Configure the Project Workflow

This Bloomreach Experience Manager feature requires a standard or premium license. Please contact Bloomreach for more information.

Introduction

Goal

Configure the workflow for the the Projects feature.

Background

The Workflow Process Management add-on adds the Projects feature to Bloomreach Experience Manager which includes a project workflow. At this point, there are only two configuration parameters for the project workflow.

Configure Approval Policies

Node: /hippowpm:hippowpm/hippowpm:approvalpolicies/dx-projects

Property Type Default Value Description
hippowpm:approvalpolicy Long 2 The number of approvals required before a request is accepted.

hippowpm:ignoreDocumentReadPermissions

Boolean true Show the document name to users that do not have permission to read the document

Show table fullscreen

Prevent Changes in Core

Node: /hst:[projectname]/hst:configurations/[channelname]

Property Type Default Value Description
hst:locked Boolean false Setting hst:locked to true on a channel prevents CMS users from being able to make changes directly to the core of that channel and forces them to use the Projects workflow.

Show table fullscreen

Due to a UI bug, the menu editor in a locked core channel is still accessible. However, changes made in the menu editor cannot be saved in a locked core.
Locking core only applies to channel configuration, not to content.
