Hi

Can anyone tell me more about the capabilities of the gateway? Can it only be used from NWC? Or is Office 365 a possibility? Can you access on-prem sql servers through it? Other services?

@Villagebully currently Gateway can only be used from NWC and right now it only supports connecting to RPA. However, I believe that the longer term vision is that it will be able to connect to other on-prem content such as SQL and SharePoint on-prem. 

 

If you do need to connect to SQL on-prem currently this can be done with the Execute SQL action in NWC, although you do need the on-prem database server to be connected to the internet so a connection can be established via the Nintex Connection Manager.
