Manage Workflows folder roles

Early Access release. See Enable self-service features.

All Okta Workflows folder roles are assigned to users and groups using the Workflows Console. Folder roles apply only to top-level folders. Subfolders inherit the permissions of their root parent folder.

The information for the users and groups comes from your org's Universal Directory. Okta automatically passes any changes to the user or group details, including group membership, to Okta Workflows.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that you're signed in to the Okta Workflows Console with either super admin, Workflows Administrator, or Folder Manager privileges.

  • You can assign Okta Workflows folder roles only to users and groups that a super admin has assigned to the Okta Workflows app. See Assign the Okta Workflows app.
