Alteryx Server -- Generate List of Users and What Workflows They Have Access to.

smoskowitz — Tue, 18 Jan 2022 17:01:35 GMT

Hello --

Is there a server usage report, API functionality or something else that will give me a list of users and what workflows they can access? We might need this for quarterly SOX reporting and want to see ow to simplify the process.

Thanks,

Seth

Hi @smoskowitz

I guess if you use a mix of API calls, you are able to achieve what you're looking for.

I'd try to combine the calls together:

GET /admin/v1/users/

GET /admin/v1/subscriptions/

/admin/v1/collections/

GET /admin/v1/workflows/

Linking the appropriate ids - subscription Id, user Id, collection Id and workflow id can give you an idea on how to track workflows and user access.

Cheers,

@Thableaus --

Thank you, let me see if I can figure this out, but always appreciative of being pointed in the right direction.

Building on what @Thableaus said check out what you can access from the admin/v1/collections/ endpoint:

    ]
  }
]

If your server is primarily set up with users accessing workflows via access to a collection this should have what you want.
