Configure user task access restrictions

Tasklist V1 only

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

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

In Tasklist V2, task visibility is controlled by authorization-based access control rather than user task access restrictions. For details about how authorizations work in Tasklist V2, see authorization-based access control.

User task access restrictions are used in Tasklist V1 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 you retrieve tasks using the APIs, the APIs return all tasks.

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