Overview
In order to make a User Access Review, the app must be created. When starting a new User Access Review, the app name is asked as the first question. If the app does not exist in Squarum, it will be created when starting the Access Review.
Apps can be created either from
- From the Apps menu: Choose from the left navigation menu ‘Apps’ > Click the ‘+ Add app’ button
- From the Access Reviews menu: Choose from the left navigation menu ‘Access Reviews’ > Click ‘Start Review’ button > Click ‘Add app’ button from the ‘Choose app’ dropdown
Basic App Settings
An app item has the following basic settings (only available from the Apps page):
- App name: Provide the app name (compulsory field)
- License: Provide the license, plan or version of the app (optional field)
- Icon: Upload the app icon or logo as png-file (optional)
- Owner: Enter the app owner email address (compulsory)
- Why needed: additional info of why the app is in use in your organization (optional)
- Status: Active / Inactive
App Wide Access Review Settings
Default reviewer: define the default reviewer for a user when adding users to the Access Review. If the reviewer is available in the new copy/paste list or if the reviewer can be found from a previous review, then these are used. Only if the reviewer cannot be found for a user to be reviewed, then this setting is used.
Reviewer can review own account: Choose Yes, if the reviewer can Approve/Revoke their own account. Choose No, if the reviewer cannot be the same as the User being reviewed.
App Users
Navigate to App – User tab to manage users assigned to the app.
Add users
Click on the ‘+Add users’ button to add users one-by-one, or copy/paste a user list from a spreadsheet.
Remove users
- To remove a user click on the ‘Recycle bin’ icon on the right side of the user in the table.
- All removed users can be found from the ‘All users’ dropdown by selecting ‘Removed users’.
Update users
Click on the ‘+Add users’ button to mass update users and user attributes from a spreadsheet. You can update all user attributes like first name, last name, and user role(s).
About multiple user roles/permissions
Each user can have one or multiple roles/permissions assigned. In case of multiple roles, add each user and role to separate rows in your spreadsheet. For example, if a user has two roles/permissions to approve, then this user must have two rows in the spreadsheet with only the ‘User role’ column differing.
How multiple user roles affects the User Access Review?
Each user role has to be approved separately by the Reviewer.
You can filter the users table by
- Active/Removed users: Click on the ‘All users’ dropdown and select ‘All users’ or ‘Removed users’
- User Access Review result: Click the ‘All results’ dropdown and choose ‘Approved’ or ‘Revoked’.
- Reviewed by: Active / Inactive
- Access Review performed to a user: Yes/No
