Nintex Workflow

I have an enquiry regarding the email issued from Nintex from a given tenant / organisation.Is it possible to (from a given form and workflow) reply to an email sent from Nintex in response to content received in order to start a new workflow process?I.e. A user fills in a form asking to have something sent to them (reports etc).Assigned task sends this request to a nominated user (or group). They can read the saved information and reply back with a text field. This text field is captured and as an action post the assigned task, send email with the ‘REPLY’ embedded.The Workflow ends.THEN the original user receives the response and then decides, no i wanted something else OR files a complaint or something.Can that user ‘reply’ to the email received (permitted a Reply TO) was added to that email which could then interact with Nintex Automation Cloud?

Hi Team,We have a requirement to trigger Nintex from a Salesforce Flow in order to generate a document with merge fields, tables, and related data.However, when creating the Flow in Salesforce (sandbox environment), we are unable to find any Nintex actions available.Could you please confirm if there is any additional setup required on the admin or configuration side to enable Nintex actions in Flow within a sandbox? If so, could you guide us through the necessary steps?Thank you.

Hello, I need to obtain all the field values from a task form and send it to an API.. Few times in the workflow.I was wondering if I could get an usable JSON form of the Task form?At least if I could move all of the controls inside a Repeater, will I be able to get useful JSON - the same way we used to get XML when using "Nintex for SharePoint" repeaters? Sample formand the cryptic output I get. The JSON variables have some random text appended. Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks! I am not sure I am describing this properly but since the of May update, when you approve a task, the task panel does not close automatically when you click off of it. You have to close it manually which reduces the efficiency a little bit. Has this been addressed? Has anyone else noticed this change?

Hi there Nintex Community,I have a trial tenant for Nintex Workflow Cloud.and used the Nintex Gallery JS-Insert installation steps to register the plugin in my Nintex Automation Cloud tenant using plugin hosted athttps://ashleypresalesfunctions.blob.core.windows.net/nac-plugins/js-insert.jsI was then able to drag the JS-Insert control onto my Nintex form start event form, however when I select the JS-Insert control I only see a single line element to enter the in the JS to Execute field as below:These posts indicate multiple lines of JS are possible.JS-Insert Functions to Execute | CommunityExamples of JS-Insert usage | CommunityIs this a limitation of the hosted plugin I am using at “https://ashleypresalesfunctions...”?I also downloaded the template js-insert.zip file and tried to “Add plugin” and select the downloded  js-insert.js file, but that generated an error “Failed to load the plugin definition”Does anyone know if this js-insert plugin supports multiple line JavaScript?

I have an external data variable that I’m using to populate a repeating section. In order for this to work properly, I need to name the repeating section form controls using the unique identifier names of the related external data variable columns. An example: External data variable column name “Lead (Email)” is unique identifier “Lead_Email”.External data variables don’t automatically display their columns’ unique identifiers, so I find myself guessing at the unique identifier names. Is there a way to view/display an external variable’s column’s unique identifier?

Exciting news in the Nintex camp today as we release the public beta of the MCP connector for Nintex Workflow.  If you're not familiar with the term Model Context Protocol (MCP), it's a standard that lets AI assistants connect to systems such as Nintex.It is a beautiful thing.  AI tools such as ChatGPT provide reasoning and thinking but to actually do things, they need access to tools.  Nintex is one of those tools and you already know how powerful Nintex is so we're providing these AI assistants with a lot of power!This blog shows you how to set up your MCP connector and then takes you through some examples of how you can interact with Nintex.  It's only the tip of the ice berg though so I'd love to see in the comments what you achieve with it.I've used Claude desktop as my example AI companion for all screenshots.  At time or writing we also support Copilot via VS code and we are actively releasing support for other companions. SetupThis is super simple.  All you need to do is to log

Hi everyone,I want to use the Nintex API to create multiple users at once.I am using the Create User endpoint: POST /usermanagement/v1/tenants/{tenantId}/usersHowever, I cannot get it to work. I keep getting this error when I try:JSON{ "type": "https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc9110#section-15.5.4", "title": "Forbidden", "status": 403, "detail": "Forbidden", "instance": "/tenants"}  i have provided the token that is global administrator role. Which it still not allow to create. I have a questions:Is there anyone use different method to batch create Nintex Workflow Users? Thank you for your help!

