I have a number of worflows that are working when users pass same form between themselves and update certain fields. The initiator usually creates the request and then the form is modified by different users. I noticed that during the workflow, the "modified by" field is correctly showing the last person who edited the form, but as soon as the workflow ends, modified by field defaults back to initiator's name. Is there a way to show the last person who approved/modified the form? Initiator's name logically shouldn't be there as last modified since he is not touching the form at all since raising initial request. Thank you for any suggestions!

I'm developing a web application that uses Office 365 authentication.I need to access users' SharePoint files. The app is a Multi-Tenant application, it means that I don't know the Sharepoint URL, but I can use Microsoft Discover API to discover the Sharepoint URL of the current user.I want to acess sharepoint files using the Microsoft.Sharepoint. Client library. Consider the following code:ClientContext context = new ClientContext("https://discoveredserver.sharepoint.com");// The SharePoint web at the URL.Web web = context.Web;// We want to retrieve the web's properties.context.Load(web);I get a 403 not authorized because the client object doesn't have the credentials. The problem is that I can't set credentials during runtime because I don't have it, the only thing that I have is the Bearer token, which allows the connection to the Sharepoint API, using an HTTP header authorization.Is there any way to set the Bearer token in the Sharepoint client to call Sharepoint Web Services?
I think there must be something wrong with my installation? I have a flexi task that assigns tasks to people that may not necessarily be an owner or member of the site. The tasks in the Workflow Task List are NOT editable by the person they are assigned to. Is that how it is supposed to work? Am I supposed to let all people be able to complete any task?
I have a single nintex form associated with 7 different pages. Right now I have it such a way that whenever a user fill out the form and do a save and close the user is redirected to the page based on the title of the page. For example: fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "continent_Africa"), "www.somesite.com/country/continent_Africa.aspx", fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "continent_Asia"), "www.somesite.com/country/continent_Asia.aspx", fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "continent_Australia"), "www.somesite.com/country/continent_Australia.aspx")))of course, it's all 7 continents. However, I want to refresh that page also. I used the following in the Client click field in the form settings, window.location.reload(), but the unfortunately the page did not refresh. Is there a way to do this?Help! 😕 Thank you in advance!

I am using Sharepoint/ Nintex 2013. I have a list with 12 items. It's named List A. I am only interested in one column, the Daily Rate.I wish to extract a variable number of items between 1 and 12. So I am using Query List with a Collection variable called vCollItems. Since the item limit is variable, I am using a Number type variable called itemLimit. The Query List configuration says: Use List A, select all records, don't filter them, extract the variable Item Limit number of records, and store the in the collection variable. When I go to run the query I see the following: After I run the query I get the following result: If I enter an actual number in the Item Limit field, the query returns the correct results. Has anyone seen this behavior? Any ideas on how to fix this?Thanks for any help you can provide.Pat
Hi,I've created the site workflow to generate list of KPI's that have to be accepted or rejected and to make thinks go fast and smooth (process) I wanted to use the 'insert reference' links for approval/reject to make that just clicking it within the email will be enough to complete the approval.Below are two screens:Massage with approval request Pop-up window in browser after selecting one of the optionsThe issue is that when approve/reject is selected it's moving you to the browser with the confirmation, and there is a link to see the workflow status there, and what i want is to get ride of it 😛 - do any of you know where I can edit it?
Currently having issues with approvers gaining access to the Nintex Form. We set "everyone" as contributors and the workflow is set up below. As you can see, it stops at the Program Manager Approve/Deny request and when the approver gets the email, there's an error stating they don't have access to the form.

