Hi, I am interested in setting permissions in workflow dynamically. Say, you started a workflow on a resource "R". And a user "C" does not have permission to read "R". But if a task is assigned to the user "C", I would like to make the resource "R" readable to the user "C" while the user "C" doing his task.

Could you give the complete code ? I think your workflow does this job. If it does not how may I do it ?

Hi, we use workflows on folders and in our case we simply assign all the users that are assigned a task as Collaborators to the bpm_package that holds the documents. I'm not sure if this works when the workflow is started on a document. Maybe you have to create a second loop that cycles through the docs of the bpm_package.

                   <expression>
                        &lt;import resource="classpath:alfresco/module/spdworkflow/workflows/spd_workflow.js"&gt;
                        for (i=0; i &lt; bpm_assignees.size(); i++) {
                            bpm_package.setPermission("Collaborator", bpm_assignees.get(i).properties["cm:userName"]);
                        }
                    </expression>
