I'm using Nintex Workflow for O365.
I'm trying to copy items from List A to List B. However, it looks like the field type "multiple lines of text" is not supported. Standard text fields copy just fine but my list uses a few multi line fields. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi Jonathan,
I tried to reproduce your issue, but I cannot reproduce it.
How long is the text that you are trying to copy?
This is what I tried myself:
I succesfully copied a multi-line field while using the 'text' type
I've used the following text:
this is a rather long text, don't you think so? I really do think it is long - line 1
this is a rather long text, don't you think so? I really do think it is long - line 2
this is a rather long text, don't you think so? I really do think it is long - line 3
this is a rather long text, don't you think so? I really do think it is long - line 4
this is a rather long text, don't you think so? I really do think it is long - line 5
Greetings,
Robert

To copy any kind of text, you can just use the Text datatype. it can contain more than 255 characters = multi line of text

Just another quick tip:
You can also use the 'Create List Item' action. You don't need to specify the 'field type' for a field in that action and it's far easier to configure (no need to enter any Office 365 information)
