Access Denied Error When Saving Workflow Templates Or Snippets

ISSUE

When trying to save a workflow template or snippet, with a user account that has both "Full Control" permissions at the web level and is a member of the "Allowed Workflow Designers" list, an Access Denied error might occur.

RESOLUTION

Grant desired user accounts "Contribute rights" to the hidden library at the site collection level. The library is located at: YourSiteURL/NintexTemplates.

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Nintex Workflow Templates and Snippets are saved into a hidden library at the site collection level, so while a user account will be able to publish a regular list workflow at the web level, when attempting to save a template or snippet their site collection permissions are being checked and failing.
