Nintex Forms fails on list permissions only

Hi ,we have created a nintex form on a sharepoint online list. Some of our users does have list permissions only(edit permissions), no permissions on the site level. If they want to open the nintex form, they get an "sorry, you don't have access" error. Other users with read permissions on the site level can open the form. Any idea how to give the other users access to the nintex form? (permissions on the site level cannot be given due to other reasons).Thanks Lutz

Query SQL server on-premises inside Nintex Form in O365

Hello, I have 2 use cases. 1st use case is in SharePoint online, we want to use Nintex Form on a SP list, say we have textbox fields, is it possible on the form to query on premises SQL database based on the user input? E.g. User enter a zip code and the form can populate data on another form label/textbox control (the data is stored in on premises SQL database)?  2nd use case is on form submission, is it possible to stop the form from submitting if one of the field contains invalid entry? The logic for invalid is checking against on premises SQL database, if the value is not found in SQL, it's considered invalid.  I saw there is something called SQL Request control in Nintex form for SharePoint on premises. Cannot find them on Nintex form on O365 or NWC.  Thank you.

How to fix format for Document Generation?

Hi,  I am trying to get my PDF formatted the right way. On the picture you can see on the left, how it should look like (screenshot from Nintex Forms) and on the right the output from Nintex Document Generation.   For the date field, I already tried various options that are available within the Nintex Document Tagger. But the options available do not fit my requirements. Has anyone an idea? Or is this a current product restriction? Thanks for your support,Dom

Formula Fixed Decimal

I have variables that sum up dollar amounts that I display in a label. I am trying to figure out how to add two-digit fixed decimal to whole dollar amounts, or amounts with only one decimal, but haven't been able to figure it out. Does anyone know how I could update the variable formulas to do this? I could use pad right, but I can't figure out how to evaluate the number to know whether to add ".00" or "0". In my example below, I want it to show 172.50 for the second line, 1100.00 for the third. I know I could add read-only number fields for each value with 2 decimal places and create rules to display my variables instead, but that takes more than double the screen real estate and has extremely limited formatting options (no bold or italic, text size, etc..) I would even be okay with editing the JSON and importing it in, but I don't know how to format a number that way either - everything I find shows how to do it with JS, but that went away after the Classic form.

Upgrading Nintex Forms for Office 365 App to utilize "New Responsive Designer"

Currently in the process of upgrading the Nintex app on SharePoint sites that do not have the "New Responsive Designers". Wanted to know if there were any negative effects for my current forms within the site. Some older sites have a heavy number of forms built already using the Nintex "responsive designer"(Older app version). Still new to Nintex so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I have a requirement where I have to display meeting details on a Nintex Form, meeting details are saved in different list associated with item id of current list, meeting list has minimum of 10 column to display, Repeating section does not work here as Repeating section only binds with multi line column.

Nintex Classic - 365. Workflow history permissions

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I set up a workflow and one of my users needs to be able to see the history to track task progress. I showed her the page that shows open tasks on my screen, but she couldn't see those details until I made her a site collection admin. This is not an ideal situation, our policy is to restrict site admin rights to IT for a couple reasons. Does anyone know what permissions someone needs to see the workflow history? I ensured she had full control of the list, access to both workflow tasks and workflow history lists, not sure what else to give her.

Workflow suddenly start generating intermittent errors on save/publish.

The only reference I saw to something like this was from 2016 and had no actual resolution (just a nebulous, "your workflow is too big" conversation). Which I might believe if a) we didn't have larger ones, and b) trying to restore back to the original, smaller workflow in development still causes the issue.Recently we finished a list/form/workflow update and were asked to replicate the new piece to another, related list. After spending a good chunk of a day creating the couple new columns, updating the form and then adding the actions to the workflow in development we did some tests. Everything looked good other than I hadn't updated the text in the emails from the approval tasks. So the following morning I began to add those same parts to production. After getting part of the way through I saved and kept going, on the next save attempt I received:Oops! Something went wrong.If the problem persists, contact your support team with the following information:ButtonPanel - handleXamlBuildE

Pull in manager of recipient to workflow

I have a simple SharePoint list that pulls in a nominee name (via person/group field) and I want to be able to send a workflow email to the nominee and also the nominee's manager.   I can't seem to find a simple way to do this and it seems like something a lot of people would find useful.  Can anyone answer this simple question?  I thought I could create a variable but I don't know how to set up the value.  Thanks!

Unable to Publish Nintex form

I have a nintex form on a Sharepoint list previously created and the form is already on the production with a NWC workflow running successfully on it and the users of the list are able to complete the requests successfully. However, I tried attaching a sharepoint column(single line of text) to a field on the form called 'Amount' which is a single line text field and tried publishing the form, I get the following error.I checked all the rules and all I couldn't quite put my finger on the issue. All your feedback is much appreciated. P.S: I tried to put the sharePoint column field directly on the form and publish as well. the sme error was replicated.

Capturing more than one email in a form

Hi, I currently have a list with a form and workflow. The list form has a people picker that allows for multiple selections, but only allows our internal emails. The workflow sends an email to all of these people. We would like to start including external users on the email. I thought that maybe I could use the email field that is available in the form designer, but that only allows for one selection and we need it to be a dynamic number of users. Will I have to create multiple fields and not be dynamic? Is there anything else I can do instead?

Summing fields in realtime in a new responsive form? (Not Repeating section)

I have seven number fields in my Responsive form and I would like to sum them in real time so the user can see the running total.  The total doesn't need to be written to the list, just shown on the form. I've tried setting calculated column in Sharepoint, I've tried setting the default value of the "total" control to a formula of sum(column1,column2, column3) and I haven't been able to get it to work.  I'm sure this is simple and I'm just missing something.  Please help!
