Nintex for SharePoint

Hello,  We have Nintex for SharePoint 2019, version 5.2.0.0 and I can't find the option of adding Custom Javascript code on Classic forms. Has this been deprecated? 

Hello together,   I have the problem that I retrieve values from a managed metadata field. It looks like value | adgfbn-fjkdjfkd-fkdslk I want to extract only the left value via Regex. I tried several things. I put the pattern to [|] or [|]   But so far no success. Could you help me with this!   Best regards   Matthias

Hi everyone I was wondering if it's possible to connect to an Azure SQL database from a Nintex Workflow running on Sharepoint 2013 on premise. I have multiple workflows where I connect to an on premise MS SQL server, but cannot get this to work wit Azure SQL. I've tried using many different connection strings, but keep getting "Unexpected SQL error occured". I know that the account I use has access to the database, so there might be other issues like firewall settings. However, before I go changing anything to the firewall, can anyone tell me if it is even possible to to connect to Azure SQL from Nintex 2013?

I am semi familiar with how SP works. Bear with me. Please note, I am not allowed to use SharePoint Designer. 1 - Can I create a workflow on my list to automatically SAVE any documents and data to another library with the exact columns? OR2 - Can I create a library with a button that says "Add Request & Supporting Documentation" and have it open in Nintex form view? I see there is a Nintex form option in my library but need help configuring this.

I have a site workflow that updates an item in a list, then I want it to publish a specific wiki page in a library on the same site.  If I was using a list workflow, I could use the Set Approval Status action, but this action is not available in site workflows.  Is there a way to publish the wiki page that doesn't require credentials?  I'm trying to avoid the Call Web Service action because the password for any credentials I supply will expire, causing the workflow to error. I tried using the Update Item and Update Multiple Items actions, but these don't allow updating the Approval Status field for the wiki page.

Fairly complex form with many rules, fields, panels, controls.  Went to launch form designer after doing a save and close, and now it hangs on Please Wait message.  Checked with multiple browsers, rebooted, etc.  Simpler forms on same site still editable in design tool.  The complex form still runs with last published version. Thoughts on methods to trouble shoot?  I am not an admin, but can engage admin easily. Thanks!  

I am using Nintex Forms in SharePoint 2016 on premise. Do have a form that needs a "People Pickers" Don't see that option in Nintex. Any ideas? Thanks Mayank

Hi all,   I am trying to pull a string that was input into a text field in my Nintex form, directly into another SLT editable field. To give context, An 8 digit number is input as a string in one field, and this number is the first 8 digits required for a longer string - so I am trying to pull those first 8 directly into the second field to minimize user effort. I am using the Classic Form version.   I am assuming this will be achievable with some JS if anybody has any skeleton code they can share?   Thanks

I am in SharePoint 2016. Want to create a custom list: product.It will have two columns Product Type and ID. Using the form, the user shall only enter the product type. But I want to automatically generate an ID for each product type starting with 1. The ID will not be displayed in the form.   What action do I need to use in the workflow? Thanks a bunch:).   Mayank

I currently have flows in Nintex that run when the list item is created. Once the item is created in the list, two things happen:   1 That it tries to start the flow, but does not execute any action and gets the following error:   [Flow Name] failed to start.   2 The flow starts, the tasks are created for the users but at the moment the first task is approved, the flow produces the following error:   The [Flow Name] workflow was canceled by System Account.

I am in SharePoint 2016 and using Nintex forms. Want to make a field required and prompt the user a message. Do NOT want to make the field required in SharePoint list.  I created a validation rule on the save button and also on the column field itself.  isNullOrEmpty(fieldname) is not working.    What are my options? Thanks a bunch.   Mayank    

All,On my form (Nintex 2013)I have a list lookup control connected to a separate list within my site.This list has 2 columns: title and description. The list lookup shows the title values.I have a multi line text box.If a value is selected from the list lookup control how can the multi line text box be populated with the description field data and still be editable?If list lookup control value is not selected the multi line text box will still be used, just not prepopulated. I'm wanting to do this without a workflow as the end users will select a value from the lookup list and then want to start writing in the multi line text box.ThanksAndrew

Hello AllWe use SP2016 onprem with Nintex 2016 Workflow v.4.6I am looking for a way to use the Web Request to authenticate to a service via REST APPI and OAuth. Is this possible?The provider we use [Dracon] have stated this: In order to obtain a token, you need to send a POST request to our token endpoint https://[host]/oauth/token POSTHeader:Authorization: Basic $client_authBody: grant_type = passwordusername = $user_namepassword = $password You need an OAuth client to authenticate – for simplicity, we used the client "DRACOON Legacy scripting support". Once the flow works correctly, it can be updated to a custom own app.The variable $client_auth​ consists of a Base64-encoded

On a producion SP2010 site I've workflow, created by a predecessor, which when opening in de workflow designer shows a red bar on top with the error "Error Object reference not set to an instance of an object":Other workflows just open fine in de designer. Also notice that in this screenshot the workflow's version is missing. Which does show in the Workflow Inventory (it's 7.0).Is it safe to save/publish it in order to resolve this? Or does it require some other solution?Kind regards,Jean-Pierre

Hello all.While the Administrator can be allowed to set delegation for another user, strangely he is not allowed to change or delete it. Or at least I can't find how this is done.Thanks,Dimiter

  Hi,My question is about the Timer Job "Workflow".I have some Nintex Workflows which are set to be executed immediatly and I'm aware that all WF (nintex's includes) are pushed into a queue.My default Workflow Timer Job is set to be executed every 5 min.Question : Does it mean that my queue will be empty every 5 min so that all my WF are executed ?I tested on my 3 tier farm, and my nintex WF are executed immediatly and not when the Workflow Timer Job is executed.Question : What is the link between Workflow Timer Job and the delay of execution of Nintex WF ?Thanks

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

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.
