Nintex Workflow

How do you get a signature to display in Nintex Mobile? Its most baffling that Nintex is unable to accomplish something this simple. How to display a Signature inside a Task Assign Form using Nintex Mobile? Signature is from O365 Form (Start Event - SPO New Item)Workflow is NAC/NWC Task Assign Form When Task Assign is opened using Desktop, Signature is displayed, URL is from sharepoint.comWhen using Nintex Mobile - Image is blank  Tried also using Google Drive When using Nintex Mobile -  

In Nintex for SharePoint On-Prem you can see the name of the workflow and its list, this doesn’t seems to be enabled by default in NWC/NAC while edits are made to a workflow in the Workflow Designer.How/where we can see/know/enable the workflow name in the Designer?I haven’t fund a way to know the name of the workflow other than the “Save as” menu option.Is there an ‘efficient’ way to do this? Imagine you are working with 4-5 different workflows. Thank you.Salvador Rodriguez.

A call to the Microsoft Graph end point can get the associated SharePoint web site URL of a Microsoft Team.For example: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/<team-id>/sites/root/weburlwhere <team-id> is the Microsoft Team identifier.From NAC how do you get and pass the correct authentication token? An authentication token is required when calling the above URL from the Call a web service action within NAC workflow. 

Hi,I’m trying to configure the Call a Web Service action.for my test, i’m trying to call a free API, with request type of GET.i configured the action like this:every time i test the workflow, i get the same error:i have no idea what the problem could be.any help, please.

I'm close to go-live with a workflow including the collection of personal data.How can I delete instance data after a time period for GDPR compliance? In the API (V1/V2) there is no delete option and I cannot configure this at workflow level.And are there any access logs or activity logs available? Or do I have to deduce this from the instance and task data through the API?Many TIA!

Hi may i ask if Number in NWC supports negative numbers? It seems not supported. Thank you.

Hi I am trying to retrieve a respondent name/email from the flow but it seems not working if the task is assigned to a user outside of the tenant. But not quite sure if that is the reason. Thanks.

Hi all,Here is my scenario:  I created a Nintex 365 workflow on a SharePoint online list called:Notify on ChangeThis sends an email on a change of an item.  I created a second identical list with an identical workflow (But of course had to rename the workflow Notify on Change NEW, because you can’t use the same name as an existing workflow).After doing my testing on the second list, I decided I didn’t need the original list anymore so I deleted the list. Now when I go to rename the remaing workflow from Notify on Change NEW to Notify on Change, Nintex tells me the workflow name is still in use?   And I’m still getting emails from the original workflow!  Creepy...I know. Is there a way I can find this Ghost workflow?  Has anyone else seen this behaviour?Thanks!TRoy

Howdy, I’m wondering if anyone has come across this issue before or might know a solution; A handful of our workflows have assigned tasks that are sent to shared mailboxes:  However when the task email is received in the shared mailbox, and a person that has access to that shared mailbox, tries to open the task URL, they receive an access denied error in their web browser: I presume this is because the task is assigned to the shared mailbox email, and not the user email, so access is rejected? We could get around this issue by disabling “Assignee Authentication” on the task itself, however we require assignee authentication as the approver details are captured for audit purposes. Is this expected behaviour for shared mailboxes and tasks? Or is there a fix for allowing users to access a task that is sent to a shared mailbox?

What is the limit of recipients the send an email action can have? I see no documentation about this and we are building a distribution workflow that sends a notification out to a collection of email addresses (authenticated users). This collection will have 700-1,000 employees in it. Will this fail? I’m only asking cause we have had issues with how many people can go on an email if sending manuall through Microsoft Exchange due to their limitations. I obviously can’t test this, so any help is appreciated. Send an email (nintex.com)Exchange Online limits - Service Descriptions | Microsoft Learn

What is the limit of characters a workflow "Single line of text" variable can hold for the various Nintex platform - O365, NAC/NWC ? Here is what I manage to search from the forums For Nintex for SharePoint - @butlerj stated a limit of 255 characters For NWC, @SimonMuntz stated exceeds 255 character - unless Input validation option is used to limit the Length to 255 

