# Enabling Box Automate

<div className="article_labels_list" style={{display: 'none'}} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: "Admin , Established , P1 , Box Automate"}} />

Box Automate streamlines business processes through automated workflows. This guide provides administrators and co-admins with the necessary steps to enable, govern, and delegate workflow management across the enterprise.

## Managing Box Automate access

To manage Box Automate for end users, admin must configure the enablement settings within the Admin Console.

### Configuring Box Automate

1. Navigate to the **Admin Console** > **Enterprise Settings**.
2. Select the **Content & Sharing** tab.
3. Scroll to the **Box Automate** section.
4. Click **Edit configuration**.
5. Under **User Access:**
   * **Enable** for all users
   * **Disable** for all
   * **Enable** for some users
   * **Disable** for some users
6. Click **Save** to apply changes.

<Note>
  **Note:**

  * Disabling Box Automate at the enterprise level will immediately pause all active workflows. Use caution when modifying global enablement settings.
  * The setting within Admin Console - Content & Sharing labeled Prevent collaborators from moving or copying content to a folder where they have a higher permission level is not applicable to actions performed by Automate Workflows executions.
</Note>

## Governance and security considerations

Administrators can maintain robust oversight of automated workflows to ensure security and compliance standards are met.

### Access and approval controls

* **User Access Management**: Use the allowlist settings in Enterprise Settings to ensure only authorized personnel or specific departments can build automations.

### Monitoring enterprise activity

Once permissions are granted, co-admins can access the **Automate** tab to monitor the status of all enterprise workflows.
