I have a request form that is filled out when a user wants to add Nintex Form App or Nintex Workflow App to their site.  Once I receive the request, I use the "Add an App" feature for both.  For Workflow I also add to Site Collection Admins and Activate "Workflow can use app permissions".  I am trying to figure out if I can automate these tasks.  Can I use Nintex workflow to:

  1. Add an App" to another site?
  2. Add to site Collection Admins to another site?
  3. Activate workflow permissions to another site?

Hi

1. Add an App" to another site?

No, you can't automate the adding of an App on a SharePoint site. It must be done manually.

 

2. Add to site Collection Admins to another site?

Yes, you can use the REST API of SharePoint, but it's a bit complex (From a workflow, you need to use the call http web service)

3. Activate workflow permissions to another site?

If you are talking about activating the feature "Workflow can use App permission" you can use the SharePoint REST API too
