Hello ServiceNow Jedis, Knights and Senseis,
I have a playbook with activities that rely on a lot of server data. The data need to ready before those activities even fire. To handle this, I have created an activity (call it Get All Info) that executes right at the beginning of the playbook. This activity fires off a subflow which get me all the server data I need and can feed to consecutive activities (via the pills).
Now, even I set my Get All Info activity as 'automated=true', it still shows on the playbook page.
Is there any way at all to hide it from showing on runtime, or maybe show only to admins.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Here is a method to control role based visibility on playbook activities:
see the sys_playbook_activity_renderer_list table, create a record, define roles required, filter a tagline on the activity.
all activities where you add the tagline, this record will control visibility
example where activity 1.2 would be only visible to admin:
the PAD activity config
the sys_playbook_activity_renderer record:

I configured something similar but it didn't work.
Can you help how it actually works?

Hi Benjamin, in sys_playbook_activity_render - What is the Parent table name please?
I tried with record level parent table/ no data in it (as its not a mandatory), but no luck.
Can you provide more steps ? or the docs link please?
Update: Ignore - Its some cache issue. Working fine with empty parent table name.
Thanks,
Edwin
