Ability to change/customize the sender email address in Nintex Workflow Cloud.
When you send an email in Nintex Workflow Cloud, all the emails will be delivered by nintex@workflowcloud.com and we are looking to change this email with one of our own email addresses/domains < noreply@mydomain.com>.
157 votesThank you very much for your feedback, we’ve had many requests for this capability however Nintex will always require its own managed email service to process incoming express approval responses as well as ensuring all emails are reliably delivered.
Please note that you can already specify the senders display name however the actual from address will always be from workflowcloud.com
At this stage we are passing on this particular idea as it does not align with the core product mission and roadmap. We welcome additional ideas and feedback from you in the future.

Graphical WF InProgress View
I would like to see graphical view of workflow progress like OnPrem.
111 votesThank you very much for posting your feedback for our review. At this time, we will not be adding this request to the near-term backlog, as we are focused on Styling, Accessibility, Advanced features, etc., that are obviously critical and more important. However, we reevaluate requests every quarter and will reach out if priorities change. Please keep the feedback coming as it is critical for our longer-term planning.

Auto-save workflow design
I lost a more than a day of work, hours!
and no automatic save feature....This alone will cause me not to go with Nintex as a solution. I can't afford this.
I've testes over 8 solutions this month, and all offer auto save.
The mighty Nintex does not....41 votesThank you very much for posting your feedback. At this time, we will not be adding this request to the near-term backlog, as we are focused on other priorities.

Shorten URL for Workflow Cloud Form
It would be nice to be able to create a shorten URL for the Forms in Workflow Cloud just like your able to do with Live Forms on SharePoint on Prem. We have already had a few request from stakeholders of some Forms and Workflows we have already created on this.

Integrate sign-in/sign-out information between SharePoint Online and NWC
Since this is critical and urgent that affects our NWC implementation, can you please consider the feature improvement?
Currently, since the sign-in/sign-out system between SharePoint Online and NWC is not integrated, user information still remains in NWC even after s/he signed-out from SharePoint Online.
When Single-Sign-On (SAML2.0) is available, we need the user to be signed-out from NWC if s/he had signed-out from SharePoint Online.31 votesThank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately we will not be proceeding with this suggestion as this is not how single sign on operates.
The sign out is of the application and the application’s active session is unique to the application you’re signing into and out out of. i.e. for any application that you configure SSO for, the sign out action taken on one application is specific to the application.

sql execute a query - capture error option
In NWC SQL execute a query action there is currently no error handling mechanism.
If there is a network connectivity issue to the SQL connection the action and the workflow is failing.
It would be good to add in the ability to capture errors and store that the error has occurred in a boolean variable so we can build conditional logic in the workflow to gracefully handle the issue and not lose the data from the nintex start form.
(In my example I'm using an INSERT SQL query)This could be similar to the Nintex workflow for sharepoint on premise…
25 votesEven though this is set to not planned we certainly have it in our longer term roadmap and fully aware of the requirement. I know this won't fully solve the need here however we are currently planning on being able to re-submit a failed workflow and that way you wouldn't loose any of the submited data.

Online Payments
Would be great if there was some sort of off-the-shelf payment gateway setup to allow for online payments within a Nintex Form. Would be even more awesome if we could manipulate variables such as cost price via form rules.

Ability to reorder Form Rules
Would be great to be able to reorder Form Rules from the Rules Tab in Nintex Workflow Cloud
22 votesDue to low number of votes, low demand and other higher priority feature enhancement requests, we will not pursue this capability at this time.

Assign a task without email notification
Give the option to assign a task without emailing the assignee(s).
With the addition of my nintex, some users are already asking for the option to just monitor their tasks in there on a daily basis rather than receive emails for each task.If multiple users are assigned it would be good to chose who gets the email and who doesnt. This would be particularly useful to send a notification to a shared inbox and allow users of that inbox (also assignees) to complete the task as their users.

Currently we have other near term priorities however we reevaluate requests every quarter and will reach out if priorities change.

Success Information - Form sent
After submitting a form the form redirects to the success message which is always "Form submitted successfully."
Although it's possible to route to another publicly available site instead, it would be awesome to just modify the text message to reflect different languages. In our case it would be sufficient to have that text in German without the need to build a whole site for this and host it.21 votesThank you very much for posting your feedback.

Add support for paginated responses from Connector calls such as BOX.ccom
The current connectors for Box.com (and I assume others) do not support pagination. In the case of Box.com when a response has more than 200 items (For example a collection of files in a folder with '201 files') the Nintex connector will only return the first 200 entries.
This can cause logic failures in Workflows that are completing any type of search where the WF must loop through a collection of files or folders. With the current structure, the loop does not find a match if the file that would have been matched is past the first 200 entries.

Microsoft Graph Integration - Connector / Directory / Actions

E-Mail validation message
Right now the validation error message of the e-mail control in NWC is "The email is not valid."
It would be helpful to add custom messages so that we can translate this message to different languages or additional information.16 votesThank you very much for posting your feedback.

Static IP for Nintex Workflow Cloud
Please consider purchasing a static ip for your cloud service.
To open up our databases/api's to Nintex to access we will need to add the full Dynamic Azure Ip range. ( The list is very long ).
see
https://community.nintex.com/t5/How-To-s/Nintex-Online-Services-IP-Addresses-to-Whitelist/ta-p/83587It would be very difficult to enter and maintain as the list changes in most instances.
Thanks

Interact with Express Approval Task on instance detail page
With regards to the Instance details and Express approvals - it would be nice to have a link to the Express Approval form or to be able to respond to the task on the the Instance detail page if the task is assigned to that user. This would make it one less click to interact with the task.

Security: two factor authentication
Is it possible to secure my account with two-step authorization such as sms or OTP?
13 votesWe do not support two factor with the native authentication. We recommend setting up SSO on NWC with your own federated authentication provider. Help guide on how to setup available here: https://help.nintex.com/en-US/nwc/Content/Settings/ConfigureSAML.htm

Push notification on instance completion
Send push notifications to user's browser once a workflow instance has finished processing. User might be busy on other tabs, just notify him through push notifications.
12 votesThank you for the idea. We’ve decided not to pursue this specific solution but understand that users want to be notified or kept informed as a workflow progresses.

Auto-create sharepoint online list
It would be really nice to have the option within the 'SharePoint Online - Create an Item' action, to be able to auto-create a SharePoint list with fields based on the form fields.
We have forms with 400+ fields worth of data that need to be stored. Manually creating a list in SharePoint Online with 400+ columns is so time consuming. Would be much easier if the two systems worked together to auto-create these columns.
