Nintex Workflow

I am working on a workflow in Nintex Workflow Cloud and the users need to submit some data and let it approve by the manager. The approval has to be finished always until the 25th of the month. If the manager forgets to finish the task by the 25th, it should escalate and finish the task automatically with the default outcome of the task. How can I set up a date variable that's always the 25th of the current month, when the workflow has started? And then I could use this date variable as my escalation day for the task.

I have implemented a form with some text fields that i want to populate with the current users information. I have inserted context->current user->First name as the default value in the text field. I've set the form access to authenticated users and ran it from within my Nintex but my data is not being populated in the form. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi I'm looking for some support with Nintex workflow cloud and debugging using a start event workflow triggered externally. My workflow is running, and my https request is accepted however when I attempt to display the details from automate/instances, the screen flashes up ever so briefly before displaying a “something went wrong while processing your request please try again later” error. the screen is so fast I can only read it if I record as a video and then play it back frame by frame. Also, because the create a support ticket button is on this page, it is impossible to select and create a new request for assistance. The workflow is published, it is in development "type"  

Hi I am creating a workflow using a scheduled event and querying a list. So basically at 1100pm I want nintex to query a list using a date and time column (in sharepoint i don't use the time just date) then use a run if function that is if the column date is equal to the context date then it send an email. However even though I select sharepoint to use just the date it appears to still add the time from the query date. See attachment. Any help would be appreciated   . 

Is there a way in NWC to export the Workflow to a file?  It seems the Export function just provides a key for you to copy to another tenant and that only last 3 days.    Google results talk about a .NWF file but it appears to be related to SharePoint workflow only. 

I'm having trouble storing a file in sharepoint online after the file is signed via Adobe Sign. I'm trying to store the signed agreement in sharepoint rather than OneDrive/Box/etc. Then emailing the signed agreement to another party. My workflow screenshot is below.  Getting the error when it is at the "store a file" action. Received an error response from the connector: {"message":"Folder path 'https://xxxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxxxxx/Document%20Test/Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=22' is not supported","correlationId":"3a7b96dc-5c17-47d0-8af1-0cb8dc066912"}.

Hi all, I have two date fields, the first always requires user input and the 2nd I need calculated from the first by adding 1 year date field 1. Date field 2 may need to be adjusted by the user but i need it to defualt in one year ahead. When using the 'dateadd' function I am not able to select from any Form Controls, i have also attempted to build a form variable however in the Date field i am unable to select my form variables. Sorry if this has been answered but couldnt see any content in the workflow cloud section. Thanks,Jayce

Hello, We have SAML based Azure AD - Identity federation with auto-acceleration set to on - in NWC. I have to use Assign a task action where the Assignee will be determined dynamically.I couldn’t get this working and gives this error below when workflow is executed.  What I have found so far is: If the user has never used NWC before, then they have to first access the NWC site, in order for them to get added/registered to the NWC Portal. Only then the workflow recognizes the user. But that is not practical as we cannot email every user the link to NWC and ask them to access the page. Anyone faced similar issues? any solutions please? @cec

Hi everyoneHow do I change my Start Event to something different, when it says "configuration is disabled due to one or more variables being use"? ThanksKirk

In my workflow, I am updating some columns in a SharePoint Online List Item. I want to clear the value in a Number field. When I add the field in the Update configurator and don't enter anything in that field, I get a warning when I try to publish. "Error: The workflow contains unconfigured actions. Please configure all actions and try publishing again." To fix the error, I enter a number in the field. And then I delete that number. I am able to publish, but when the workflow runs, the value in that field does not get cleared. Furthermore, when I edit the workflow and configure the Update step, I discover that the field I wanted to update with blank (null, nothing) was removed from the configuration. How do I clear the contents of a SPO List Item Number field in the Update items step?

