Version 17 of Umbraco Workflow has a minimum dependency on Umbraco CMS core of `17.0.0`. It runs on .NET 10.

This version introduces granular permissions for Workflow features:
- Active Workflows: Read
- Advanced Search: Read
- Alternate Versions: Create, Read, Update, Delete, Promote
- Approval Groups: Create, Read, Update, Delete
- Configuration: Read, Update
- Content Reviews: Read
- Document: Initiate, Unlock
- History: Read
- Release Sets: Create, Read, Update, Delete, Publish

Default permissions are set in a migration:
- Administrator group has all permissions
- Editor group has all Read permissions
- Other groups have no permissions

Workflow settings (for content approval, content reviews and release sets) are relocated to the Settings section. Combined with the above permissions, this allows broader access to the Workflow section. Permission can be read-only for the views in the Workflow section (Approval Groups, Active Workflows, Content Reviews, History).

### Legacy version specific upgrade notes

You can find the version specific upgrade notes for versions out of support in the [Legacy documentation on GitHub](https://github.com/umbraco/UmbracoDocs/tree/umbraco-eol-versions).
