Viewing Task Security Roles

Designer 10.5 | webMethods BPM Task Development Help | Working with Security Roles | Viewing Task Security Roles

To view task security roles

1. Open the portlet editor as described in Viewing and Opening Task Portlets.

2. In the portlet list, expand the portlet you want to work with.

3. Expand the Security Roles listing for that portlet to view any existing security roles. If the portlet contains no security roles, you can add one or more as described in Adding a Security Role to a Task.

4. Make note of the following characteristics and behavior of security roles:

Security roles with no linked privileges are used to assign tasks to a corresponding My webMethods user role during run time; you can view the available user roles in My webMethods to ensure that there is an equivalent user role for this type of security role. For more information about viewing user roles in My webMethods, see the PDF publication webMethods Task Engine User’s Guide.

Security roles that contain a linked privilege are used to bind that privilege to a specific control on the task's user interface. For more information, see Binding a Task Functional Privilege to a User Interface Control.
