Change the settings for a project-level user role

  1. Select the project you'll be modifying.
  1. Create a project-specific user role for your organization to allow users to create workflow templates.
  2. Select Grant from the Create/edit a workflow template dropdown. The new user role is called Workflows Template.
  3. Click the Save button at the top right-hand corner of the page.
  1. Now click the Assign user roles button.
  1. Check the Workflow Template role checkbox for each person who needs permission to create workflow templates.
  2. Click the Save button to save these changes.

Now the people you've just selected will have permissions to create workflow templates. They'll only be able to create workflow templates for the project you selected.
