Cakewalk for App Owners

Why Use Cakewalk?

As an App Owner, you are responsible for governing access to the apps you own. Cakewalk makes this easier by:

  • Giving you visibility into who has access and why.

  • Routing access requests directly to you.

  • Keeping full audit logs of every decision.

  • Letting you take action directly from Slack.


🧑‍💻Everyday Workflows

Reviewing Apps & Accesses

  • Access full app metadata (security, compliance, company info).

  • View current users, permission levels and last access times.

💡 Why this matters: Quickly spot unused or risky access.


Approvals

  • Receive tasks to review requests for app you own via Slack or in Cakewalk.

  • Make approval decisions fast, with all the context you need built in.

💡 Why this matters: Employees get faster access, you maintain oversight.


Actioning

  • Grant/remove access, change permissions or archive apps.

  • Tasks are assigned automatically by Cakewalk.

  • For supported apps, access is auto provisioned by Agent Cake reducing operational overhead for app owners.

💡 Why this matters: You stay in control of your apps without chasing tickets.


Access Reviews

  • Receive review tasks when an access review is scheduled for one of your apps.

  • See a list of users, their permissions and last activity.

  • Decide whether to approve, revoke or change permissions.

  • Complete reviews directly in Cakewalk.

💡 Why this matters: Access Reviews are critical for compliance (SOX, ISO, SOC 2) and for reducing risk from unused or over-privileged access. As an App Owner, your input ensures your apps stay secure and compliant without IT chasing you for sign-off.
