Hello,I'm trying to configure the mail server in the Nintex RPA Console, but I'm unable to complete the configuration.When I click Test Notifications, the test fails and the following error is displayedCould you please help me identify the cause of this issue and advise how to resolve it?I have attached a screenshot of the error.Thank you. 

I’m developing a relatively “complex” Kryon solution where a top-level wizard calls multiple embedded wizards and global functions, many of which themselves call nested embedded wizards.It’d like to be able to “throw an exception” that will handle the error and gracefully terminate the solution.Q: How can I achieve this in Kryon RPA?UPDATE 6/24/26:Basically, I’m looking for a Nintex RPA equivalent of “try/catch”. Some Nintex ACs have an “Exception” clause.  I’m looking for something more general. A potential (ugly!) workaround might be to set a global “error status code” variable, then manually check it everywhere :(

I’m coming from Foxtrot (“Nintex RPA LE”), where it’s easy to single-step through every action (there’s a little button in the lower left corner).  And it’s easy to inspect local variables, lists, etc. etc. (in the pane on the right).Q1: With “Debugger > Trace variables”, where can I INSPECT the variables?     <= The only way I’ve found is to add an explicit “View Variables” Advanced Command Q2: How can I “single step” through EVERYTHING (Advanced commands and Core Actions, Wizards and embedded Wizards and Global functions)?  <= The only way I’ve found is “Debugger > Do it”, then click a button to “pause”        I HAVEN’T found any way to automatically stop execution and each and every action :)

I’m trying to make a couple of simple “Hello world” queries with the Nintex RPA REST API.The documentation examples use Postman, but that’s unavailable in my environment.  So I’m trying to use Powershell instead.My second API call, a graphql query to get the RPA version, is failing with “InvalidOperation”.Here’s the code:# Get Access Token:$response = "XXX"$uri = "http://MY_NINTEX_HOSTNAME/auth/realms/Kryon/protocol/openid-connect/token"$contentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" # Implicitly set to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" for POST method calls$formBody= @{client_id="kryon-public-api"grant_type="password"username="MY_NINTEX_USER"password="NINTEX_USER_PASSWORD"}$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri -Method POST -ContentType $contentType -Body $formBody$access_token = $response.access_token#Write-Host "Get Access Token response: " $response #Write-Host "access_token: " $access_token # Get RPA Version:$response = "XXX"$uri = "http://MY_NINTEX_HOSTNAME/nintex-public-

I need to create a wizard that opens a web app, logs on, clicks through some screens, and does a “Print, Save as .pdf”.I’m starting the Wizard with a “Run Program” advanced command, Program=Firefox, Command line=the application’s URL  <= This works  Firefox comes up, and I’m ready to log in.PROBLEM: I click “Append Recording”…. and nothing’s recorded.  <= ERROR: Nintex Wizard Editor: Some of the recorded steps do not appear...since they used applications and/or websites that have not yet been defined.WEB PAGE:NINTEX ADMIN:I defined a new application (“OHM”), specified Application URL Contains “URL” and Window Caption Contains “OHM/Web Logon” and “Saved Changes”.I then went into “Wizard Catalog > Test Library > General > Supported Applications” and enabled “OK”, ensuring the my company was a “Linked Company”I’m successfully running other applications in the same library.As you can see from the screenshot, the Firefox window doesn’t happen to have a “Caption”Q: What do I n

Invoice processing is one of the most common automation scenarios I encounter across organisations. Finance teams are still manually opening PDFs, reading invoice data, and entering values into ERP systems.With Nintex RPA, Python, and Azure Document Intelligence, we can build an intelligent document processing (IDP) pipeline that automatically extracts invoice metadata and converts it into structured formats such as CSV and JSON. The Automation ArchitectureThe overall automation pattern is straightforward. Nintex orchestrates the workflow while Python integrates with Azure’s AI services. Workflow OverviewThe goal is to transform an unstructured invoice PDF into structured business data that downstream systems can consume. Why Azure Document Intelligence?Azure Document Intelligence provides AI models that can extract structured data from documents without custom training. In my personal experiences with recent POC builds and testing of various other services, I have found the model to b

