Significant Nintex RPA Run-Time Performance Improvements for Clients 

Dear customer,  We are excited to announce Nintex RPA versions 21.10.5 and above now exhibit significant run-time performance improvements for clients running the software. Nintex internal testing has revealed that RPA wizards (automation processes) operating on large data sets with many variables take 90% less time to execute as compared to before this performance enhancement.* For example, an RPA unattended automation job operating on an Excel spreadsheet containing thousands of rows of customer accounts with dozens of variables per row (name, address, phone, account number, start date, etc.) that would normally take hours to complete is now completed in minutes. This performance enhancement dramatically increases organizational speed and productivity, getting more done with their RPA bots than ever before. Organizations can run existing unattended automations 90% faster with the same number of unattended RPA bots doing the work. For more information, please reach out to your AM/ CS.

How to escape dollar sign to avoid variable reference

Hello, We’re trying to use the “Run Script” action to run a powershell script. Powershell uses $ symbols to signify a powershell variable.  We’re noticing that scripts don’t run correctly anytime there’s more than 1 $ in the script.  My assumption is that when the script runs, it’s trying to evaluate everything between $ symbols as an RPA variable. If this is the case, how can we escape a $ symbol so that Nintex RPA doesn’t try to interpret it as an RPA variable?I’m assuming this is an issue where ever variables can be used. As an example, using this “Set value” action: Results in this output: Any advice would be appreciated.

Email

Is there any way to change the email you use when logging into Nintex?  I used my company email to create my account but I am working on certification and am concerned that if I leave my current company that I will not be able to access any certifications I earn or need to update.  Thanks.

Dynamic Variable Names

We were hoping to make a Global Function that could take a variable with delimited headers and do the following: For each header, create a new variable that is named using this syntax: Header + “-ColNum” Value for the variable would be equal to the column’s number, relative to the other other headers in the delimited variable.  As an example, a delimited variable like this: “Account Number, Balance, Address”Would result in the following variables:Account Number-ColNum 1 Balance-ColNum 2 Address-ColNum 3 In future steps of the wizard, this would allow us to use the new variables in place of hardcoding the column values. This would also make it so that if the order of items changed in the delimited data, the Wizard would still work correctly since the global function would be determining where that particular column is in the data at runtime.  Unfortunately, we can’t reference a variable in the variable name portion of the of the “Set a Variable” action.  Is there anyway to make variab

Update smartsheet from Nintex Bot

I’m building out actions on bots to automatically update a smartsheet.  I have a few questions on how to make this more automated. requires user to sign-on - I created a message interaction to prompt the user to sign-in.   How do others handle this?  Should I add credentials and have the users that run the bots store their own personal data and then have logic to get network username to match to know which credential to enter? finding the correct folder on smartsheet - I’m having issues getting the bot to find and select the correct folder so I’m having another message interaction to have the user select the folder. Once it’s on the correct sheet i have the bot adding a new first row then editing to add the details needed for the time savings, then clicking save and exiting.

PSA: "Wait for web page to download" option and when to change the default value/setting

This is just a quick Kryon RPA PSA (Public Service Announcement) concerning this option: When working in Kryon RPA (using Kryon Studio), you may have spotted this configuration option/parameter. It's one of the "window settings" of a step and relevant when you are automating web-applications (i.e. when working on a web-page). The default value for this option is "Automatically". This default setting works for probably 99% of cases/pages. But now you may be wondering: When to set a different value for this option? The Kryon Studio guide/documentation states that "Utilising this option can prevent wizard failure in case of slow systems or network/internet connections." So to explain: Sometimes the web-page may be "there" (visible with the correct URL and window-caption), but the content of the page is still loading. In such cases, it is advisable to set this option to (the value) "Always". This setting will introduce a very slight delay. However, it enables you to deal with web-pages tha

Does kryon RPA has a community edition

Hi there, as part of my training journey in RPA I was required to do the trainings for Kryon, but I can’t find any community version of Kryon to follow along the trainings. Is there any trial version of Kryon studio without the need to setup a server?

Running Macro from the Studio

To run a macro from the Studio or the Robot the following points should be considered and configured: If the VBA code is embedded inside the excel sheet then the exact Module name and Procedure name should be mentioned inside "Run Macro' AC. Don't forget to save the excel file with .xlsm extension or change its extension from .xlsx to .xlsm. The Wizard should contain AC "Set user interaction" as Ignore, because the code that macro is executing will be considered as an external user actions for the Studio or Robot and it will pause the wizard.Attached you will find a sample macro enabled excel file and the wizard. Adjust the new excel file in the wizard and run to test it.

select menu item from drop down menu

New here. I’m trying to select a menu item from a drop down menu.  The menu will automatically open when you hover over the menu title. Then I move mouse down to the desired menu item.  I tried mouse recording. I’ve tried to do a mouse hover and that will open the menu list, but doesn’t select the item. I added a click on the item, but when the process runs, the hover happens, then the drop down disappears, and the item selection (click) doesn’t happen.Any ideas?

Send grouped notification based on list items

Hi, Often here on the forum someone asks how to send a notification based on a list/library grouping items instead of sending one email for each item, e.g. in a task list I want a single notification for each assignee with the list of all the tasks that are assigned to that specific people.. This is my solution, hope it can help someone! First action will be a Query List Action where I can set all the optional filter, if I don't want to get all items in my source and, most important, I sort items by the field I want to group by.Then I save all the fields I want to include in my notification in collection variable, also the field I want to group by should be stored in a collection variable.Then I start looping on the groupBy collection variable and then I get all the related information from the other collection using the same index:If the index is not equal to 0 and the previous value of my grouping condition is not equal to the current one, I'll send a notification with the previous b
