Parallels Browser Isolation: Insights

insights in parallels brows of isolation has three views the first is live reports this shows you what's going on right now so in this view it showing you the number of users who are connected and where they're connected to we've then got user events so this is an audit of everything all of the users collectively have done whether they've been allowed to do it or whether they haven't we'll come back to that and then you've got admin events so this is an audit of all the administrator events that have happened in the console that you're looking at but let's just go back to user events one of the really good and useful things that the user events screen has got is it tells me which URLs have been denied so this is really handy when I'm trying to set up permissions for a web app so as we've established in a previous video if you go and have a look at the applications video you can walk through that when I try and access a URL that's outside of the published URL of a web app I'm automatically denied access to that when that user is denied access to that that is what appears in this view so what I'm able to do is when I'm setting up the app uh click on the links that I want to be able to work they will fail I will come back into the audit View and we'll be able to rectify that situation in this example you can see that there's a URL which is kb. parallel. comom that's been denied so what we're going to do is we're going to open our web app and we're going to allow a domain now we are allowing the parent domain so parallel. comom we could specifically allow kb. parallel. comom here and that would only allow that subdomain to be used here we're putting in the parent domain of parallel. comom which means if any of the other links need any of the other subdomains within parallel. comom they would also work as well so let's go go and test that out in our web app we open the web app and then we click on a link that's going to take us outside of the URL that is published and rather than get denied that now works if we come back again and we try and open a another link which is launching in parallel. comom but this time not in the knowledge base we can see that that also works to show you what that looks like back in insights if you look on the right hand side you can see the first links were to my parallel. comom that was the login page that appeared I then clicked on a knowledgebase article which is kb. parallel. I then clicked on Live status page that was status. parallel. comom because I allowed the parent domain of parallel. comom that's what allowed my web app to access those URLs so this is one of the things that makes the insights page really useful specifically when you're looking at setting up web apps and it brings us to the end of this techbites video on parallels browser isolation insights to find out more about parallels browser isolation tune in to the other videos in this techbite series
