Orchestration permissions

Note: Orchestrations is currently in beta. For more information, see the Nintex Beta terms document.

Orchestration permissions determine who can access, edit, and manage orchestrations and their instances. The orchestrations available to a user depend on their assigned role and whether they have been granted owner permissions. Orchestration owners can be assigned when saving or publishing an orchestration.

Orchestration permissions can be assigned or removed by:

  • Orchestration owners

  • Global Administrators

  • Automation Administrators

Permissions can be assigned to individual users or groups.

Role-based access

  • Global administrator or Automation administrator role: These users have full access to all orchestrations in the tenant. They can view, edit, manage, and assign permissions for all orchestrations.

  • Other users: Other users can view and edit only those orchestrations where they have been assigned as orchestration owners.

For information about all user roles and their permissions, see User roles.

Orchestration owners

Orchestration owners can:

  • Edit and modify the orchestration

  • Assign or remove permissions

  • View orchestration instances and tasks

Users with an Administrator role have the same permissions as orchestration owners.

Note: 
  • Every orchestration must have at least one orchestration owner (user or group) assigned.

  • You cannot remove yourself from the orchestration owners list.
