Approval & Settings

🛡️ You need Admin rights for this. Anyone can view the page.

Before Clarios can show you anything, it needs your one-time approval to read data from your Microsoft 365 environment. There are two levels:

  • Read app: Clarios may read devices, users and domains. This is the basis for every dashboard.
  • Write app: Clarios may also do something, e.g. fix a security issue. Optional.

You give both under Settings (bottom of the menu).

Give approval

  1. Sign in as an administrator.
  2. Open Settings at the bottom of the menu.
  3. On the Read app tile, click Grant read access.
  4. You land at Microsoft. Check the list briefly and click Accept.
  5. You come back to Clarios. The tile turns green (Consented), and the dashboards fill up over the next while.
  6. Optional: on the Write app tile, click Enable write mode to allow changes.

✅ Done. Clarios is approved and the data is coming in.

Understanding the status

The Settings page shows three tiles with a coloured marker:

  • Consented (green): all good.
  • Partial (orange): approved, but a few permissions are still missing (see the Missing permissions tile).
  • Drift detected (red): Clarios lost access. Click Re-grant to renew the approval.
  • Not consented (grey): not approved yet.

Good to know

  • Missing permissions lists what’s missing per area. Click Re-consent Read app or Re-consent Write app to catch up.
  • Without approval the dashboards stay empty. That’s not a fault, just the missing first step.
