# Access Management
See your active grants, pending requests, pre-approvals, and request history on the Access Management screen.
Access Management is the screen where your organization's users submit, track, and audit access requests: just-in-time access to cloud resources, and, where your organization has enabled the [P0 Runtime Access for AI](/readme/agentic-control-plane.md), AI agent access as well.
Every signed-in user can see Access Management, regardless of role. Unlike Policy Studio, Settings, and Agentic Access, there's no role requirement to view this screen.
## Access Management in the app
Access Management has three tabs: Activity, Pre Approvals, and History.
### Activity
The Activity tab shows your active access grants and any requests still waiting for approval. An active grant has a Relinquish action if it belongs to you and a Revoke action if it belongs to someone else. A pending request has Approve and Deny actions for its approver. See [Requesting access](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/requesting-access.md) and [Approving access](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/approving-access.md) for the full workflows.
### Pre Approvals
The Pre Approvals tab lists standing approvals that skip the request and approval step for specific users or groups. There's no create or edit option on this tab. Pre-approvals are created using the `/p0 allow` Slack command or the P0 CLI. See [Pre-approving access](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/approving-access/pre-approving-access.md).
{% hint style="info" %}
**Don't see Pre Approvals?**
Pre Approvals is an opt-in capability for your whole organization, not a per-user role. Changing your role won't make the tab appear. Contact P0 to enable it for your organization.
{% endhint %}
### History
The History tab lists past requests: who requested what, who approved it, and when access expired. Click a row for more detail, or click **Export** to download the request history as a TSV file.
A **Request Access** button appears at the top of the screen on every tab. Click it to submit a new request without leaving Access Management. See [Requesting access](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/requesting-access.md).
## Configure requests and approvals
Access Management shows requests. It doesn't configure how they get routed or approved. For the full setup, request, and approval workflow, see [Just-in-time access](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access.md). For how P0 decides who approves a request, or whether to approve it automatically, see [Policy Studio](/policy-studio/policy-studio.md).
## Manage requests programmatically
You can also submit and manage access requests without using Access Management. See the [Just-in-time API](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/just-in-time-api.md), including the [Command API](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/just-in-time-api/command-api.md) and [Access requests API](/access-management/access-management/just-in-time-access/just-in-time-api/access-requests-api.md).
