Hi, I am trying to figure out how to send out a notification anytime a field in a responsive form is modified. I tested this by  using a  the “SharePoint - Update list item” but it continuously runs and multiple notifications continue to push out… I don’t see within the conditions to select “modified date” anywhere. Is there another way to attack this?

Hello,We have an existing classic Nintex form that we want to add a button where upon clicking it will send an email to a particular address with subject and body on it, can this be done using java script or maybe start a Nintex workflow?Much appreciated any response.Thank you. 

I have Nintex 2013 at the moment.We can store our Distribution lists in a person/group column.I get a value like “c:0+.w|s-1-5-21-602162358-884357618-682003330-318213” when i query the column in Workflow.How do i get to the distribution lists email address from this value? Regards

I may be wrong about this, but I was hoping for confirmation on a possible change in the way hidden controls work. I know that if a control is directly hidden, it will not pass a value into the flow, but that doesn’t seem to have been the case if the control is visible but in a hidden group. For the past year, I’ve operated with the understanding that a control itself has to be set to visible to pass a value to the flow. Today, however, I noticed that a visible control in a hidden group no longer passes the value. It was a couple years ago when I was learning Nintex that I found out about how the visible controls in a hidden field work, and so I may have not fully understood it. So, I wanted to see if something has changed in the way a control’s value is handled from inside a hidden group.

Hi Team,Is there any existing K2 stored procedure that we can use to create our own custom worklist?The issue I am facing is that when a user sets Out of Office (OOF), I am unable to display the corresponding requests to the person to whom the tasks have been delegated.Could you please let me know which table stores the OOF configuration, or advise on the logic required to retrieve these delegated requests?

Hi. I am searching for conferences coming up between Oct 2026-Oct 2027. I didn’t see any released to the events tab yet. Can you please let me know if there are spoilers you wouldn’t mind giving me a heads up on? My employer needs to plan in advance for funding, approvals, etc. Thanks. 

Is it possible to run DocGen package to generate document in Salesforce as a guest user (i.e. unauthenticated user), from either Apex or Flow?

Hi everyoneI added the File Upload control to a form. I tested it with uploading a small txt file, and the form submission hangs. The item is created in the list, but the item has no attachment in it.Is there something I am doing wrong?RegardsKirk

I have a component workflow for which I want to move - dynamically names files from one folder to another IF a certain condition is met.  BUT I will not necessarily know the file ID but will know a part of the file name and the dynamic file folder.  So I tried query list to pull the Library in using  variable and I KNOW the folder and subfolders exists along with the file as an earlier branch has created them and I can actually see them in SharePoint.  BUT the workflow keeps saying the folder does not exist.Wondered if the query list was returning nothing and that’s the  cause of the failure.Oh and Retrieve item returns something but I cannot use it as a collection for a Loop for each action.

In posts from 2022 Nintex said they were looking at introducing reporting features for Checklists - we’re looking at tracking the progress of all our clients using this but want to be able to see things like average time to go through the process, each person’s number of checklists, etc.Is there an ETA on any updates to the Checklists function that might introduce reporting features?

Hi,Currently I'm working on a workflow and part of it is to create an item in a SharePoint 2019 list, which contains a Hyperlink column. However, I would like to add a short description text to show i.s.o. the URL. So I set the column to [Link URL], [Descrption]. With a hardcoded description text all seems fine, but as soon as I replace it with a column or variable value, the space is replaced with a non-breakable space code: [URL].%C2%A0[Title]. If I type a text in front of the description column/variable (e.g. [URL]. About [Title]), it works fine. Putting the column/variable inside a inline function does not help either. Nor 2 spaces between separtor and column/var. See attachment a screenshot. The Nintex 2019 Workflows version I currently use is: “5.2.7.0 - International”Is this a bug?Kind regards,Jean-Pierre

I am trying to deploy a package created on my DEV server to the Production environment.The solution is related to a SharePoint Online site, and I am working with K2 on-prem 5.8 FP17 + SharePoint Online.When deploying to Production, I encounter the exact issue described here: In my case, this does not appear to be a permission issue. For the deployment, I am logged directly into the Production server and using a SharePoint admin account that also has K2 server administrator rights, so permissions should not be the problem.Do you have any suggestions on how I can resolve this issue?Thank you

I am working on establishing a standard process for deploying Nintex workflows and forms across Dev, Test, Build, and Prod environments, instead of relying solely on key-based exports. The issue with keys is that they have expiration dates and can expire before QA/UAT approvals are finished, and generating new keys doesn't align with compliance requirements for standard promotion procedures. To address this, I would like to use the Export/Import packaged workflow APIs. My preference is to export workflows as packages, store them in a Git repository, and then import them from the repo to higher environments as approvals are completed. I need assistance with saving the response from the Export a packaged workflow API (https://us.nintex.io/workflows/v1/designs/package/export) and importing it via API (https://us.nintex.io/workflows/v1/designs/package/import) into higher environments. i am having challenge of preparing query parameter and handling response. 