Hello, We have a few component workflows that return multiple output variables, but we don't always care about all the outputs in every situation. There's a number of built in actions with outputs (Call a Web Service) where the outputs aren't required, and don't need to be defined in order to save/use the action.  Is there a way to make the outputs of a component workflow optional, so that we don't have to create variables to store data we don't always care about?  Thank you

Is it possible to reopen and update a submitted NWC form?

So here's my conundrum. I'm trying to design a lost-and-found form that allows a user to enter data about a lost item, which then writes over to a list in SharePoint Online. When the lost item is disposed of (returned to its owner, thrown away, etc.), the SPO list item needs to be updated with the new information about when and how the lost item was taken care of.That seems simple enough. Seems like a form > Create item in SPO > Assign a task > Update item in SPO. But the problem is that there is no one specific to whom the task should be assigned. Any employee in the given location can potentially be the one to update the information, just as any employee can be the one to enter the original information. And we have approximately 30 locations for which this is the case. I don't want to assign the task to multiple parties because, of course, that type of task requires specific users to be named - an administrative nightmare in this case. (And you can

Hello Nintex Community! I put in a ticket for this issue but I am not sure when specifically they will get back to me but did anybody have trouble using the "call a web service" and getting this error below:SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: certificate verify failed (unable to get local issuer certificate) I tested using this api on the vendor's swagger, postman, and soapui. Is this something that someone else encountered before as well? If not, this might be a nintex cloud thing then?

I am new to Nintex Workflow Development.  I have created a couple of forms and associated workflows using Nintex Workflow Cloud.  The form is using the "File Upload" control. Files appear to upload to the form via the "File Upload" control.  I am using the SharePoint Online "Add Attachment to an Item: control within my Nintex workflow.  The goal is to take the files uploaded via the form and save them as attachments to a SharePoint Online List item. However, I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work.When I try using the "Add Attachment to List Item" control in my workflow, I get the following error. Add attachment to an item (Waiting)Failed Received an error response from the connector: Json file source is empty.. [Error Code: IO.XtensionExecute.ErrorResponse] Is there a user guide, tutorial, video, or someone with experience that can show/tell me how to get the file(s) from

I am in Arizona (GMT-7). In my workflow, I am using the Context variable, Current date, to populate a Date column in SharePoint Online item. "Include Time" is set to No on the column. There is no default value for that column. Today is 8/13/2021. The workflow is setting the date in my SharePoint list to 8/12/2021. Why would this be happening? Does anyone have a workaround for this?

I am doing a string to find a number and looking for a way to add a variable to look for and then anything after the variable can be any wild character: As it currently fails to find the folder when there is text after the Division number and it is too random to just add more variables underneath.  Thank You

I have a Data Lookup control on NWC form.  The control is connected to Xtension that is calling API.  I was told that, if I want to use API on the Form, then the only data type of Response from API can be an array.  Currently, I can return a one dimensional array and populate the drop down list. "schema": {"type": "array","items": {"type": "string"}}This is not very helpful.  I was wondering if I can return two columns back to Data Lookup, and that way it will work similar to the way it works with SharePoint lists.  With SharePoint list connectors we can select multiple columns from the list and point to them in the designer.Regards.

As of this morning my workflow was working fine, suddenly no new instances of it have been triggered after I create new items in my list 

Keeps saying my user name or password is incorrect.... or just something went wrong.  

Yes, I am a newbie with NWC and how it interacts with SharePoint Online.  I am trying to understand if a workflow/form user that needs to enter data into a Nintex form or be assigned a workflow task or will be able to trigger a workflow needs to be added as a "Delegated User" in Customer Central?  

I tried using User Context Object on NWC form and I can display my First Name, Last Name, Email.  Then I asked my colleague who is not on our NWC tenant to launch the URL and bring up the form, and he is getting an error: The signed in User is not assigned a role in the application ...... I am not sure whether the application listed is NWC tenant, or that is a SharePoint application.  Which bring to another question.  Is User Context Object only available to NWC tenant members, or associated SharePoint apps? Regards.
