Access SharePoint Online calculated column via NAC Data sources in a NAC form

Hello,I created a Nintex Data source using the SharePoint Online connection and 'Query a list’ operation. The SharePoint list contains three text columns and one calculated column in which the output is also text. The formula is just = CONCATENATE([Col1][Col2][Col3]). Only alpha characters are being concatenated, no commas or other special characters. I have a single item right now in my list.If I add this calculated column in the Columns section of the NAC Data source, and then attempt to use the column on a NAC Form with the Data lookup or Choice - Single (dropdown view) controls I get a data load error.If I remove the calculated column from the Columns section of the NAC Data source, I am able to load data in the NAC form controls.Is what I am trying to do possible in a NAC Form? If not, can I use formulas in the NAC Form to present a drop down list of the three columns as a single concatenated list item?Thanks,Adam

Getting information from AssureSign Jotblock into Workflow

I have a AssureSign template going out to customers to complete. It has several jotblocks worth of information that I would like to use elsewhere in a workflow (for example, Address). While I can get the completed form as a pdf, I’m not seeing how to get the jotblock’s information.

Writing to the same Excel file from multiple machines - read only issue

I am trying to find a way for several bots to work from the same shared Excel file. Assume there is a large list of data (Account Numbers) in one column and another column beside it called “RPA Status”. When one bot starts to work an account, it looks at the Excel file to find the first Account Number with an empty RPA Status field. It then copies this Account Number and writes “In Process” to the RPA Status field so that another bot will not pick up this Account Number. It writes back “Complete” once it has completed whatever process it is doing. Ideally, I’d like to have multiple machines pulling in and writing back to this Excel file. The issue is that if I try running another bot pulling from the same file, the Excel is in “Read Only” status until the other workflow is completely finished. Is there a way to write to an Excel file and immediately close out the connection so that another bot can write to it? I know SQL is an option, but that raises several other issues.

Capturing user data from an embedded form

I’m designing a form that I would like to embed on a page in SharePoint, rather than provide a link to it. But to embed a form in NAC, you have to give form access to “anyone with the form URL.” Obviously this is primarily intended for public forms where you don’t have any user data unless you explicitly ask for it on the form. I’m trying to avoid having to ask for any user data because the form will be for internal use only, accessed only by authenticated users.I was trying to rig up a way to go and grab the user data from the NAC instance, something like this:On the form, use the newGuidAsString function to generate a unique identifier. Use that unique identifier to Set instance name in the workflow. Somehow find that single instance in NAC and grab the user data from it.I thought maybe the Get workflow instances function would do the trick, but you can’t set conditions in it (such as “when NAC instance name = unique identifier”) and it doesn’t seem to capture user data anyway.I’m gu

Rename a SMO field and also update it in SQL

Hi,If I have a Smartobject with several fields, which later down the line the customer wants certain fields renaming. Sure it’s easy enough to do this in K2 by renaming the SMO fields, but SQL keeps the original name of the field in the K2 DB, We are running SSIS reports which connect to the K2 DB and SMO to get data, but the fields in SQL keep the original name rather the new updated name.Any way to update the SMO SQL names without breaking form rules and views?This would make it easier to understand when other developers connect and wonder why fields don’t match up in SQL and K2. Otherwise, it’s quite a pain creating a new SMO (using SAVE AS) and then having to re-attached it to views and having to re-do the rules etc etcThanks

Error handing in SharePoint 'Get a File' action

Hi,I’d like to catch the error if a file is not found when using the SharePoint ‘Get a File’ action. On a wider note is there a way to catch an error within any action or group of actions in a similar way in MS Power Automate using the ‘Run After’ setting? https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Webinars-and-Video-Gallery/Power-Automate-Error-Handling-best-practices-Try-Catch-Scope/td-p/1847402Thanks in advance.
