While loop for Automatically completing tasks

Hi all, I have review task that I’d like to be automatically completed if the following occurs:Reviewer name is removed from list of reviewer “Status” is changed I have a branch of my workflow that will wait until an update occurs in the “Status” and ends the workflow subsequently completing all pending tasks. However, I need help figuring out a way to automatically complete the task when the reviewer changes. I currently have a while that will check, but since these review tasks can take up to a few weeks for people to complete, this while loop will reach its maximum loops and error. However I don’t want add an extended delay to the loop either because I’d like the response be as quick as possible when a reviewer is removed. Thoughts? Thanks

Is it possible to add 'a form rule' upon submitting a form

I was wondering if it is possible to make changes to a form whenever the form is submitted. For instance; is it possible to make all fields read-only when someone submits a form (I am using new responsive designer).

Forms rule to validate that two person fields are different

I have two person fields in a form on Office 365 Nintex.  Its a new responsive form.  I want to validate that the two person fields are different within the form rather than on the workflow.  I know formerly this was a reccomended use case for inline fuction.  Do we have something comparable in New Responive?

Validating a form control to not allow Special characters

I have what I would expect to be a simple validation of a form control not to have any special characters.  It seems like a Regular Expression should handle this. I read this prior post which appeared to give me a simple answer of w+.  I tried that and it didnt allow even valid alpha numberic characters. I also tried ^[a-zA-Z0-9] which I found by google searching.  This allowed special characters still.  Any ideas?

Unable to configure Nintex actions such as Set a Variable

When trying to update certain Nintex Actions (ex. Set a Variable, Run If),  the action will time out when trying to open the action. The following error message appears: “Sorry, Something went wrong, An unexpected error has occurred”.  This has recently started in the past month. It will work for a few minutes, then the error appears. Any suggestions? Using SharePoint 2013.

Multiselect checkbox control - Disable not respected

On a workflow start form list lookup I would like to check all the options and prevent the user from changing the selections.The following automatically checks all the boxes in the control when the list lookup filter changes;NWF$("input[type=checkbox]").click(function() { setTimeout( function(){    NWF$('.mandatory :checkbox').each(function(i){        NWF$(this).prop("checked", true);        });   },200);});However I am having an issue with preventing further changes to the list lookup control.Setting Appearance Enabled=No on the control does not seem to do anything, the checkboxes can still be modified. What is Enabled Y/N supposed to do?

Nintex Subscription Usage Report double-counting some workflows (On Prem)

The Nintex Subscription Usage Report available via on-premises SharePoint Central Administration > NINTEX > LIcensing is displaying and double-counting a couple of workflows.  I’ve checked it over the past few days and it is not correcting itself.  Is there anything I can do to force it to re-do its inventory? We are licensed for 10 Production Workflows and it thinks that is what we have, but the true count is only 8 because it’s double-counting 2 workflows.  It shows the same metadata values in the repeats (Workflow name, Site relative URL, Production/Development, Billable Actions, and Total Actions), so it’s not as if I can go anywhere to delete the “extra” workflows...

Start PowerShell Script remotely with Nintex Workflow

Hi thereI have a PowerShell Script stored on our AD Server, which creates a new AD User. I'd like to execute that PS-Script with my Nintex Workflow with some Variables such as first name. But I have not been able to find a way to do this except for Programming my own API with C# or Python which would be running on our AD-Server and then send my API-request to that API using the "Web-request" or "Web-Call" Workflow Action.I have seen this Nintex RPA Action for executing a PowerShell Script: https://help.nintex.com/archives/en-US/rpa/v1/Actions/PowerShell.htmDoes something similar to this exist for Nintex for Sharepoint 2019? Or can I somehow add this feature to Nintex for SharePoint 2019?Or do you know another way to execute PowerShell Scripts remotely or create AD Users remotely from a Nintex for SharePoint 2019 Workflow?Thanks for any replies. :)

Task approval redirects to SharePoint task item instead of "ApproveReject.aspx" page

This is already happening few times to us.Approval Task redirects to SharePoint Task item page instead of ApproveReject page, this suddenly happening to one of workflows which has a Request Approval module.I across some solutions posted 2 years and 6 years ago:https://community.nintex.com/nintex-for-sharepoint-67/task-approval-redirects-to-sharepoint-task-item-instead-of-approvereject-aspx-page-16765https://community.nintex.com/archive-25/why-would-request-approval-step-not-redirect-to-approvereject-aspx-page-56867 So has this already been fixed with any specific patching? Or any simpler solution or best practice has been advised by Nintex?  Thanks.

Issue sending HTTP Header to Graph API from workflow. Truncated? Max length? No idea.

I’m using Nintex for Sharepoint 2019 on prem and I’m trying to send a POST request to Graph API to send an email.The flow is as follows:A GET request to Graph with ClientID and SecretID to get a token back. This part is working fine.Then you’re supposed to send the token as the Authentication header when sending the next GET/POST request depending on what you want to do. In my case, I’m sending a POST request to the /sendMail endpoint.I know the token I’m getting is good because I can successfully make the POST request via Postman and I get a 202 response and the email sends out. But whenever I try to replicate the same exact request from the workflow, I get the following error: code":"InvalidAuthenticationToken","message":"CompactToken parsing failed with error code: 80049244This usually means the format of the token is wrong, or that the token is not the correct one for what the request is asking (but I already know this is not the case since it works via Postman).The header is suppo

Updating Controls in Form Templates for new lists

I saved a form as a template and imported it as the new form for a different list as the two lists were similar. However, when adding rules, the “named controls” only show the controls from the previous list and won’t update to the current list controls. How do I change this?
