How to Submit a Workflow for Role Access Requests

Overview

An Access Role Request allows you to conveniently request a role for the required server or Kubernetes cluster. Upon approval, the role is granted immediately, and you can access the servers or Kubernetes clusters permitted by the role.

Submitting a Role Access Request

• Workflow > Submit Request > Role Access Request

STEP 2 Select approval rules and assign approvers.

  • Approval rules determine who must approve the request. If the rule specifies approvers, they will be automatically assigned.
• Approver: Use the + button to add approvers at each stage of the approval workflow.
  • A single assignee can complete the approval request: Any one approver in a group can approve the request.
  • All assignees must approve this request: All assigned approvers must approve the request for it to proceed.

STEP 3 Select Target Role
