Hi, I am using Nintex online. I have a SubSitesLists list in a site collection A and using the following article I can create a subsite. The thing is I would like to create a subsite from one site collection to another sitecollection. Is it possible?

Create Site From Template using SharePoint 2013 Workflow | DMC, Inc.

Thanks

Hello Renato,

I would advice you to use REST services of Sharepoint :

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj164022.aspx(check "Creating a site with REST").

To use the REST API with Nintex, you should check the article from Caroline Jung here "How to execute a REST API request with Nintex Workflow "

I have to admit that I have never tried to create a subsite within another Site Collection using this method. I hope it could work!

Good luck!

Alex
