🪺Applications and Groups Tabs

Overview

The Applications and Groups tabs in the User 360 profile can show you a user's static entitlement data, providing a better understanding of what a user has access to, and how they have access to it.

The Applications and Groups tab are the fifth and sixth tabs, respectively, of the User 360. Below we'll dive into the specific data and functionality for each tab.

Applications

On the Applications tab, you will see a table of the applications assigned to a given user, as well as a few visualizations related to the user's application usage.

Applications table elements

The section below details the fields that appear in the Applications table, as well as the definition of each field:

Element	Definition
Name	The application name and application user ID a ssociated with the application for the user If an application is on your Sensitive Applications list, there will be a 'Sensitive Applications' tag next to the application name
Source	The identity source associated with the application assignment
Status	Only available for Okta The Okta application status
Assignments	The group membership that allows a user to have access to a particular application. Users can gain access to an application without a group (blank or 'directly assigned application') or via more than one group, where you'd see multiple group names in this column
Owners	Only available for Entra The individual listed as the application's owner in Entra
Usage Count	The number of times a user has used a particular application By default, the table is sorted on usage count in descending order (most frequently used to least frequently)
Last Access (UTC)	The last date and time the user accessed an application
Result	The result associated with the user's last access attempt for an application

Applications tab general actions

The Applications table offers multiple high level features that are similar to what can be found elsewhere in the platform. Click through the tabs below to learn more about how to utilize each feature.

View Activity

View Activity

Click the 3 dot button to the right of the last column, to find the View Activity action. This will take you to the user's Activity tab, pre-filtered on the application name, so that you can see all of a given user's activity/events for a particular application.

View Users

View Users

Click the 3 dot button to the right of the last column, to find the View Users action. This will take you to the Users page, pre-filtered on the application name, so that you can see all the users in your environment who have this application assigned to them.

Sort columns

Sort columns

All columns, except 'Assignments' and 'Owners', can be sorted in ascending or descending order on the Applications table. To sort by a specific column value, click the column header to switch between ascending and descending. By default, the Applications tab is sorted in descending order (highest to lowest) on Usage Count.

Add more rows to table

Add more rows

By default, the Applications table will show 12 rows at a time. To see 24 or 48 rows in one view, click on the Rows per page button on the bottom right of the Applications table

If there are more than 48 applications assigned to a user, use the left and right arrows to navigate to other pages.

Application usage visualizations

The Applications tab has 3 widgets that display data about a user's application assignment and usage trends.

• Applications usage - Total number of applications assigned to the user, broken down by used applications and unused applications

  • Hovering over a segment of the pie chart will display a tool tip with the application count

• Applications usage over time - A given user's total application usage count per day, color coded by application

  • Hovering over a segment of a given bar will display a tool tip with the date, application name and usage count. By default the view is set for 30 days, but this can be adjusted to see a wider or smaller window of time using the + and - buttons in the top right corner of the widget

• Median apps per user - Compares the median number of applications a particular user has assigned to them versus all users in the organization, other users in their department and other users reporting to the same manager (if department and manager data is available for the given user)

  • Hovering over a bar will display the median application count per user for each category

To export any of the visualizations, click on the 3 line button in the top right corner of the desired widget. Downloading as a SVG or PNG will export an image, whereas downloading as a CSV will export the raw data for you in CSV format.

Groups

Similar to the Applications tab, the Groups tab also shows you static entitlement data related to a given user's group assignments.

If there have not been recent changes to a user's groups, the changelog widget to the left of the Groups table will not be visible.

Search issues

Use the search bar above the Groups table to search based on various fields such as group name, description or associated application names. When searching, you do not need to provide an exact value. Typing a piece of the word will return results.

You can also add a value from the Type or Source column as a search parameter by clicking the value in the table (ex: Role or Okta).

If you have searched on a particular parameter, the search criteria is retained as you navigate between different tabs within the platform.

To clear the search bar click the X on the right most side of the search bar.
