Upgraded from SP 2013 to SP 2016 on Monday. We’ve used Nintex Workflow since SP2010 starting in 2012, jsyk. The upgrade went smooth, no workflow errors, etc. The one oddity is intermittent missing progress links under the workflow column. This is universal across all 8 site collections, one of which has several InfoPath form libraries. Every form library’s workflow list is doing it. Any ideas? I have NOT run a final psconfig because the forms and workflows and reporting are running well, and we needed to get the system back to the users. Here’s what we are seeing. BTW, this is an internal instance, not public facing:
Hello! Happy Friday. On SP 2013, we’re looking to create a HTML table output from a repeating section that contains choice fields and list-lookups. Is there a way to insert the actual text, rather than the item #/choice #? Current Output Form:Item = Look-up field (referencing another list), while item status = drop-down choice. Hoping there could be an ootb solution for this. Thank you for clarity and guidance!
We are using Nintex Forms 2019 on-prem and would like to know if there is a way to use this functionality without going into Edit Mode. The form has several sections, which were created using panels. A choice field was created with a 'choice button' for each panel. Using a Rule on each panel, a panel can be selected, which causes the others to be hidden to simplify the form. For instance, when the Software Assessment panel is selected, the other panels are hidden from view until a different one is selected. The issue with this functionality is that the only way a user can move through the panels is to be in Edit Mode. In Edit Mode, users have the potential to arbitrarily make changes where they did not intend to. Is there like functionality in Nintex on-prem that allows a user to move through the panels without being in Edit Mode?
Images are not being displayed when uploaded to a nintex form. /SiteCollectionImages/_layouts/15/NintexForms/Modern/NewForm/14517-image.png If we change the destination library when uploading the image then it displays, the images in the NewForm folder above also show as broken links from within SharePoint.
Hello,I have multiple lookup columns with certain values(Column A with values a,b,c and Column B with x,y,z ), now I have a new lookup column C and I want the value to be a,b,c,x,y,z . All these lookup columns are connected to same master list . But through the workflow when I update it saves only first value i.e. “a”.Is there any solution for this ?
Hi all, I have review task that I’d like to be automatically completed if the following occurs:Reviewer name is removed from list of reviewer “Status” is changed I have a branch of my workflow that will wait until an update occurs in the “Status” and ends the workflow subsequently completing all pending tasks. However, I need help figuring out a way to automatically complete the task when the reviewer changes. I currently have a while that will check, but since these review tasks can take up to a few weeks for people to complete, this while loop will reach its maximum loops and error. However I don’t want add an extended delay to the loop either because I’d like the response be as quick as possible when a reviewer is removed. Thoughts? Thanks
I was wondering if it is possible to make changes to a form whenever the form is submitted. For instance; is it possible to make all fields read-only when someone submits a form (I am using new responsive designer).
I have two person fields in a form on Office 365 Nintex. Its a new responsive form. I want to validate that the two person fields are different within the form rather than on the workflow. I know formerly this was a reccomended use case for inline fuction. Do we have something comparable in New Responive?
I would like to add a default value "https://" to Nintex hyperlink control?

i got this warning on central administration and purge not affected on decreasing number of rows, any idea how i can deal with this table keeping in consideration this is a production area.
I have what I would expect to be a simple validation of a form control not to have any special characters. It seems like a Regular Expression should handle this. I read this prior post which appeared to give me a simple answer of w+. I tried that and it didnt allow even valid alpha numberic characters. I also tried ^[a-zA-Z0-9] which I found by google searching. This allowed special characters still. Any ideas?
Hi,Workflow failing on start. Open the workflow displays the following:"”Error retrieving config xml for activity 'Assign Flexi task' using adapter type Nintex.Workflow.Activities.Adapters.NWMultiOutcomeAdapter, Nintex.Workflow, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=913f6bae0ca5ae12.and workflow diagrams blank

When trying to update certain Nintex Actions (ex. Set a Variable, Run If), the action will time out when trying to open the action. The following error message appears: “Sorry, Something went wrong, An unexpected error has occurred”. This has recently started in the past month. It will work for a few minutes, then the error appears. Any suggestions? Using SharePoint 2013.

On a workflow start form list lookup I would like to check all the options and prevent the user from changing the selections.The following automatically checks all the boxes in the control when the list lookup filter changes;NWF$("input[type=checkbox]").click(function() { setTimeout( function(){ NWF$('.mandatory :checkbox').each(function(i){ NWF$(this).prop("checked", true); }); },200);});However I am having an issue with preventing further changes to the list lookup control.Setting Appearance Enabled=No on the control does not seem to do anything, the checkboxes can still be modified. What is Enabled Y/N supposed to do?
I have several questions someone may be able to answer about gaining analytics:How would I set up a workflow to track how long it takes for someone to complete a Nintex form (time from opening form to hitting the submit button)?How would I configure the beacons?What other functions of the workflow would I need to add?Can you generate reports based on these analytics?
The Nintex Subscription Usage Report available via on-premises SharePoint Central Administration > NINTEX > LIcensing is displaying and double-counting a couple of workflows. I’ve checked it over the past few days and it is not correcting itself. Is there anything I can do to force it to re-do its inventory? We are licensed for 10 Production Workflows and it thinks that is what we have, but the true count is only 8 because it’s double-counting 2 workflows. It shows the same metadata values in the repeats (Workflow name, Site relative URL, Production/Development, Billable Actions, and Total Actions), so it’s not as if I can go anywhere to delete the “extra” workflows...
Hi thereI have a PowerShell Script stored on our AD Server, which creates a new AD User. I'd like to execute that PS-Script with my Nintex Workflow with some Variables such as first name. But I have not been able to find a way to do this except for Programming my own API with C# or Python which would be running on our AD-Server and then send my API-request to that API using the "Web-request" or "Web-Call" Workflow Action.I have seen this Nintex RPA Action for executing a PowerShell Script: https://help.nintex.com/archives/en-US/rpa/v1/Actions/PowerShell.htmDoes something similar to this exist for Nintex for Sharepoint 2019? Or can I somehow add this feature to Nintex for SharePoint 2019?Or do you know another way to execute PowerShell Scripts remotely or create AD Users remotely from a Nintex for SharePoint 2019 Workflow?Thanks for any replies. :)
This is already happening few times to us.Approval Task redirects to SharePoint Task item page instead of ApproveReject page, this suddenly happening to one of workflows which has a Request Approval module.I across some solutions posted 2 years and 6 years ago:https://community.nintex.com/nintex-for-sharepoint-67/task-approval-redirects-to-sharepoint-task-item-instead-of-approvereject-aspx-page-16765https://community.nintex.com/archive-25/why-would-request-approval-step-not-redirect-to-approvereject-aspx-page-56867 So has this already been fixed with any specific patching? Or any simpler solution or best practice has been advised by Nintex? Thanks.
I’m using Nintex for Sharepoint 2019 on prem and I’m trying to send a POST request to Graph API to send an email.The flow is as follows:A GET request to Graph with ClientID and SecretID to get a token back. This part is working fine.Then you’re supposed to send the token as the Authentication header when sending the next GET/POST request depending on what you want to do. In my case, I’m sending a POST request to the /sendMail endpoint.I know the token I’m getting is good because I can successfully make the POST request via Postman and I get a 202 response and the email sends out. But whenever I try to replicate the same exact request from the workflow, I get the following error: code":"InvalidAuthenticationToken","message":"CompactToken parsing failed with error code: 80049244This usually means the format of the token is wrong, or that the token is not the correct one for what the request is asking (but I already know this is not the case since it works via Postman).The header is suppo
