HI,

 

The retirement of Nintex Workflow for O365 has come about because Nintex uses Microsofts 2013 workflow manager to run workflows.  As Microsoft is deprecating this feature the workflow product will no longer work. The new Nintex Workflow app uses Nintex Automation Cloud to run workflows for SharePoint online.

As Nintex forms for O365 does not use Microsofts workflow engine the product will not be affected.

Some additional info:
Nintex Forms for Office 365 does not use the 2013 workflow engine, so the retirement of the SharePoint 2013 workflow engine has no effect on this product. Separately, Microsoft has indicated they will deprecate the original SharePoint app model (announcement date TBD) we used to build this app and will replace it with a new integration mechanism known as SharePoint Framework (SPFx).
We will be releasing the new SPFx app for Nintex Forms in May, well ahead of any retirement date that Microsoft may announce. Customers will need to update their environments with the new app, but all functionality will continue as-is.
More information on this change will be shared as we get closer to the release date.
