Hi Team,

I have to hide workflow model for all but show only to specific users.


I have created a user group with two users in it. and Now show the workflow only to these two users, rest should not able to see. e.g 

hide everyone

Allow "specific-user-group"  [only to those 2 members]


How to do this.?

Seems it doesn't working for me:

Hi @marcos_aem ,

To hide an AEM workflow model from all users except for specific users or user groups, you can follow these steps:

  1. Log in to AEM with administrative privileges.
  2. Navigate to the AEM Workflow Models console by accessing the URL: http://localhost:4502/libs/cq/workflow/content/console.html.
  3. Find the workflow model that you want to hide and select it.
  4. Click on the "Edit" button to modify the properties of the workflow model.
  5. In the properties dialog, scroll down to the "Permissions" section.
  6. Remove the default permission entries by clicking on the "-" button next to each entry.
  7. Add a new permission entry for the specific user group that you want to grant access to.
    • Click on the "+" button to add a new permission entry.
    • In the "Principal" field, enter the name or path of the specific user group.
    • Configure the desired permissions for the user group, such as "Read" or "All" permissions.
  8. Click "Save" to apply the changes to the workflow model.

By setting the permissions for the specific user group, only those users who belong to that group will be able to see and access the workflow model. Other users will not have visibility or access to the workflow model.
