Note: ArcGIS Workflow Manager (Classic) is set for deprecation in the last quarter of 2027. Esri recommends transitioning from ArcGIS Workflow Manager (Classic) to the service-based Workflow Manager. For more information, refer to ArcGIS Blog Announcement: Deprecation of ArcGIS Workflow Manager (Classic).
Assign the Workflow Manager user type extension license to the user. Refer to Portal for ArcGIS: Configure user type extensions for further instructions. Ensure the correct ArcGIS Workflow Manager license is selected.
Note: The license requirement for the ArcGIS Workflow Manager user type extension is removed in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2.
