Roles and Permissions

⚠️

Pre-requisite: Please ask your single-sign on (SSO) Admin to follow these instructions (link) to configure Moveworks for your organization (link) and enable this application for you

MyMoveworks is your one-stop portal to access all Moveworks applications. Within MyMoveworks there are a variety of applications (Moveworks Setup, Analytics, Agent Studio, Knowledge Studio, etc.)

This guide will explain how to grant users access to specific applications.

Roles and Permissions for Administrators

Moveworks provides Role-based Access Control (RBAC) capabilities for all Moveworks developed applications. As an administrator, learn to manage access to applications through the “Roles and Permissions” application in this section.

There are three types of access you can configure for each user and application:

  • Admin: A role that can grant or revoke access to a specific licensed app for other users.
  • Super Admin: A role that can grant or revoke access to all licensed apps for other users. They can also grant or revoke admin access to applications. Moveworks Super Admin has the same access as the bot, bypassing any underlying system/data/API access controls.
  • User: A role that can access one app. They cannot add or remove access to these apps.

Additionally, some applications like Agent Studio have additional roles controlling access to analytics for that particular application.

You can access Roles and Permissions from your My Moveworks application through your single-sign on (SSO) app homepage or by logging into https://my.moveworks.com.


Don’t see Moveworks in your list of SSO applications? You might not be a super admin or Moveworks app administrator. Request access from your organization's super admin or Moveworks customer success.

Don’t see Moveworks in your list of SSO applications? Check that your SSO admin has enabled the application for you.

Can’t log intohttps://my.moveworks.com with your email? Ensure your SSO admin has granted access to your desired email address.

Can’t log intohttps://my.moveworks.com with your SSO admin? Ask your SSO admin to Contact support to validate your SSO configuration with Moveworks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  1. Can Moveworks view the roles and permissions in my environment or make changes in my environment on my behalf?
    1. Yes – Moveworks uses an administrator account (similar to moveworksadmin@<domain>.com) to help you view your configurations, make roles and permissions changes, or take other actions on your behalf in your My Moveworks applications. This service account is automatically inserted into your user roster when you configure Moveworks. This account is not used for any other purposes.
  2. Is audit data available when Moveworks makes changes in my environment, or when configuration details are viewed by Moveworks?
    1. Moveworks stores internal logs of all role changes described in the previous section. You can reach out to Moveworks Customer Support or your Customer Success team for access to this information.
    2. Audit information for configuration changes in Moveworks setup or extensibility through Agent Studio is available to audit through SFTP. Please read our SFTP data dictionary to learn more.
