Managing Business Apps

A business app is a grouping of non-human identities that represents a single logical application, agent, service, or tool across all its individual instances. A business app can be a collection of applications.

The Business Apps page provides users a central list of their business apps. Administrators can declare a business app's sanction status, determining which business apps are permitted or prohibited in their organization.

The sanction statuses are:

  • Sanctioned - Business apps globally approved for use within your organization.

  • Unsanctioned - Business apps prohibited by the organization.

  • Unknown - Business apps with no classification decision.

Administrators can select a sanction status during onboarding. The system discovers active business apps from the organization's identity provider. The administrator selects the sanction status for provided and discovered business apps.

After onboarding, administrators can update their decisions or add new business apps using the Business Apps page.

After a business app's sanction status is selected, matching agents automatically inherit the sanctioning decision of the business app.

Note

Business App sanction statuses will not be actively enforced, and business app usage will not be blocked. Admins can observe and track these tools and create actionable reports.

To view discovered business apps:

  1. Go to Agentic Fabric > Business Apps.

  2. (Optional) To filter or refine the listed business apps:

    • Search for business apps by name in the Search bar.