How do you read a single record from a SQL table based on its primary key and store it in an object variable in a workflow. I can get a collection of 1, but cannot extract the record into an object of the same type as the table.It only allows me to extract it to a workflow variable. I would like the same functionality as for SharePoint: ie ‘Retrieve an item’ 

We are currently beginning our journey to migrate from SharePoint 2013 on-prem to Teams/SharePoint Online.  We have many custom forms that were developed in .net which we will be converting to Nintex Workflow Cloud as we are being advised as Microsoft may deprecate the workflow engine in SharePoint online.  Our users are used to clicking the New button on the SharePoint list to create new entries.  How can we replicated that experience if we are creating the form and workflow in NWC?    

Is it possible to assign a task to multiple users utilizing a distribution email group? I got it to work with disabling assignee authentication, however the workflow needs to return who completed the task to utilize the Get user Details action for Active Directory. If I disable the assignee authentication then i get an errors on the user details action.  If I enable it the task fails to initiate.   

I’m trying to update a SharePoint Online List items permission but our SharePoint Online Connection is not auto loading as in the example found on YouTube : According to above tutorial it should autoload?My view: When I try to add a new SP Online connection it tells me I do not have permission? I have a Global Administrator role. Does anyone know what I need to do to get around this?

What is the difference between the various (SharePoint Online) Update type? In the O365, Set Workflow Status (which is not available in NAC). When using the NAC/NWC Upgrades converts to SPO - Update Items → [Items at root level but ignore folders] The O365 Update List Items when converted to NAC/NWC becomes SPO - Update Items → [Items and folders at all levels] 

HI,  I am after a way to start NAC workflow from Power Automate? or the other way around please advise if there is a connector available? Thanks in  advance.K

This seems to be a bug that was introduced several months ago. If I open a workflow to look at, but don't make any changes, a dialog pops up asking me if I want to discard changes. This is misleading, since there were no changes. Dialog title: Discard ChangesDialog text: Unsaved changes to the current workflow will be lost. Continue? Is there any way to stop this from occurring? This is causing a lot of confusion for our users. There a now many workflows in our tenant that have drafts saved after the publish date. Is there any way to see if there is a difference between what was published and what is saved at a later time?

I am using the Create a text string action to build up a list in a foreach loop. When I write the contents of the variable in Log to instance details, each item is on its own line. When I add that same variable to an email, all of the items end up on the same line. How can I fix this so that each item is on its own line in the email, just as it appears when I log to instance details?Thanks!

Its a manual activity. whenever user running this work flow, some times its updating the version history and DCr Link and some times its not. i verified for test documents, i can able to see the log but the version history is not updating for the specific documents in the sharepoint document library. Could you please help us to understand the issue.  

Here is the scenario I am working on:I have a SharePoint online list which stores and tracks submissions for approval. Automation Cloud Workflow is a state machine workflow which contains branches for every approval stage. I have created separate component workflow to manage the approval task at each stage.   Approvers have the ability to respond to the task email, edit the task form, or manually update the item in the SharePoint list.  If the item is approved in the list, I want to terminate the component workflow. (fyi, I was able to do this easily on -prem).Shown below:Set permissions on the item. Start Internation Approval Workflow (this is the component workflow). Wait for the Int’l Review Status to not = Pending Review. Get the latest details of the item. Check to see if Approved by WF. (note: in the component workflow I update an ApprovedbyWorkflow field = Yes if it’s approved there) If it’s not approved by workflow, get the CurrentApproverDisplayName (used for other reasons in

Hello,I’ve created a list and form in SharePoint along with a workflow in Nintex Workflow Cloud. The task forms appear to work a little differently than they do in O365/SharePoint. Where I’m getting stuck is that I’ve got several multi-line text fields on the regular form that I need to populate into the task form, but for whatever reason when I add these fields to the form, they populate as single-line text fields. Therefore, when there is lots of text in them, only some of it shows. Screenshot of regular form with multi-line fields: Screenshot of task form with same fields, but showing as single-line and cutting off the text: Anyone know how to fix this? I’m not seeing any way to adjust the type of field on the task form itself in NWC. Thanks in advance!Justine
