How It Works
The workflow initiates with a manual trigger, systematically querying Zammad's role management system.

The process leverages HTTP requests and set operations to modify role parameters, ensuring each role matches organizational standards. Error handling and logging mechanisms provide comprehensive tracking and validation of role updates.
