Hi all,
I'm still relatively new to Nintex 2007 and I have a simple requirement that I cannot manage to fulfill: I want to notify users when a folder is created in a selected document library. The newly-created folder will contain several files, all of which will be pasted using Explorer View, but I want to send out one and only one notification.
I thought this would be a piece of cake and that I could just look for the Content Type folder, but no matter what I did, the workflow never triggered. When I removed this condition, I received one notification per file in the folder.
I then went a very complicated route:
1) Extracted the folder name using a RegExp;
2) Put a flag a the folder level that the notification had been sent;
3) Added an If condition in the workflow checking to make sure no notifications had been sent before sending out a new one.
This also did not work, as I received several notifications as well as errors (workflow has ended unexpectedly). I suppose it's because all the workflows triggered when the files are created are "fighting" and that is causing the problem. I tried adding a Delay For..., but that also did not work.
I'm really out of ideas. Does anyone have a solution to this simple problem?
Thanks
