How to Set a Reviewer for an App
Who can use this feature
- Supported on Foundation, Growth, and Scale plans
The Reviewer for an application is the Scrut user responsible for reviewing and overseeing that app.
How to Assign a Reviewer
1: When Moving an App to Managed
You can set a Reviewer as part of the workflow when moving an application from Discovered or Restricted to Managed. See How to Manage Discovered Applications.
2: Assign or Update a Reviewer in the Managed Tab
- Navigate to Access Review → Applications → Managed.
- Click the application name to open its detailed view.
- Click the Reviewer field in the header. A dropdown appears listing all Scrut contributors by name and email.
- Select the user you want to assign. The selected user will be pre-filled as the reviewer the next time you create an access review for this application.

Note: Changing the Reviewer does not affect any access review already in progress. The change applies only to future reviews.
3: Automatically via Access Review completion
When an access review for a Discovered or Restricted SaaS app is completed, the app moves to Managed, and the reviewer assigned in the review is automatically saved as the app Reviewer.
