# Manage Access Requests and Tasks

Your outgoing and incoming requests for data source access are consolidated on the requests tab on your user profile page. Similar to notifications, a red dot also displays on the request icon whenever you have pending requests. The sections below guide you through managing these requests.

## Manage requests

1. Navigate to your **Profile** page, and then click the **Requests** tab. The names of the users who have submitted requests are displayed in the left pane. Once a user is selected, the corresponding pending requests are displayed on the right.
2. To view more information about the request, click the **Details** button in the **Actions** column of a request.
3. Click the **Approve** or **Deny** button in the **Actions** column of the request.

### Bulk approvals

To approve or deny multiple access requests simultaneously,

1. Navigate to your **Profile** page, and then click the **Requests** tab.
2. Select the **checkbox** next to each request you want to address, and then click the **Approve Selected** or **Deny Selected** button.

## Manage Tasks

If users make an unmask request, a tasks tab will appear for the data source listing the target and requesting users, the task type, and the state of the task. From this tab, users can view and manage two different task views:

* **Your Created Tasks**: This page lists the status and information of the unmask requests you've submitted.
* **Tasks For You**: This page lists the status and information of the unmask requests that have been submitted to you.

To complete a task,

1. Navigate to the **Tasks** tab from the **Data Source Overview** page, and then click the toggle at the top of the page to **Tasks For You**.
2. Click the **Unmask Values** icon in the **Actions** column of the task.
3. A dialog box will appear with the masked and unmasked value. *Note: You can view information about this request, including the reason for the request and the date is was created,* *by clicking the **Task Info** button in the **Actions** column.*

To delete a task,

1. Navigate to the **Tasks** tab from the **Data Source Overview** page, and then click the toggle at the top of the page to **Tasks For You**.
2. Click **Delete Task** in the **Actions** column of the relevant task.
