Visibility
Access Management has another sub-section called Visibility. Your application's visibility on the platform can be set as 'Public' or 'Private'. This can be set by selecting Public or Private from dropdown.
Public Applications: All users in the platform will have read access to public applications, and only write access can be granted to these applications. i.e. Public applications can be viewed by all users, but only users with write or maintain access will be able to edit or make changes to these applications.
Private Applications: Private applications will not be visible to all the users. They will be visible and editable only to those users who have been granted the relevant access. i.e. users will specifically need read access to private applications in order to view them, and write or maintain access in order to modify them.
Once you select the type of visibility, click on Change Visibility button. A pop-up window will appear to confirm selection. Click Yes, I am aware to change visibility and a success message will be displayed as “Visibility changed to public/private successfully. “
