Workfront Project share
Hi team ,
Issue Overview
We recently encountered an issue in Adobe Workfront where users were unable to view a project, even though everything appeared to be configured correctly.
Scenario
- A project was created by a user who belongs to:
- Parent Group: International
- Subgroup: INTL MKT GROUP
- The user’s Home Group was set to INTL MKT GROUP
- The project was also created under INTL MKT GROUP
The project was shared with three users who were also members of the same subgroup.
Problem
Out of the three users:
- ✅ One user could see the project
- ❌ Two users could not see the project
This was unexpected because:
- All users belonged to the same subgroup
- The project was correctly aligned to that subgroup
- Sharing permissions were applied
- No filters were restricting visibility
Resolution
When the two affected users were additionally added to the parent group (International):
- ✅ The project immediately became visible to them
Key Observation
Even though:
- The project was assigned to the subgroup
- Users were members of the same subgroup
👉 Access was only fully enabled after adding users to the parent group
Help with this case provide the answer
