Approval flow

To launch secrets where approval from the members of the approval group(s) is required, an approval profile needs to be set up.

By default, secrets do not require approval to access them. See Enabling approval profiles for a secret.

The approval profile defines the number of tiers of approvals required for the user to be able to launch the secret. Each tier includes the following information:

  • The number of approvals required to pass through the tier.

  • The users reviewing the secret request.

  • The user groups reviewing the secret request.

FortiPAM supports up to 3 approval tiers.

See Approval profile.
