WorkflowGen v10.3.0 Preview

WorkflowGen 10.3.0 Preview introduces two major integration updates: the new WorkflowGen MCP Server preview for AI agent-assisted workflow operations, and SMTP OAuth 2.0 delivery for Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online. This release also includes targeted User Portal, Workflow Designer, packaging, and deployment improvements.

WorkflowGen MCP Server Preview

WorkflowGen now includes a preview MCP Server that lets compatible MCP clients, including Claude Cowork and Codex, connect to WorkflowGen through the MCP Streamable HTTP transport. The MCP Server is installed as a Node.js/iisnode application under \wfgen\mcp and is exposed by default at:

https://<workflowgen-url>/wfgen/mcp

The MCP Server uses OAuth-based client authentication with dynamic client registration, authorization code with PKCE, refresh token rotation, token revocation, durable OAuth storage, and scope-based authorization. Administrators can configure the server from Administration > Configuration > Integration > MCP Server, including OAuth server enablement, key and secret management, MCP resource URI, allowed scopes, and diagnostic log level.

This preview exposes MCP tools for common WorkflowGen operations, including requests, actions, datasets, comments, processes, launchable processes, viewer context, favorites, delegations, users, groups, participants, process definitions, applications, categories, folders, and global lists. Tool discovery is filtered by the approved OAuth scopes: mcp:read, mcp:write, mcp:process_admin, and mcp:admin.

MCP browser login requires WorkflowGen to be configured with OIDC or SAML authentication. Other WorkflowGen authentication modes are not supported as MCP OAuth browser login sources in this preview.

For setup instructions, see Getting started with WorkflowGen MCP Server preview.

MCP Packaging and Upgrade Notes

The MCP Server is included in the manual and upgrade packages. New installations receive the required MCP application files automatically, while upgrades include the files needed to add MCP to an existing WorkflowGen environment.

For manual installations, the package installs a usable \wfgen\mcp\web.config.

For upgrades, the upgrade package provides \wfgen\mcp\web.config.sample so that an existing MCP IIS/iisnode configuration is not overwritten. For first-time MCP enablement from an upgrade package, copy or rename this file to web.config; if web.config already exists, compare and merge the sample changes.

SMTP OAuth 2.0 for Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online

WorkflowGen now supports SMTP server (OAuth 2.0) as an email delivery mode for Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online. This lets WorkflowGen send notifications, forgotten password emails, and SMTP test messages through Exchange Online using OAuth 2.0 client credentials instead of basic SMTP authentication.

The Configuration Panel includes the required SMTP OAuth 2.0 fields, validation, localized labels, and SMTP test behavior. The mail delivery implementation includes OAuth token caching, timeout handling, trace diagnostics, and safer handling of token request failures and SMTP sender information.

This feature targets Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online. Generic SMTP OAuth providers and Google Workspace-specific OAuth support are not included in this release.

User Portal

  • Bug (#4702): Preserved process folder manager precedence when checking request cancellation rights.

  • Bug (#4704): Preserved the superuser context when redirecting from supervisor widgets.

Workflow Designer

  • Bug (#4696): Increased the Workflow Designer double-click timing window to improve reliability when opening designer elements.
