Nintex Workflow – PowerShell Workflow Status Codes
Some of you may be using the “Set Workflow Status” action in Nintex Workflow, which allows you to create custom workflow statuses (statii?).

[alias("workflow")]
$workflowname)
$site = Get-SPSite $siteurl
$web = $site.RootWeb;
$list = $web.Lists[$listname];
$statusChoices = $list.WorkflowAssociations.GetAssociationByName($workflowname,[System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::CurrentCulture).BaseTemplate.GetStatusChoices($web);
$countChoices = $statusChoices.count;
Write-Host 'Status Choice count - ' $countChoices;
$i = 0;
while($i -lt $countChoices)
{
Write-Host $i ' - ' $statusChoices[$i];
$i++;
}
When I ran the above script on my list and workflow, I received the following :
