Hi,Do we have SDK for SharePoint 2019 to create custom actions in Nintex workflow?  

Getting error when publishing the workflow in nintex. soap:ServerServer was unable to process request. ---> Failed to publish workflow: This feature has been temporarily disabled.

Good day, I have a workflow in Nintex 2019 and it has to pause 5 minutes then send email notification, however nothing seems to be wrong but the notification are not sent, when I check the idle time, it’s always increasing which I think that could be the cause, every time a user complain of not receiving email notifications, I always have to restart the workflow and it works, is there a way to make the idle time less or stop the workflow from idling for too long, the below is a screenshot of a  workflow that has not sent through notification, the pausing time has already lapsed and notification are not sent.  

Nintex 2016/SP 2016 on prem - Need to set the destination CT for a DocGen PDF (Output file URL is stored in a variable) routes/moves the PDF to the destination document library. docgen works great then we build a string for the MMD field call web svc to set that MMD field Update fields for CT in destination library…. this is the issue. Each configuration attempt receives an error in the WF.Narrowed it down to WHERE statement in the ‘Update Item’ action. without the pdf list id (we used to get when using muhimbi action to convert to PDF) how do we configure so that the item knows which item?  the ID will be different. *have done this successfully with Muhimbi action - in that solution, we used the List Item ID that was stored in a variable in the muhimbi action.  the D

Hello, My form include a Multi line controller, I would like to remove the scrollbar and allow dynamic size of the controller. To do this I created a css class auto-expand-textarea, see below. It works but my controller is overlapping other controllers of the form. Resize at startup is Yes.I spent hours trying to solve this, chatgpt also, including javascript… still no answer :/ anyone else in the same situation? .custom-form {     display: block;     width: 100%; /* Le formulaire prend toute la largeur */     overflow: hidden; /* Empêche les débordements */ }.custom-layout {     display: flex;     flex-direction: column;     gap: 15px; /* Espacement entre les contrôles pour éviter les chevauchements */ }.auto-expand-textarea {     min-height: 50px;

Following a number of years of heavy usage in one of our applications based on Nintex for SharePoint we are noticing a degradation of performance in that particular SharePoint site. Upon further investigation we found that the root cause of this issue is the amount of even receivers stored at site level (around 60,000)  The followng query gives us the result shown further down SELECT         class,count(*)    FROM        [dbo].[EventReceivers]            group by class    order by class  The name column (Not displayed above) shows “Created By Nintex Workflow Start Action “ and the class column (as displayed above) shows  “Nintex.Workflow.Activities.Services.WorklfowCompletedEventReceiver”Is there a way of purging these unwanted event receivers especially for items whose w

How do we get all results to be stored in a variable so that we can later use that variable to send out an email to multiple email addresses?In a Site WF running dailyThere are multiple Sql Queries configured the same (just on different views in db) pulling back multiple email (contacts) Storing in a collection variable - in the WF History, we can see only one email address is being stored (there should be several) When testing the query in the wf, we get multiple results - SQL Query is a successwe want the collection variable to take each email address and separate it by a comma or a semicolon - for emailing purposes.

Hello!I’m struggling with grabbing a value from a repeating section (Nintex O365 forms / Responsive forms) and applying it to a text field.. When I input a date in the “from Date” field of the repeating section, I have a variable that outputs to a label below but I would like to apply that value in the label to a text field that is not in a repeating section to capture in case it is changed in the future.Is that possible? If so, how? Thanks 

I have Nintex form with a Choice column that has multiple checkbox enabled where the user can make multiple selections:  [] Repetitive [] Non-RepetitiveI want to have another field "WireType" require a value if 2 checkboxes above is selected values. I created a validation rule below but it doesn't work. What's the correct rule to apply? I'm appreciated for your help.WireType == "Repetitive" && WireType == "Non-Repetitive" &&isNullOrEmpty(Amount) I also tried this rule and it doesn’t work:contains (WireType, "Repetitive") && contains(WireType, "Non-Repetitive") && isNullOrEmpty({Self})

I have a “Today” column in Sharepoint that needs to be set at the current date, I understand the [Today] does not work in the calculated column formula. I have read that you can create a workflow that will set a “today” column to today’s date, will modify the workflow to repeat, pausing for 12 hours at a time, so that we always have “Today” as today’s actual date. I have tried to do that and it does not seem to be working correctly or at all. Not sure what I am doing wrong, is there any Nintex How-to’s I can follow to set this up to work?  I need it to calculate and update 30-60-90 day before expiration for certifications.   Side note, we had migrated our site from 2013 to 2019 and it seems to be stuck on the today date that it was moved. Not sure if that caused this to not work or if there is a glitch/change in 2019.  It seemed to have worked before.  All workflows have been republished. 

I am using Nintex form in SharePoint 2016. I have a drop down field in the Nintex form that pulls out values from a look up list.For instance, there is a field called, “Vendor” in my main list and it pulls out Vendor Names from a list called, “Vendor.” The Vendor field in the Main list is a drop down (choice field). In the look up list there is a field called, “Obsolete”, which is a Yes/no field.I need to pull out values based on the following criteria,“Select all values where the Vendor list where Obsolete = No.”Do I need some kind of script for that? What are the options. Thanks in advance. Regards,  Mayank Shyam

Hi everyone,I have added a "List Lookup" control to my Nintex Form and named it "list_lookup." I have also created a rule that always runs with some dummy logic (if "a" == "a") to add the selected value from "list_lookup" to "text_field1" in the form.Here is what I've observed in "text_field1":If I select option1, option1 is visible. If I select option1 and then option2, only option1 is visible. If I select option1, deselect it, and then select option2, only option1 is visible.I want all selected options to be visible in "text_field1." Can someone help me achieve this?Thanks!

We have users reporting that several Nintex workflows are no longer sending them email notifications they had been receiving last week. We've checked everything we can think of, and we hit a roadblock. The only thing we can't do is open the workflows to edit them. An employee recently left the company, and when trying to open a workflow to edit it, a message appears saying that the user can't be found. It's presenting as if only that user would be allowed to edit the workflows, and unfortunately that is no longer possible. Is there a built-in admin account that has access to all Nintex content regardless of who created it? Is there a setting to enable specified persons overall access? We need these workflows to function properly, or it could cause fiscal issues. We’re running it with SharePoint 2016. Thank you

I am using a Request Approval WF action to send an approval request to a coworker.  I would also like to CC another employee in the same email and have them be able to only view the task form.  I understand they will not be able to approve/deny the request, but I am wondering if it possible for them to be able to view the task form with everything disabled (as usual).After the CC'd employee gets the email, they try to click on the task link and are sent to this:Note: The main approver is able to see and approve the task, but the CC'd employee can't view it at the least.I know that the "You are not authorized to approve this item" verbiage is at the top of the task form when it is anyone but the approver viewing it, but it's showing up here before the CC'd employee even gets to it.Any input helps!Owen
