Hi,

 

I created a custom connector using xtensions. I was able to test that it works because I am able to call the connector in my flow then I log the results to the instance details. However, when I create the data look up in my start form. It is returning with No Data Provided. Based on the testing from calling the connector in the flow I can see that I am returning back the expected results so I know the connection is working. 

The custom connector I created is for CRM Dynamics. The out of the box CRM connector is not available for creating a Data Look up so I had to create it in xtensions. 

I have no idea if this is your problem, but I had a similar issue with a Smartsheet xtension I made. The xtension worked fine in the workflow itself, but not in the form. If I’m remembering right, some of the values for the lookup value or display value were null, and that caused the entire thing to not work correctly. I think it also had the “No Data Provided” message. 

I’m not sure if this would help, but you may find something useful if you bring up devtools in the browser (F12), then go to the network tab. Finally, go to your form and attempt to load the lookup.  There may be some information recorded there about what you’re browser is receiving back from the xtension. That may at least confirm your xtension is working to an extent, but that the Nintex form is having an issue making use of it. 

​@bsikes thank you for the suggestion. I did check dev tools and I was able to see the data was coming back from the xtension in my data look up. I did end up figuring out the solution as the json returned by CRM had a slightly different structure than expected. I was able to update the swagger json for the xtension and it worked.
