Allowing access to workflow containers

Automation workflow tasks require access to containers that hold workflow definition objects. By default, Active Roles allows any authenticated user to view the Configuration > Policies > Workflow container itself. You can enable appropriate users or groups to view containers held in the Workflow container by applying the Workflow - View Workflow Containers Access Template to that container.

To enable users or groups to view workflow containers

  1. In the Console tree, expand Configuration > Policies, right-click the Workflow container, and then click Delegate Control.

  2. In the Active Roles Security dialog, click Add to start the Delegation of Control Wizard.

  3. On the Users or Groups page in the wizard, click Add, and then use the Select Objects dialog to select the desired users or groups.

  4. On the Access Templates page in the wizard, under Access Templates > Configuration, select the Workflow - View Workflow Containers check box.

  5. Follow the instructions in the wizard and accept the default settings.

  6. Click OK in the Active Roles Security dialog.

Delegating full control of automation workflows

By giving full control of an automation workflow to a user or group, you authorize the user or group to perform the following tasks:

  • View the workflow definition.

  • Make changes to the workflow.

  • Run the workflow.

  • View the workflow run history reports.

You can delegate full control of all automation workflows held in a certain container by applying the Automation Workflow - Full Control Access Template to that container.

To delegate full control of all automation workflows held in a certain container

  1. In the Active Roles Console tree, right-click the desired container under Configuration > Policies > Workflow, and then click Delegate Control.

It is also possible to delegate full control of a single automation workflow by applying the Access Template to the workflow definition object.

To delegate full control of a single automation workflow

  1. On the View menu, select Advanced Details Pane.

Delegating the task of running automation workflows
