We have connections upon connections as I’m sure most do. How do we trigger a notification if a connection is expiring? This is causing all kinds of issues that stretch beyond a workflow not running. Has anyone found a way to monitor tokens and alert the owner, or anyone BEFORE it expires? 

I wanted to share a few workflows I developed to help in maintenance of running instances and tasks.  I will include the exported workflow keys so you can import them. Once configured and published, the workflows will run daily to generate a report that is emailed to you or to a user to identify any instances running longer then X days or any tasks that have been “escalated” so that you can ensure someone follows up and completes those assigned tasks and running instances. Here are the workflows:Component - Get Escalated Tasks Component - Get Instances Older than X Days Dispatcher - Get Escalated Tasks and Instances Older than X DaysFor workflow 1, here is the key for importPzbcwoV45GkeK3xRPe2K7k7pH7si5Nvv3Cbjs5dmQT5STSwfQ For workflow 2, here is the key for importPzQ7ZjbkfH8xDXC8EzJwquzBKZs8Tuj3MXkuKtHfYTX6aRZC6 For workflow 3, here is the key for importn6FewfqjjeP7vDFvK25zCi9D8zwodW8q8Kko3kMoApM8G1H2i Unfortunately, these keys expire at 30 Mar 2024 - 11:02 AM but I can re-generate fo

I want my Nintex task form to display multiple choice checkboxes using data generated from a previous step in the NAC workflow. At first, I tried using Collections for this, but that did not work. It was not an available option in the “Choice - Multiple” form control. I then switched to another method, whereby I stored the data in a SQL database table, added an “External Data” variable in the form, and did an “Insert” in the Choice - Multiple control using this external data variable. It worked, but it is slow.  15 seconds or more sometimes.Any suggestions on improving this? See screenshots below. First shows the configuration. Second shows the slow-to-load, grayed out control. Third shows Multiple Choice control when populated.  

Hi, I created a custom connector using xtensions. I was able to test that it works because I am able to call the connector in my flow then I log the results to the instance details. However, when I create the data look up in my start form. It is returning with No Data Provided. Based on the testing from calling the connector in the flow I can see that I am returning back the expected results so I know the connection is working. The custom connector I created is for CRM Dynamics. The out of the box CRM connector is not available for creating a Data Look up so I had to create it in xtensions. 

Hi Everyone,I recently came across a use case where I needed to dynamically set with a variable the maximum number of rows in a repeating section. As you can see below we can do this for the default number of rows but not for min and max  rows.I’ve created a nintex idea for this hopefully simple change and would appreciate your support in voting for it 😊 (Nintex have just updated the idea to open for voting)Dynamic Min / Max rows for repeating section | Nintex Ideas ThanksGavin

Hi,at a customer of us there are duplicate entries in workflow inventory. They use Nintex for SharePoint 2019, 5.2.12.0.I found out that in the Nintex content database there are rows with an invalid WebApplicationId in the tables dbo.Workflows and dbo.PublishedWorkflows. In fact there is no WebApplication with this ID, and there is only one Nintex content database. As it seems to me, when the customer publishes such a workflow, a new row is created with the correct WebApplicationId. So workflow inventory shows a published version and a version 0.1 of the workflow.Is it safe to update the WebApplicationId in dbo.Workflows and dbo.PublishedWorkflows and to remove duplicate rows from dbo.Workflows? That way it would try to solve the problem.Regards, Andreas

We are running K2 5.6 FP29 and have followed the Manually Setting AAD for login and also the identity sync article.  Logging into using AAD works but the identity synch fails with the below error.  We followed the same steps in our dev and qa environment and the sync works.  Does anyone know how to fix a missing or malformed token? Error - {"odata.error":{"code":"Authentication_MissingOrMalformed","codeForMetrics":"Authentication_MissingOrMalformed","message":{"lang":"en","value":"Access Token missing or malformed."},"values":null}}   at SourceCode.Sync.Providers.AAD.Net.AadHttpClient.<ValidateResponseAsync>d__21.MoveNext()--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---   at System.Runtime.ExceptionServices.ExceptionDispatchInfo.Throw()   at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task)   at SourceCode.Sync.Providers.AAD.Net.AadHttpClient.<GetStreamAsync>d__20.MoveNext()--- End of stack trace from

Hello, Is it possible to generate a document based on data provided outside Salesforce?For example can I call a DocGen api endpoint to trigger the document generation process manually, and pass REST variables to this endpoint to use while generating this document?​​

I have a collection named PRODUCTI am looping into my collectionIn the collection, I have many fields, but there is one Text field that is empty: Components Text.How can I update this field to put a value in it?

