Workflow Options in Admin

These options are available on the workflow details page of the Admin interface. There is some overlap between the options on this page of the Admin interface and the workflow details page of the Server user interface. Go to Workflow Options in Server UI for workflow options available in Server user interface.

On the Workflows page, select a Workflow. Make your changes to the following Workflow settings. Be sure to click Save when you are finished making changes. 

  • Uploaded: Date workflow was uploaded and Server user who uploaded the workflow.

  • Private Studio: The private studio where the workflow is located.

  • Run: The number of times all users who have access have run the workflow.

  • Tags: To add a new tag, select Add Tags, and select the tags you want to apply. To remove a tag, select the X icon on the tag you want to remove.

  • Change Icon: To change the workflow icon, select Change Icon, and browse for a new icon.

  • Name: The name of the workflow. Not editable in the Server UI.

  • Run Mode: Use Run Mode to block specific tools or access. The Server admin selects the Default Run Mode during server configuration. Go to the Gallery help page for more info. To change the RunMode for the workflow, select a setting from the drop-down.

    • Unrestricted: Server users can run the workflow regardless of tools or access.

    • Semi-safe: Blocks Server users from running the workflow if it reads data from or writes data to a location that is not within the directory or sub-directory of the workflow staging directory (workspace).

    • Safe: Blocks Server users from running the workflow if it reads data from or writes data to a location that is not within the workflow staging directory (workspace). Server users are also blocked from running the workflow if it uses specific tools, events, and data connectors. Go to the

      Safe and Semi-safe Run Modes: Blocked Tools, Events, and Data Connectors help page for more info.

      Note

      Semi-safe and Safe are only available if the Server admin has enabled the Run As setting in System Settings on the Worker > Run As screen or if a Run As user is specified. Go to the Worker and Credentials help pages for more information.

  • Worker Assignment: To change the worker that runs the workflow, select a worker from the drop-down. If a worker is not assigned, the worker assigned to the studio runs the workflow.

  • Requires Private Data Setting: Indicates the workflow needs licensed data to run. Select Yes, if the workflow needs licensed data, or No if the workflow does not need licensed data.

  • Private Data Exemption Setting: Give an exemption to allow a workflow with private data to run. Select Yes, to allow an exemption or No to deny an exemption.

  • Place in My Company's Gallery: Select Yes, to share the workflow in your company's Server, or No, to remove the workflow from your company's Server. Removing the workflow from your company's Server does not remove the workflow from the user's studio.

  • This workflow is ready to be migrated: This option is only available when the Curators Can Flag Workflows for Promotion setting is enabled on the Configuration page. Select Yes to mark workflows and apps for migration. Go to Enable Workflows for Migration for more info.
