Hi fellow Nintex Admins,

i hope, you can help me again.

My first Nintex workflow was with a InfoPath Form in a Form Libary. There i could parse the XML totally simple:

Now i try the same with the new Nintex form but can not access the actual element. And if i try to achieve this with the context element url,  i dont get a valid xml

My second question is a problem with the form itself. I want to build a string for the Title column of the List Library and thought, that i am on the right way. I use a calculated value:

and this works at runtime of the form, but i can't figure out a way to save this value to the Title field.

Thanks for helping

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

well, OOTB NintexForms creates a hidden column called FormData in your list. This column will store the actual form-data as XML. So you'll have to query the contents of this field like this:

As far as the form goes ... you will need to connect the calculated value to the Title column. But you shoud make sure, that you don't have another field which is connected to the column.
