I am trying to use the Call Web Service action to move items from a library in one site to a subfolder within a library in another site. I have built my Destination URL string, which looks like this:
Web URL/archivearea/Archive%20Project%20Documents/str_FolderName/str_LibraryName/str_DocName
When I enter my string into the browser (minus the document name), it works. However, when I enter it in the Call Web Service action to manually test it, I get an error:
<CopyResult ErrorCode="Unknown" ErrorMessage="Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I tried the Destination URL with and without the document name at the end and I still get the error.
I have passed the variable through a Build String action to replace the spaces with spaces and to trim any spaces at the end.
Why isn't this working?
We think it's a problem with our Test environment. I sat with my manager, a Nintex Evangelist, and we recreated the action in our Prod environment and it worked. I'm going to open a ticket with Nintex and ask about it. Here is a screenshot of the configuration so you can review it. Note that I tried this with both the "CopyIntoItemsLocal" and "CopyIntoItems":
My research indicated that the data in the red box would need to be deleted for it to work. I tried it with and without that data and it did not work:
The Call Web Service Action does not actually copy the documents into the library. It's like the action isn't even there. I can't preview my workflow history, but I can view the workflow details and it looks like the Call Web Service executed normally. It's inside a For Each loop because multiple documents are selected the action is supposed to copy each item one at a time:. It took 3 minutes for the For Each to complete, which makes sense:
Here's the kicker: It used to work. Because of some sort of issue with this site, I can't access previous versions of my workflows.
It looks like I'm not the only one having this issue:

Does anyone have any suggestions?
