Do I need admin right to add an approval group to a project?

c May 1, 2018

I'm trying to figure out how to add Approval groups when I have a project with a workflow that contains the In Review step. I can't seem to be able to view the approval groups that might have already been assigned and I wondering if that is because of my permissions. I can assign someone to review and and I can approve or reject, I just can't seem to add or create an approval group.

Hi there,

Yes, to add users, create groups and configure the project, you need to have admin rights.

Otherwise, you won't be able to.

once I obtain admin rights, where do I go to set up the approval groups?

Looks like I found it:

  1. Go to Settings > Workflows.
  2. Click Edit next to the workflow you want to edit.
  3. Select Diagram view.
  4. Select the status you want to add an approval to. ...
  5. Select Add approval.
  6. Complete the fields, then click Create.
