We were advised by our CRM to use the API for instances reporting. We need to run a report daily of instances started each day and email a summary to leadership and our team. 

 

This will help us identify if something is NOT right in the tenant on any given day - specifically excessive trigger looping.

 

That being said, we’ve used this API in the past for several workflows and forms. 

 

I’m not sure why it’s not working all of the sudden. Can someone please try and install the Xtension and run it to a US tenant and see if it’s operating as expected? I can’t get it to work and I have have installed it to several US tenants we have to get it to work and I receive the 404 error each time saying resource not found so I’m confused. 

Nintex Gallery - Nintex Workflow Cloud API v2

 

 

Hi Brandy,

I tested this issue and it appears that the API has been changed which means the Xtension is not configured correctly.
I have attached an ”Unofficial fix” (I fixed it myself) for the issue.
The Xtension now points at the correct endpoint for workflow instances. (I may have broken some of the other actions because I don’t think the endpoint has changed for all of the methods.)
With the new API there is no Option to filter via “all” so I have made the Status not a required field.  Leaving it blank will give you all workflows. 

I will get the Gallery updated with a fully working “Official version” Xtension after the holiday break.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

 


My issue right now is the limitations or it only wanting to return 30 back. We are looking to return between 500-1000, if possible, so we can put a condition in the workflow to alert our team to go “monitor” why it’s above our average. This is specifically to ensure excessive “trigger” looping is not occurring in our tenant causing the initiation of instances to spike! Which happened to us a few times over the years. Unfortunately, we don’t catch them immediately to pause the workflow long enough to stop / disrupt the behavior.
