We are working on a checklist form for one of our departments, for creating checklist we have used editable list view so that each shift member can mark their own tasks for that it is required to fetch task list in one of the column on initializing the list view, but we are stuck as this is not working.

Hi I noticed that the attachments (ie excel file) included in the start event form does not seem to get carried through the workflow for review / approval. Would you be able to give any advice on this please?thanks

Hi,Do we have SDK for SharePoint 2019 to create custom actions in Nintex workflow?  

Getting error when publishing the workflow in nintex. soap:ServerServer was unable to process request. ---> Failed to publish workflow: This feature has been temporarily disabled.

This may be an enhancement request. Please let me know your thoughts on this.We are trying to force the content of a “Note” in Process Manager to avoid wrapping text for long sentences. The hard return (“shift” + “enter”) forces the text onto the next row just fine, however, when also adding “spaces” after the hard return, the system ignores the spaces and wraps the text.Said another way: While in “edit” mode inside a “Note” what you see is Not what you get (when in view mode). In other words, the text wraps in view mode even though it “appears” differently in edit mode (spacing looks how we want).  See images. One (with a vertical line on Left) shows “edit” mode appearance, and the other image shows in “view” mode while opening “Note” in “Map”.Reason for doing this is to create a workaround that will make lists appear in a more readable format for the users of the process. Yes, we could create the list in an attachment, but prefer to keep the info in a “Note” that is nicely formatted

I have a form where the requestor can select multiple software application for a new employee (a Choice - Multiple) Action.Each piece of software has a license cost assigned.We want to show the requester the software the total cost of all the selections and the individual costs. We would be looking up the costs from a table.For example:The requestor chooses:Microsoft VisioMicrosoft ProjectI want to display (sample costs)    Microsoft Visio $100    Microsoft Project $200   Total $300They should see this before they hit submit on the form. I’m sure others have done this but I don’t see anything obvious.

Good day, I have a workflow in Nintex 2019 and it has to pause 5 minutes then send email notification, however nothing seems to be wrong but the notification are not sent, when I check the idle time, it’s always increasing which I think that could be the cause, every time a user complain of not receiving email notifications, I always have to restart the workflow and it works, is there a way to make the idle time less or stop the workflow from idling for too long, the below is a screenshot of a  workflow that has not sent through notification, the pausing time has already lapsed and notification are not sent.  

I face an issue when  some  users using the Approve action; it does not return any exceptions, and the K2 workflow does not execute this action

Add this to the Opp object and test this XML. Once you’ve clicked into the rich text field you can’t set any other fields to have focus. <skuid__page unsavedchangeswarning="yes" personalizationmode="server" showsidebar="false" showheader="false">    <models>        <model id="Opp" limit="1" query="true" createrowifnonefound="false" datasource="salesforce" sobject="Opportunity">            <fields>                <field id="Description_Rich_Text__c"/>                <field id="Name"/>            </fields>            <conditions/>            <actions/>        </model>    </models>    <components>        <skuid__buttonSet model="Opp" uniqueid="sk-1irP-15022">            <groups>                <skuid__buttonGroup uniqueId="sk-1irP-15020">                    <buttons>                        <skuid__button label="Edit in Popup" uniqueId="sk-1irP-15021">                            <action

Nintex 2016/SP 2016 on prem - Need to set the destination CT for a DocGen PDF (Output file URL is stored in a variable) routes/moves the PDF to the destination document library. docgen works great then we build a string for the MMD field call web svc to set that MMD field Update fields for CT in destination library…. this is the issue. Each configuration attempt receives an error in the WF.Narrowed it down to WHERE statement in the ‘Update Item’ action. without the pdf list id (we used to get when using muhimbi action to convert to PDF) how do we configure so that the item knows which item?  the ID will be different. *have done this successfully with Muhimbi action - in that solution, we used the List Item ID that was stored in a variable in the muhimbi action.  the DocGen doesn’t have the same configuration. 

Hello, My form include a Multi line controller, I would like to remove the scrollbar and allow dynamic size of the controller. To do this I created a css class auto-expand-textarea, see below. It works but my controller is overlapping other controllers of the form. Resize at startup is Yes.I spent hours trying to solve this, chatgpt also, including javascript… still no answer :/ anyone else in the same situation? .custom-form {     display: block;     width: 100%; /* Le formulaire prend toute la largeur */     overflow: hidden; /* Empêche les débordements */ }.custom-layout {     display: flex;     flex-direction: column;     gap: 15px; /* Espacement entre les contrôles pour éviter les chevauchements */ }.auto-expand-textarea {     min-height: 50px;     max-height: 500px;     overflow-y: hidden;     resize: none;     width: 100%;     box-sizing: border-box; }.other-control {     position: relative;

