If you have sharepoint 2010 intranet with a nintex form and you're trying to save documents uploaded to the forms via a workflow, can you save them to a file server that is not cloud based.

I am trying to save a document directly to a company fileshare via workflow. We have SharePoint intranet 2010 and working with Nintex forms. When you create a nintex form there is an attachment upload that appears at the bottom of the form. See example:

 

When I select the controls, I don’t see where I can specify a location to deposit the attachment.

Same in the workflow.

I am trying to save this to the following:

Is there a way to accomplish this and incorporate it into a workflow?

I appreciate the response and that would be great, but this only allows me to copy the attachment to a second list that is in SharePoint. What I am looking for is to save the attachment off sharepoint and download the document to a specific folder on a company file share. I just want to know if what i’m looking to do is even possible.

Hi @kwalser ,

 

Have you tried using the Copy to file share action?
