sharepoint workflow to add permissions to list with rest api ​​Recently we were developing a SharePoint 2013 style workflow and faced an issue of assigning unique permissions to a list item. In Server Side Object Model we initially break role inheritance and then assign required permissions to a securable object. We tried to use the same approach and faced issues with both steps (though it’s plain how to achieve the required functionality in JavaScript CSOM) There are no activities to break inheritance/assign permissions in SP2013 Workflows.