Is there a way to track or identify changes between different versions of a form? Currently, the saved file structure makes it difficult to visually spot differences—only the person who made the changes typically knows what was updated. Is there a way to generate a summarized version of the changes for each version?  

Hi,I have an audit requirement to retrieve the history of worklists that were delegated during a specific period.For example: Was any delegation assigned to Mr. Y on behalf of Mr. X on January 15th, 2020?If yes, did Mr. Y perform any tasks on behalf of Mr. X?Thank you for your assistance — it's much appreciated.Best Regards,Thriveni

For Nintex Automation Cloud, after the form is filled, or after the endorser go to the form to endorse/reject, the form will not be able to view in the form format anymore, we can only see the filled information in all text format in SharePoint on Premise, or in the email. Is there any simple way to view the information in Form format? I'm not keen with HTML script, so I don't want to design the view using HTML. For the Nintex on Premise, we can always go to the form. This is quite a problem that end users complain.

There are many posts about this, but they’re all pretty old and the architecture has shifted around quite a few times.Pretty simple request with a lot of complexity underneath: I want an unauthenticated user to be able to create a custom object record, and then upload a file related to that record.I’m trying to do this in a Lightning Aura Exp Cloud site (if I’m not mistaken, LWR is not yet supported).I’ve got Skuid showing up and the fields in a form. File Upload is rendering - the only configuration that works is Content Document with no model selected. I cannot seem to figure out how to relate it to the record that’s being created.I tried having the File Upload component inject a custom file name or description, which could then theoretically be used by a Flow or Apex to go find and then relate the two records on the backend, with system context. But no dice yet - the custom values do not get saved on the file in Salesforce.

I have a Nintex form where there is a panel that should be locked down in edit mode unless the person editing the form is a member of one of five groups. I read that this fn-IsMemberOfGroup function is limited to only two groups.This caused an error in the form - where some of the other approvers received an “this item had not been shared with you error”...fn-Or(fn-Or(fn-Or(fn-Or(fn-IsMemberOfGroup(“Group1”),fn-IsMemberOf(“Group2”)),fn-IsMemberOfGroup(“Group3”), fn-IsMemberOfGroup(“Group 4”),fn-IsMemberOfGroup(“Group 5”))))) && Is Edit ModeBasically, we don’t want the Created By/Requestor and their “manager” (a people picker field) to edit that panel...if the fn-IsMemberOfGroup is limited to only two groups - is there a different rule I can use to prevent the requestor in updating that panel? 

I have created a list and form and sharepoint and have successfully submitted to it on previous occasions. Suddenly I am getting this error when I try to submit a new form. "Something went wrong.The outcome control is a requirement of the task. Please make sure it is available on the form"Firstly, I haven't created anything task related. Secondly, what is an outcome control?I have created a brand new list based on my existing list and have been able to submit an out-of-the-box SharePoint form to it successfully. It is only when I use the Nintex form that I get the error. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated. Thanks.  

There are two SharePoint 2013 lists, each with a Nintex form. Let's call them forms A and B, each attached to a workflow. Form A was connected to workflow A; and Form B was connected to workflow B. Everything ran fine.Then I must have done something, I don't know, but now a new list item for form-A runs workflow-B. In otherwords, I create a new item in list-A with form-A, but workflow-B gets triggered. It's been like this for a couple of weeks.Any ideas?

Just wanting to check if anyone else is having instances get paused on Document Generation steps? Starting this morning, we have multiple workflows that are stopping at doc gen actions, complaining that the access token expired yesterday.  I’m not aware of any access token needed for document generation, so I don’t believe this is on our end.  I do see in the “What’s New”, that document generation was changed yesterday, which probably isn’t a coincidence.  I have made a support ticket, but I’m waiting for a response.  Thank you!

We have configured several Nintex cloud connections and datasources using different M365 “service accounts”. Is there a quick way to tell what credentials are configured on any particular connection or data source?

I have a form with several dropdowns that populate depending on other values typed in & selected. When users have already selected what they want, and start typing in the comments in a text box, in the middle of typing, the cursor goes back to the beginning of the paragraph. It is really annoying. I have an mp4 video I wanted to share, but it is over 5 MB and won’t upload. I will try compressing it later.  Can anyone help or should I report this as a bug?

 Hi all -I am attempting to update a custom field on a document request record using the Create/Edit Record function. I have the ID and the field to update, but when I go the the docgen queue, the document request is set to ‘pending’, the document doesn’t create and the field doesn’t update. Is this possible? Am I missing something? thank you!
