Hi ​@pawankolaki I hope you are doing well.I am working on nintex workflow cloud and I want to generate a copy of the submitted form using the generate document action. I have a repeating section in another repeating section. I have configured the generate document action but I can only tag the outer repeating section fields unto my form template . Which means the document generated will not have information about the repeating section inside. Can you please advise on a way around like, as I would like the generated document to have all the information on the submitted form. Thank you

it seem to be using the user that create the sharepoint online connection. is there a way to change it to a “service account”

Hello there,We are currently implementing a number of custom controls and are struggling to find real world examples of how to be able to correctly implement the above method for a list bound control.Given the below item view - which has the custom checkbox and the standard one.In the rules designer we get the option to enumerate the various items in the control, as expected: However when displaying a message for each item, we do not get any messages displayed for the custom one, but we do for the standard one.What methods / properties am I missing.Cheers.

How do you update a location field in Sharepoint from Nintex workflow clould? When trying to add the field into the ‘Sharepoint Online: Update items’ control, it’s not available even through it’s on the Sharepoint list.

Anyone have any ideas why DocGen files are not stored in a collection in the specified Generation Order? The files generated in this pic should be in the order of 1, 2, then 3. They keep getting out of order in the collection. The order seems to be random as we’ve had different orders on different attempts.

Staff are receiving change notifications on processes even though:There are no “All Staff” roles allocated They are not a stakeholder “Enable optional dashboard notifications for process changes (Default: Off)”   Is turned to Off “Users with viewing permissions are participants in accessible processes (Default: Off)”   Is turn to OffThere seems to be no reason for this - but they are all SOPs from a certain group - I have checked the group settings also and can’t see anything obvious.Has anyone else had this issue and know where it might be coming from?Thanks

This week and last week, I notice the mini-mode links I’m sending to users result in a map disclaimer stating, “No activity steps have been added to this process yet.” The process is complete (though not published) in Nintex Process Manager. When the users select the “Map” tab or “Procedure” tab, the underlying data loads beautifully but something is preventing it from loading it initially. Users feel the link is broken and confusion as well as excess work results. Can you troubleshoot this recent issue for me, please?

Couple of years ago we’ve developed Nintex solutions for our customer on SharePoint 2016. Customer decided migrate the solution to SAP.My account on Nintex Partner portal was disabled but I also hadn’t delegated access to our customer.  Each year, customer has to buy Combined license for Nintex Workflows and Forms, in June. So, what will be the TimeTable for EndOfLife (EOL) cycle?June 2026 - Customer will buy combined license for 1 yearJuly 2026 - SP2016 Microsoft EOL, but Nintex still provides security updatesJune 2027 - Customer will buy combined license for 1 yearJuly 2027 - Nintex 2016 EOLI am asking generally> although, there will be no support for Nintex 2016 products - will Nintex sell another 1 year licenses each year? Because I’m afraid, that it’ll take long time to migrate to SAP...
