Configuring and Scheduling the Permissions Collection

Permissions can be analyzed to determine the application permissions of an application, provided you have defined an identity store for Data Access Security to use in its analysis, and you have run a crawl for the application.

Users should always run the crawl task before running a permission collection task.

To configure the permission collector:

  1. Go to Admin > Applications.
  2. Scroll through the list, or use the filter to find the application.
  3. Click the edit icon on the line of the application.
  4. Select Next until you reach the Permission Collector settings page.

Note

The entry fields vary by application type.

When entering this page in edit mode, navigate between the various configuration windows using the Next and Back buttons.