Is there a way to extract data from an exchange receive an email trigger email since it outputs as HTML? I need to someone extract the name, email, course name and date from this email.  Business is content on using the receive date as the date the course was taken. But the rest is in the body of the message and subject line. I proposed a string in the email body and then after running tests to apply regular expression, realized that it’s coming through as HTML. Is there an easy way?The end goal is to store the extracted data into a SPO list.

I have a task with multiple tasks which have controls linked to other tasks. The tooltips of each linked control shows the source as ‘{{source}}’ and not the actual source. Can others verify they see the same thing? I’m about to put in a feature request to show the actual source and not just the generic ‘{{source}}’ in the tooltip.In this pic, I have 4 other tasks with identical controls. Each of those controls are linked to the controls in the pic. Some are linked multiple times. They all show the same tooltip which makes it so you cannot identify which source each is linked to. I’m putting in a feature request to get this fixed if it is, in fact, a feature and not a bug.  

Hi,Is it possible to export form submission data into an XML file using Nintex Workflow?My goal is to take the form data, generate an XML file, and then store or send the XML file as part of the workflow process.If this is possible, could someone point me in the right direction or share an example of how it can be done?Thanks in advance.

Hi Community,We have a workflow that generates a PDF agreement and sends it for e-signature using Nintex AssureSign.Once the document has been signed, the workflow stores the signed PDF agreement in a SharePoint folder structure organized by Customer ID and the current date.We now need to submit the signed PDF agreement for government stamping. As part of this process, the workflow needs to retrieve the signed PDF from the SharePoint folder. We have tried using the Get a File and Query a List actions; however, the workflow is unable to locate or read the signed PDF from the destination SharePoint folder.Could you please advise on the recommended approach for retrieving a signed PDF file from a SharePoint document library when the folder path is dynamically generated based on Customer ID and date?Any guidance, best practices, or sample configurations would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your assistance.Liy Liy

Hi Team,Can advise what is the error message means?We were trying the API integration via Postman testing and is working fine however when apply into Xtension and it prompt the error as below screenshot.In step1 using Xtension able to get client access token. In step 2 to get Authenticate Enterprise User token and it prompt error.  

so we have a current onprem that take a SO# and type and get the detail from ERP systemthe question is if I use a data lookup, how to hold multiple SO#/Type and then to put the detail to a repeating section.   I know a little bit about xtensions, but not sure if the forms itself can do it.

Is there a workaround (rules or something) to disable ability to add/remove rows in a repeating section after default has been set? We just need people to add additional information to existing rows, not add/remove anything.  Please advise! 

Idea has been created for this, please vote for it! (https://ideas.nintex.com/ideas/CNV-I-314) We’re finding that the new Error Handling features are great - when they work.  Unfortunately, the vast majority of the errors we’ve gotten since its introduction still cause the workflows to fail. In almost all these cases, retrying the failing command would have succeeded, which is the point of the error handling. My assumption is that the errors we’re receiving aren’t setup to apply to Nintex’s error handling. Ideally (to me at least), this caveat wouldn’t even exist, and the error handling could apply to ALL instances where a step failed, regardless of how it failed. My question is this - If we have an error that we think error handling should be capable of catching, but isn’t, what is the preferred way for us to tell Nintex that we’d like to have it supported?  I presume either a support case or an Idea submission, but I’m making a forum post so that it’s public as to what way Nintex pre

I would like to setup a workflow to copy files, including their metadata, from on-premises SharePoint to SharePoint Online. Is this feasible? I’m using both Nintex Workflow Cloud and Nintex On-Premise. Please advise.

