Configure user task access restrictions

Tasklist V1 only

User task access restrictions are only supported with the Tasklist V1 API and are currently not supported in V2. From Camunda 8.8, Tasklist runs on V2 by default.

To continue using user task access restrictions, see switching between V1 and V2 modes to enable Tasklist V1 mode.

For Tasklist V2, use authorization-based access control to manage user permissions and control access to tasks.

For more information about the differences between V1 and V2, see Tasklist API versions.

User task access restrictions are used in Tasklist to control task access for a user or a group.

They are enabled by default and can be disabled using the userAccessRestrictionsEnabled Tasklist environment variable. This configuration does not affect API users. When retrieving tasks using the APIs, all tasks are returned.

See Tasklist authentication documentation on user task access restrictions for configuration details.
