activiti: how to execute a script as if I was an admin

Hello,

I am having a problem with running a script inside an activiti task.
Some tasks are assigned to users who have no access permissions to certain files that need to be changed via a script on that part of the task. The most sane thing for me to do would be ro run that script as an admin, but I cant figure out how.

I've tried this:

<activiti:taskListener event="assignment" class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.activiti.tasklistener.ScriptTaskListener">
&nbsp; <extensionElements>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <activiti:field name="script"><activiti:string>my script is here</activiti:string>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <activiti:field name="runAs"><activiti:string>admin</activiti:string>
&nbsp; <extensionElements> 
</activiti:taskListener>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

but it does not work.

This (jbpm way) does not work either.
<runas>admin</runas>

Any other ideas are welcome too

Try this:

        <activiti:taskListener event="create" class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.activiti.tasklistener.ScriptTaskListener">
          <activiti:field name="runAs"><activiti:string>admin</activiti:string></activiti:field>
          <activiti:field name="script">
            <activiti:string>YOUR SCRIPT GOES HERE</activiti:string>
          </activiti:field>
        </activiti:taskListener>‍‍‍‍‍‍
