Manage workflow actions (sites and site collections)
This topic describes how to manage action settings for sites and site collections.
With appropriate administrator privileges for the site or site collection, you can disable inheritance of action settings, enable and disable actions, and edit permissions for actions. When inheritance is disabled, you can specify site- or site collection-specific action settings. Only enabled actions are visible in the Actions toolbox, and only when the current user has permissions for that action. By default, enabled actions are available to all workflow designers.
Access the Action Settings page for the site: Click the settings icon () on the upper right, select Site settings to display the Site Settings page, and then click Action settings under Nintex Workflow.
To view action settings for the site collection, click Site collection settings.
To disable inheritance of action settings (required for configuration at the site or site collection level)
Access the Action Settings page for the site: Click the settings icon () on the upper right, select Site settings to display the Site Settings page, and then click Action settings under Nintex Workflow.
To update configuration for the site collection, click Site collection settings.
Click Stop inheriting actions.
