Nintex for SharePoint

I am using NWAdmin to delete WF history list data, and it's not removing the list items. I'm purposely trying this on a small WF history list. And yes, I am trying this on a Nintex workflow history list. Here is the script/command I am running. NWAdmin.exe –o PurgeHistoryListData -siteUrl http://SiteURL  

Hi, I've got a simple problem where I need to ensure only 1 choice is selected from all the multiple drop downs (which are each connected to Sharepoint Choice fields). So I only want 1 to be selected per form submission.have tried XOR, isNullOrEmpty, and none of them seem to work. They all seem to pass through without enforcing the single choice across the above controls. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wring or what I should be using to make this work? Many thanks,Dim

Is there a way to update / populate SharePoint library's properties from a sharepoint list? I have a List A and I setup a workflow to generate  a word  document when a new item created in List A.  The generated word document is stored in a document library B.  Now I wish to update all the columns/ fields from List A to Library B properties.  However, the action "Office 365 update item list" won't allow to do it, is there a way to populate fields from SharePoint list to library properties.  Please help.   

Ideal solution: Internal Nintex form built within SharePoint site gets started by Internal employee, but is able to get edited by vendor who is an external party.  I have built the form within Nintex and added a trigger within the workflow so that if the vendor is an external vendor, then an email that contains the Nintex cloud form URL gets sent over to them . The form was mimic' d within Nintex Cloud as well. I cannot figure out how I can make it so that the original form started on SharePoint is the one the external vendor will see on the email notification link.  How do I make it so that the form is linkable within the email notification, editable and accessible to the external parties and the data submitted by this external party be captured by the original form and the SharePoint List?

I am attempting to apply the latest update for SharePoint 2019, Nintex Workflow and Forms.  During the install process, deploying the nintexworkflow2019core.wsp solution fails.  I am installing this on the Central Admin server with the Farm Account running as local administrator running the update as administrator. Any clues as to why this is happening? The error reported is: Solution failed to deployed, reason: SP19APP1 : Error: The copying of this file failed: BinNintexWorkflowStartNintex.Workflow.Start.Service.exe.The process cannot access the file 'C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedWeb Server Extensions16BinNintexWorkflowStartNintex.Workflow.Start.Service.exe' because it is being used by another process.SP19APP1 : The process cannot access the file 'C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedWeb Server Extensions16BinNintexWorkflowStartNintex.Workflow.Start.Service.exe' because it is being used by another process.SP19WEB1 : Error: The copying of this file failed: BinNintex

Hi all, looking for some help:I'd like to create a document set via Workflow in SP 2019 that uses two variables in it's naming, set by the user during the creation: - Date and Time set by user- Name set by user via a drop-down list I'd also like to know if it's possible to select the default files in a document set by variable from a single large document library . For example:If the document set name (dropdown above) is Meeting1, then the files from a document library with Meeting1 in a data column (or with Meeting1 in the filename, if that is simpler) will populate the new document set.If the document set name (from the dropdown) is Meeting2, then the files from a document library with Meeting2 in a data column will populate the new document set.

Greetings, I have a list with a multiple line text field.  In that text field is a document name and that text has a link attached to it.  Now I need to go back through my entire list and change the links attached to the text fields.  I cannot figure out how to lookup the link attached to a text field.  Tried query list, build a string and set a variable but I don't see any way to get either the text and the associated link or both.  Perhaps a web service but I'm not sure which call I should try. Thanks for your help

I have a Nintex form in SP 2016. There is a list lookup field that allows user to select multiple check boxes. However, I only want the user to check only one checkbox. How do I validate that?   I want to do the validation within the Nintex form - not using a workflow.   Thanks in advance.   Mayank

I have one scenario where I need to give permission to a SharePoint group to put any task which is assigned to any other person or group on hold at any stage. They will not be part of approval process. Later on they can remove the on hold and workflow will be continue from the same stage where it was on Hold.

Hi,  Migrated workflows are pointing still to 'old' environment when the error notification is coming.New ones created from scratch are perfectly fine and all links are going to new location.Why migrated ones are still referencing to previous environment?How to fix it? 

I am trying to build out workflow logic that assignes a to-do task.  On that task, I have a person and group column that the task owner will specify employees that are bidding on open internal positions.  I then plan to input these names into an email notification action that willl be sent out to our HR team. I've been able to pull the values from this person and group column by using a Query List action.  However this is pulling their account name rather than there display name.  I can't seem to find an option to format the data as display name in this scenario like I can with person/group columns on the form the workflow is running on. Does anyone know of a method to obtain Display names from a person and group column on a workflow task?

