Nintex Workflow

 Has anyone been able to build a purchase or order form? What we are looking for is a way to display photos of different products that can be ordered. Then choose how many of each item that needs to be ordered. We are hoping to pull the products from a SharePoint list.

I’m using the NAC APIs to generate a Report.The Tasks API v2 is successfully returning all the Tasks for a workflow instances.However, I just noticed that the Tasks API v2 is returning empty tasks for Instances which were completed 14 days ago.Question: Does the Tasks Details of a workflow instance expire? If YES, when does it expire Status Response is 200{ "tasks": []}  

Please provide a solution for this issue. This issue is causing us major problems and every OOO solution we come up with is 10x the work only because the workflow can’t handling waiting for file to be unlocked by user to move forward or allow us to add an error handling action for this particular action (update items action for files in a library). We need to store status, reviewer feedback, approval information, commentary etc on files that get opened and closed on a regular basis. We can’t update metadata or columns in library when files are open.We resorted to tracking document information in a list but this causes more challenges the more we begin using it: If someone moves a file the link breaks for the link we push to the list for association. Users have to learn how to manage files from a list vs just having the information accessible in the library for each file If business requirements require both list and library to be linked, we have to lock the library down from editing up

I have a NAC workflow that has a connection to a SharePoint online list set up for ‘Nominations’, and emails are sent to different recipients depending on which region is selected in a regions dropdown on the nomination form.  I also have a ‘Contact’ list that has for each region a different email recipient to email the nomination to. In my NAC workdlow I have a connection to the site URL containing the ‘Nominations’ list below.  Question is how do I add the ‘Contacts’ list.  The contact list is in the same site collection as just another list.  How to add the second list (contact) to the NAC workflow.Connection to tenent 

Is there anyway to copy actions (or Action sets) in one workflow to a different workflow without manually recreating?It would be such a time saver. I typically build out thinks I am doing in a Development workflow and after testing move it to a Production workflow. Some tend to get quite large so rebuilding takes time and is prone to human error.

I am getting an error when using the “On Premise Sam Account Name” field in conditions.Error is : Unsupported or invalid query filter clause specified for property 'onPremisesSamAccountName' of resource 'User'.When testing this in Postman (or MS Graph explorer)  I am able to get it to work but it needs some modification from a basic command or it gets the same Error. What needs to happen in the GET command is “$count=true” needs to be added and and in request headers key “ConsistencyLevel” with value “eventual” must be added.So my questions:can the default Azure Active Directory Query Users activity be use the “On Premise Sam Account Name” field in conditions? Maybe I am missing something. Should I try to just use “Call a Web Service” and customize it to GET from AAD?This is how it is setup now. 

Hi, I would like to create a scheduled workflow to gather the items that have been added to a Sharepoint List on the current day, insert it into an email as a table, then send to recipients. Thanks in advance!

The Instance Detail page is great and very informative. However, the details can be overwhelming at times. Is there a way to filter for specific actions - say… just the Log?or hide the details of a For Each Loop

I find the completion rules for assigning a task to multiple users restricting. In case all assignees must respond, the workflow itself will always determine the outcome based on the majority outcome:“When all assignees have responded, the workflow will proceed using the outcome with the majority of responses. In the case of a tie, the majority outcome with the first response is used.”This frustrates me. Some examples:If I assign an approval task to 20 assignees to Approve/Decline a request and one assignee declines, I want to be to determine the task outcome. Now it will always be Approved If I assign an approval task to 20 assignees to Approve/Decline a request and 15 assignees decline and 5 approve, the task outcome will always be Declined. But who determined that I needed a majority to approve the request? That is our internal evaluation.I am forced to create a work around for both task outcomes by looping trough the task outcomes and determining the follow-up tasks based on that.M

HiAre there reminders on an escalation? If so, do the reminders go through the same process as when the task was initially sent out?Thanks

I want to monitor all my Scheduled Start workflow but its difficult as the custom filter in Instance does not have a filter for Nintex Scheduled Start events. My current workaround is to include a keyword into the Workflow name

Is it really necessary to show the expiration warning to everyone? Can the Subscription expiration warning be disabled for...Priority: MyNintex Users and Business Owners Designers  Just limit the expiration warning to Admins and Global Admins 

is there a NAC setting to prevent automation and global admins from seeing form submission data in the workflow instance UI? one of the workflows is managing confidential HR data that even admins should not see.Thanks!

I am a Global Admin in our Nintex Automation Cloud environment.  I have a connection to Sharepoint which I have used before.  The permissions for this connection show that I am the owner and everyone is a user for this connection.  I tried to use it in a workflow today and it didnt appear as a choice of connection to use. I had another user also test and she could not use the connection either.  She was not an owner of the connection.  I looked at my previous workflow that used the connection and its broken there too.

Hi all, I have a people picker in my form that I want the end user to add multiple names to. I am then trying to get the email and the name of the people in the picker, and include it into an email.I’ve tried many different methods to do this (loop for each, text to string, get item from collection) and I either get just the last person added to the people picker or everyone that is in the people picker with lines and lines of code.Thank you in advance!

What is the Best Practices to capture a NAC Workflow for Documentation purposes?Since NAC doesn’t not have a feature to export or print the workflow, what can be done to capture the workflow for Documentation purposes? Some methods which I currently utilize is to:Screen capture - snip and stitch into a single large image. + Great for a single time. -  Painful if have to do it weekly. Configuration is not capture Diagram it with Visio, Lucidchart or Draw,io Write Pseudocode using a programming language like Python + Linear and conditional flow is easy to replicate - State Machine harder to replicate with “switch” structure.  Is there going to be a PRINT or EXPORT feature for NAC? 

I have an automation cloud workflow that fires on the SPO Check-in and Publish Major version event, however I am not able to get the user’s check-in Comment from the Start Event - it’s not available as a start value nor as a value from querying the list/library after commencement.Apart from having to a HTTP request as parse XMLor JSON, is there an alternate method to get this?TIARob

Hi there,I need to be able to have a a reusable workflow to Auto Number the [Title] field or other selected field based on other fields.The number must be 3 digits i.e. 001.  (to 999 max)Example AB-[Year]-[Type]-001Where the combinations of year and type is different the number will reset to 001 (year change).This will be activated on new forms with the option to be included on edit form.Has anyone done this? Can provide support? Might be able to purchase this solution/support if reasonable?Any ideas/pointers please thanks.

What is the best option for decommissioning or archiving workflows in Automation Cloud?  In the on-premises environment, we could export the workflow before deleting it which allowed us to easily recreate the same workflow if a similar workflow was needed in the future.  The current export functionality only allows you to move to a new environment within 3 days which is not optimal. It looks like the only other option is to make a copy and keep in draft format which makes it difficult to manage when you have hundreds of workflows.  Is there a future feature that is coming to allow archiving or similar functionality?

Hi all, Nintex newbie here, so sorry if this is a super basic question!What I am trying to accomplish is basically a two step form. Step one will give basic details about an incident that has occurred and the first step will send a notification to a distribution list as well as a link to the reporter to complete the second step. The second step of the process will be a kind of continuation of the first form - with further detail of the incident that has occurred. The details of this will be saved into a Sharepoint List.What is is best/easiest way to complete this? Any tips would be helpful! Thanks in advance!
