Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a use case and a how-to guide?
What's the difference between a use case and a how-to guide?
A use case explains how a set of C1 capabilities work together to solve a problem — good for building a mental model or evaluating a workflow. A how-to guide walks through one specific task step by step. Use cases link out to the how-to guides and reference docs that cover their individual steps in depth.
What's the difference between a request and a review?
What's the difference between a request and a review?
A request is something you ask for, like access to an app. A review is something you’re asked to do, like confirming that a colleague’s access is still appropriate as part of a user access review campaign. Both can show up as tasks that need your attention.
Why can't I see an app I need access to?
Why can't I see an app I need access to?
C1 admins control which apps and permissions you can see and request, based on your department or role. See How to request new access for more on how this works.
Why did my access change without me requesting it?
Why did my access change without me requesting it?
Someone with the right permissions — an approver, an admin, or an automated policy — can grant or revoke access on your behalf. Check How to complete access change tasks if you’re the one responsible for making that change for someone else.
How do I make sure I see task notifications?
