Permissions

Workflows and workflow runs are permission-gated. What you can do depends on your role and your organization’s permission model.

Common workflow permissions​

In the workflows UI, actions are typically gated by:

  • Read workflow: view the workflow and open the History drawer
  • Update workflow: edit the workflow graph and settings
  • Execute workflow: run the workflow

Workflow run permissions​

Viewing run details can be gated separately from viewing the workflow itself.

You may need specific permission(s) to:

  • view run details
  • view task-level outputs
  • access attachments or artifacts

Organization-level visibility​

Some views support organization-wide visibility for workflow runs.

Example:

  • Filtering runs by different users (or “system”) can require an organization-level permission.

Troubleshooting permission issues​

If you can’t see a button or view:

  • Confirm you have access to the workflow
  • Confirm you have permission to execute or update
  • If you need to filter runs by user/system, confirm your org-level permission
