Is lookup() function supporting for cross site now?

I'm trying to use the lookup() function to access a list from a different site.I'm tried to use lookup("/sites/bbb|listName", "Title","xxx","Title")  in site ("/sites/aaa/xxx"), and I got #Value!I got a error message: [/sites/bbb|listName-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] - A request for SharePoint data failed. Error details: List 'listName' does not exist at site with URL 'https://xxxxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/aaa/xxx'. And I researched this post, it said O365 does not supported for cross site yet in 2016.(Ref: https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-Office-365-Forum/Lookup-runtime-function-using-a-list-from-another-site/td-p/39679 ) However, I found the current limitation which is no mention about the lookup function is not able to access another site, and the Lookup control will now query across site collections within then tenant.(Ref: https://community.nintex.com/t5/Responsive-Forms/New-Responsive-Office365-Current-limitations/m-p/89047) Hence, Is lookup() function supporting for cross si

Nintex Novice - I have a parallel block, what next?

I am a nintex novice (IE not technical) but I am trying to build out a workflow for my form with multiple status updates.  The form will be submitted by a team member.I have a parallel block that is working.  After I review the form I have 2 status update options (either rejected or pending).  Each option will trigger an email.  This part is working.After the pending step - i have one option.  it is essentially a 2nd pending step but with an additional piece of information.  How do i move into this action and have it trigger the email to the initiator?After the above item is updated - I have 2 options (action required or final approval).  How do i move into these steps to trigger the appropriate emails?

Nintex form validation based off another fields input

Hello, I am trying make one of my fields required based off of the input in another field. I would like for the C4C OPP ID# (highlighted in green) to be mandatory if the Estimated Quote Amount (highlighted in yellow) is greater than or equal to 25000.  I have been googling solutions and reading a bunch of validation wikis, but I can’t seem to get it to work. I am new to Nintex and have been assigned the “admin” role within my company, so I have users coming to me to fix their forms or make changes.  I have the following rule setup, but it doesn’t seem to give me the result I am looking for:I put this rule on the C4C OPP ID# control since this is the field I want to make required based on the input of the other field. Does anyone have any solutions or recommendations?

Nintex Workflow 365 will not accept changes made to workflow

I have a workflow which has been running for more than a year and a Task Process needed to have an outcome change from one state (send to Manager) to a different state (send to Submitter) to improve the flow.However, when i changed the Outcome in the task and the Change State to the newly routed outcome/state, the published version of the workflow task is still showing the old Outcome wording, and when it is chosen, instead of it following the new change state, or the previous change state, it is running the Default Outcome which closes the workflow.I have also tried adding the Outcome (send to Submitter) and after publishing, it is not showing either.I think the Task is not updating the possible outcomes, and when the changed outcome is chosen, it no longer sees that as an outcome and sends it down the Default path, as if no outcome was chosen, but i don’t know how to fix this.I appreciate any advise you can provide.Thank you,Danny

Who is the Lazy Approver?

How can I track who the LazyApprover is? For auditing purposes I need to track who approved a request but if Lazy Approval is allowed and someone can forward an email to someone else then how do I know who approved it and save it to a list column? I usually track this on the task form but now sure how with email approval. System: Sharepoint Online, Nintex for O365 Workflow and Forms

Ability to reverse sort and add from the top into a repeating section

Hi Everyone,we have Nintex for O365 form on a sharepoint online list that tracks case information.As the case is updated a row is add to the repeating section with additional notes.As the case builds up the number of repeating section rows and increases where it can be a bit of a scroll down the form. When you go to add a new row you can no longer see the static controls at the top of the form with case information.It would be very helpful to have an ability in the control to switch the ordering of the rows from acsending to decending with an ability to add a row at the top or bottom.I’ve raised an idea for this if you would to support it.Reverse sort or add to top for repeating section | Nintex Ideas Thanks,Gavin

Triggering workflow on a document library with metadata

Hi ,I have a document library with some columns that capture some metadata. When a new file is uploaded and metadata is added, I would like to send an email that a new document is uploaded and include the metadata in the email. I would like to send a different email  that the document is revised, if the file is overwritten and updated the metadata. This seems like almost impossible to do with Nintex. I tried enforcing checkout and setting certain columns to required. What is the best way to do this?

Leave site? - Changes that you made may not be saved - Error message when Submitting form - O365

There is a new error message appearing whever I hit Submit on a form I am developing:      If I click Leave or cancel - the form submits as normal and takes me back to the SharePoint list as expected. This error message appears in Chrome and Edge. I have rolled the form back to a previous date, error still appears.  Has there been an update to Nintex Forms O365 recently? This error only appeared today (Mon 11th May). Any help?
