The system dashboard provides an overview of the current status of AppControl. Use the information on this page to verify that AppControl has been properly configured, and that there are currently any known issues. Note that the information here relates only to the operation of AppControl and not to to operation of the apps managed by AppControl.
When you first login as a user with the Platform Administrator role, you will be re-directed to this page if the configuration of the system is incomplete. After completing the configuration and resolving any errors, click the 'validate configuration' button to re-check your configuration. If it is complete and there are no errors, you will no longer be re-directed to this page.
