. I understand that you can query Workflow Instances of a form that has already been submitted using “Get a workflow’s instances” data source. However, how do we query the USER that submitted these instances?I am inserting this information to a database on a workflow submission, but in the time it takes to do that while the 1st submission is still processing, a user can submit a 2nd form while the 1st submission is still waiting to be added to the database.

File is locked for shared use by user

While trying to update an SharePoint online document from Nintex Workflow Cloud I'm getting the below error. Is it possible to catch the error and notify the admin (maybe by email) on this error or alternatively if the workflow could be updated to support co-authoring on the SharePoint online document that would be good too. Please help, any advice or alternatives would be appreciated. Thanks

Microsoft Exchange Online - Send to Multiple Users @ the same time

How in the world do you send one email to a group of users without looping for Microsoft Exchance Online connector? The option is to add fixed individuals if multiple one at a time. The fields for TO, CC and BCC does not recognize a collection of users so now we have to worry about looping through 1K + users?  Am I missing something? How do I send one (1) email to 1,000 users at the same time on the same email as BCC? Where only the admin is listed in the TO field. Please help!We normally use the send an email provided in operations by Nintex but since this is a global automation initiative, we need it coming through as an internal email, not flagged as external email. This action is amazing and very little issues but I’m finding the exchange connector to be very difficult!!!!!

Adding SPF-Record to avoid Workflow-Emails being marked as SPAM

I’m working on a Workflow that would send Tasks, not only to people within my organisation, but also to external people. In my tests to my private email address I have noticed that nintex@workflowcloud.com gets marked as SPAM and also if I use a different address like “office@mycompany.com”.  I thought if I would add an SPF-record to my domain’s DNS-records that it would decrease the chance that the email would get marked as SPAM, if I use “office@mycompany.com”. But what would be the exact SPF-record to add? And are there any more settings like DKIM I could add?

Query a list and display it to add information

Hi all, I have been trying to follow some previous articles (namely @jesse_mchargue’s Queries, and Collections, and Loops, Oh My!) because it seems to be explaining somewhat what I want to achieve, but with the broken images, it is making it a bit difficult for a newbie like myself!I currently have a form which asks a user to submit payments against a reservation. I have used a repeating section to allow the user to submit more than one payment.I was able to loop and add that data to a Sharepoint list where each ‘transaction’ is a new row (thanks to the advise of @brandiwoodson).The second part of my solution (and the bit that I fear wont be possible) to the issue I am trying to resolve, is for a different user at the end of the day to go into another form, query all the transactions that were submitted on that day in the particular station, then add an authorisation code. Similar to the mockup-below The authorisation code will then be added to the relevant row in Sharepoint. This will

Getting error when assigning a second task: assignee required. [Error Code: IO.AsyncActionExecute.ErrorResponse]

Hello,I have a Nintex cloud workflow using a start event form in SharePoint. High-level, there are three paths with a task form on each based on which “reviewer” is selected on the SharePoint form. Each path is set to “wait” and query a list to set the workflow in motion if another person is added to review (in case the first person hasn’t completed their task yet). The three reviewers are: Liaison Reviewer M&M Reviewer Additional Liaison ReviewerThe user may select all three on the first time filling out the form or select one, then go back in an edit and select another one, or any variation of that. The workflow works fine when selecting only one of these reviewers individually, or all three at once, but getting an error when I only select one and then go back in to edit the form and add any others as a secondary reviewer. Test Example 1:On submit, someone is put into the Liaison Reviewer field - task email is sent On edit, someone is added to the M&M Reviewer field - no task
