Business Process Flows UI to See/Edit Security Roles

In Dynamics 365, when you click ‘Edit security roles’ in the BPF user interface it doesn’t show you which security roles are enabled

To get the user interface to view or edit the security roles attached to a Business Process Flow (BPF), you need to manually construct the URL in a specific format. Here’s how you can do it:

URL Format:

https://org-name.crm11.dynamics.com/tools/dialogs/RoleAssignment.aspx?dType=1&oid=%7bbpf-id%7d

Components:

  • org-name: This is the base URL of your Dynamics 365 environment (e.g., https://org-name.crm.dynamics.com).
  • bpf-id: The GUID of the Business Process Flow record.
  • Change crm11 to match your region

Quick approach


When you open a BPF in make.powerapps.com the URL is like this:

https://org.crm4.dynamics.com/Tools/ProcessControl/UnifiedProcessDesigner.aspx?id=%7bAB81C1AF-1A45-48D9-8133-3EDC033DBEEF%7d

Simply highlight everything in bold and replace it with

/tools/dialogs/RoleAssignment.aspx?dType=1&o

Which gives the URL for the page that shows the security roles.

https://org.crm4.dynamics.com/tools/dialogs/RoleAssignment.aspx?dType=1&oid=%7bAB81C1AF-1A45-48D9-8133-3EDC033DBEEF%7d
