Summary
This is just a brief example of how AdminStudio tools can be made aware of each other during a project. When
crafting workflows, create command lines to streamline your projects.

Workflows, Projects, and Permissions

AdminStudio interface functionality (including workflows, projects, and the Tools Gallery) is directly influenced by
user authorization and permissions. For example, Administrators can see all users and projects assigned to those
users in AdminStudio. In the case of NT Groups, Administrators can see individual members of those groups in the
Projects tab. Further, Administrators can assign projects to users when running the New Workflow Project
Wizard.
An example of how permissions affect workflows and projects is the display of the Workflow Templates tab,
which requires the View Workflow Tab permission. Likewise, only users with the Create Project permission can
create projects. Even if you have permission to view and create workflows, you can only associate tools which you
are permitted to use with tasks you create. If you are executing projects, you can only launch tools you have
permissions to use, regardless of whether they are associated with a task in the workflow.