We recently installed Nintex RPA 25.11. In Nintex Admin, we’ve defined user “testuser”, and granted “Console Mgr/API calls=Y”.Nginx is configured for HTTP only (port 80).  We’re not using A/D.When I browse to http://myserver-fqdn/console, I get “HTTP 403: Forbidden”.  <= In other words, I’m browsing using my Windows login, vs. Nintex “testuser”Q: What should I do in order to access ConsolePlus?

PROBLEM:I'm trying to create a wizard (Nintex/Kryon RPA 25.11) that executes the following .bat file:  pushd \\myshare\appdirectory  myapp.exe arg1=abc arg2=xyz  "MyApp" is a Windows .exe.  There's a link to the .bat file on my desktop.  MyApp needs to run from “appdirectory”.I "Start with a recording", double-click on the .bat file, and run through the initial prompts in the app.When I stop the recording, I get:  Some of the recorded steps do not appear in the wizard...  Ask your administrator to add these applications/websites from Nintex Admin, then record the steps again:  1) explorerI've defined "MyApp" and Windows File Explorer ("explorer") in Nintex Admin. The first step I see in the failed recording is the first dialog "MyApp" displays (along with all subsequent dialogs).  The recording doesn’t include running the .bat file.My .bat file never actually shows Windows explorer - it just runs the app.Q: How can I get the Wizard to invoke the bat file: to double-click on the desktop

Hi,We are running an unattended Nintex/Kryon RPA robot on a Windows VM.The robot successfully logs in and start te task, but when running without an active RDP connection, UI steps fail and screenshots are completely black.When an RDP session is connected, the same steps work correctly, which suggests the desktop is not being rendered when no display/session is present.What could be causing the desktop not to render in unattended mode?

After a restart on the server in which the system is installed, the robot with which the processes are run is in down status, and manual entry is needed to idle it.Until it takes on missed processes.Is there an option that the robot will be connect automatically and will not wait for someone to do it?

Hi! Suddenly I get the error below.It worked for a while.The credentials are correct, I can send emails, and it works as "get email trigger" in the console.Something seems to be wrong with IMAP. What could be the reason for the sudden change?Thanks.  

We were hoping to make a Global Function that could take a variable with delimited headers and do the following: For each header, create a new variable that is named using this syntax: Header + “-ColNum” Value for the variable would be equal to the column’s number, relative to the other other headers in the delimited variable.  As an example, a delimited variable like this: “Account Number, Balance, Address”Would result in the following variables:Account Number-ColNum 1 Balance-ColNum 2 Address-ColNum 3 In future steps of the wizard, this would allow us to use the new variables in place of hardcoding the column values. This would also make it so that if the order of items changed in the delimited data, the Wizard would still work correctly since the global function would be determining where that particular column is in the data at runtime.  Unfortunately, we can’t reference a variable in the variable name portion of the of the “Set a Variable” action.  Is there anyway to make variab

Hi, I try to do the tutorial on RPA developer and try to record the Zoho website. After record, some recorded steps do not appear. How to add the application/website?  Thank you.

HiI need to count the number of attachments in an incoming email and get the number as a variable.I tried save them in a folder but could’nt find a way to count that too…Any ideas?   

We are happy to announce the release of System Manager v1.2.0. With lots of improvements, this release makes upgrading Nintex RPA to the latest version a much better experience. Release note.System Manager v1.2.0 comes as part of a minor release of Nintex RPA - v24.4.4.0. Release note.Available for download from Customer Central.

