To store who has completed a task, when and store the comments, I run 2 loops:one on the tasks with same workflow instance ID one on the tasks responsesWith the 1st loop, I get almost everything: the task ID, the assignee, the outcome, who has completed and when. Unfortunately, I cannot get the field values from the form (above all, a comment field) and the express approval comment.That’s why I run the 2nd loop. With this loop, I get the field values from the form. I use the form URL to calculate the task ID and I complete my history log table because I have this task ID.I’ve discovered that the form URL becomes empty when the assignee completes the task by express approval. How can I get the task ID to store the express approval comment on the right place in my history log?Can someone help? Thanks.

Hello,I have recently inherited a K2 application.  I have a database with 15 views copied to a K2 database.  I think some of them are not being used, but I have no easy way to prove or disprove my theory.  Does anyone know of a way to search through objects to see if they reference a specific table or view?  Even a data source would be helpful.Thank you,Chris

I’m trying to add an extension to a list of files in a network folder.

Hi Nintex Communities,I have three rows of data in the SharePoint List. Two of the rows contain the same vendor name (i.e., ABD Sdn Bhd) and Type of Agreement, but with different Agreement Dates and Agreement Numbers. Please refer to the SharePoint List screenshot.I would appreciate your advice and guidance on the best approach to extract the three rows of data from the SharePoint List and consolidate the records by Vendor ID. The output should display the Agreement Date, Agreement Number, and Type of Agreement associated with the same vendor.The workflow should then proceed to generate a separate PDF for the next vendor. Please also refer to the screenshots “Agreement Template PDF 1” and “Agreement Template PDF 2” for reference.    Thank you,Liy Liy

Hello,While testing our upgrade to 5.9 (FP4), we have noticed that dropdown lists no longer jump to an option when the first letter is typed. For example, if we had a list of US States, in previous versions typing ‘H’ would jump straight to Hawaii. In 5.9 it seems to only select the first ‘blank’ option. Is this by design or is it a bug?

We have been successfully retrieving a list of templates using the DocumentNOW endpoint below for quite some time:https://www.assuresign.net/api/documentnow/v3.7/templatesHowever, starting this morning the request is returning the following error:Forbidden exception: “The current user is not authorized to perform the requested action.”Nothing has changed on our end with respect to authentication, permissions, or the integration configuration.Have there been any recent API updates, permission changes, or other changes to the DocumentNOW API that could cause this behavior?Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated. 

I am creating a document with SharePoint list data, I also want to merge any document attachments on the list item. Has anyone done this successfully?   Merging 1 attachment is not the problem, but merging an unknown number of attachments, I have no idea where to start with that.Any help would be appreciated.

Is there any functionality to disable the ‘Copy Form Data’ option in Nintex Automate.  

  There is no way to re-size it, and yes the browser is full screen…. 

For the flow trigger event: MS Exchange Online > Received email, there appears to be no collection variable or way to get attachments from the email.This seems like a massive gap, so much so that I’m wondering if I’ve missed something? I would have thought this would be 90% of the use case for this start event. If anyone can highlight to me what I’ve missed, or how to do this I would appreciate it.

Can you create an OOF that excludes certain workflow processes? I have sensitive financial information on a certain workflows where OOF should not be applicable.I note there is an exception feature, but that requires to nominate another person to delegate the task to - and won’t allow the original FQN.Any suggestions? And oh, the OOF needs to be created automatically (via a workflow) using smartobjects (or any other means).

Hi everyone,We’re running Nintex workflows on SharePoint Server Subscription Edition (SE), and since our migration, several workflows are not running smoothly. They fail intermittently with a generic “Error Occurred” message. The detailed error states:“The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.”This message doesn’t clearly indicate which field is causing the issue. What’s unusual is that if we ask users to delete the file and re‑upload it, the workflow completes successfully afterward.Has anyone seen this behavior on SharePoint SE post‑migration? Any ideas on what might cause this or how to identify the problematic column?Any guidance or troubleshooting tips would be really appreciated.

Is there a way to set the business owner of the workflow as one of the assignee to a “Assign a task to multiple users”? or some how get the business owner
