Access Requests

The access request feature allows a secret to require approval prior to accessing the secret. Note the following:

• Establishing a workflow model, the user must request access from the approval group or groups.
• An email is sent to everyone in the approval groups, notifying them of the request.
• The request can be approved or denied by any members of the approval groups. Approvals can be set using the setting Require Approval Type to control who requires approval.
• Access is granted for a set time period.
• If Owners and Approvers also Require Approval is enabled, then even owners or those in an approval group needs to request access.
• Requesters cannot approve their own requests.
