Run as whoever designed the model

jesusa310
Certified Lead Developer

Hi all,

 

What do you think of Setting the security of the lane that starts a process as "Run as whoever designed the model"? Is it a good practice? What happens if the designer leaves the Company and the user gets deactivated? Is it recommened to use instead Run as whoever started the process? I am interested in knowing if this could cause a security error.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jesus

    Hi Jesus -
    Side note:

    Remember, in the environment where the process model is imported, the user who performs the import assumes the identity of the process designer.

    That's why it's a good practice to ~never import as a named user, and instead use an Appian service account such as "deployment.administrator" who never leaves the company.