One of my customers is using a native application that runs on IE6. Since IE has been deprecated, my customer runs it with MS Edge Chromium under IE6 compatibility mode and can run it well as expected. Next, they want to use an RPA solution and one of the requirements is to interact with the application that runs under IE6 compatibility mode (the interaction is to do the web scraping).So, I tested it using Nintex RPA and found that the web scraping failed to detect the web page (no dotted rectangle appeared). I tested it with another page that is not related to IE6 compatibility mode and it works well (dotted rectangle appeared as described below).  Does anyone have an experience like this? Or could it be a limitation of features from Nintex RPA which could not support IE6 with compatibility mode? Need any input on this. 

I’m trying to figure out what services are required to be running on the server and workstation for the unattended robot to function. Does anyone know? RPA Version 24.4.2.5 but would take details from any version at this point.

Guys,Does anyone in this community have an experience related to the plugin.net, whereas every time we reopen the wizard, the .net plugin fails to run? The error message shown was “Error”. How can we avoid the issue?Thanks before.

My question has two parts. I’ve been working on an issue with the Send Email function since March of 2024. Tech support has me in an endless loop of try this and send the logs. It works if I run the Wizard through the Studio but only when using a copy of the Studio folder on the local Desktop not the regular installation location of the Studio. But it does not work if I run the same Wizard with the Robot using a trigger. (The Wizard runs but the emails are not received.) Any ideas what could be causing this? This is the error in the log:          {"@t":"2025-02-10T17:39:33.1116710Z","@mt":"The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.","@l":"Error","EnvironmentUserName":"MYCOMPANY\\nintex","msg":"The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.","add":{},"exc":{"Message":"The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.","Data":[],"InnerException":null,"TargetSite":"Int32 ReadCfwsAndThrowIfIncomplete(System.String,

I faced an issue: “Access is denied. Check credentials and try again” when trying to get an email message from M365 using “Get email message DAC”.This issue happened with the latest version of Nintex RPA 23.11.1. When I tested it with version 22.9.3 with the same configuration as the latest version (Dynamic Command version is 22.9.03.05.23), no error was found, and the messages could be retrieved.The different between Dynamic Commands 23.11.0.1 with 22.9.03.05.23, no server field exists like on IMAP or POP3.Is there any way to solve the issue?FYI, I did followed the step by steps Working with M365 Exchange Modern Authentication configuration (https://help.nintex.com/en-US/kryonrpa/23.11/Content/Console/WorkingwithMicrosoft365ExchangeModernAuthentication/Azure_Configuration_for_Modern_Authentication.htm?tocpath=Studio%7CCredentials%20Vault%7CWorking%20with%20Microsoft%20365%20Exchange%20Modern%20Authentication%7C_____1)Appreciate if anyone could have any input or suggestion to solve thi

Hi,I have two Nintex RPA development environments with the same versions, which are 24.4.2.5. I have created some RPA use cases in the first environment and want it to be replicated in the second environment. Then I exported and imported to the second environment using dwiz files. When I tried to import one use case, an error occurred with the following message, “Unsupported amount (2) of imported libraries!”.I have checked for those two environments and all have the same configurations including with its applications defined in the Nintex Admin.Has anyone had an experience like this?In the meantime, whenever I want to replicate the flow, I must use the import through the local wizard (save as a lwiz file).Thanks before for any input.  

I am trying to find a way for several bots to work from the same shared Excel file.  Assume there is a large list of data (Account Numbers) in one column and another column beside it called “RPA Status”.  When one bot starts to work an account, it looks at the Excel file to find the first Account Number with an empty RPA Status field.  It then copies this Account Number and writes “In Process” to the RPA Status field so that another bot will not pick up this Account Number.  It writes back “Complete” once it has completed whatever process it is doing.  Ideally, I’d like to have multiple machines pulling in and writing back to this Excel file. The issue is that if I try running another bot pulling from the same file, the Excel is in “Read Only” status until the other workflow is completely finished.  Is there a way to write to an Excel file and immediately close out the connection so that another bot can write to it?  I know SQL is an option, but that raises several other issues.
