I have a project request workflow that I am currently building. As the project requests leave the initiator, the forms in the flexitasks are altered and attachments are added and then handed off to the next person. My problem is, when the form moves from one workflow to the other, it is not writing the attachments to the attachment column. If I choose the list item directly from the list the workflows are running on, I can upload attachments without a problem. It is only in the flexitask that the attachments control in the Nintex builder does not save the documents or attachments to the attachments column. Is there an easy fix for this? Each step along the way, the user needs to be able to upload attachments and they need to be able to write to the attachments column and be saved. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Know a fix Thank you, Cody Allison
HI All, I cant find a post about this, but then again I'm not 100% what I'm looking at half the time anyway. I have a list that's used as production handovers every 12 hours. Using Nintex forms we have mostly choice drop down boxes for production items. A lot of them are asking how long something has run or how many products have come off a line so the choices are set as numbers, 1,2,3,4 etc. Is there anyway of collecting this data for a monthly report and have an email send out saying plant 1 ran for x numbers of hours and produced x number of products?Thanks in advance
Hello EveryoneWe are using Nintex 2013 and 'm facing an issue about user rightsI have a stakeholders list on each site attached to each projects, I created an approbation workflow to approve some items in the Risks list, the workflow reads the person in the stakeholders list and for some of them, it sends them an approval requestBut some of my users are not in the site group member so when they try to open the approval url, they get the following message: Sorry, something went wrong Cannot find the task. It may have been deleted, or the workflow cancelled. I tried to change the items right in the workflow but I can add full rights nothing changed, the same error messageSo I guess to be able to approve a change request, my stakeholder has to be part of my team member right? If it is the case, is there a way to achieve that via a Workflow? Because I can't do that manually (every day more than 50 sites are created) and I don't want to deploy a event receiver due to the amounts of internal
Hello I have a scenario where a Web Request is made to get an AccessToken.The result is then stored into a [variable] named StoreResult as a [Multiline of Text]. The result is pretty long and amongst the lines, there is this I am interested at:{"access_token":"QS27hDdFvfqTPSFElG0vH8Y0h7Eu9Gjt", How would I be able to extract only the access token value?From my understanding, I need to convert the Multiline of Text into a Collection value?Then use the collection to extrat the data?May sound good in theory but stuck in practially 😞Please advise...
I am trying to update a Yes/No Column from SharePoint via the update document in Nintex Workflow and can not get it to work correctly. I have tried every thing that comes up in a search here. Any ideas? or screen shots of how I can get this to work? (I have about 15 Yes/No columns to show on the form in Word)
Hello Community, we have a request that in a form with a field Responsible the name of the user is automatically defined without input and also may not be changed. A Person or Group field was created on the list and in the Nintex form Current User was entered as the default value. Under Appearance No was selected for Enabled so that the value cannot be changed (attached a screenshot). Problem: when a new entry is created then you can see the name of the user in the field and not change it, so as wanted. But when saving the form no entry is made in this field. It is just empty in the list although the field itself is set to require a value. By saving the form there is no error message. Is this a bug or wrong setting?
I am working in a Nintex O365 Responsive Form. I want to calculate the Total Time for Project based on the Time Spent Per Task. The calculations for Time Spent Per Task are in a repeating section. I have a calculated value control for Time Spent Per Task. The formula is Minutes/60 + Hours. How can I get a grand total for all the Time Spent Per Task entries to appear in the Total Time for Project control? Thank you.
Hello Community, I am implementing Document Management (approval, reviewal, archival) feature in our 0365 environment and as per plan, the main business logic should go in the Component Workflow. Now, once published any update to that workflow (by deleting and publishing a new .nwp file) will break the calling workflows (list/library workflows). To fix this I have to open the calling workflow (library wf) and select the component workflow again and re-publish the calling workflow.Now my question is, how to retroactively update and publish the Component workflow, without having to go and republish calling workflows? *all of this publishing is what I am doing programmatically, through CSOM PowerShell code. Thanks
I was playing around with the nintex forms webservice yesterday and encountering some error. I am using the "web request" action to call the web service but it returns an error "Request failed with status: Method Not Allowed.". The same error occurs when I use "Call web service". Is the web service not useable on nintex workflow functions? I haven't tried the powershell and .net approach yet as we want to keep everything in the nintex environment.here's a link to the forms web service
I have SharePoint 2013 on premise classic view and in the Label control settings, when I click on the Link button, nothing appears. Is there a work around?
I am in SharePoint 2016. I created a Nintex library workflow. I placed a web request control. In the URL, I choose Item Url and entered my username and pwd. I am the site collection admin. My idea is to connect to the library. URL* (common:ItemUrl) Username: mshyam Password: ****** When I test the connection, I get Invalid URL format What should I type in the Url. Thanks so much!
I submitted a Help type of post last month, and got a message that it was marked as spam. Looks like others have the same complaint. WHY?
Dear All, I am trying to export and import list workflow (created in 2010 version), recently migrated from 2010 to 2016, i am getting below error, pleae refer below screenshot. Regards,
Ok, I'm trying to setup a date validation to prevent someone from forward dating the control. Essentially the value must be less than or equal to the current date. I've setup a date control and set to Date only. It is connected to a date column in the list. I then created the following rule on the control:The rule works, but for some reason I cannot put in today's date in my control. It for some reason invalidates the control thus preventing me from saving it. This validation needs to be in place whether or not form is new or edit mode. Am I missing something?
I've got an issue with responsive forms. My external users cannot edit and save forms after migration to SP2019 On Prem. I have an external test account that I am using to troubleshoot this. When I add that test account directly to the root site with full control it works fine. But adding all my external users with full control is obviously not a good solution. Is this a bug with Nintex?
Hi,I'm using a Single line Textbox for a currency field in a classic nintex form, which works well on the New Form.My regional settings (fr-CH) on the SharePoint site are used to verify my field (fr-CH uses "." as delimiter)However, when opening an Edit Form, the field converts the "." into "," and when I try to save, the form validation of the field wields an error, saying the format is not correct.How can I change the format used in the Edit Form?Thank you in advance for your response.Luzi

"Javascript On Repeating Section"
Hi I've been trying different ways to parse xml from a repeating section that is within a repeating section but I've hit a wall. I've posted the full xml as jpg and the actions and their details as a word file with screenshots. Sorry if that is not how you're supposed to do it I'm new to this. Anyway I followed this solution from here but to no avail:https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint/Get-data-out-of-Nested-Repeating-Section-and-HTML/m-p/97283
