Nintex for Office 365

Anyone have any ideas how to get and format the current date in Workflow for O365? I can't see a build string action in Workflow for O365 nor the fn-formatdate() function. Is this functionality not catered for in Workflow for O365? Thanks for your help.

Hi,I am trying to explore Nintex office 365 workflow using trial version. Here I am not able to find several workflow action like LinkedIn Workflow action.Whats the possible reason behind not displaying all the actions? Its due to trail version?

Hi Guys, I am testing the water with nintex workflow for office 365, I need keep the trial information for audit purposes and I want to know if the workflow status will desapear after 60 days like in nintex on-premises ? If so is there a workaround to get the workflow history log? ThanksWalter

I'm looking for a little bit of best practice / guidance here. When a form is submitted, I want to stop the initiator from editing the form to avoid people changing details after it has been through the approval step.  I do this by setting permissions on the item to read-only for all users.  However, after that it appears that the workflow can't update the status, as I assume it's still running under the profile of the initiator and thus loses the ability to update.  Suggestions please? How do others stop the user from changing the form once submitted? Thanks,

Are there any negative ramifications for using tables to control text layout in a Nintex O365 form - especially when the form might utilize different layouts? I have a legacy InfoPath form that I am converting to a Nintex O365 form. The legacy form uses tables to control the text layout. For example, it has a 2 column/multi row table for product features. The first column lists the feature names and the second column lists the feature descriptions, each feature in its own row. Is it safe to re-create this in Nintex with a table, or should I use separate label objects for each and manually align them? Many thanks!Dean

My Client ID is not showing. Any idea?  

I have included a js file, and trying to call the function inside the js file but nothing happened, am i wrong syntax? thanks.  

I want to use the BCC, FROM fields in an email action like being used in Nintex On-Premise. Is this also possible in Nintex for Office 365 ? If not possible, are there any other tricks possible ? ThanksJaap

What are the licensing restrictions for external user access who do not have o365 accounts and are not a part of the company to Nintex Forms/Workflow in o365?

Hi, I am trying to copy a document with unique column 'xyz' from document library A to library B with same column there. The columns are defined at site level. I have enforced uniqueness on column xyz on library A but not in B (since this is a monthly procedure and B is a archive folder) However, the column xyz is still not being copied. All other custom columns are being copied. Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

How can we add an attachment control in a Nintex form of a document library?

So, following along with this tutorial: How to design a Multi-Step form with Nintex Forms for Office 365 , I got pretty far on my multi-page form! But, I want to show certain pages conditionally, which led me to this question: Skip pages in a multi-step form .  My case is slightly different, however, as I'm not checking exactly a checkbox status, I'm seeing if a checkbox is checked in a multi-select choice control. As I'm AWFUL at Javascript (read: useless) I'm a bit stuck. I found this comment from Sean Fiene‌, https://community.nintex.com/message/25778#comment-26033  about identifying the multi-select checkbox bits, and I got his "showMe" function to work great, but I guess I'm stuck on putting the puzzle pieces together. Right now my form looks a bit like this: The "IT Request Information" should only show if "IT Request" is checked, and there are other panels that are the same way (ex there's a panel for "Mobile Device" and "Employee Transfer TO your team" etc).  If anyone could al

This should be possible, but I suspect it would require javascript rather than just inline functions. On a Nintex Office 365 form, I need to set a default value for a person field from a list lookup if the value on another field meets certain conditions.  This is at the Form level, rather than within Workflow.Requirement:If Division_field = {X} and Location_field = {Y}  (first couple of fields filled out by user)     then set default value of Manager2_field (at bottom of form) to be Manager2 field value from Manager2_List where Location = {Y}.Else      default is blank. Any suggestions or pointers would be very much appreciated.  I haven't done much coding with javascript in this environment so any javascript solutions would need to be verbose.  Thanks!

Recently, I have been hitting more and more throttling related errors in SharePoint Online ... finding workflows stuck in Suspended state, and unable to continue due to the density of demands on the workflow environment (probably).It's explained to some extent here:How to: Avoid getting throttled or blocked in SharePoint OnlineBut I'd really like to know what strategies we could employ when building workflows to avoid this pitfall. I have been adding 1 minute pauses (or longer, as required) when workflows have become suspended. But always feel that this should only really be a remedial solution.Is there any specific advice we could get with the following types of actions to help reduce their impact:1. Assigning Approval tasks2. Updating List Items3. Using List Lookups to set Workflow Variables or list item values4. Parallel actions....anything else that could overload the system.

Does anyone has answer to my question? The need is to capture picture with mobile phone and send it to SharePoint image library, which is showing those pictures on the front page as image slider. Does Nintex Mobile support image library?

