Application connectors¶

Permission Assist has over 300 application connectors, which are used to add applications. There are two types of connectors:

• Read-only connectors - A connector that imports application security data into Permission Assist and organizes the data in an easy-to-read format. A read-only connector cannot change information within a third-party application; it can only get information from the application
• Read/Write connectors - A connector that connects to a third-party application in a way that allows Permission Assist to:
  • Import application security data into Permission Assist
  • Send application security data to a third-party application
  • Update application security data within the third-party application

To view a list of all your available connectors, go to System Configuration and select Software Updates.
