Symptoms

When trying to copy a Nintex workflow containing the action "Update Item Permissions", an error occurs stating that:

[...] This behavior is not supported with On-Premises Nintex Workflows. The workflow cannot be copied as it could break the security of the site.

Error code

  • NW-052-171

  • NW-053-171

  • NW-054-171

  • NW-055-171

Details

ShareGate Migrate will map the "Update Item Permissions" in Microsoft 365 to the action "Set Item Permissions" when On-Premises. However, those action have different behavior possible and have a different feature set. In order to ensure that the workflow cannot be executed by mistake and grant permissions to either the wrong user, or on a incorrect item, ShareGate Migrate will not copy the workflow unless it is updated to match more closely the On-Premises feature set.

Solution

Ensure that all actions "Update Item Permissions" respect the following criterias:

  • The parameter 'Destination site URL' refers to the current site

  • The parameter 'List Name' refers by name to a list available in the current site (or by the workflow context "List Name" property)

  • The parameter 'Filter' respects the following criterias

    • The option "Update all list items permission" is not selected

    • A filter (or CAML query) is configured

    • The filter only has 1 condition, with its operator being "is equal to"

    • The field being filtered exists on the target list and is not a reference to a variable / workflow context information / etc.

  • The parameter 'Permission' refers by name to a permission level available in the current site

  • The parameter 'Remove existing permissions' has a value of either Yes or No

  • The parameter 'Inherit permissions from parent' has a value of either Yes or No

If any of the following criterias are not met, ShareGate Migrate will not copy the workflow.