Following a number of years of heavy usage in one of our applications based on Nintex for SharePoint we are noticing a degradation of performance in that particular SharePoint site. Upon further investigation we found that the root cause of this issue is the amount of even receivers stored at site level (around 60,000)  The followng query gives us the result shown further down SELECT         class,count(*)    FROM        [dbo].[EventReceivers]            group by class    order by class  The name column (Not displayed above) shows “Created By Nintex Workflow Start Action “ and the class column (as displayed above) shows  “Nintex.Workflow.Activities.Services.WorklfowCompletedEventReceiver”Is there a way of purging these unwanted event receivers especially for items whose workflow has completed?Thanks

In my workflow, I create hyperlinks for my documents uploaded to my start form to display them in a second form. My uploaded documents are saved in SharePoint Online.  I find it difficult to see that there are 2 documents. I was wondering if I can have a carriage returns between my two links? to have the 2 hyperlinks on 2 linesI tried <br>, but the system doesn’t want to save it. When I return to my action, the <br> is no longer there. Or maybe adding more spaces between the two links? Or other characters?This is how I create my hyperlinks:<a href=”(file URL)”>(file name)</a>Result into a txt variableIn my second form, I have a label with this txt variable in the text box 

In this blog I want to go over how Nintex can help streamline and automate the loan origination use case. Using Nintex Automation Cloud, we can bring together the loan process into one application that can handle the initial loan application, necessary internal approvals, generation of the loan documentation for the applicant to sign and updates to statuses and send notifications as the process progresses to keep everyone up to date on this application.A fully customizable and externally available form makes it easy to collect the necessary information from the loan applicant then send this information through the necessary approval steps.   With Nintex Automation Clouds advanced logic, the workflow can handle complex branching logic needed to determine who needs to approve the submission based on type of loan, loan amount, etc.  Reminders and escalations can also be built into the approval tasks within the workflow to make sure that any SLA’s for the timing of processing loan applicat

How do we get all results to be stored in a variable so that we can later use that variable to send out an email to multiple email addresses?In a Site WF running dailyThere are multiple Sql Queries configured the same (just on different views in db) pulling back multiple email (contacts) Storing in a collection variable - in the WF History, we can see only one email address is being stored (there should be several) When testing the query in the wf, we get multiple results - SQL Query is a successwe want the collection variable to take each email address and separate it by a comma or a semicolon - for emailing purposes. 

Hi there We followed this process to uninstall Nintex Live framework: Then we updated Nintex to latest version, and all of this came back. What is the process to prevent the Nintex Live framework components from coming back after each Nintex update? Thank you

I deleted a Nintex form. Is there a way for me to retrieve that form? I’m not able to locate it.

We have created Sharepoint online connection with the necessary permissions.Quering a list etc. works fine but when I try to use the get a file action. I encounter the following error.Received an error response from the connector: {"message":"[SP.ATH.Forbidden] Error Downloading file contents for filename 'blanko.xlsx' for the site 'redacted'.

I know there is an auto-complete feature in workflow designer but how do I force the form to auto complete based on a condition?  We are attempting to create a three-attempt quiz. I want the task form to be “completed” the second they make a 3rd attempt to avoid users from refreshing the form. I don’t want to overly complicated more than I already have had to do with just trying to make a concept of a “quiz” in NAC similar to a quiz using MS Forms. Any thoughts on an OOB solution to make this happen? 

Hello, I have an error in the task form when I try to add the repeated section that was added at the beginning, the idea is to show me in the task form the information that was entered at the beginning in the section but when adding the variable I get this error 

I’m pulling data into a list that contains a “/” but when then only want to retain what is left of the “/”.  The number of characters can vary.  Help ?  Thanks 

Hello,Why can’t I have swim-lanes in subprocesses within the Process Model?I’ve created a high-level process model, consisting of a few collapsed subprocesses, I can click into the collapsed subprocess, yet I cannot add swim-lanes, and this is where I want to actually put them to determine the roles of who is doing what.I’m using process model as its still at a high level and its concept/designing a business process, so I don’t want to start doing business processes until we have the basic concept “signed off” as such.Is there a reason for not being able to use swim-lanes in collapsed subprocesses?Is there any plans to add this in the future?ThanksWayne

Hi all, in my previous question I asked how to use Workflow API to check tasks assigned to a user. However, I find that the API returns all the tasks. If I have the workflow instance folio and the workflow name, can I directly filter the response to get the information I need? Thank you.

We are a Skuid on Salesforce customer and are preparing to migrate to Hyperforce. Has anyone else using skuid on salesforce migrated to Hyperforce? Would appreciate if someone can share their migration experience and any pointers they have for us. Thanks!
