Create a flow with roles

Create a flow or subflow that runs with assigned roles. Assigning roles enables you to create a user-initiated flow that runs with its own roles rather than the user's roles.

Role required: flow_designer or admin

このタスクについて

Create a user-initiated flow that runs with its own roles and not the roles of the user. For more information about assigning roles to a flow, go to Flow roles. For example, allow a flow to run with the itil role so that it can access data belonging to IT Service Management applications such as incidents and problems.

手順

1. Navigate to All > Process Automation > Flow Designer.
2. Click + New > Flow or + New > Subflow.
3. On the Flow Properties form, define the Name, Application, and Description for the flow.
   For more information, see Create a flow in Workflow Studio.
4. Expand the Additional properties section.
5. In the Run As field, select User who initiates session.
   Role selection is not available if the System User option is selected in the Run As field.
6. In the Run with roles field, select one or more roles that you want the flow to use while it runs.

   

   The roles you select replace any roles that the user normally has. If you don't select any roles, then the flow runs with the roles normally associated with the user.

   ヒント:

   If you have the Explicit Roles plugin (com.glide.explicit_roles) activated, add the snc_internal role to your flow.
   For example, an inbound email flow normally runs as an existing user or as the Guest user when there is no existing user. Guest users don't have access to IT Service Management data such as incidents and problems. Running a flow without any roles may produce access errors when the flow tries to access restricted data on the guest user's behalf. Running a flow with a role such as itil ensures that the flow can access the data it needs.
7. Select Build Flow.

Continue to build and test your flow until you're ready to activate it. You can modify your flow's roles at any time by updating the Flow Properties form.
