Role required: admin

About this task

By default, Workflow Studio generates approvals for all group members who can access the parent request regardless of domain visibility. This configuration allows requests from members of a child domain to generate approvals for members of a parent domain who are not otherwise visible from lower in the domain hierarchy. You can use this procedure to restrict the generation of approvals to only those group members who are visible from the domain of the parent request. For information about domain hierarchies, see Understanding domain separation. For more information about visibility and contains domains, see Visibility domains and contains domains.

  2. For the system property name, enter com.glide.hub.flow.approval.group_member.use_query_no_domain.

    OptionDescription
    true Generate approvals for all members of the group who have access to the domain of the parent request. Select this option to exclude domain visibility from the approval generation query. For example, generate approvals for users who belong to domains higher in the domain hierarchy. This is the default value.
    false Generate approvals only for group members who are visible from the domain of the parent request. Select this option to include domain visibility in the approval generation query. For example, do not generate approvals for users who belong to domains higher in the domain hierarchy.
    Note: Workflow Studio only generates approvals for users who can access the domain of the request.

Result

Workflow Studio only generates approvals for group members who belong to the same domain or child domains of the parent request.