Hello I am trying to get Display Names from another site list's multi-person column.  I have Nintex Workflow where I use Query List with CAML query to get a list of supervisors and managers for a department.  <Query><Lists><List ID="{23BC57C8-2E5C-462E-BFCE-EDFE10046D36}" /></Lists><ViewFields><FieldRef Name="Manager_x0020_Person" /><FieldRef Name="Supervisor_x0020_Person" /></ViewFields><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name="Department" /><Value Type="String">{ItemProperty:Department1}</Value></Eq></Where></Query> I store the results in two separate variables, var_Supervisors and var_Managers (I tried a single line of text, multi and collection). As expected the results are saved in format i:0#.w|<domain><username>;i:0#.w|<domain><username>.I want to use the results in e-mail notification but instead of userIDs, I would like to have Display Names.  I tried to use For Each action

Hi, I have a bizarre problem concerning the dateAddMonths runtime function in a calculated field. I have a date field which is called HB-EffectiveDate and that sets the start date. I want a second date to be calculated based upon HB-Duration, a text box (set as integer), whereby the resulting date should be: HB-EffectiveDate + number of months set by varDuration (which is basically HB-Duration).There is a checkbox HB-SinglePayment-YN, that determines if there a single payment (i.e. no months to add). So, when checked it will just return the same as HB-EffectiveDate. The formula I have for this in the calculated field is: If(HB-SinglePayment-YN==True,formatDate(HB-EffectiveDate,"dd/MM/yyyy"),formatDate(dateAddDays(HB-EffectiveDate,varDuration),"dd/MM/yyyy")) However, the value shown in the calculated field is completely erratic. Just adding 1 into HB-Duration sends the calculated date from 01/09/2021 to 01/10/2027, so it seems to be adding a magnitude of months instead of just 1.I have

I'm looking at a few NuGet packages to control my Nintex workflows (start, stop, publish, ...) on SharePoint from a Third-party application. I'm mostly interested in using the "Nintex.Workflow.2016" package by Nintex, but unfortunately I have not been able to find any documentations for it and none of its classes have any summary to know what they are used for. Dose any one know any NuGet package to recommend or a document for the above package or even a better solution for my problem? Please take a look the screenshot for the package details name Thanks!

hello there,I have a tricky question and I have made an example nintex-form (classic) so I can show you my problem.For my example I have following controls:1. Number (it is a specific number which is unique)2. Every number is assigned to a group of animals3. and every animal has specific values (name, born on, colour) and there can be more than one of its kind (therefore a repeating section)... it is just an example and I couldnt think of something betterimportant: the data of the repeating section is saved to a multiple lines field (I already connected them).   At first I create an item:  and in the list it looks like this:  So what do I want?I have a wiki page and on that page I have a webpart where users can fill out a NEW form (they cant see the list, they can just fill out the form).If a user enters a number (in my example 1)... then via some formulars the values from the list should be autofilled with javascript so that the user can see the animals an then in the repeating sectio

Hello All,I have a 1 custom list with 2 columns: Equipment Type Affected & Equipment Section that I will be using for Cascading drop downs on my classic form.Then on my form they are List Lookups Columns to the list above (drop downs).On my form the Equipment Type Affected - List Lookup - No changes needed but it displays all the duplicate items.On my form the Equipment Section - based on Equipment Type Affected works as planned as I am filtering by the Equipment Type Affected.Has anyone found a way to remove the duplicates from the list look up in the first drop down?I have used this approach in the past with calculated fields and it worked fine but not with cascading drop downs.lookup("Change Request/Issue DD","ID",EquipmentTypeAffected,"Equipment Section") Any help would be appreciated.

Hello! I am trying to create a reminder workflow email 30 days before a item is due and would like this to repeat annually. In my Sharepoint list, I currently have:Owner Name Due Date Document Name Each Document Name will have a different Due Date and Owner Name I have created a workflow that sends the reminder emails 30 days before the due date similar to this: https://community.nintex.com/t5/Community-blogs/Site-Workflow-Document-Review-Date-Approaching-Reminders/ba-p/79279  However, I need some help approaching how to manage the annual reminder i.e. if my due date for 1 document is currently set to October 1 2021, how can I ensure that I get a reminder again in September 2022? I would like to be able to automate this without having to change the due date each time. Any ideas? 

Hello Community,I am hoping that someone could help me figure out why my State Machine in my workflow keeps looping and looping.First some background information. I am using SharePoint 2013 and Nintex Workflow 2013 both on premise.My workflow is for a PO requisition approval system that I have built against a custom list in SharePoint.In two of the State Machine branches I have nested State Machines, were the PO approval will go to the Director or manager and then to the Finance department if the PO is in budget and over 5K. Please see the screen shot of the first level of the state machine below:In the screen shot below I have captured all of the Approve and the More Info branches of the second level of the nested State Machine:Below is the screen shot of the rest of the Reject branch of the second level nested State Machine that is also pictured above:This all looks well and when I got the looping of the state machine I examined the Workflow process and found that the workflow looks

Hello,I have a state machine with 4 stages after every stage I do have a change state to kick to the next stage.  I have attached screen shots but if they are to small let me know I will try to send bigger ones. the State machine will go through all  4 stages and give me the end status under "in progress" in the workflow, but then it will kick off the first email from the first stage right after.  I have added change state with end state machines and end workflow at the end of the 4th stage on all branches. Not sure what I am doing wrong here.  In stage 1 I do have a parallel action to kick off 2 different assign flexi tasks but this is kicking off the 3 branch.  So I have a set a condition then off the one condition is the parallel action.
