Hi ​@pawankolaki 

I hope you are doing well.

I am working on nintex workflow cloud and I want to generate a copy of the submitted form using the generate document action. I have a repeating section in another repeating section. 

I have configured the generate document action but I can only tag the outer repeating section fields unto my form template . Which means the document generated will not have information about the repeating section inside. 

Can you please advise on a way around like, as I would like the generated document to have all the information on the submitted form. 

Thank you

    hi ​@Sunita, 

    Hope you are well! My understanding is that Generate document action doesn’t supports nested repeating section at the moment. is it possible to flatten the repeating section?

    Hi ​@pawankolaki 

    Thank you for the reply.

    Sadly, we are unable to flatten the repeating section as the outer repeating section (call it father) is dynamic and it dictates the inner repeating section (call it Son). Unless we can make the inner repeating section to be dynamic but can still be conditioned on the dynamic father repeating section?

    Thank you

    hi ​@Sunita , Perhaps we can discuss this further at the same time we are discussing the other issue?
