Note: Nintex Apps data centers are located in West US and Australia (AUS). In-region processing of Nintex Apps data is only available in these regions.

Models

A Nintex Apps model is a container that calls and holds content (such as data) from an external system like a connection service. The model makes this content available to a Nintex Apps page, giving components content to display. Models facilitate the passage of information between an external system and the page by defining:

• what content is available to the page
• how the content can be limited by conditions
• how the user can act on the content

Create a model, then configure a variety of settings:

• choose which fields to pull in from the object
• create model conditions to limit which records are loaded
• specify processes for model actions

With the exception of some layout components ( Tab Set, Responsive Grid, Wrapper, etc.), all components can (and many must ) be connected to a model, or the component will appear empty—devoid of data.
