Hi Folks, what role is required to be able to create Business Applications? I've searched the documentation and I cannot seem to find this. 

Thanks in advance.

Then you are talking about this "cmdb_ci_business_app".

OOB these roles are allowed to create:

  1. itil
  2. asset
  3. cmdb_ot_editor
  4. cmdb_ot_admin

Hey Job,

I found something in docs:

If you have an APM user role (sn_apm.apm_user), use the Business Application Life-cycle Management services to request, add, or retire a business application.

Role required: sn_apm.apm_analyst

We do not have APM in our environment. As an Admin, I can add Business Applications, but I need to determine a lesser role that allows this too, so other team members can input these. 

Then you are talking about this "cmdb_ci_business_app".

OOB these roles are allowed to create:

  1. itil
  2. asset
  3. cmdb_ot_editor
  4. cmdb_ot_admin

Thanks Aman! OOTB, this appears correct in my PDI, but our PROD environment apparently had an ACL modified. Thanks for your help.
