Configure system settings

System settings define instance-wide behavior in Nutrient Workflow Automation.

Access to System Settings and related Settings menu items is based on permissions. Administrators can view and manage system settings broadly, while non-administrator users may view only delegated settings they have permission to access, such as Database Sources. Each settings item honors its own permission.

Open and edit system settings

  1. In the Workflow portal, click the Settings icon in the upper-right corner.

  2. Click System Settings.

  3. Find the setting you want to change.

  4. Click the Edit (pencil) icon in that row.

  5. Update the value.

  6. Click Save.
