Note: 

This release requires Nintex RPA Central 2.0. If you have not upgraded to Nintex RPA Central 2.0, Nintex recommends planning a maintenance time window to:

  1. Cancel all botflow instances.

If you have a job with a dataset that was configured in Nintex RPA Central 1.X, and you are upgrading to Nintex RPA Central 2.0, the botflow will stop working. You can let Dataset jobs complete first before upgrading to Nintex RPA Central 2.0.
