Applications

In the Cetegra Workspace, the Applications module under Administration enables admins to manage and configure the applications available to users.

This module is exclusive to admin users. Admins can create new application launchers, organize them into folders, set access permissions, and more.

Adding an Application Launcher #

To configure a new application, click Add Application Launcher.

• Hide title: Opt to display/hide the title beneath the application icon.

  • Only available for external users: If selected, the application will only be available for users with IPs that are NOT defined as internal.

• Folder: Group the application in a specific folder. Learn more about application folders below.

Setting Permissions #

Control application visibility by assigning Active Directory (AD) groups in the Permissions tab.

Icon #

Choose an appropriate icon for the application from the Icon tab. Use the search function to find the perfect icon.

You can finalize the icon selection and return to adjust other application details before saving. This eliminates the need to reopen the application configuration.

For more on icon management, check out the Icons module.

Organizing Applications in Folders #

Use the Application Folders tile to manage and group applications.

To create a folder, click Add application folder. Input the folder’s name and select the applications to include in it.

Applications can also be allocated to folders directly from their settings. See the General Settings section above for more details.
