This feels like an incredibly easy answer but I can't seem to find it. Basically I want to disable a panel based on if a calculated field is NOT empty. I can do it if it has certain data can do it if it's empty but I can't figure out how to do if it has any data in it  I'm sure this is going to be the easiest question ever answered. Thanks in advance
Hello, Â I am new to nintex/sharepoint form development and currently faced with an issue on a form I am developing for my company. Basically, we have a dropdown list with a bunch of pre-existing values & for each value that a user selects, the same set of questions are supposed to be asked for each selected value. My question is, is there a way to create some sort of variable that recognizes a selected dropdown option and can be used to populate the titles of the same set of questions that are supposed to be asked to a user so they can differentiate the questions from one another? If not using a variable, is there another way that I could approach this task? Hope it makes sense, I am new to development on this platform and could use some guidance. Thank You!
Hello Everyone, We are new in Nintex world, trying to find some way to approve through email. We just developed a simple workflow where initiator submit request for approval. And we want to send email notification to approving authority and get approval in email. Please confirm if this is possible and if this is possible, please guide.
I was previously using a custom validation function on a form to check for attachments, and more specifically, if 'a certain string' appeared in the filename: NWF$("tr[id^='attachRow']").each(function() { var arrParts = NWF$(this).find(".ms-addnew")[0].href.split('"'); var fileName = arrParts[5]; var match = (new RegExp('a certain string', 'i')).test(fileName); if (match) matchFound = true; });  This was working in Nintex version 4.3.3.0. However, since updating to version 4.6.1.30 this ceased to work. It appears as though attachments started to appear in the DOM differently now. So, I had to modify the code as follows: NWF$("tr[id^='attachRow']").each(function() { var fileName = NWF$(this).find(".ms-vb")[0].innerText; var match = (new RegExp('a certain string', 'i')).test(fileName); if (match) matchFound = true; });  I'm aware that relying on JavaScript is susceptible to these types of changes, as noted in the Release Notes: Important: Forms releases may include changes of some contro
I have a nintex form which has an attachment fieldThe form is showing that maximum allowed size if 2047 MB.I am uploading attachment of size 25 MB and then I submit the form. After clicking on the submit the item "Submission" is not created in my list and I am not getting any error message ... the system just directs me to the homepage. I tried to use the front end server url and upload the same attachment and it worked fine. Â

I have 2 problems. Details will be below the 2...  1. HTML table in email is not lining all the rows and instead only 1 box in every other row. 2. Collection variable not displaying when using a for each.  1. See screen shot      Screenshot with the code is what it should look like based on the HTML simulator.       Screenshot with the email of what is actually produced.      The information comes from collection variables looped through a "for each". I have a comment log for each "for each" and ccan confirm the loop is working correctly and that the data in the email is accurate, just the formatting is wrong. Screenshot below of the loop.   2. 2nd data collection operation not working as intended.       Screenshot below is the history log. Based on this I can see that the colleciton is pulling correctly as the names follow what they should. HOWEVER the last 2 comments are the "for each loop" that is pulling ONLY the title incorrectly.  This is the list query. ( I
Hi am new to supporting SharePoint/Nintex and we have a few Nintex workflows running on Prem and Monday night I installed windows updates and all of the workflows are Error "Failed to start" Canceled by System Account.  I have made sure all of the servers had have the updates and are in sync. I am not sure how to find the error. I tried turning on Verbose logging to one of them and the package failed. I created packages for other prior failures but there is nothing that indicates failure to start. I am at a loss of what to do; uninstall the security updates? All of the information regarding this type of error with security updates have been verified as existing in our systems.   Update installed areSecurity Update for Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016 (KB5002029) farm-deploymentSecurity Update for Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016 (KB5002006) farm-deployment

Hi All,I am trying to capturing the date and time of an action when it was executed and through another workflow. I am creating a workflow which will create workflow history table for an item, for all the workflows run on that item. I was able to capture all the data, dates and time. But I am stuck at one place. When I tried to capture date of that part I can't do that, and that information is also not present in the metadata, but when I check the version history, the date and time is there.  Is there any way that I can use to do this. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

Site Contents > Site Workflows = Something went wrong and a correlation id for one user.Other users, no problem (_layouts/15/workflow.aspx) until they select "View all workflows" (/_layouts/15/workflow.aspx?ShowAll=1) and then they get the same problem. As if something in the workflow history of the first user that causes the error (second user doesn't see it unless they "view all workflows". Digging around in the log looking for the correlation id and I'm seeing messages like: "12/15/2021 14:57:06.90 w3wp.exe (0x2915C) 0x26818 SharePoint Foundation General ai1wu Medium System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: List does not exist.

