Privilege Checking

Privilege Checking

This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.

The Workflow Event Sink enforces security by checking privileges at run time. The event sink performs this check to prevent an unauthorized person from changing the scripts, workflow process design, or other application data. For privileged mode workflows, it verifies that all the design-time pieces of a workflow were last modified by a member of the Privileged Workflow Authors role. This includes:

• ProcessDefinition
• CommonScript
• Event Sink Registration

After checking privileges, the event sink calls the Advance Method. The call to the Advance Method fails if any of the design-time pieces of the workflow were last modified by anyone other than a member of the Privileged Workflow Authors role. For more information about registering Privileged Workflow Authors, see Registering Workflow Authors.