Is there any documentation, tutorial, or sample code recipe to get started with running DocGen Package to generate document in Salesforce from a Lightning Web Component (LWC)? Please provide links. Thank you.

Hello,on my onPrem SharePoint SE Farm, I have two lists. List 1 contains a lookup column with multiple entries that refer to List 2, “Other seminars.”List 2 contains seminars with the field “Seminar title.”For example, one entry in List 2 has “IT Workshop” as the seminar title. List 2 has the lookup value “IT Workshop” and others in the “Other seminars” field.I would like to use Query List to obtain only the IDs of the entries in List 1 that contain “IT Workshop” in the “Other seminars” column.My CAML is:<Query>  <Lists>    <List ID="{75EBDC1E-BBDF-4383-BBAF-C61C019E8948}" />  </Lists>  <ViewFields>    <FieldRef Name="ID" />  </ViewFields>  <Where>    <Contains>      <FieldRef Name="otherSeminars"  />      <Value Type="Lookup">IT-Workshop</Value>    </Contains>  </Where></Query> I also tried only the ID “13” of the IT Workshop and this: 13;#IT-Workshop. But anytime the same error.I receive the fol

I have been trying to embed a Nintex 2016 Form in an iframe on a non-SharePoint web-page and receiving the following error in console.Uncaught SecurityError: Failed to read a named property 'SP' from 'Window': Blocked a frame with origin "https://myexamplesite.net.au" from accessing a cross-origin frame.    at $_global_init (init.js?rev=RHfoRxFuwXZ%2BOo2JABCoHA%3D%3DTAG0:1:42957)    at init.js?rev=RHfoRxFuwXZ%2BOo2JABCoHA%3D%3DTAG0:1:280872Has anyone seen this or has used a fix for this security block?An online search of this issue indicates SharePoint pages (especially classic pages, forms, and the Nintex Workflow/Forms) often use JavaScript that calls window.parent.SP, so the browser’s same-origin policy prevents it from accessing JavaScript objects in another domain, protocol, or port.Adding Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only to web.config has not fixed the issue.This seems to be a new JavaScript call in Sharepoint 2016 as this worked in Sharepoint 2013.

We are just getting started with Nintex Apps.  Trying to build an application to allow for the management of documents in a Sharepoint document library, however we do not see how to create the connection.  Can this even be done?  We’ve built something in PowerApps but I do not want to have to use that if I can avoid it.  

I am displaying a Salesforce multi-select field as read only. In my Skuid page, the chosen values are being displayed twice, once as a comma delineated list, then immediately again as a semi-colon delineated list: In Salesforce, the data does not appear this way: There are no interactions, display logic, formulas etc on this field in my Skuid page. Has anyone encountered this before? Thank you!!

Hi,  I am cleaning up duplicate Service Object on our DEV environment, but I am encountering an issue with removing Service Object via K2 Connect Admin.  Upon checking, I don’t see any Smart Object using this Service Object. Anyone knows what we need to do first to remove this Service Object successfully? Regards,Mike

All was working fine in K2 5.5, but after upgrading to v5.7 we have noticed an immediate problem:When a Workflows sending an Approval request, the approval replies with Approve/Decline, but the workflow is still sat saying Active as if it hasn’t even received a response. There is nothing obvious in the logs, so it seems something has broken Smart Actions with Outlook  when upgrading from v5.5 to v5.7Any suggestions on fixing this? 

did the feature get deprecated? don’t see under workflows. still see extensions

Hi,Has anyone experienced issues where a form won’t load. It’s stuck with the Nintext Green Spinner of doom and won’t go beyond that.Restarted the k2 service and iis and still the same issue. Any ideas folks? 

We've developed a wide variety of K2 applications over the past few years.Now we're asking ourselves: Are these applications actually being used? How often are they accessed, and when were they last accessed? Can they possibly be deactivated or deleted?I'm currently looking for a way to perform this analysis?My question to you:Is there a standard way? An overview/statistics, perhaps, in K2 Management?OrIs there an SMO I can use for this? Then I would write my own K2 application that displays this information in a list.What do you think? Can you help us?

Hi Community,I am using K2 Dynamic Chart control and want to display the count of requests by status (e.g., Draft = 2, Submit = 1).Currently, my SmartObject  returns individual request rows with fields like RequestId and StatusText. Since the chart sums the RequestId, it shows incorrect values (e.g., Draft = 2, Submit = 3) instead of row counts.Challenge: I cannot modify the database (no SQL view or SP changes allowed). The SmartBox SmartObject does not support advanced grouping What I want:To show accurate grouped counts in my Dynamic Chart without modifying the database directly. in chart control there is any feature related to it.
