Every flow has a Settings panel (titled Workflow Settings) that controls its behavior, visibility, access, and notifications. To open it, go to the Flows list, hover the flow you want, click the menu on its card, and select Flow Settings.

General

Set the flow’s core identity and defaults.

Steps Visibility

Controls whether requesters can see individual steps as their task progresses.
All steps are visible by default. Individual steps can still be hidden.

Permissions

Controls who has access to the flow and what they can do.

Roles

Add users by clicking + Add and selecting Everyone, specific members, or groups. Remove access with the × next to an entry, or change a role from the role dropdown.
This is the general flow-access role set. Task-level roles (Owner, Assignee) are separate — see Roles and Permission Levels.

Field edit permissions

Choose a default for every field in the flow:
  • All Fields Need Approval — every field requires approval before a change takes effect, unless overridden at the field level
  • No Approval Required — every field can be edited immediately, unless overridden at the field level
Use Fields Require Approval to name exceptions to whichever default you picked.

Notifications

For each lifecycle event, choose who’s notified: Owner, Assignee, Requester, or All.

Naming

Build the filename template used for documents this flow produces.
  • Task Title — Chamelio names tasks automatically. Choose Agent (an AI-generated title from the document’s content, guided by your own prompt and @ tokens like @Workflow name) or Manual (a fixed template you build with @ fields, with a live preview).
  • Version Preferences — control how stored versions are named during the negotiate step.
  • Signed Document Preferences — control how contracts are named once signed.

Reminders

Automatic nudges based on a task’s status and deadlines.
  • Who to remind — applies across all reminder types below
  • Days in step — remind assignees after a task has sat in a step for N days, on a repeat cadence
  • Task not assigned — alert when a task has no assignee, after a configurable delay
  • Task overdue — escalate when a task misses its due date
