Hi Folks,
I'm looking to implement a button that copies the link to a nintex form.
Has anyone done this before?
To Clarify My question:
I'm looking for direction on how to create a button that copies the link of a nintex form.
-The form has been created and saved
-Upon opening the form, a button appears at the top that allows the user to copy the link of that form.
- I can implement the logic on how to hide the button for new forms, looking for help with the javascript(may be)

I assume you want a button on the nintex form itself that copies the URL of the current item (form) ready to paste it?

Yes, that's exactly what I looking for.
I understand that the user may have to save this form first for this to be possible. I just wanted to eliminate the possibility of people copying incomplete link

I'm not able to test this out at the moment, but this could lead in a good direction. If it does then we can post the steps to produce instead of a link out. You would need to add a JavaScript button that calls the functions in the article.
html - Click button copy to clipboard using jQuery - Stack Overflow
The easiest, and safest way, is to add the button to your form with a Client Click of CopyURL()
Then add this code to the Custom JavaScript in form settings
function CopyURL(){
var text = window.location.href;
window.prompt("Copy to clipboard: Ctrl+C, Enter", text);
}The user will be displayed a prompt box with the URL highlighted and can ctrl+c and close the window.
I know there is an additional step but I understand it is not best practice to add to the clipboard directly.
This will give you the correct functionality though.
Let me know how you get on