I have use case where I have a repeating section on the form. The users want the ability to copy the repeating section value to create a new entry and tweak it. I don’t see anyway in the Rules where I can dynamically add a New Row to the section. Anyone come across this?

Hi Nintex Community,I’m reaching out because we’re excited to be exploring a new graphical workflow execution view designed to give a clear and immediate visual of the path a workflow takes during execution. Our goal is to make it easier than ever to understand and analyse workflow activity.To make sure we’re heading in the right direction, we’d love to get your feedback. I’m looking for customers or partners who are interested in trying out an early concept and sharing their thoughts with us. If you’d like to be involved and help shape the future of this feature, please reply to this message or feel free to email me directly at rick.demarco@nintex.com. We anticipate the initial release to be ready in the next week or soI look forward to hearing your insights!Best regards,​@rickdemarco 

Ahhh Nintex Tables.  You've made life so simple for us.  It has certainly been a welcome addition to our capability that lots of customers have leveraged and so we continue to enhance its capabilities.Hot off the press is row history.  This new capability will help interested parties track changes made to data stored in a Nintex table.  This is particularly relevant for those who have governance and/or auditing requirements where you need to track who made changes and what those changes were.Of course we've always been able to do this by using logging actions in a workflow or writing to an audit table/database but now this functionality is baked into the product saving workflow designers more time as they don't have to record the before and after values any more. To get started, a table designer must enable row history tracking. Then to view changes within a row, simply right click anywhere on the row and select View history.You will be able to see who made the change, the date and tim

Hi everyone,I have a question about task assignments and PDF generation.When a task assignment is completed and the form is submitted, we can download the results as a PDF from Tracking.Is it possible to add a step in the workflow so that, once the task is completed, the generated PDF is automatically taken and stored in another location, for example in SharePoint?Has anyone implemented something similar or knows if this is possible?Thanks!

I have a Nintex Workflow online start form with a Choice - Single control set as a drop down. The Options setting in the control is set to use a Table Data variable to get values for a Data table. The column in the Data table is a Location name (which are City names).Locations were initially added to the Data table with those values being in alphabetical order. New rows were added in table, but those values appear at the bottom of the table and are not in alphabetical order.On the form, the values in the Choice - Single form control appear in the order that they were entered and not in alphabetical order. I am looking a way to sort the choices alphabetically in the Choice - Single dropdown control. Is there a way to do this?Order of rows entered into the Data table and how they display in the choice drop down control on the form:AtlantaBostonChicagoNew YorkLos AngelesBaltimoreHoustonDesired way for then to display in the choice drop down control on the form (in alphabetical order):Atla

One of the most common challenges we come across is: “How do I let users submit multiple related items in a single form, while keeping my data structured and my automation flexible?”Many real-world use cases like equipment requests, expense claims, orders and inspections don’t fit neatly into a single‑record model. They need one primary record with many related items.Repeating Sections are now supported in forms linked directly to tables, unlocking powerful new design and automation patterns. How is this enabledPreviously, Repeating Sections were only available in forms attached directly to workflows. This update expands that capability and gives builders more control over how and when automation runs.Repeating Sections can now be added to forms linked to a tableDesign rich, relational data capture experiences without requiring the form itself to be workflow‑bound.Greater flexibility in workflow execution using table eventsTrigger workflows as needed with greater flexibility e.g. on cr

On a Nintex Workflow online form, I have a Number control configured as Numeric Type of Decimal and Number of Decimal Places as 2. I set the value of the Text control with what is in the Number control via a rule. I need the string in the Text control is always have two decimal places.The issue is the Text string does not always show two decimal places. Below is what actually displays versus what I need to display in the Text control.Value in Number Control Currently Displays in Text Control Needed to Display in Text Control 123.00 123 123.00 123.40 123.4 123.40 123.45 123.45 123.45   

We have a workflow need to capture an ID (from a USB connected scanner) while the user is interacting with a workflow form. Has anyone thought/tried to do this?
