Once the module is active, Simple Workflow causes Islandora to react differently to certain users' permissions upon ingest of an object. Most users' uploads will be set to 'inactive' upon ingest, and will be invisible* to anyone without permission to view inactive objects. The following permissions can be set up for particular groups at htttp://path.to.your.site/admin/people/permissions, under the Islandora Simple Workflow section:

...

Beyond this, any user wishing to upload objects needs to be part of a group with appropriate uploading permissions, i.e. 'Create new repository objects' and 'View repository objects' at http://path.to.your.site/admin/people/permissions.

Note
title*

While the objects are "invisible" in the sense that they cannot be searched or browsed, they can still be accessed by direct link and will be index by the XML Sitemaps Module if it is enabled.

Note

It is important to check your Fedora installation's XACML policies to make sure that nothing is preventing your user from uploading objects with an inactive state. For example, your Fedora installation may include the policy file 'deny-inactive-or-deleted-objects-or-datastreams-if-not-administrator.xml', which would prevent Simple Workflow from functioning as intended. You can check the XACML policies on your server at $FEDORA_HOME/data/fedora-xacml-policies/repository-policies/; in a standard installation they will be located in the 'default' directory at the end of that path. After making changes to XACML policies, you will need to restart Fedora.
