Nintex RPA LE release notes

Follow this page and the Nintex RPA Community blog to stay updated on product release information.

Important: 

If you are upgrading from a Nintex RPA Central version prior to 2.0 and a Nintex Bot version prior to version 17.3.0, Nintex recommends planning a maintenance time to: 

  1. Terminate all botflow instances.

  2. Unpublish all botflows that are scheduled to run within your planned maintenance time window. For more information, see Edit a botflow in Nintex RPA Central. You can also back up or export key botflows. For more information, see Backup and restore and Botflow Menu.

  3. Upgrade Nintex RPA Central. For more information, see Install Nintex RPA Central.

  4. Upgrade Nintex Bots. For more information, see Install and configure a Nintex Bot.

The Nintex RPA Central 2.0 release does not include support for processing datasets in Nintex RPA Central. However, you can still process datasets with Nintex Bots. If you have a job with a dataset that was configured in Nintex RPA Central, and you are upgrading to Nintex RPA Central 2.0, the botflow will stop working. You can let the dataset job complete first before upgrading to Nintex RPA Central 2.0 or you can upgrade to Nintex RPA Central 2.1 or above (recommended).

Nintex RPA Central 2.15.0 and Nintex Bot 17.16.0: August 21, 2024

Nintex RPA Central 2.15.0 resolved issues

  • If you have a Site License key, the Botflow entitlement on the License information page will now display Unlimited botflows instead of 0 botflows. For more information, see License and subscription.

  • Scheduled botflows now run at the correct times after Daylight Saving Time changes. Previously, they could run an hour later than scheduled.

  • Botflows no longer get stuck in a running state and cannot be terminated.

Nintex Bot 17.16.0 enhancements, resolved issues, and known issue

Enhancements

  • Improvements in the Nintex RPA Chrome Extension include enhanced table highlighting and searching. Multiple cells in different tables on the same page can now be highlighted. Download the latest version for updates.

  • SFTP now supports Azure Blob Storage.

  • Improved Unlocker. For more information, see Unlock.

  • The new Throw Error action simulates a system error, allowing you to resolve different error scenarios. For more information, see Throw Error.

Resolved issues

  • A Mouse action no longer fails if Nintex Bot completely covers the Google Chrome window.

  • The username value is no longer encrypted when using the Set Credential action.

Known issue

  • Boxing may not work correctly in Google Chrome when targeting the Print dialog with UIA on Windows Server 2019. We recommend upgrading to Windows Server 2022, as it has performed very well in our internal tests and does not exhibit this issue. Windows Server 2022 also provides you with improved performance and speed.
