Finding where Nintex Forms are used?

Probably a stupid question, I'm trying to find the best way to see where Nintex forms are being used.  I see in analytics I can find where the workflows are being used but not the forms.  Am I missing something?

Workflow based on field value changing

Hi everyone.  I recently created a workflow which sends out notifications when the Status field on an item is updated to "Executed" or "Lost".  It's working great except for one thing: if someone goes into an item that already has one of those two values in its status field and changes something else, when they hit submit it kicks off the workflow again.  I know this is because I made the start of the workflow conditional on the status being equal to "Executed" or "Lost", but I want it to only send out notifications when the item is first updated to either of those values.  If someone goes in later and adds text or changes another field, I don't want the workflow to run again, as it is only meant to notify people when the Status field changes.  So if someone changes something but the Status field remains "Executed" for example, I don't want it to send out another notification on that item.   I hope this makes sense!  Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Using connectors with a List Form web part

Has anyone been able to achieve this dynamically using a query from the current item? Basically, I'm trying to embed the form of a document set content type, onto the document set welcome page. This is so the users can see the form and the contents of the document set in one place.  I've been able to achieve this by using the list form web part, however I can't get it to dynamically display the content of the current document set. I've tried using the below set three web parts within the document set welcome page:List form. Connected to: App web part of the current document library. Connected to: Query String (URL) filterThe last one successfully gets the ID of the current document set. However, the middle web part is being automatically filtered by the current document set, therefore just showing me the contents of the document set again. This sort of makes sense and appears to be by SharePoint design, but it means the form won't pick up the correct list item document set to show.  Un

assign flexi task to user who originally delegated the flexi task after the delegator answers

Hey Guys, First time posting to this amazing community. I need a little bit of a hand. I have the initiator add a couple people(Participant1, Participant2, Participant3) to a form which then uses a couple Flexi task's (flexitask1, flexitask2, flexitask3) in that order for them to review and comment. flexitask1 gets sent to Participant1 - after participant1 answers - flexitask2 gets sent to Participant2 - after participant2 answers - flexitask3 gets sent to Participant3 Participant1 thinks someone(Participant1.5) needs to see the form and make a comment before Participant2. The solution to this is Delegate the flexi task. - that is no problem. My issue is - I need Participant1 to receive a flexi task after the delegation to Participant1.5. So if participant1 delegated the flexi task then the process would be FlexiTask1 - FlexiTask1.5 - FlexiTask2 - FlexiTask3 Is there any easy way to achieve this? How would I see weather or not the task was delegated to someone else in order to start th

Link between content types Nintex forms in display mode?

Hi I am posting this question because I need some help.So what I wanted to do was a product order system. Were the user/buyer clicks on new item. Then get to choose some options. Depending on the chooses the user is then presented with a "Next form" button. This leads to a chain of customized Nintexed forms one for each type of products. So depending on which product the user choose, they be will direct a different content type and a different form. Once they are through all the forms in that chain they get to the "Submit" form and submit the request to buy a product with their specifications. A Nintex workflow then sets the item to read for the creator, so they cant change their request while we are working on it. But! They sometimes want to go in to see what they actually selected.So what I want is for the user to be able to see what they have selected during their order, and I am open for any solution. But because the number of options is so many over different forms I am reluctant

Form is allowing submission with required fields blank

I have a submission form with two tabs.  Unconnected Choice Buttons control whether one panel is displayed or the other.  The SharePoint list has a few required fields which should never be blank.  On the form, these are all on the first tab.  I'm finding that the form is allowed to be submitted with the required fields blank as long as the second tab is selected when it's submitted. How do I make the required fields required even when hidden?  (All the previous similar topics seem to be for the opposite problem.)
