Approval
A request for authorization before taking an action. Required for high-risk changes.

Quick Tips

  • Check the Dashboard first thing each day to see overall health.
  • Use the Audit Log to understand what happened if something seems off.
  • Always provide a reason when executing Safe Controls - it helps the audit trail.
  • When in doubt, ask for approval before taking high-risk actions.
