3. How to approve and manage user access (for approvers only)

  1. Approvers receive an email with a link to approve or deny the access request. The request is valid for 14 days. When the approver clicks Approve or deny in the email notification, they are redirected to the Approvals page, where all their pending requests are listed. The approver can also access this page directly using this link.
