Workflow actions upgrade details

When a workflow is upgraded, all actions in Nintex for Office 365 are mapped to an equivalent action in Nintex Automation Cloud. Depending on the actions and functionality available in Nintex Automation Cloud the actions will be mapped as below:

  • Some actions may be mapped to multiple actions to achieve the same outcome.

  • Actions that do not exist or doesn’t have an equivalent action in Nintex Automation Cloud are replaced with a placeholder action to ensure the workflow design is retained.

    Important: For recommendations of what to do when the action is not available in Nintex Automation Cloud, see Recommendations for unsupported actions.

  • Some actions will be mapped to an action in Nintex Automation Cloud but may have slightly different behavior compared to Nintex for Office 365 and further review of the configuration will be required.

Check out the Nintex product roadmap in Nintex community to see what's coming to Nintex Automation Cloud.

This table shows the list of Nintex for Office 365 workflow actions and the equivalent action in Nintex Automation Cloud and also provides any specific upgrade details about the actions.