Hi – I am using Nintex with SharePoint 2019. I created a repeating section in a list “Weekly Status Update” and placed five controls in it: Major Accomplishments – MLTWeek Ending – DateTeam – ChoiceCategory – ChoicePriority – Choice I have been able to use Query XML to parse the data and add each control to individual Collections. For instance, I have: colMajorAccomplish, colWeekEnding, colTeam, colCategory, colPriority. I created a For each loop and stored the Collections into variables. I have: varMajorAccomplish, varWeekEnding, varTeam, varCategory, varPriority. I also have an index configured for each collection. I have a Math operation that loops through the variables. I have created a separate list called “Weekly Report.” Each of the collections has a “Create item” to add variable content to the “Report” list. Where I’m stuck: The workflow runs, but it does not add all of the collection items to a single list item. If I do a save in my form, it will add a separate row/index for e
Can anyone from Nintex explain why this happened? is this by design? I have 3 different Workflows starting on modified set to Conditionally and specified the fields Workflow 1 - writes an item into different list if Column A value got changed. Workflow 2 - Updates the Column B and puts a value of name of the User(Ex:UpdatedBy John") Workflow 3 - Update the column C and puts a value of name of the User(Ex:UpdatedBy John") Scenario. If I will change the value of Column B and C, only Workflow 1 and 3 are running.If I will change the value of Column B only (without changing Column c), Workflow 2 is running together with Workflow 1 I have tried to set the 3 Workflows starting modified set to YES and they all are running. Hope this make sense. Thanks
Hello, I have an application form/list which I would like users in my organization to be able to submit, even if they don't have an O365 account (it's a resort with many types of positions & not all employees get licenses). Is this possible?
I'm working on applying nested if statements in the Redirect URL field on a nintex form and having some problems with the syntax. Here is a code snippet....fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "cntry_Africa"), "www.somesite.org/dashboard/sitepages/cntry_Africa.aspx",fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "cntry_Asia"), "www.somesite.org/dashboard/sitepages/cntry_Asia.aspx",fn-if(fn-contains(Site URL, "cntry_America", "www.somesite.org/dashboard/sitepages/cntry_America"))) I'm new to this and not too sure what I'm doing incorrectly. Can someone help? Thanks!

I have a field titled "What groups need to be added?" In this drop down their are 3 selections:GXSPRBIND CEG Segment ZBOR or ALT CEGs Both If "GXSPRBIND CEG" is selected, I want to show the field "Overall SPRB Indirect Rates reporting CEG" and Hide "Provide segment CEG Group" If "Segment ZBOR or ALT CEGs" is selected, I want to show the field "Provide segment CEG group" and Hide "Overall SPRB Indirect Rates reporting CEG" If "Both" is selected, I want to show both fields I think i can do this with a rule but the way i have it currently formulated is not working.
Need to understand if post expiration of Nintex license, the SharePoint site is moved to a read-only state- 1) Do we still need to have the license renewed to ensure the site remains as-is? 2) will the workflow remain in a read-only state or get deleted automatically? 3) The workflow which is in running state, will it get cancelled automatically?

I have a choice list field called "ExpenseType" with options Meals and Parking.I have a single line text field called "ExpenseCost". I want this field to be editable (cannot be a calculated field). When I select "Meals" from the choice list, I want the "ExpenseCost" field to be automatically populated with "$20". When "Parking" is selected, I want the field to be populated with "$10". Do I need to use Javascript to do this? Can someone point me in the right direction?
Hello, I am running into an issue and after trying formula after formula, reading forum after forum... I still can't seem to figure it out. I have a Nintex form, and there are multiple date entry fields for each section of the form. The first pair is "Start Date" and "End Date" which uses date only. The other two pairs I have which appear about 6~9 times are "Start Date & Time" and "End Date & Time", as well as "Issue Date & Time" and "Return Date & Time". I have applied rules to each in attempt to prevent the Return/End dates from being before the Issue/Start dates. The controls that only use the Date and not the time work perfectly with...When: GreaterThan(StartDate,EndDate)Then: InvalidateValidation Message: End date must be after start date But when I try to do this with fields using date and time, the rule does not do anything at all even when the formula should be shooting out as true. I tried: GreaterThan(StartDateTime,EndDateTime) LessThan(EndDateTime,StartDat
