Nintex for SharePoint

In SP 2016, I want to create a Nintex Workflow. The user shall manually enter a library name. The workflow shall then retrieve all documents and folders of the library and perform some logic. Logic involves updating metadata or field associated with each document   What are my options. I was thinking of using CAML query. But then how do I use CAML query to update a field.    Any ideas would be appreciated.   Mayank

Hey,i would change CSS Attributes or SHOW/HIDE a html line via Javascript. In that case:I have a RichTextField in NintexForms (i need this in a richtextfield) , html like: <div class="HEIDI">Hide this</div>or<span class="JAVASCRIPTID">Hide this</span>  CSS in Nintex Forms if CSS is neccessary: .HEIDI {display: block;} So if my list variable "LIST_blocki" is true the html should be blocked like display: none; I´m pretty sure i need Javascript for this and I want realise this with a Javascript ID in the html field. So i should work with a <span class="JAVASCRIPTID"> ? Can some one explain how this gonna work ?Huge thanks!

How do I add 16 pages to a Nintex form? Via the configuration menu I only can add 10 pages in Nintex Modern designer.

Hello,I have taken over a workflow that has been poorly designed using a 1 year pause action before the item is deleted...Because the workflow runs as the initiator but permissions are changed during workflow exectuion removing contribute access to the initiator, after the 1 year pause the workflow gets into error (no right to delete item).I have fixed the workflow for new submissions and used powershell to change permissions on items with running workflows that are in pause state so items can be deleted when they reach the date, but the older workflows are in error (a couple of hundred).My question: is there an relatively easy way to do a mass update on this list to end the running workflows in error and delete the related items ? I don't see myself manually ending all these workflows one by one. Thank you   

Hi there Our environement consists of Nintex Workflow for Sharepoint 2013. We recently upgraded Nintex to a newer version: Current version installed is 3.6.2.0 The database version is 3.2.6.3 We hadn't updated nintex in a long time, previous version was 3.0.8.0 (July 2014).  Overall, upgrading went smoothly and nothing broke, except that the workflow preview page has become extremely slow (when it's even working). Up to 2 min to load a single page. Sometime I cannot edit an existing workflow and IE would simply crash or become unresponsive.  The page is _layouts/15/NintexWorkflow/Preview.aspx?ListId=XX&Running=false&ItemId=XX&WorkflowId=XX&mode=Runtime&InstanceId=XX The performance issue happens on every workflow, on every web site and every list item. I have looked at the UPS log but cannot find any errors in particular, I have also ran a SQL profiler in an attempt to identify if the slowness could be coming form there but no luck so far. I hope someone can give me

Hi, I am using a rich text editor field within a repeating section. Is it possible to get this repeating section to autopopulate a rolling count of repeating section? For example: 1st rich text - Job 12nd rich text - Job 2 3rd rich text - Job 3and so on... Any ideas?

I have bunch of documents libraries in a SP 2016 site. Need to write a workflow that will allow the user to choose or type a library name. After that, the workflow needs to query all documents and folders in the library and perform some logic on each one of them.   I intend to use collections and for each loop. How exactly do I query all documents and folders in a library. Would it be Query list or something else?   Appreciate your help in advance.   Mayank

Generally speaking the first list will contain one row while second many rows related to one and only row in the firs one. This is like in one-to-many in relational database. The picture is representing the case that I would like to achieve using customer and customer rentals as an example. Now i would like to have a possibility :- store and present data in on form- update the list or list while editing- manage access of inputs on the form from list #2 fields depending on choices and person fields. Presently I'm using one list with the multiline column in list#1 for data that I treat as list#2.I used a repeating section on the form connected to multiline column in the list#1 and the values are stored there in xml format. But with this solution when I create a rules on the form, the form stops working - more ov

I cannot edit the workflow without reducing the size, but the workflow is so wide it becomes impossible to read. How do I get the horizontal scrollbar to display? This is for Nintex Workflow not Forms. Thanks You.

Hello, I am currently working on a document-moving workflow and am running into two road blocks and would greatly appreciate some help! Some background: I have a SharePoint list with over 4000 items, all with 1~4 attachments. I want to use a site workflow to move all the attachments into a document library as individual items in one "Go".  Where I am currently: I have been able to create a Workflow on the list level and have successfully got it to move attachments included within that item, but the workflow will only run on the item that I manually start the workflow on. (See attached SS of the list workflow)  My problems: 1) My first problem is that the the workflow is only moving the attachments of the item I manually start the workflow on, even though I have the "For each" action that I assumed would loop through and move go through each item and their attachments.
