Manage app access

This section of the App tab enables you to determine who can access your application by assigning user groups to your app.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Before you can assign user groups to your Workflow App, you must add app-users to the Workflow apps portal.

Workato enables you to add internal and external users to your application, meaning app-users do not need a Workato account to join the Workflow apps portal.

Learn how to invite users in our Administration guide.

To manage app access:

1

Underneath your app's name the number of users and groups already assigned to this Workflow app appears. (In the preceding example, this is 6 groups, 81 users ).

Click into this field to open the Manage access modal.

2

Click + (plus) Add group

Assign user groups to your app

3

Select a user group from the picklist.

4

Assign each group a role. Their role determines the user group's permissions to interact with the app.

Manage access for user groups

The following roles are available:

• Member

• Members can create new requests and respond to tasks assigned to them.

  In the Workflow apps portal, users with the member role can only access tasks in the Assigned to me, Created by me, and Due today tabs. The All requests tab is visible to users with the member role, but only includes tasks assigned to/created by the user.

• Manager

• In addition to member permissions, managers can view and update all requests created by users within the app.

  In the Workflow apps portal, users with the manager role can access tasks in the All requests, Assigned to me, Created by me, and Due today tabs.

Roles determine the tasks users can access in the Workflow apps portal
