Hi, I’ve been trying to capture information from an approval task form but have been unsuccessful. The task follows a multi-level approval process:The Originator fills in Section A and Section C. Once submitted, it is routed to the Supervisor for approval or rework (if necessary). If approved, it will be routed to the next PIC to fill in Section B.In the Originator's first submission, the worklist item correctly displays the data entered. During the first level of approval, the Supervisor may approve or request rework. If rework is needed, the Supervisor is required to add remarks before submitting. After this, it is routed back to the Originator (if rework was required), or to the next PIC (if approved).Data is being captured as well for rework remark. However, during the submission by the PIC, data entered in Section B is not captured in a specific table view, even though it is supposed to be displayed.I have adjusted the rules several times, but the information from Section B still

Hi all.I’m wondering if there’s a way I can deny the archival request of a promapp process?Essentially one of the processes I’m reviewing is ‘awaiting archive approval’, and I can only see the option to approve it. Is there a way I can deny it? Or do I have to first approve it, and then reinstate it after it’s been archived?Hope that makes sense, thanks in advance!

Kia ora everyone,   We have been using Promapp for approx. 2.5 years now and are undergoing a review of our phased roll-out of Nintex Promapp - how can we do better, what are we doing well, what education do we need to undertake.   We employ over 400 staff and one of the key objectives of our review is better communication at all levels of the organisation regarding the use and roles/responsibilities of Promapp.   Has anyone undertaken a review of their system or implementation strategy that could share some of the wins or losses you experienced while doing this?   Does anyone have any tips for communicating at different levels of the organisation (eg. Level 2, 3 & 4 Managers)?   Kind regards,   Sherrianne Nation Waimakariri District Council    

How do we configure a nintex onprem workflow to Get and Merge all docs attached to the form/list Item along with the PDF the DocGen will generate?  The final output needs to be a single PDF of all docs (the list item form + all attachments) 

Hi,I have a SharePoint List that I created a K2 Application (with Views and Forms) from. This List has an ImageURL column/field that I would like to use to reference to display an image that’s also stored on SharePoint, but I can’t seem to find the property or control to help me do that.I saw this older thread, but it talks about using an Image control -- which has an Image URL property. This is exactly what I’m looking for, but… I don’t see an Image control in my toolbox; only a Picture control. That control has no such “Image URL” property and only seems to be able to upload an image directly. What would be the recommended way to display an image stored on SharePoint in a Nintex K2 View?  Thank you!

This may be a recent issue, but I wanted to see if anyone else noticed it? I’m familiar now that the processes that land in the Dashboard: Processes for Publishing are ones that have an error in them that requires a Promaster to check. For example, the editors may have submitted for approval a process that has links to an archived process. That would be an error and it has been up to us Promasters to help the editors resolve the error. Recently, I noticed a process that had such an error (output link to an archived process), both editors had approved, and it didn’t land in the Processes for Publishing queue, but rather stayed in the Processes for Approval queue with just a Publish Now button. Curious if anyone else noticed this behavior within the Promaster’s view of the My Dashboard?

I have a form that generates a QR Code in a PrintArea Panel that I am able to Print to PDF using the OOB functionality. Is there a way to have a Print Button that prints the PrintArea Panel and gives you the option to choose a printer?

Recently, all our salesforce connector action buttons utilising autoluanched FLOWs have stopped working when the page first loads.When the button is clicked, the console error shows this.  You have to click on the button again for it to action correctly.core_all.js:2 TypeError: this.dataSourceType.getActions(...).then(...).finally is not a function    at DataSource.getActions (skuidReqs.js:2:488207)    at DataSourceType.runAction (skuidReqs.js:2:508996)    at DataSource.runAction (skuidReqs.js:2:490354)    at skuidReqs.js:2:376659    at async Action.run (skuidReqs.js:2:429459)

I have a responsive form from which I am generating a PDF from a template. That’s working fine but because the PDF that is generated is both internal and customer facing, I’d like to be able to display a multi-choice checkbox lookup field as those checkboxes (along with the options selected) instead of returning the submitted information in a string. Is this possible? Or if I’m overthinking and there’s a better way to do this, I’m all ears. I did find the same question here but the images aren’t available & I’m struggling to wrap my head around it.As a part 2 to this question, I’m finding that anytime I make a change to the template, I’m having to retag every single field and not just the one that changed. Is this expected behavior?

Hi, I’m using Nintex Automation Workflow cloud and noticed that my admin account is applied to the “modified by” column. I am assuming every time the workflow runs through an action like “update item” it applies my admin acct name. Am I understanding this correctly?I was asked why I was modifying the item in sharepoint and I’m not, my thought to this was that every time the workflow ran through an action that, that happened. Can someone explain?

