Adding App Profiles

Minimum Role: Organization role of Organization Administrator

Prerequisites: Installation of an App to which a profile can be applied

Overview

The App profile feature is a valuable tool for administrators who customize the installation of TC Exchange™ Spaces Apps in ThreatConnect^®. A profile serves as a proxy for the App, and users interact directly with the profiled version of the installed App. Decoupling an App from a configuration profile allows System Administrators to configure multiple profiles of an App and, subsequently, give permissions to different Organizations based on that profile. Moreover, this added level of abstraction allows the same App to be configured to work slightly differently at installation.

App profiles allow administrators to customize installed Apps in the following ways:

• Set default parameter values for an App;
• Assign privileges to different profiles for the same App;
• Define setup parameters required by the App.
