Automated Workflows are available in FileCloud 21.2 and later.

Disabling Automated Workflows

Automated Workflows enable users in the user portal to create automated processes, such as file approvals and file storage. By default the Automated Workflow function is enabled, but you can disable it.

To disable the Automated Workflows for certain users, disable them in the users' policies.

In the Admin portal, go to Settings > Policies.
Open the policy assigned to the users, and click the User Policy tab.
Change the setting of Disable Workflow Automation from NO to YES.
Click Save.
The Workflows navigation link no longer appears in the user portal of users assigned to the policy.

Requiring a Share Approval Workflow

A Share Approval workflow is a specialized type of workflow that requires a share to be approved before it is made available.
In order for a Share Approval workflow to become active for specific users, you must mark it required in their policies and choose the specific Share Approval workflow to use.

For the Share Approval workflow to apply to all users' shares in FileCloud, it must be created by a promoted Admin with all User Share permissions enabled. Otherwise, the share approval workflow will only apply to shares initiated by the workflow creator on files and folders in their My Files folder.

In the Admin portal, go to Settings > Policies.
Open the policy assigned to the users, and click the User Policy tab.
Change to setting of Require Share Approval from NO to YES.
In Selected Workflow, choose the Share Approval workflow to make effective.
