created a WF to run on a document that is a certain CT. The WF needs to pickup/grab the DocSet name - then set it to a variable - in order to rename the document (PDF) (using a string I have configured) and then route (copy) that PDF to a certain folder in a different doclib. How do I configure the WF to GET the docset name for the document the wf is running on? (there are many docsets) Clearly getting the NAME field isn’t working (as it picks up the name of the doc - the NAME field for the docset is also the same field for the doc NAME)
Hi There,may i know how do we get the value of single line of text which has the JavaScript client ID of resultText and calculated value’s ID is calcResult. However the line of $("#" + "calcResult").val(minValue); However, it does not solves the issue. Is there any suggestions?function calculatelowest() { var stringValue = NWF$("#" + jsarrayinteger).val(); if (stringValue.trim() === "") { alert("Input is empty. Cannot calculate CPI Score"); return; } var numberArray = stringValue.split(',').map(Number); if (numberArray.some(isNaN)) { alert("Invalid input. Please provide a valid list of numbers separated by commas."); return; } var minValue = Math.min(...numberArray);// alert(minValue);NWF$('#' + resultText).val(minValue);$("#" + "calcResult").val(minValue);}
We have Nintex forms for SharePoint 2019 installed on our servers with version number 5.1.2.0 which has the JqueryUi.js file in its layouts folder “/_layouts/15/nintexforms/jqueryui.js” with version number “jQuery UI - v1.10.3”. We have got our application scanned for vulnerabilities and security team has found it vulnerable version of jquery. They asked us to upgrade it to 1.13.2 version which is the latest stable version. It would be helpful if you can let us know how we can upgrade the latest version of Jquery Should we just copy and replace or is there any other way ? Is there any impact, if yes, What will be that ? Awaiting for you response on this one.

I have a workflow that uses an “Execute SQL” action to connect to an Oracle database that is failing after moving my SharePoint farm to a new server. The workflow used to work on the old server, but on the new one, I get this error: Error performing database operation. System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater. I just installed Oracle 12.2.0 client using the Oracle install procedure, but it’s still not working. Can someone assist?
Overview: Basically, we have a SharePoint 2016 [On-Prem] environment, and we are setting up the messaging & notification for Nintex Workflows in this environment. Find the screenshot below for the details. We are connecting to the`smtp.office365.com` SMTP server. Issue:When running a test workflow to test the email, it is not being sent or received. Furthermore, we found the below log in ULS. How can this be resolved? Failing sending email: LocalErrorInProcessing.: System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: Error in processing. The server response was: 5.7.3 STARTTLS is required to send mail [AM0PR10CA0114.EURPRD10.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM 2024-03-07T15:34:42.730Z 08DC3D4022D05469] at System.Net.Mail.MailCommand.CheckResponse(SmtpStatusCode statusCode, String response) at System.Net.Mail.MailCommand.Send(SmtpConnection conn, Byte[] command, MailAddress from, Boolean allowUnicode) at System.Net.Mail.SmtpTransport.SendMail(MailAddress sender, MailAddressCollection recipients, String delivery
Hi! Using Nintex Forms, normal on the left and on the right of the forms there is quite big white margine. Can I replace the form in the way there’s no longer a big white margine on the left of the form so that the form begins directly on the left? Thanks!!!Jakob
I faced a problem with the new designer lookup control when connecting it to a SharePoint column with lookup data type. The SharePoint column has already been configured with a list from which the data should be loaded and the specific column of that list from which the data should be pulled. The problem starts in the Form Designer, after you open the lookup properties – if you leave the lookup as it is (dropped from the side pane) then it will work without any error, but as soon as you open the properties of the lookup you get the error that the control has not been properly set up and in the properties you can see that the list and column properties are empty.Prior to opening the properties panel the lookup loads data successfully, only after you open it to change the name for example does the lookup not load data anymore and the error shows up. Is there a workaround to avoid encountering this type of error? ASC Lookup content type Lookup column settings ASC Content Type Lookup in
We are using SharePoint 2016 on premise. In a list workflow, we have a Flexi Task that sends approval requests to multiple users that are part of different SharePoint Groups. Currently, Flexi Tasks sends approval requests, reminders, and the tasks get delegated to the administrator if there are no responses. We have the settings stored in the Flexi Task.We want to have control over delegation. In other words, we want the Flexi Task to send approval requests, reminders, but NOT escalate the task. Hence, want to turn off the escalation feature.We want the ability to manually delegate a task after all reminders have been sent out.I am the SharePoint Developer and did some research and investigation on this issue with no luck. Considered using the “Delegate workflow task” - https://help.nintex.com/en-us/nintex2010/help/workflow/RootCategory/Actions/Nintex.Workflow.DelegateTask.htm.Dropped that action item on my workflow to manually delegate task.But then discovered that this control requir
I have an approval workflow designed in SharePoint 2016 on premise. The flexi tasks sends reminders. But I want to manually delegate the task after all reminders have been sent out. For that I created a site workflow and added an action item - Delete workflow task.I read the following blog, https://help.nintex.com/en-us/nintex2010/help/workflow/RootCategory/Actions/Nintex.Workflow.DelegateTask.htm Not sure how I get the Action ID of the task. What exactly is the Action ID. Thanks in advance. Mayank Shyam
Am trying to clean up a PreferredName userProfileLookUp using the “Replace” runtime function in a calculated value control.The PreferredName comes in like Joe Smith (CompanyIdentifier - 6) where the content between the parenthesis can change. I want to just end up with Joe Smith.In a workflow, I use the Regular Expression action to Replace the text with nothing. The regular expression match I use is:\(([^)]+)\)Works flawlessly. But when I use the same regular expression in a calculated value:replace(userProfileLookup(Current User,"PreferredName"),"\(([^)]+)\)","") I end up with ) instead of Joe SmithAny suggestions on why the regular expression would be different?FYI - trying to avoid using JS on form if at all possible to enhance down the road support.
