Add support for lookup() runtime function in Mobile Device.
Recently, the 'lookup()' runtime function was added to the Nintex Office365 Desktop forms, and it's a great addition.
Unfortunately, the functionality does not work in the Nintex Mobile app, which is where my users primarily make use of forms.
Would love to have this supported.

Caching the lookups locally on device would still allow offline access

I am getting a LOT of client kick-back on the lack of this functionality. Pretty much every day. Users want to be able to pull back data by only selecting one item in the field -- not select a one-item-dropdown for each piece.
Please please please :( We need this on over 200 forms.

How is this not supported???
We use lookup() everywhere to reference information based on the selections of other controls.
My scenario is a mobile app form that contributes towards a bigger review process. The user will select the review, a specific section and a question from within that section from cascading list lookups. When they select the question title from the list lookup, the calculated value will perform a lookup function to retrieve the further details of that question.
I appreciate the offline capabilities cannot be catered for here, but it's a pretty essential function for forms I believe and the online functionality needs to come before the offline limitations imo.

This is a requirement. I need to lookup specific values based on other selections and use them as variables within a calculation.

Dears,
It's more than needed.
With a list lookup control, we have to select the value (not automatically).
We cannot proceed with any business form without displaying related data from other lists. -

Currently the Lookup function within the Calculated Value control is not supported on mobile form layouts. It would be great if this could be made possible, or at least indicated that it doesn't work somewhere in the UI.

Hi Ibrahim,
I'm aware that there's a list lookup control that can be used in the nintex app form. However, the lookup inline function does not work.
I'm trying to calculate some value depending on the value of another field and the looked up value.
Doing it with a hidden lookup control is a workaround. However, it would be much easier and consistent if the inline lookup function would work. -

you can use list lookup and set filters to it in nintex mobile, what are you trying to accomplish?

It would be nice if a form used in the Nintex Mobile apps could lookup values of a sharepoint list when that lookup is used in an inline function. This would help use dynamic or parameterized business rules.
