Viewing your reviews

Viewing Your Access Reviews

The Review Table is your central hub for managing and acting on access reviews. It provides a comprehensive display of all access relationships relevant to your campaigns, showing what entity (Identity or Connection) has access to what other entity (Connection or Resource), and with what specific permissions, all within a given application integration.

Exploring Review Details

Every piece of information presented in the review table is designed to be interactive, allowing you to quickly dive into more context:

Exploring Entity Metadata

• Clickable Data Points: Every Identity, Connection, or Resource listed in the table is clickable.

• Detailed Sidebar: Clicking on any entity will open a sidebar providing detailed metadata about that specific entity. This metadata gives you rich context about the entity as it exists within its integrated application.

  

Understanding Relationship Permissions

• Clickable Permissions Column: The data displayed in the "Permissions" column within the review table is also clickable.

• Relationship Metadata: Clicking on these permissions will reveal a sidebar or modal providing metadata specifically about the relationship between the two entities shown in that review row. This clarifies how and why the access exists.

To understand what each of these fields (like Connection Provider, Project, and Privileges) indicates, please refer to our dedicated guide on Understanding Entities and Entity Relations.

Understanding Review Grouping Options

BalkanID offers two ways to view your reviews, allowing you to choose the best option for your review workflow: Ungrouped and Grouped by Entity.

Ungrouped Reviews

When reviews are Ungrouped, each individual access relationship is displayed as a separate row in the table. This view allows you to approve or deny each access at a granular level, giving you precise control over every entity relationship.

Grouped by Entity Reviews

When reviews are Grouped by Entity, all access relationships associated with a single Identity or Connection are consolidated into one row in the table. This grouping allows you to action upon all reviews associated with that specific entity at one time, streamlining the review process for entities with many accesses.

To see all the individual reviews associated with a grouped entity, simply click on the "Eye" icon in that entity's row. This will open a detailed view showing all underlying granular accesses.

Viewing a review's audit log

BalkanID provides a detailed Audit Log for each access review, allowing you to track all decisions and changes made over time. This audit trail is crucial for compliance, understanding decision-making, and troubleshooting.

The way you access the audit log depends on whether you're in the "Ungrouped" or "Grouped by Entity" view of your reviews.

In Ungrouped View:

When viewing reviews in the Ungrouped format (where each access is a separate row), you can directly access the action log for any specific review:

• Navigate to the "Details" column for the review row you want to investigate.

• Clicking on the detail icon in this column will open a sidebar. This sidebar provides comprehensive information about the review, including its full details and a chronological audit log of all actions taken on that specific review.

In Grouped by Entity View:

When reviews are Grouped by Entity, you first need to access the granular details for the entity before viewing individual review action logs:

• First, click the Eye icon in the main review table row for the entity you're interested in. This will open a detailed view sidebar showing all the granular reviews associated with that entity.

  
• Within this sidebar's table, look for the details icon (as shown in the image below) in the "Details" column for each individual granular review.

  
• Clicking this icon will then open another sidebar, providing the specific details and audit log for that particular granular review, similar to the ungrouped view.
