The approvals tab displays the pending team join requests that need approval from the team admins or as a 'network admin' you can approve them on the team admin's behalf. Approvals are triggered when a user requests to join a private project and private group.
Pending Approvals Count: The number of pending approvals on your domain for joining a project or group.
Name: Name of the user requesting the approval to join a private project or private group.
Email ID: Email ID of the user requesting the approval to join a private project or private group.
Requested On: Date on which a user requests to join the private project or private group.
Requested For: Name of the private project or private group for which the user is requesting the approval.
Actions: Action to accept or decline the request of the user to join a private project or private group.
The Approvals tab is NOT displayed if you do not have any pending approvals on your domain.
To accept a single request:
Click the ACCEPT button to accept a user's join request to a private project or private group.
Mark "Automatically generate an update on the team wall with the mention of the user" to post a system generated message on the private project or private group's wall mentioning the newly joined user. It is optional to generate this feed.
Click Approve.
User Notification: A user receives a notification in the Notifications tab after you accept the join request. Click the Notifications bell icon to see the notifications.
Update on the team's wall: If you marked the "Automatically generate an update on the team wall with the mention of the user" check-box while approving the join request, the system automatically posts an update on the private project or private group's wall mentioning the user.
User notification (User Portal > Change My Settings > Notifications Settings > In-app & Email) in the notifications list is dependent on the settings adjusted in the User Portal for each user.
When a user requests to join a private project or a private group, the network admin and the team admin both receive the join requests as a notification. If you have turned on the email notifications for your domain, you also receive an email when a user requests to join your private project or private group. A team admin can go to the Requests tab of the private project or private group to accept or decline the join requests. Also, a team admin can accept or decline a join request from the notifications list.
You MUST be the owner of the private project or private group to receive an email for the pending approvals.
Log into your email inbox.
Click the email from MangoApps and then click the View all pending requests button to redirect you to the private project or private group's page.
In the 'Requests' tab, click the ACCEPT button to accept a user's join request to a private project or private group.
Click the DECLINE button to reject a user's join request to a private project or private group.
Declining a request does NOT generate any notifications.
Click the ACCEPT ALL or DECLINE ALL button to accept or reject all the join requests to private projects or private groups by users on your MangoApps domain.
Accept All does NOT post an update on the private project or private group's wall for the approvals. A user receives a notification in the Notifications tab after you accept the join request.
Declining all requests do NOT generate any notifications.
