What is the purpose of Request Rules?

The purpose of Request Rules in the context of Saviynt is primarily to define and manage the conditions under which entitlements are granted or requested during an Access Request System (ARS) interaction. When a user makes a request for access to specific resources, Request Rules determine what entitlements can be applied based on certain criteria or policy requirements.

These rules facilitate compliance and control over the granting of permissions, ensuring that only the appropriate access privileges are assigned based on the user's role, attributes, and any other defined parameters. By streamlining and automating the entitlement application process, Request Rules help maintain security and governance across the identity and access management framework.

In contrast, the other options focus on different aspects of policies that are applicable during the access request process, such as password governance, user policies, or dataset governance, which are not the primary focus of Request Rules. This specialization in entitlements allows for greater precision in managing user access rights efficiently and effectively.
