In NAC, is it possible to assign a task without sending out an email?  I think the functionality to control a task email was available in On-Prem, and not available in O365.  Looking at the NAC task configuration, I don’t see a way to disable the email, but I just wanted to double check . 

As I understand, NAC is not programmed to accept additional valid phrases that map to "Approve" outcome in flexi task express approval (similar to Nintex 2013 and O365). I suppose you could create a custom outcome for each common response (e.g. Approved, ok, yes, etc), but that would significantly expand our 9 branch state machine workflow. Are there other options or is valid phrases on the roadmap for NAC?

Hello,I am working on a Nintex 2013 Workflow that I need to migrate to Nintex Cloud environment.  The current 2013 start form allows you to create SharePoint fields and assign right to the start form.  In Nintex cloud start form how do you allow the start form fields to connect to SharePoint fields/people picker fields?Thanks N Advance for any help

I have a ~20 page document that has variable content that I’m pulling from SQL server to populate data points throughout the document. I would like to use NAC to allow the user to select a location and then have it auto-populate all the dynamic content (this is all doable). The problem I’m running into is trying to set the document for printing. By default, even if you add pages to an NAC form, it just puts page breaks wherever they are needed rather than allowing me to define where I want those page breaks. I tried creating custom CSS using “page-break-after: always;” but calling the style does not accomplish the goal. I also tried putting the style directly into the HTML but it strips it out whenever I click off the HTML form and it goes back to the WYSIWIG so it does not stay.  I checked out the CSS Guidelines and I don’t see a way to do what I’m trying to do. Also, all the other posts out there don’t apply to NAC so I won’t bother posting them here as resources.  Thanks in advance

Using Nintex Automation Cloud for Document Generation we would like to add some links to the generated document.  This works fine with two defects.  First we can only show the URL rather than friendly text in the final PDF.  Second and more significantly if the URL is longer than one line the link fails because it stops at the line break.   

Constructing a rule so that depending on a “reason code” that is selected, 2 additional columns are now required to be filled in.  It works just fine for a single selection but if I duplicate the rule and then modify to reflect the 2nd choice, only 1 of the rules will work.  For building a single rule, as you see in the attached, you don’t get an option to add an “or” condition….only “and”.

Issue DescriptionWhen you first create a reference that loops through and assigns approvers for a task to a variable, the task step will reassign the task to another group of users which will send the Workflow back to re-create the reference, which will loop through the new approvers. However, when running it a second time, if the task is redirected, the loop item reference appears to be empty which causes the task to fail due to no recipients.Error Message:The following error occurs: "At lease one destination should be set"ResolutionThe fix is available in:Nintex Automation (5.7) Fix Pack 13.

Hi, Can i check if there is any way to trigger nintex workflow 2016 (on prem) workflow from Power Automate? Understand that in Power Automate, we are able to call SharePoint onprem REST API to perfrom some action. However for nintex is SOAP web service. as such are we still able to make the same call from Power Automate?

I suspect we’re suffering from the issue described in this post by @MParris. The fix for this issue is found in version v23.11.2.1, but I’m only able to find the release notes for v23.11.2.5, which don’t seem to mention anything related to the described issue. (https://public.kryon.io/RPA-Versions/23.11/23.11_Latest/23.11.2/23.11.2%20Release%20Notes.txt) Can anyone point me in the right direction to find release notes for previous versions of the program, like v23.11.2.1?  I’m hoping it’s not that we have to make a support case.  Thank you!

I have a grouped table of data and I want to sum up the values above - so I’m using the sum(Above) function.This works great until I have negative values in the merge fields - and it ignores them.Any thoughts of a work around or a different function to use? 

I have migrated to SharePoint 2019 from SharePoint 2013. All is well, mostly :)Workflows continued to run, which is what I was most worried about. However, I have several forms that are anonymous that were previously rendering anonymously, but post-migration are not.  I have verified that other anonymous non-nintex pages/forms are accessible. I have republished the form and they continue to ask for credentials.  I have the direct link built in an email for the user to click to complete the correct form, and it does send them to the correct form, but I noticed that 2019 redirects them from the direct link such as "https://domain/sites/site/lists/list/editform.aspx?id=1"to"https://domain/sites/site/_layouts/15/NintexForms/Modern/DisplayForm.aspx?List=8b78eee1-d027-4377-a90e-ee0f0fdb5152&ID=1"  So it appears that there is no anonymous access to this new location. However, I'm not sure how to verify this. Also, if there is a way to not redirect them that would be ideal.

Trying to figure out a way to generate a list of all Scheduled workflows on a site collection?  I know I can see all schedules on sites but trying to get a list of all across a site collection.

We are currently facing a challenge in our project where we are trying to integrate our K2 environment with a RESTful API.The API requires authentication using the OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow. We have attempted to configure the system via the “Management/#Authentication/OAuth/Resources” pathway. However, we are consistently redirected to the login page.Our objective is to generate a token without user interaction, as this is a backend API. We would appreciate any guidance on this matter. Thank you.  

I'm trying to find out where in the SharePoint list settings the use of K2 Smartform for New/Edit/Display actions is stored. During the migration from SP on-prem to SP online, we are overwriting, resetting these settings.I've searched the list properties and tried using PowerShell, but couldn't find anything.Does anyone know?

Hello,We want to track SLA in a workflow we designed in K2. The aim is to calculate and show that the tasks are done within a specified time interval and how much time is left. And the important thing here is that these time calculations are made according to working time. For example, if this time does not run during the lunch break or Actions need to be taken, such as stopping a task when it returns. Has anyone worked on this issue? Working time makes things a little difficult. I would like to thank those who can give their ideas in advance.

Hello, i have two lists in a Sharepoint Site: First list, what contract type did a user subscribe to?Second list, duration of each type of contract.What i need to do is, through NAC, i want to calculate the end date of a contract by checking if the contract type matches. So, for Paul, check the duration of the type A contract in the second list (150 days), add it to the start date of the first list and put the result in the end date. I need to automate this task for a very big list, and i’ll run this workflow only once i think to get the end date for the entirety of my list. I tried using the query a list tasks but i’m stuck and don’t know how to move forward with this task.Thanks in advance.

This one is really curly for me and had me stumped for a few weeks now. So my form has several repeating sections which are part of a larger form complex change request form. These repeating sections are labeled as ‘Tasks’ that a person would carry out as part of a change request. This would then go to the manager for approval, however the requirement is for the manager to have the ability to make changes to the data that is in the repeating tables if that person needs to. My issue is find a way to do this as when the manager received the request the repeating sections are read only.  Any ideas ?p.s. the data in this form goes into a SharePoint listCheers 

Is anybody using Promapp as their document management system? If so, how are you doing review reporting? As the upload date only shows when pulling a document report, instead of the 'Review Date'. Any ideas on a workaround or is Promapp improving the reporting from a Document perspective? Thanks!

SharePoint On Prem 2019 form rule to validate if drop down B contains (or starts with) drop down ATwo drop downs Drop Down A - Drop Down B I need a rule that will only allow people to select an option from drop down B that starts with or contains part of what was already chosen from drop down A. Ex:Drop down A = “Account Balance”Drop down B = out of the 100+ options I need to make sure people pick one of the “Account Balance - options” Not sure on how to accomplish this so figured I’d reach out. Please let me know if the above isn’t enough information.
