Hi there, I have an issue with getting updated workflow variable values to apply to different branches within a run parallel paths action. My workflow variable is set to Go, and in branch #1 later changes to Stop (labelled “a” in snips, step 51 in workflow testing) if certain conditions are met, but this updated status does not apply to temporally subsequent actions in the second branch. The workflow variable in branch #2 only has the initial Go status at the log an instance and conditional branch (labelled “b” in snips, step 63 in workflow testing). We can see that WF_Reminder_Status = Stop at 8:49 AM (step 52) and = Go at 8:50 AM (step 62) without being further updated.. As a result, Reminder emails are incorrectly being sent. I have increased the “Pause by” durations, it makes no difference. Is there any way to get the workflow variables to be updated across the workflow/get the two branches to “talk” to each other? Otherwise they should just call them branch variables, if they are

In my tenant, we have user reported that seeing forms under My Nintex > Submit a form screen.We checked the form access level to make sure the user not part of access group.But the user still reports seeing number of forms.This is only known happy to one specific user, it doesn’t happen to other users.How can we trouble shoot the issue? Thanks.

I have a use case where we must include a QR code in receipts generated for tax payers. The app has been built in SharePoint 2019. I see NWC has a QR code generator, but (as far as I can tell), there is no way to get the QR code image or, alternatively, the generated receipt into SharePoint 2019 from NWC. I tried the below REST API but it requires the contents of the file be converted to binary I believe. Anyone who can help me out will be a life saver. https://[[server]]/sites/[[site]]/_api/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('[[folder sever relative URL]]')/files/add(url='[[file name with extension]]',overwrite=true)

Hi there,I am new to NAC and need a bit of help. I created a workflow that takes the data from one multi-text field called ‘Updates and Tracking Notes’ and moves it over to another field called ‘Total Updates and Tracking Notes” along with the name of the user(modified by) and the date and time of the entry(modified)Anyway the workflow is working, however, it is not only updating the one record in the list but ALL records in the list.  How do I isolate so that only the record that the user updated is updated and not all of the records? am i somehow creating a loop? i just dont know where and how.WF-Run If Field ‘updates and tracking notes’ is not emptySet workflow VariableBuild String

Can we create SMO for OData similar as K2 REST API Task to get users tasks

Hi all, Document generation is such a simple yet valuable method of getting quick wins on your automation journey.  You are saving your users a bunch of time putting repeatable documents together and you're also reducing errors. This article takes you through the process from start to finish and we'll use a combination of information gathered from a form and data stored in Nintex Tables to populate the document. Imagine a scenario where you are a council and you want to provide a service where customers can run a search of public spaces available for hire for weddings etc.  The output will be a nice one pager with a summary of their request and a list of the spaces in the area they have chosen. The person making the enquiry fills out a form similar to this one: This blog won't cover how to make this form - have a search in this Community or the help documentation if you need help with that.  The thing to keep in mind is that we'll be putting some of these values into the generated docu

Hi Is there a way to generate a report that shows the count of how many times a certain Minimode link has been viewed?Cheers!

Is there a version history limit in NAC? We are missing versions on a workflow that we actually need back - version that was in production - and it stops at version 32. I logged a ticket, but stumped because nothing in limits or version history help documentation mentions anything about version history limitations. Please advise, we are in panic mode, as we cannot revert back to production version.

Can someone please confirm how the retention works in Nintex Automation Cloud for the following components/sections of NAC? Tasks for a user (My Nintex) Workflow tracking for business owners (My Nintex) Instance data (Automate) Tasks data (Automate)Note: I have looked and looked and cannot find help documentation on this. Did I overlook this somewhere? We need to know for audit purposes, we have customers asking us about it. Thanks!

I have a document library in SharePoint and want to query documents metadata by a SmartObject event in a workflow. When using SmartObject Services Tester tool I am able to execute the “Get Documents Metadata” method and add a custom filter. This configuration returns the desired documents metadata.Now I want to configure this SmartObject call in Designer in a workflow event. But I really have no idea, how to apply the custom filter in Designer. Thank you.

Hello everyone, How I can restrict the view of the forms view on Nintex mobile based on the department as an exampleHR should only view the related forms to submitand so on for the others departments.

Hello everyone, We are working on developing internal audit department’s process, this includes a whole system containing various documents to be a part of it, a user will save each document and after entering all record user will submit it to their Line managers.User will be entering data which will be multiple at steps and somewhere list view which will be editable.Kindly guide me if any approach that will be better for this.

We currently use the Import Users feature with Process Manager to manage our user accounts.  If a user has changed positions or roles within the company, Process Manager adds the new role to the user profile without deleting the old role.  We now find that many users have multiple roles (some up to 5) associated with their user profile.  This, in turn, impacts the notification sent to users based on their previous roles, which they no longer are interested in receiving.  Is there a setting or a way to ensure Process Manager deletes the old roles if changed?  At present, this is a manual process of going into each user profile and deleting the old role, which is time-consuming.  

 We’re very new to NAC and have a situation where some of our employees don’t have work email addresses and will remain unauthenticated users.When they submit an expense reimbursement claim, we need them to select an approval manager but because they are unauthenticated, they cannot select a name from the people control on the form.  I’m wondering if there is another way we can have unauthenticated employees submit a claim form and select their approval manager where it triggers a task email for a manager to approve?Thank you.

Hello, I need to create a form on Nintex for the employees to fill thiere health details then save it in sharepoint list, then generate QR code for each employee if anyone scan it the Nintex form will be appearing without any approvals just displaying the form data as a Nintex form, How can I do it.

I am pulling in several fields from excel and splitting the columns out to fields on a webpage.  There is one of those split values that need to be pasted more than once - as in generating a password.  What options do I have to get that value in two boxes.  It will paste in the first cell, tab to the next cell but nothing happens.  Eventually the wizard will move past that point.

I am working on a wizard that copies data from excel to a website, resulting in the return of a new account number that I need to paste back to the same excel document.  Is that possible?  When completed, I would have all the original excel data used to create the account and the column following that data would be the new account number.

Hi seems i’m having an issue setting up a basic postgress data source Tried connecting to db with same credentials via other methods and no issue connecting. Error seems to point to an invalid IP which i assume is skuid? This Ip in error is always the same , no matter which host IP i use. Unsuccessful Skuid could not connect to the Data Source. Please check all configuration values and make sure the Data Source can be accessed from Skuid’s web servers in your region. {“message”:“Get "https://can56.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/skuid/api/v1/auth/token\”: dial tcp: lookup can56.salesforce.com on 10.43.0.10:53: no such host"}

I built some workflows in the last part of last year. Many are medium complexity. I’m looking for some guidance on how I can speed some of them up. The under performing workflows are mostly those that make numerous updates to the SharePoint online lists - status columns etc.The type of column does not seem to have any effect on the time taken, but it seems to take around 30 seconds, to a minute to make one update. The connector is using a list/library connection with a identity that has full site collection access permissions. On one particular workflow that basically sets a flag on each item in a list view (based on date constraints), takes more than two hours to run through the for-each loop. The corpus size in that instance was only about 210 items.On the previous version of Nintex for SharePoint 2016 on-premises, the same workflow would be done in around 10 minutes.Is there a method I can use to update list columns via a loop, in a more efficient way? One that will take a fraction
