Access to create catalog task

[Community Alums]

I need to configure the functionality where any user in the instance can create the catalog task through flow designer.
Any user means the user without any role also should be able to create the catalog task

Hi @Community Alums 

A user without any role is considered an End User, and as an End User, it is neither recommended nor required to create a Catalog Task. Catalog Tasks are primarily used by Fulfillers and are typically created via Flow if configured, or manually at the RITM level (though this is not recommended). Therefore, asking whether an End User can create a Catalog Task is not a valid use case.

Yes, But I need to give access as it is the requirement

Hi @Community Alums 

As a BPC and from a process perspective, I would never recommend this. Think about it—if you raise a request with your internet provider, would you create a task for them to deliver the router or anything else? The answer is obviously no.

Additionally, if you assign the role, the end user would require a license, which violates policy and process guidelines. The role in question is Catalog Admin, but granting this role would allow the user to perform any action on the catalog, including deletions. Moreover, the user would need to log in to the native view, as catalog task creation is not possible via the portal.

Thanks @Community Alums 

Thank you for marking my answer as helpful, but I still urge you to reconsider this request, as I explained with the example above. Technically, @Siddhesh Jadhav provided the correct answer, but from a process perspective, it is not the right approach to implement. Please check with the client before proceeding.
