The app directory allows you to create a list of official external apps that members can access.

Once configured, members of the platform will have access to the app directory and will thus be able to directly access the various applications activated by the administrators.

It is possible to activate and configure the app directory from Administration → App directory.

The app directory can be configured:

  • Manually, more than 1000 apps are available

  • Via an Okta SSO solution (Single Sign On)


Configure and activate the app directory

To manually configure the app directory, in the Select the app provider, it is necessary to choose the Default (+ 1000 apps) option.

It will then be necessary to activate the app directory by clicking on Activate the feature for all users of your platform.

Once activated, you will be able to find:

  • Activated apps

  • All available apps

  • Personalized apps

You can also create your own apps and search for existing apps.

Once the module is activated, all members of the platform will have access to a new tab APPS in the left sidebar. They will find the applications that the administrators have activated and configured.
