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
