Subscriptions (Studios)

Note

If you prefer using Collections as a way of associating assets with users rather than a given subscription (studio), you have the option to migrate shared assets to collections. Go to Migrate Subscriptions to Collections for more info.

A subscription allows Designer users to publish and share workflows privately within your organization. Server admins can create subscriptions and manage the users and workflows assigned to them. Subscriptions are also known as studios.

A private studio (in other words, subscription) is automatically created for each Server user. When a user creates a workflow in Designer and publishes it to the Server, the workflow is added to the user's private studio (subscription). Workflows published to the private studio are private. Only other users assigned to the private studio (subscription) can see the workflows.

To manage subscriptions, go to the Subscriptions page of the Server Admin interface.

Remove a User from a Subscription

Users can only have one subscription. So, you have to add a user to a new subscription to remove them from their existing subscription. There are 2 methods for moving a user from one subscription to another.

OR

  • Go to the new subscription you want to add the user to. Select Users. To add a user, enter the username in the Search users field and select the user when it appears. Then select + Add.

  4. To change Default Workflow Credentials, select the credentials you want to change in the Default Workflow Credentials dropdown. Go to Credentials for more info. To confirm your changes, select Save.

  5. To add a user to the subscription, select the Users tab. enter the username in the Search users field and select the user when it appears. Then select + Add. Note, this changes the user's private studio (subscription) and removes their access to the workflows in their existing subscription.

Delete a Subscription

Before you delete a subscription (studio), you have to remove all users from it. To do so, add the users to another subscription.

To delete a subscription, find the subscription and select the 3-dot menu next to the subscription name, then select Delete. Note, deleting a subscription also deletes the workflows in that subscription.
