# 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 **Requests** section. Once a user is selected, the corresponding **Pending Requests** are displayed.
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](/saas/configuration/integrations/data-and-integrations/registering-metadata/schema-monitoring/reference-guides/schema-monitoring.md#data-source-requests) or the [Connections guide](/saas/configuration/integrations/data-and-integrations/registering-a-connection/reference-guides/connections-overview.md#data-source-requests).
