Manage Access Requests and Tasks

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

Manage access 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 data source requests

If a policy that includes the New tag is active and schema monitoring is enabled or you have registered a connection, Immuta applies a New tag to new data sources, new columns, or changed columns and sends data owners a request to validate those changes.

1. Navigate to your Profile page, and then click the Requests tab.

2. Click the approvals count in the Request Information column to view information about the change to the data source. The change will be one of the following:

   • Column added

   • Column changed

   • Column deleted

   • Data source created

3. After verifying the change, click Validate.

For more information about these requests, see the Schema monitoring guide or the Connections guide.

Manage unmask requests

If users make an unmask request, a tasks tab will appear on the data source overview page for the user making the request and the user receiving the request. 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 Tasks For You toggle.

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, click Delete Task in the Actions column of the relevant task.
