Reflects the current release of Nintex for SharePoint 2019. For your version, please access assistance through the Help button in the product.
This section describes how to connect the SharePoint server to the Nintex external platform. If you are not installing Nintex external platform features, then you can skip this section.
Connecting the server to the Nintex external platform involves making sure the server can access required certificates and URLs.
To install the Nintex external platform on a server that does not host SharePoint Central Administration (optional)
Log on to the server hosting SharePoint Central Administration.
Open a SharePoint PowerShell command prompt and run the following command:
Install-ExternalPlatform
To confirm server connection to the Nintex external platform
On the Central Administration Home page, click Nintex Administration and then click Health checks under Support and troubleshooting.
If the connection can be established, a "Success" message is displayed in the status column.
Note: If your network requires a proxy server to access the internet, specify the server details in the Proxy server section. These settings are specific to the Nintex external platform and will be the only application allowed access to the internet.
To review availability of required certificates
On the Central Administration Home page, select Security.
In the General Security section, click Manage trust.
Review availability of the following certificates; if any are unavailable, update to make them available.
Baltimore CyberTrust Root.crt
GTE CyberTrust Global Root.cer
Microsoft Internet Authority.cer
Microsoft Secure Server Authority.cer
Thawte Primary Root CA.cer
Thawte SSL CA.cer
To confirm server access to required URLs
