What it does

This trigger starts a Nintex workflow when the source event occurs. In migration planning, the important details are the original start condition, the source system, and any values the trigger passes into the workflow.

How Flow Migrator maps it

Flow Migrator maps this to For a selected row using Excel Online (Business). Captured from the Excel Online (Business) template as the native selected-row trigger. Use when rebuilding Excel-started processes and validate source, drive, file, table, and formatted-column schema after import. Flow Migrator has a direct or proven best-effort conversion path for this mapping.

Common migration issues

  • Validate SharePoint site, list/library, content type, required fields, person fields, lookup fields, and attachment or file path behavior.
  • Confirm the final trigger type and source binding because trigger semantics often depend on the original workflow context.
  • Run a test instance and compare outputs against the original Nintex workflow before production migration.

Validation checklist

  1. Open the generated flow and confirm the action card imported correctly.
  2. Validate connection references and required settings before running the flow.
  3. Test with representative source data from the original workflow.
  4. Create a test item/event and verify that the converted flow starts at the expected time.
