Will there be a quiz option for forms in the future similar to what Microsoft provides with their forms?  I ask because we are using a MS “Quiz” form that allows for a timer. We’d like to move this into Nintex but can’t think about any OOB ideas to make this happen. 

Hi there, I’m wanting to get some advice - particularly from organisations with regulatory functions eg. Councils.  We have had a change in the system we use for our document management and while looking to change wording in processes to the new system (which is a manual process of 400+ processes), System tag change is easy - it’s wording within the process that causes manual work. What do other people do in a process when referring to saving a document in a particular system?  Do you use the actual system name (which could change any time and mean more rework) or do you use a generic name  - like Record Management System, EDRMS etc.Keen to hear others ideas.

Hello, When trying to reference a field in a SOQL query, it now adds slashes (\). What is the correct way to write the where clause?  Where Contribution__c = \'<<Contract_Id>>\'  I tried removeing the \ but it comes back when savingthanks for your input!

Hello,I am building a simple Nintex Cloud start form that only has 4 fields and one of the fields is a People picker field which works perfect with grabbing actual users but a actual SharePoint group is expected to be picked in this field.  Is it possible at all to connect the People Picker field to allow SharePoint groups as a option or would a text field need to be used somehow?The current 2013 Nintex On Prem Form allows the people picker to connect to either People or SharePoint group.Thnx

Can NAC communicate or interact with a file share?

I am using Nintex to create an invoice snapshot. When the button is clicked a document is created that has all the invoice line items. If some of those line items are rejected or ineligible, I need Nintex to not add them to the snapshot. I have tried adding a filter to the relationship for Line Items but it is still returning five lines instead of four. (One was rejected)

I am using NWC.  I have a start event variable that is showing as an integer (it is a People Picker field).  The Nintex designer and Sharepoint List has this field has a ‘People Picker’ AND has both ‘Users’ and ‘Allow selection of: People and Groups’.  Show field is set: Name (with presence).  I did try changing this to ‘Work email’.  My question is (I hope above is enough information), I want to be able to pull the email address for a single user or a group so the workflow can send an email.  What would be a way (or ways) to get this accomplished? P.S.  I don’t seem to have this trouble if I only use the ‘Allow selection of: People Only’Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks, Lois

Would anyone know what this error is when generating a document? I am so confused and cannot figure out how to solve this. “Error generating document. Message: The database 'BaseLDS' has reached its size quota. Partition or delete data, drop indexes, or consult the documentation for possible resolutions.”

Hello,I have a question since I feel somehow that I am stuck at the moment.The setup is a K2 Five Version 5.xx (Evaluation).In a MSSQL Database exists a table “products”.I created a Advanced Smart Object for this Table with the methods Read, Create, List, Delete, Update.In the Management application - /Categories/…/ I can call the create method from the smart object. This is working fine, the new product appears in the database.The Problem is:If I create a workflow, which has two Steps, first the “Task” - approval step. 2nd the SmartObject Create Step. WorkflowThe new Product won’t be created in the database.The Workflow completes without any error. In the Reporting from the Workflow the “Data Audit” shows me that all information from the Form are available in the Workflow. Also you can see all paths are green which indicates that the WF finished successfully.My question is, does anyone has an idea why the create method is working outside of a workflow but not within a workflow?greetz

It should show dates which user has selected, when it comes to UK region for approval, Request will come from all over the world.Can anyone help with this please?

Hello everyone. After updating the platform to 5.7, the function became available to us Style ProfileThe idea arose to bring the forms to a modern look.Share examples of what you have been able to achieve in this direction. If there is an opportunity to share styles, I will be very happy  

In the most recent Proces Manager Update 4.11.19, the team have removed the ability to edit documents directly within search results.This has massively reduced the ease of use of the platform, as Document editors and document owners now need to go to All Documents > Search for the document > Edit, when previously they could just do it from the search screen.There does not seem to be any reason behind this change outside of aesthetics, but it has made it much more difficult and inconvenient for document owners and editors to administer their documents. 

Hello,I am working on migrating a workflow that assigns a task but also Stores that task ID into a variable easily.  In Nintex Automation Cloud that “store task ID” is not easily available so how would I go about being able to retrieve this approval task ID so that it can be used further in the workflow to filter items?Thanks N Advance

Easy method in running a report of all workflows in production and the workflow owner(s) listed? 

I am trying to match dates.  One date is ‘Created’ to which I add 30 days.  Second date is what I want to compare, Today’s date.  If they match then I send a notification email to customer.  I can’t locate / see how I can get ‘todays’ date out on Nintex workflow.  I want to use a ‘If then run’ to see if both dates match but don’t know how to get today’s date.  I imagine it would be something to do with ‘date’ function, something akin to / like ‘date now’ but can’t locate that. Any help appreciated.

Is there a report to show processes not viewed within a date range?

Hello, I accidentally deleted my sharepoint list nintex form, is there any way to recover?

I have developed a workflow which is used to extract items from a list on a monthly basis for business finance. Below is a description of the approach I have taken.Step 1: The workflow has to query the list to capture the required items. This is done with a Query List action, filtered by the date range (first to last days in a calendar month). This can result in anything from 800 to 3000 items in the target range.Step 2: We then need to loop through the Items collection and break it into individual collections, one per column needed. There are 14 columns that are of interest.Step 3a: Next, another loop is needed to extract each collection item into a usable variable, which can then be used in the output stage. Within this loop is a Run-If action that batches in chunks of 200, using a row count variableBatching in 200sStep 3b: Now the collections are run though a parallel action and apply some date/time formatting as well as Regex to remove problematic special characters and line feeds.

Hello,I have a SFX skuid REST data source that queries a Snowflake REST API.  I am able to successfully get results on page load with query on page load on, but when I turn off query on page load and I add a button action to query the REST data source model, I don’t get any results.  Rest Data Source Model - When Query on Page load is true, I get results on page load.Query Model Button Action - When I click this button, the model doesn’t return any results when Query on Page Load is false.  Also, if I click this button after page load with Query on Page load on and there are results in my model, the data is removed and new data is not successfully replaced.   Is there anything I am doing wrong with my action for querying the Rest Data source?

Hi, I have a workflow / scheduled task that runs daily and under a certain condition (30 days no required feedback received) I’m to send a notification email and add another instance of a pdf (they got initially) they need to still fill out.  Problem is I can’t get the pdf attached to the notification email in this scheduled task workflow.  So this question is how to get an attachment (pdf) into a scheduled task workflow email ? Get the scheduled task to repeat.   I then use ‘Query a list’ to bring in what I check on I in the condition then check, based on a condition / interrogating what is in a certain column, if its still blank (not received) I then I am to send a notification to customer finish this please. Tested w/o attachment I get email. So the scheduled task run is ok. Its just how to get an attachment into a scheduled task email sent.I tried creating a variable type file, wanted to then ‘set a variable value’ but variable created to contain attachment is grayed out.  See belo

Hi Everyone,I’m one of the product managers working on NAC at Nintex and we have some exciting enhancements coming that will improve the deployment process of Workflows between tenants. I’m looking for enthusiastic volunteers to be the first to try out these new capabilities!But that’s not all - we’re also working on additional “ALM” type features and would love your input in shaping them. If you use a multi-tenant setup for deployment purposes and/or use the Import Workflow API and eager to try out these new features, while also sharing your insights and wish list for the platform, simply leave a note here or drop me an email at rick.demarco@nintex.com to organise a time to chat further..Cheers,  Rick
