Illustrative idea · ACCESS GOVERNANCE
Review a staff permission-change request
Compare a requested access change with a person’s current permissions before an owner decides.
Use a role-change list as a proposal—not unchecked permission changes.
Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.
Review a spreadsheet that lists people and their proposed support roles. Match each person carefully using their work email, show current and proposed access together, and let an authorized access owner approve the exact changes before any permissions are updated.
Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.
Role-change spreadsheetAn approved spreadsheet with work email addresses and proposed support roles
“Match spreadsheet entries to existing users, prepare a least-privilege change proposal, and hold all role updates for authorized review.”
Work through the request.
Clear tasks, with review where it matters.
- Confirm the spreadsheet and its owner
- Match each person to an existing account
- Compare current and proposed roles
A person-by-person comparison of current and proposed roles, with uncertain matches and all changes awaiting approval.
What this workflow could do
Helps administrators review a prepared list of support-role changes without relying on manual record-by-record lookup.
Review points proposed in this idea
A spreadsheet can be outdated, altered, or matched to the wrong person, and a role can grant more access than intended. Limit the source and account permissions, verify each identity and requested role with an owner, reject ambiguous or excessive access, and require approval before every account permission change.
How the idea could work
Select an illustrative task to explore its proposed role. No workflow runs here.
-
Verify that the file is current, approved for this purpose, and maintained by an authorized person.
-
Use work email as a matching aid and pause for duplicates, unknown addresses, or conflicting user details.
-
Show the exact permissions that would be added or removed and flag changes that exceed the approved access policy.
-
Have an authorized access owner confirm each person, requested role, and least-privilege need.
-
Update only the reviewed accounts and roles, leaving uncertain or unapproved entries unchanged.
Step 1 of 5
Confirm the spreadsheet and its owner
Verify that the file is current, approved for this purpose, and maintained by an authorized person.
Proposed setup considerations
These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.
- 01
Set spreadsheet ownership and format
Define who may provide the file, which columns it may contain, and how its currency is verified.
- 02
Limit account and file permissions
Restrict the source file and use only the account access needed to review and apply approved role changes.
- 03
Define role and identity checks
Document valid roles, work-email matching rules, duplicate handling, and how requests for excessive access are rejected.
- 04
Assign an access approver
Name who approves each user’s exact permissions and confirm that failed or uncertain matches are never changed automatically.