All,Looking for some basic help here.I have a separate repeating section which will gather 5 separate pieces of DATA for each specific attachment added to an attachment field within a group on the Nintex workflow form.Can I then grab and assign that data to each attachment and write it all to a Library in SharePoint?In effect if I have 3 attachments, ROW 1 data will be for file1, Row2 for file 2 and Row 3 for file 3.  But I haven’t a clue how to do this in a Lop for each in the workflow.

I’ve seen with a recent update the I can Copy the data from a Repeating Section down from the start form and into a task, and the data is editable. This is great for our workflows, but I’ve run into an issue in getting the data to copy between two tasks.We have two tasks(A and B) after the Start Form in a Branch by Stage action. The Initial/Default Branch flows to task A, that has two options Complete or Send to the Other Brach that has Task B when they click submit. Task B on the Other Branch, has the exact same options so information can flow between A and B until A is satisfied and they choose to Exit and end the workflow.The issue with the Repeating Section that I'm having is that the data in that only seems to flow one way. Task A can receive the data from the Start form and Task B can receive it from A, but if B sends back to A, A still uses the Start Form’s data.I got around this with all the other variables by writing them into a workflow variables after the Start Form and maki

I have a start d/t and an end d/t fields on my NWC form. I would like to show a message to the user if their end date is = or < the start time. “is not” , “not equal”, or “equal” conditions are not available when comparing d/t fields in this version for forms. That seems odd to me Nintex wouldn’t make those options available.  The only way I can think of is to convert the d/t fields to strings in a variable. There are many more conditions available when comparing text strings. My VAR’s are setup the same  Just so I can see if the VAR’s are correctly populated, I’m displaying the values in the fields immediately below the d/t fields, for demo. But it’s not converting the strings in the same format. If they are not in the same format, I can’t compare them in rules.   Both of the fields are configured the exact same way in the Form and in Sharepoint 

I would like to use an Excel file containing a list of products in a data lookup control to select the part.I know how to do it from an Microsoft List.To avoid having to manually convert my Excel file into a Microsoft list, can I do it directly from an Excel file that is in my SharePoint online?orCan I automate the upload of the content of the Excel file into a microsoft list or into a table? 

I was recently doing tests which required passing some potentially long text strings between workflows. I had always worked under the assumption that the limitations of the Nintex Workflow variable type of Single line of text had a limitation of 255 characters: However, in testing this myself, discovered that there seems to be no real limit to what they can hold here is a input var in my workflow: Resulting contents of input_secretMessage once the workflow is ran with some absurd associated Data:I was unable to take a screenshot of the entire dataset, but it’s just over 7,800 Characters!My question is: Is there actually supposed to be a limit on these workflow variables or are any of the limits noted strictly regarding what SharePoint is able to consume as a Single Line of Text for one of its columns? 

I have a list of PDF which has a certain naming convention. In the naming convention is the ID number that relate to that PDF. I would like to create a folder using the ID number then put the PDF within it. Please advise,

Hello!I've been working with Laketree Dynamic Grid for a few months, and it has been working well both functionally and visually. However, today I logged in, and it’s not working anymore. I tried adding it again, but I get the following error: Does anyone know what might be happening or if there’s a similar alternative?https://gallery.nintex.com/t/LakeTree-Dynamic-Grid-pluginThank you very much!

Hi,I am using Nintex K2 Cloud.I have configured a Smartobject that takes 3 inputs and added it as one of the available Smartobjects on the Smartobject OData api page.The Smartobject uses a SQL server stored procedure to save data to a table. It has 3 parameters JSON nvarchar(max), filename nvarchar(200) and base64file nvarchar(max).The nvarchar(max) fields are configured as Memo in the smart object. The base64file value is a file that has been base 64 encoded.When testing the OData endpoint from postman it works perfectly when I use an encoded 400kb file, but I get an error when using an 840kb file : {    "error": {        "code": "",        "message": "Error reading HTTP body."    }}The 840kb file is 1.1mb when it is base 64 encoded.I suspect that there is a post size limit configured for the K2 OData implementation but I can find no documentation as to what that might be. From what I can find on the internet I can see that OData services typically have a limit of somewhere between 2

I’m migrating workflows to the Automation Cloud, and no matter if I build the table in HTML or the WYSIWIG editor, Nintex constantly messes with the formatting.  It will move whole rows to the top of the table.  The screen shot below is how the table in the email should look.But if I have to go back into the workflow to make an edit for any reason - not even to the Send Email action this happens:The divider rows get converted to header rows - even if I toggle that setting off or call it out as <td> instead of <th> - and then get moved to the top.This defeats their purpose, which is to break up and organize the data.It makes quick edits painstaking.  I don’t need a “smart” editor that actually gets it wrong every time it tries to override my actions.If someone from Nintex could PLEASE tell me how to get around this or give us the option to shut it off, I’d be most appreciative. I build for 10+ teams and own waaay too many workflows for troubleshooting to be this time-consumi
