Nintex workflows page: how to reduce "clutter"?

Our Nintex Automation Cloud tenant has a million workflows.  Including a bunch of component workflows.

If this were C++, C# or Java, I’d have different namespaces (or packages), group my classes into different source directories, and define my class methods into different class files.

The only mechanism I could find for “reducing clutter” in NAC workflows is “tags” and “filters”.

Q1: Is there any better way to “reduce clutter” than to declare (ad hoc) “tags”, and manually “filter” on them?
Q2: Is there any way to separate different workflows to different “groups” (so everything doesn’t all display all together on the “All workflows” page)?
Q3: is there any way to define a “default filter” that’s active whenever a user logs on to the NAC tenant (so they don’t have to manually choose filters)?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Paul - definitely get in touch with your partner manager about the Nintex CE closed beta.  This beta includes solutions which allows you to package your workflows together.  More info here:

Hi ​@paulsm4,

The short answer is no. What you see is what you get.

The long answer is to create a Nintex App or your own custom app and use the Nintex Workflow cloud API to display the list of workflows in any way you see fit.
API Docs: https://developer.nintex.com/docs/nw-api-docs/ref/workflows-v1/operations/list-designs

An alternative answer is to post your filtering idea to https://ideas.nintex.com/ to have Nintex include it in the app.

Thank you Simon Muntz and Chris_Ben - I appreciate your suggestions:

  • Developing a “Nintex App” might be a good solution for many different things (not just this particular use case).  I’ll investigate further.
  • I’ll definitely talk to my manager about the Nintex CE Platform beta.
  • Another (less attractive) option might be to simply DELETE “old stuff” (exporting a backup, first)
