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?

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! 

I am making good use of Nintex Data Tables now. It is especially good for getting a quick response in your workflow form. Sometimes calls to our on-prem SQL database take several seconds. But I ran into a problem whenever I moved my data from Test into Production.  While there is a nice “Import” feature to Tables, there is no Export.  So I built one, and I’ll display that here below. The “Import” process takes a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file, so I will generate that using a workflow in my Test environment. First, create a workflow and set the Start Event as a Nintex Component workflow.Insert the following actions that we will configure:Query a table Create a text string Loop for each (inside your loop) Create a text string Send an email (or substitute some other method of obtaining your output Configuring these actions:For “Query a table” you simply select your Table and select all the columns you want. If you want all the rows, then don’t add any Conditions. Complete the other se

Hi,I  have the SmartObject AD User under the “Active Directory Service 2”.I’m able to use this SmartPbject and get the details for a certain user using the method GetUserDetails.The issue that I have is that not all the available properties from AD are available on the SmartObject “AD User”. For example, I have some exterionAttirbuteX in AD that is not included.It is some way to add these missing properties?Thank you 

This is something that should be pretty straightforward but doesn’t appear to be (in Nintex anyway, easy in other products) I have a form that is out of space and requirements to add several more fields/sp list columns to the form so I need to add a second page. No option that I can see anywhere to add a second page. 

I have a process which accidentally had a ‘Checklist’ created, in the process there is a form linked in, we no longer require the form or the process, I have been trying to archive the form from the process so I can then archive the process.  I have sent a notification to Nintex as I am getting an error message after saving.  However, I have discovered the system ‘Checklist’ was created and I really don't know how the user did this but as they told me they wanted to remove the form and archive them both I know the checklist was created by accident.  Would this checklist be causing the system to return the error.  I have been trying to work out how to archive the system checklist in this process but haven’t been able to work this out yet.  Can you help with this. 

Hello everyone,I am new to Nintex Community and have few questions, hoping to get the answer from someone. After a Nintex document generation process initiated from a record(in this case a custom object called ‘Treasury Service’), the landing page goes back to the same record from which the document generation was initiated. Is there any configuration at either DDP or Delivery Options level, to remain on the Drawloop page and not going back to the record, it was initiated from. For generating the document using Apex, how do we pass the DocGen File Template ID along with DDP ID. We were able to figure it out to pass the DDPID but do not find an option to pass DocGen File Template ID  Thx.
