Password-Protection of Workflows and/or Components Knime Server

Hello,

I’d like to correct some information on this thread. To activate the locking of components, please follow these steps:

  1. Shut down KNIME Analytics Platform
  2. Add the following line to your knime.ini file:
    -Dknime.showaction.metanodelock=true
  3. Restart KNIME Analytics Platform

The next steps, as mentioned previously, do require a KNIME Server Large to use:

  1. write in a support ticket to support@knime.com and we provide you with a Hex code to use on your components to lock them.
  2. Once you receive the response, you can use the hex code plus your password for encrypting Components and/or Metanodes. (See the ‘Lock…’ option in the Component/Metanode context menu by right-clicking the component/metanode.)

Thank you,
Nickolaus
