[Feature Request] Flow Grouping: Implementing Flow-Level Grouping for Enhanced Management and Access Control
Reasons for Suggestion
Introducing the concept of grouping specific flows together, similar to a folder system, would allow for better organization and management of flows. This would make it easier to handle permissions and access controls on a group level, enhancing security and operational efficiency.
Content of the Proposal
Implement a feature that allows flows to be grouped together at the flow level, not just within individual flows. This "folder-like" system should allow for CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on groups of flows, which can be controlled based on organization and user permissions.
Technical Considerations
- Development of a new UI component to facilitate flow grouping in a clear and intuitive manner.
- Backend logic for grouping flows and managing group permissions.
- Ensure that the flow grouping mechanism is flexible enough to accommodate future changes and integrations.
Potential Use Cases
- Project-Based Organization: Grouping flows by project or team can streamline management and access, especially in larger organizations.
- Security and Compliance: Easier to manage compliance with policies by restricting access to sensitive flows grouped under specific criteria.
I think it's necessary to structure this component now, while it's still in the development stage, to avoid migration issues later.
