# Report Catalog

A tool that allows you to provide previous information on reports, often used in scenarios where you want employees/users to know that certain information exists.

If they wish to access a specific report, they can request access.

The report is displayed exclusively on this screen and only if the “Show in report catalog” option is activated when the report is registered.

When the report is made available in the data catalog, users have the possibility to request access, providing a justification for viewing the report.

After requesting access, both the administrators and contributors of the workspaces associated with the report are notified by email and via the viewing portal.

The notification is displayed as an example in the screen below

To ensure effective management of access requests, the system sends automatic alerts, allowing those responsible to review and approve or reject access requests.

Administrators and contributors can manage these requests directly from the viewing portal, facilitating control and information security.