We upgraded to SharePoint 2019 on prem with Nintex 2019, I need to edit a form that was created with Nintex 2016. When I try to edit it, I only get a blank white screen. I have the xml file, is there anything I can do to upgrade that form so it can be edited?
Hello,I used SP 2016 on-premises, and I have SharePoint list with CAName column that has a Person and Group type and allows multiple selection which means users are able to insert more than one person in the column. CAName's data is Smith,John;Kennedy Mary. The goal is to display the first name first, then the last name of the people on the list (Example: Dear John Smith, Mary Kennedy) which included a comma separating them.Is there a way to display the first name first, then the last name of multiple people from a Person or Group column which included a comma separating them? I’m appreciated for your help. I completed the follow steps below:1. Create the Person or Group column (named CAName), and set Allow multiple selection to Yes.2. Create a Nintex workflow.3. Create a workflow variable and set the type to Single line of text. I created varDisplayNames.4. Add Set Variable workflow action to the workflow. Set the workflow variable created in the previous step (varDisplayNames). Choos
We want a workflow to run if the date is blank.For this we create a datetime variable and initiate it to blank.Then we compare the date to this variable.It works if we run the workflow from the interfaceIt does not work if some other application is adding a record with API.

Can we run PurgeHistoryListData NWAdmin command in parallel on different site / subsites ?Also how can we get the status of the command if its completed or not?
I’m using the fn-IsMemberOfGroup on a Nintex Form on a SharePoint Online list. The function doesn’t seem to work correctly with a SharePoint group that has security groups on it. It only seems to work correctly if we have individual names listed in that group. Is that by design? The use case here is that this SharePoint Online site is connected to a Microsoft 365 group, so “members” are getting added to the security group and not the SharePoint Online group. The SharePoint Online group only has one item in it: the security group that contains all of the members.
Hi Nintex Support,Good day to you. I am currently using Nintex Workflow 2013. On January 26, 2024, I ran security patches for the Nintex Workflow, as shown in the screenshot below:After executing the security patches, I noticed that one of the workflows is not functioning properly. The workflow form status shows “Failed to Start” and the status remains stuck in “In Progress”. Despite attempting to manually start the workflow, it continues to fail. I need your support and assistance with this matter, as the workflow is critical to our operations. Thank you for your attention.Best regards,Hasrul
Hi all, I am using a Nintex responsive form and I’d like to create a rule so that the value of one control is set depending on the value of another named control (e.g. when Control 1 = “Yes”, Control 2 = “Approved”). However, my Control 2 field is a choice column with a dropdown and I do not see the option to create a “Set Value” rule. Is this type of control not available on this type of column? Are there any workarounds I can use? Thanks
I am using Nintex workflows for SharePoint 2019. Recently I migrated from SP2013 to SP2019. I scheduled site workflow to run once a day. The job of workflow is to send email notification report every day. I am receiving the notification twice. To avoid double notification I tried the following actions. I deleted the schedule. Now, there is no schedule to run the workflow. Verified Nintex database, [WorkflowSchedule] table, there is no record related to the workflow. Workflow instance is also not started because i deleted schedule. verified central administration, i can see only one instance of “Nintex Workflow scheduler” job.Now i am receiving one notification. the question is from where this notification is triggered? Kindly suggest the points to find this.
Hi… I am working on the Nintex form, where once the submit button is clicked, it should show different response page based on the field selection that was made.Is there a way that I can achieve above scenario.Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Using Nintex forms 2019 on SharePoint 2019. I have a custom list with a form I built in NINTEX. On my save and submit button, I have added a redirect under Advanced at the bottom.For some reason, the URL keeps getting %0A appended to the end. I have cleared out the field and tried everything I can, but it still adds these three characters to the end of the URL resulting in a 404 error when the user gets redirected after submitting the form. I’ve also ensured there is no New Line character of any sort on the end of the URL.I think it could be added from Notepad which is what I used to format the URL first ??Any ideas?
I would like know how to have the SharePoint 2019 responsive form respond to the change in value of a dropdown control to update the value of another control, specifically of the yes/no or dropdown (with Yes and No as options) type. In responsive mode, it doesn't seem to support custom JavaScript (as classic would). I found 1 rule type that sets the value of a single line text box based on a dropdown, but I don't want the target to be free-form text, rather something selectable like yes/no or a dropdown.
I am facing issues when trying to add formula in the formula builder. I don’t see the formula part of the screen to enter anything. please see image below. I have tried different browsers, but still the same issue. Any help is appreciated. sharepoint 2019 is my environment.
