Requesting and Approving Memberships

PrivX users can submit requests to grant or remove membership from roles, either for themselves or on behalf of others. To submit a request, go to the Requests→My Requests page and click New Request.

In a request, you need to specify (at least):

The user whose membership is to be granted or revoked.
The role to be granted or revoked.

You can review the status of your requests on the Requests→My requests page.

PrivX users can approve and deny requests on the Requests→Approvals page. Click a request to submit a decision. Only the mapped users of a role can submit decisions required from the role. Additionally, users can't approve their own requests.

You need to have an existing workflow for a role before users can request/revoke memberships from the role. For more information about workflows, see Managing Workflows.

Role changes take effect within 1 - 5 minutes from being applied.

A request must gather all the approvals to be approved; One denial is enough to deny an entire request.

Users granted membership by the rules of the role can only be removed by adjusting the rules.

Users can't have multiple requests for the same role. For example, if you need a role for multiple time slots, you will need to create a request for one time slot, and have that approved before requesting the role for another time slot.

OpenID Connect users can't request memberships for roles.

If the request-workflow approver's roles are changed, all existing workflow requests can still be approved by members of old approver roles.
