  • Publication number: 20240126846
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying and consenting to permissions for workflow and code execution. Aspects of the invention can be used to automatically scan a workflow or code definition to identify (potentially all) the actions/triggers a workflow or program intends to perform on behalf of a user. The user is shown the actions/triggers the workflow or program intends to perform (e.g., at a user interface) before consent to perform the actions/triggers is granted. As such, a user is aware of intended actions/triggers of a workflow or program before granting consent. Further, since actions/triggers are identified from the workflow or code definition (and not formulated by an author), permission requests better align with permissions that workflow or program functionality actually uses during execution.

  • Patent number: 10846204
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for remedying design time and runtime workflow errors. During design time of a workflow, an input parameter provided via the user interface may be validated to determine if the parameter is invalid. Based on the determination, a replacement parameter may be obtained and provided to the user interface control of the workflow user interface to replace the invalid workflow parameter during development of the workflow. During runtime of a workflow, a workflow engine may generate failure information where workflow logic fails to execute successfully. The failure information generated in response to a runtime failure is received by a remediation system and may be analyzed to identify a probable cause of the runtime failure. Remediation instructions to remediate the runtime failure may be determined and transmitted to a contact address associated with the workflow, enabling the workflow to be repaired.
