Managing Agents

Agentic Fabric provides a registry of enterprise, endpoint, and browser agents used across your organization with visibility into their activity and relationships across humans, agents, machine identities, and resources. On the Agent Registry page, you can manage the ownership of agents, organize them by their associated business app, and access their identity graphs.

Viewing the Agent Registry

You can review the agents discovered and registered from connected agentic platforms, browsers and endpoints, and SaaS applications in the agent registry.

To view the agent registry:

  1. Go to Agentic Fabric.

  2. From the navigation menu, go to the Non-Human Identities section and select Agents.

    Select the quick filters on the Agent Registry page to refine the agents listed in the table. You can view agents discovered in the last 30 days as well as those marked as unsanctioned or missing an owner. On the All Agents and Discovered quick filters, you can hover over the line graph to view the agent count by day.

    Additional filtering can be applied by selecting + More. Select Clear All Filters to clear all configured filters.

From the agent registry, you can review the following information about each agent:

  • Owners: The agent’s primary owner and additional owners.
  • Agent Type: Indicates whether the agent is an enterprise, browser, or endpoint agent. If Agentic Fabric detects new agent activity that it has yet to classify, the Agent Type will be listed as Unknown. This may occur in cases where a newer agent is discovered.
  • Business App: The business app the agent is associated with. The business app may display a warning if the app is unsanctioned by your organization.
  • Status: Indicates whether the agent is active or inactive. You can change the status of an agent by activating or deactivating it.
