Install the Nintex Automation Cloud app

The Nintex Automation Cloud app that's available in the SharePoint store, provides SharePoint Online users direct access to the integrated Nintex Automation Cloud tenant from a SharePoint list or library.

After installation, the Nintex app is displayed in the Site contents page and you can find it in the top ribbon of your SharePoint lists and libraries. When a user opens the Nintex app in SharePoint Online:

  • If an integration is created in Nintex Automation Cloud, the integrated Nintex Automation Cloud is opened enabling the user to directly access Nintex Automation Cloud.

  • If an integration is not created, the Integrate Nintex Automation Cloud page is displayed.

    • Click Integrate with an existing tenant and follow the instructions to create the integration. For information, see SharePoint integration.

    • Click Sign-up for a free trial to sign up for a new Nintex Automation Cloud tenant.

Important: 
  • When you first open the app, you'll need to grant consent so that users don't have to sign in each time. This is a one-time requirement for the tenant and must be done by an Administrator with the correct permissions required to grant consent.

  • Nintex Automation Cloud can be accessed using the Nintex Automation Cloud app only from a SharePoint list or library. Site workflows are not supported and Nintex Automation Cloud can't be accessed via Site contents.

  • You must have the required license to SharePoint list forms.

Install the app in SharePoint

A SharePoint administrator or users with the appropriate permission level can add the Nintex Automation Cloud to a SharePoint site.
