User Grants in Workflow

This section outlines the different types of user grants in a Workflow and how they are applied. There are two main categories of grants: those for triggering mechanisms and those for business functions modeled in the Workflow.

1. Grant for the Triggering Mechanism of the Workflow:

  • Projection Action: To Execute a Workflow by a projection action a user needs to have grants to the projection.

  • Custom Event: To execute a Workflow by a custom event a user needs to have the necessary grants to trigger the custom event

  • Custom Command: To execute a Workflow by a custom command a user needs to have grant to the page where the command is placed.

  • REST Endpoint Execution: To execute a Workflow directly via the REST endpoint, the user needs to have one of the following:

​ - External Access Grant for the Workflow: Refer to Granting External Access.

​ - FND_BPA_ADMIN Permission Set assigned to the user.

​ - CamundaRestInterface Projection grant

2. Grant for the Business Function Executed by the Workflow

There are two ways of granting user access to the business activities executed by the Workflows.

  • By Projection Grants: The user can perform the business function if they have grants, given through permission sets, to each projection used in the Workflow.

  • By Admin Authorization: Alternatively, an admin can review and authorize the business function executed by the Workflow, for a given permission set. For more information refer to Grant for the Business function by Admin Authorization
