Controlled Tool Access (allowed executables)

The Controlled Tool Access feature allows a project admin to specify a controlled list of tools at the project level that limits what can be run by users in that project. This benefits customers who have clinical GxP requirements and want a locked-down workflow experience.

To enable this feature a project admin needs to specify a list of tool IDs on the command line using the following syntax:

dx api project-xxx update '{"allowedExecutables":["app-yyy","app-zzz"]}'

You can find the app and workflow IDs by running:

dx describe <app-name>
dx describe <workflow-name>

To update the list, you must re-enter the entire list.

To view the list of allowed executables in a project use:

dx describe project-id
