Hi Team,

I am working with Nintex Automation Cloud (NAC) forms and have created a custom plugin that fetches user/customer data from an API and displays it in a searchable dropdown.

When a user selects a record from the dropdown, the plugin successfully returns the selected data in JSON format.

Example output:

[
{
"CustomerName": "AGILE ARBOR PTY LTD",
"CustomerNo": "1059530",
"PhoneNo": "02 6334 2544",
"Address": "344 LIMEKILNS ROAD"
}
]

However, I am facing an issue while trying to use this output inside the form controls.

My requirement:

  • When a user selects a record from the plugin, I want to:

    • Display the selected values in other form controls (e.g., Customer Name, Phone, Address)

    • Save the JSON data into a SharePoint column
