OpenProcessInstance requires elevated rights?

I'm calling the SourceCode.Workflow.Client.Connection OpenProcessInstance(id) method and getting "[user] does not have permissions to open the process".


I know Update requires elevated rights, but the user has the process in their queue (that user is a destination, and the process is in a client event). Are admin rights required just to open the process? Any good reason for this?


Thanks!

Thank you!


I did a grep of our source and did not find any production code that was using this, so hopefully we'll be OK. I'm working on porting our wrapper library code from K2 2003 to K2 blackpearl.


The business case we were concerned about was our K2 Web Service (used by legacy non-.NET code). That has to operate in a stateless, disconnected manner.