Hello, I have a unique question that I couldn't find on the discussion boards. I am trying to update multiple list values from a Nintex Form input to a SharePoint list. This is for O365. Here is a copy of my form so you can understand what I'm trying to do:  As you can see, I have a rating system of Exceeded, Met, Did Not Meet, and NA. What I need to show up in the SharePoint list is a number value for each of the selections. For Exceeded: 5, Met: 3, Did Not Meet: 1, and NA: 0. I tried using a Workflow for the first time and got it to work with the snapshot below using the action "Update List Item". I was only able to get one field to change based on one value. You can only have 15 workflows per library or list.  Ok - Now for the question. How do I get this to correlate for all of my survey questions?? I was going to use a VLookup function, but I know there has to be a way to use this software more efficiently. Is there a way to use something on my entire list that says if there is an

Need to setup the list item so that;a) Only initiators can read/edit their itemb) Approver group should be able to read/edit their item.This is great for the initiator of the item.How do we enable a SharePoint Group say "List Item Approvers" Group to be able to View all and Edit all items?New to Nintex Workflow but, I have obtained the desired result by using Impersonation Step in SharePoint Designer(2010) workflow with other lists.Would like to know if there is a similar action/step in Nintex Workflow Designer. If not, what is the recommended method to setup this level of permission in list item using Nintex Workflow for Office 365.

Hi All, This should be a simple thing to do, but I'm having issues. Venturing into the world of Nintex for O365 and having issues with the Approvers Comments. I have a task that completes successfully, I store the ID from the task in variable (turns out this is a GUID not the list ID) and then using this to do a lookup and and return "Approver Comments". Not getting anything returned in the query. I've edited the form using a Nintex form and checked the controls and it seems the "Comments" field is connected to a column called "Comments" (not "Approver Comments"). "Approver Comments" is not available to connect to from the form designer. And in my List query, there is no column called "Comments" to select.Confused.

Hi,How do your Office 365 users react when they want to change the ownership of a workflow task?This out of the box feature of Nintex Workflow on premises is not available on Office 365, and I am quite surprised not to see anybody asking how to workaround it,I can see that it is requested Task delegation is missing – Customer Feedback for NintexHow do you all deal with delegation if a user cannot respond to a task ?

I have an historical list of data that utilizes the column ID as the project ID number. I have a new nintex form that will be used in our new sharepoint site for project submissions (we are retiring the old sharepoint site). I need to continue to work with the historical list of the project data. If I import the project list to a new sharepoint site, will the new nintex form submission pickup from where the last ID number is (1300) or start over at 1? Example: current list ends with ID number as 1300. If after I import the project data list to a new site, will the next form submission grab the ID as 1301 or 1?

Hello Everyone, I'm new to Nintex forms and starting out in Office 365. I'm running into issues with branding and validations, as well as retaining data in lookup columns after a task has been launched. Branding Issues After trying a few troubleshooting steps with the images on theNintex forms. It seems to be narrowed down to browser issues. Connecting inside and outside of the Cintas Network, resulted in no images. After adding the form or image library URL, to the Privacy Settings in Internet Options as a trusted site, the images were visible, but only visible if added to each PC. This has only worked for me so far, the others have added the site with a wildcard and no go. I’m not sure if they have tested the image library. IE11, and Firefox are working for myself, there are still problems with Chrome. The image library is in the same sub-site as the list, just in case I needed to add it to the site collection, I added a picture library to the site collection and the pic URL from tha

I am using the QueryList option to lookup  a value from a List using the options as indicated with the Query List action.When I use the Add Filter Rule option, I want to select the column (example Region) is Equal to the tRegion variable.When selected , there comes a column 'Property' in between (confusing me like...) indicated the column Created ????How is this action suppose to work ? Am I missing something ? 

Is there a way to run NWadmin functions for workflow in Office 365 or achieve the same effect?  Specifically, the NWAdmin.exe -o DelegateAllTasks ... function for blanket delegation of current tasks from one user to another.  Thanks,

Hi I have a control that was originally set up outside of a repeating section. It was then decided to move it into the repeating section which I did. I disconnected the field from the main list column. However even though the properties say it is disconnected, when I hover over the control it says it is still connected. Is this a bug? I guess the only way around this for the moment is to delete and recreate the control.  

Hi! Is it only me facing that issue, or is it that I am doing something wrong (but what? ), but since yesterday I am simply unable to run custom JS in Nintex Forms for Office 365... Console is claiming that NWF$ is not defined... NWF object is also udnefined. Like no javascript is working  This is of course in standard form   I have tested it on three tenants and faced the same behavior...   Regards,Tomasz
