Creating a Request Through the Slackbot

This document explains how to create an user-purpose access request via the slackbot.

1. Open the Slackbot and run the /purposes command. This will display a list of all purposes in the tenant.

   
2. To view the connections/resources the purpose provides access to, click on the three-dot menu and click on "Details". This opens up the purpose details dialog.

   
3. To request a purpose, click the "Request" button next to the relevant purpose.

4. Fill all the required fields on the form and click "Submit" to create a new purpose request.

   
5. After creation, the new user-purpose access request will be visible on the Access Requests page. The appropriate reviewer assigned to the request will receive a notification (via email, Slack, or in-app) prompting them to review the request.

6. Once the request is approved by the reviewer the request was assigned to, the purpose will be assigned to the employee.

To use assigned purposes, refer to Starting & Stopping Assigned Purposes.