I'm trying to populate a user ID field on my Nintex form using a list lookup. I have a list called hr_import that contains a column named EMAIL and a column named ID. I want to pull that ID result into my Nintex form. I already have a named control on my form that's populating email based on the user profile lookup of the requestor who is submitting the form called Requestor_Email. The formula I tried was: lookup("hr_import, "EMAIL", Requestor_Email, "ID") but it just says "loading" and doesn't return a value. Any ideas how I might fix this? Thanks!
Hi,I'm facing an issue with Calculated values.I have a control where the formula is set to a Multi-line textbox (RTF) named on my form.There's history here, but basically the textbox will be hidden when the form is LIVE but for now I'm showing it here for demonstration purposes.When I View the form, everything in the calculated value control (on the left) renders perfectly, as expected with line breaks etc.However, when putting the form into edit mode, the calculated value loses all the line breaks, seemingly ignoring the HTML <br> in the multi line text box (on the right).Is this expected behaviour do we know, if so any way around it? I've already spent many hours on this form and this current solution is a workaround of another issue that I found that Nintex won't support us on because it involves javascript. I thought I'd try the community before going for support (and counselling). Thanks in advance anyone who can help.
Hello all, one of my office 365 list workflows on sharepoint went haywire and could not be terminated. It was suspended and went on an deleted the workflow itself. This brought me two terminated workflows with a deleted association. I have since deleted the list the workflow was attributed to. However since then I cannot save or publish any workflows on this subsite (it works on other sites though). I get the following error:Error publishing workflow. The request was cancelled by an event receiver. If the problem persists, contact Nintex support, and quote:Correlation ID: 795f7a45-e2bc-475a-bb11-4504457b80dfTenant ID: 5b268d57-2a6f-4e04-b0de-6938583d5ebcTime (UTC): 2021-12-14 11:55:15 Any ideas?
Last week the form stopped opening in either new or edit mode in Edge, also unable to view in Preview mode, when I switch to IE the form works as normal. There are no calculated fields and only 2 rules which work fine.
I have 2 lists in same site, listA and listB. listA has a wf named "workflowA"(original wf). I exported workflowA , imported it to listB(which is in same site). I named the new wf of listB as "workflowB"(imported wf).Now when I create item in listB , workflowA(original wf) also gets triggered. Ideally on workflowB(importedwf) shoud have triggered. "workflowA" is nowhere connected to listB. If we export and import workflow to same site but different lists, will it create any issue?
No Matter what i do I cannot get a Form to Save or Publish I just get a XML errorÂ

I have a workflow that has a state machine that has three run if actions under the third state. One run if is supposed to run if in the form a check box is checked true for enforcement signature is needed. One run if action if the Director Signature needed is checked and one run if action if neither is chosen. If enforcement is chosen then it goes to the Enforcement state, director to the director state and neither to go to Commissioner for signature. For some reason all of these run instead of the one that should be running.
Hi  I have list A where I’m creating the workflow, where I have a multi select field that I need to do a look up against list B against the individual selected values. Then return the result into another multi select list. Thanks 🙂
I struggled for hours until I figured out - if the list is named "Test" something, you cannot do anything. You can try to create the workflow, the window opens, but nothing works. No action adding, properties of workflow cannot be saved (dialog is displayed but not closed unless cancelled) etc. If the list is exported and imported with another name that does not start with "test" everything works.Now why would anyone create the list named "Test" in the first place... well, let us start with the testproof or to be more precise "Testnachweis" in German for collecting the daily info about the corona tests for example...Environment - SharePoint 2013, Windows 11, Edge in IE mode and Firefox - same behavior
Nintex Workflow - populate date in form when another form field is one of several selections... I have two workflows created for a Nintex form SharePoint help desk - each workflow is set to populate a different form "date" field based on selections in another form field.  It is working... sort of.... for some reason, they are both populating the current date, regardless of whether or not the criteria is actually met for both workflows. So, for example: I work a ticket in the help desk, select one of several "closed" statuses - the "closed date" field is populating today's date when I hit save. That's great - that's what I wanted to happen... BUT the other date field ("date transferred") is ALSO populating today's date, but this is the field set up on my second workflow and it shouldn't be populating since I didn't select any of the selections for that second field (nothing should even be triggering that workflow, since the field selection needs to be "transferred"). Does this make sens
I have a Nintex Workflow (on-prem) with a workflow start form containing a date/time field. The date/time field is configured to display date only. When the workflow runs, Nintex is changing the default time from 12:00 AM to the local time as defined in the site's regional settings. This seems like a bug, i.e. the user enters 12/8/2021 12:00 AM and the workflow proceeds with a different value! I confirmed that the default SharePoint list form does not do this. Does anybody know if Nintex forms always did this or if this is a new bug? Â
