Requesting Access with Teams
Use the Apono Teams app to request access
If your admin has integrated Apono with Teams, you can use Teams to request, view, and receive permission to services, databases, and applications that are centrally managed through Apono.
Requesting access with Teams offers several benefits:
Streamline access requests to resources without navigating complex IT systems
Centralize access visibility to view pending approvals and current permissions
Improve security and compliance with centrally managed access
Enhance collaboration by enabling approvers to grant or deny requests directly in Teams

Request access
You can request access to specific resources, an integration, or a bundle in Teams.
A resources request lets you select specific resources and permissions from all available items across cloud environments. Upon submission, Apono separates the form into individual requests based on each resource's access flow.
Follow these steps to request access to resources:
In the Teams menu, click My Requests > New Request. The New Request page appears.
(Optional) On the Resources Request tab, in the Resources field, enter the name of a resource.
(Optional) Apply one or both filters to refine the list of resources.
From the Resource Type dropdown menu, select one or several resource types to filter the list of resources.
From the Permission dropdown menu, select one or several permissions to filter the list of resources.
Select one or several resources. You can select a maximum of 1,000 resources.
Enter the Duration (in Hours) that you want to have access to the resource.
Enter a Justification explaining why you are requesting access to the resource.
Click Request. The request will appear with its status on the Open Requests or Closed Requests tab.
You will also receive a notification through Teams.
After a request has expired or been revoked, you can mark it as a favorite.
Request access again
If your access has expired, been revoked, or been rejected, you can request the same access again from one of the following locations.
Follow this step to request access to a resource, integration, or bundle:
On the My Access page, click
(Request again icon) next to a request under Recent Requests or Favorites.
You will also receive a notification through Teams.
View requests
You can view your open and closed requests.
Follow these steps to view an open request:
On the Open Requests tab, click a request. A panel appears displaying the details of the access request.
Under Access to, click View resources to display the resources to which the request grants access.
