Common migration issues

  • Review the generated action after import because some Nintex behavior does not map one-to-one to Power Automate.
  • Validate expression syntax, data types, escaping, HTML output, and array/object handling in Power Automate.
  • Run a test instance and compare outputs against the original Nintex workflow before production migration.

Validation checklist

  1. Review this item before export or immediately after import.
  2. Open the generated flow and confirm the action card imported correctly.
  3. Validate connection references and required settings before running the flow.
