Before you can manage CloudAccess, you must deploy and initialize the appliance. For more information about deploying the appliance, see Section 2.3, Deploying the Appliance. For more information about initializing the appliance, see Section 2.5, Initializing the Appliance.
After you have initialized the appliance, the browser automatically redirects to the Admin page. You can also manually access the Admin page as needed. For more information, see Section 3.1, Accessing the Administration Pages. The Admin page allows you to configure and maintain the appliance. The Admin page also provides navigation icons to access other functions as follows:
Policy: Maps roles (groups) from the identity source to authorizations from the SaaS applications. For more information, see Section 6.0, Mapping Authorizations.
Approval: Approves or denies authorizations for the SaaS applications. This icon appears only if you have mapped roles to authorizations and selected the option to require approval for accounts, and there are accounts waiting for approval. For more information, see Section 7.0, Approving Requests.
Reports: Reports on the user activities to the SaaS applications. For more information, see Section 8.0, Reporting.
Roles: Configures roles for different users within CloudAccess. For more information, see Section 3.6.2, Assigning Roles to Users.
Proceed to Section 2.1, CloudAccess Installation Worksheet to gather the information required to install and configure the appliance.
