I was at Nintex Inspire X conference at Las Vegas and wanted to share some exciting stuff happening in the community. I have highlighted the new features which will be part of Office 365, So 2016 as well as 2013.
- Scripted Install/NWADMIN PowerShell
- Single CA Nintex Management Module
- Will work on any modern browsers. Both forms and workflow designers
- Help is integrated to Online help. Real and updated
- Improved Tool box and better UI on workflows
- Nintex Insight (Analytics UT Tool) connector OOB with WF
- External Start (Events triggered from outside). Integration to PowerApps/Logic Apps
- Drawloop will be available on Prem
- Workflow Metadata which on error can call/notify (Will be available on SP 2013 forms/Also cross browsers support on Sp 2013)
- More investments on hybrid
- Forms for document set metadata
- Multi page form/views
- Saving forms and draft
- Set default values to fields without scripts
- Managed metadata column will be supported
Most important of all Nintex Office 365 Workflows is moving towards cloud hosted workflow engine model. Means to saw the worklflows will run outside of SharePoint environment. No more worrying about SharePoint Worklfow Limits/Throttle issues.
