Workflow¶
The workflow functionality passes a content item version through a series of stages.
For example, an editorial workflow can pass a content item from draft stage through design and proofreading.
Cohesivo comes pre-configured with a Quick Review workflow. Workflows are permission-aware.
Reviewers¶
When moving a content item through a transition, the user can select a reviewer.
To be able to search for users for review, the user must have the content/read policy without any limitation, or with a limitation that allows reading users.
This means that, in addition to your own settings for this policy, you must add the /Users subtree to the limitation and add users in the content type limitation.
Draft locking¶
You can configure draft assignment in a way that when a user sends a draft to review, only the first editor of the draft can either edit the draft or unlock it for editing, and no other user can take it over.
Use the Version Lock limitation, set to "Assigned only", together with the content/edit and content/unlock policies to prevent users from editing and unlocking drafts that are locked by another user.
Workflow event timeline¶
Workflow event timeline displays workflow transitions.
Permissions¶
You can limit access to workflows at stage and transition level.
The workflow/change_stage policy grants permission to change stages in a specific workflow.
You can limit this policy with the Workflow Transition limitation to only allow sending content in the selected transition.
