Flow does not create the Catalog task for non admins

Danny Barker

Hello,

 

We had a new hire flow built out and upon testing, we discover that the catalog task are only creating for our admins.  I have impersonated other users to verify the request is just stopping at the RITM.  I gave a user admin role and confirmed we now get Catalog tasks.  I did verify the New hire flow is published.  

 

I have built other flows that are functioning and didn't come across anything that was to make catalog task only trigger for admin. 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hello @Danny Barker ,

 

Yes you need to set Run as "system user" for all the subflows then only it will execute flow and subflows as system and won't check login user roles and permissions

Try using the "System Administrator" user.

I only see 2 options in run as

can you please specify where shall i user "System Administrator" user.

Create a Support case, have Servicenow support engineers assist.

is this a problem from SNOW side, cause if i normally give a user role as catalog-admin and then impersonate the user then the tasks are getting created but i dont want to give the users admin role. Is there any other way?
