Workflow Permissions and User Roles

Workflow permissions are based on user roles. Each workflow has a Creator, an Owner, and may also be managed by an Admin. These roles control who can view, edit, and run a workflow.

  • Creator: The user who creates the workflow. This role is assigned automatically. A Creator can:
    • Create, edit, and publish workflows
    • Assign or change the workflow Owner
    • Configure workflow properties and define workflow structure
    • Execute (run) the workflow
  • Owner: The user responsible for managing the workflow. By default, the Creator is also the Owner, but this can be changed. An owner can:
    • Edit the workflow they own
    • Assign or change the workflow Owner
    • Save and publish updates
    • Execute (run) the workflow
  • Admin: A user with full access to manage all workflows in the system. An admin can:
    • Assign or change the workflow Owner
    • Modify and publish workflows
    • Manage ownership and access
    • Execute (run) the workflow
  • View-Only Users: Users with read-only access to workflows.
    • Can:
      • View the workflow canvas in read-only mode
      • Access metadata and status details
    • Cannot:
      • Access the Workflow Properties panel
      • Edit tasks or access task panels
      • Use Save as Draft or Publish options

You can view assigned permissions on the Workflows page.
