Changelog
Quick Start with Microsoft Defender
With our new Microsoft Defender integration, getting started with AppNavi Discovery has never been easier. Department and country attributes already available in Defender can be used right away, allowing your teams to explore application usage and generate valuable insights from day one—no setup required. If you need more detailed analytics and advanced features, you can switch to the Chrome Extension at any time for deeper discovery.
Flexible Department Data Integration
Discovery now supports multiple options for delivering department information to the platform. Whether passed directly to the Chrome Extension via PowerShell at user login or automatically retrieved from MS Entra (Azure AD), you have the freedom to choose the integration method that best fits your environment. This flexibility ensures accurate reporting and segmentation tailored to your unique organizational structure.
Enhanced Attribute Support from MS Entra
Discovery now automatically retrieves key user attributes like department and country from MS Entra (Azure AD) when available. This enables even more granular analysis and segmentation—without any need for additional user synchronization or complex setup. Gain greater visibility into application usage across regions and departments with ease.
Integrated Task Management
The brand new task management feature lets you manage all activities related to discovered apps directly within Discovery. Easily create, assign, and track tasks—either manually or automatically when new applications are detected. Notifications and reminders help your team stay organized, improve data quality, and maintain compliance.
Application-to-Business Process Assignment
You can now assign applications to specific business processes and generate targeted reports. This provides a clear overview of how software supports critical business activities and helps you identify opportunities for optimization or consolidation.
Smarter App Classification & Compliance Checks
App classification has been made even more flexible and transparent. Use your own rules, patterns, and lists to determine which applications are considered official or shadow IT. Automated compliance checks ensure your requirements—such as data residency or authentication standards—are always met, simplifying audits and strengthening governance.
AI Innovation Report
Our new AI Innovation Report highlights how departments and regions are adopting AI-powered tools across your organization. Instantly see where digital transformation is accelerating and where targeted support could drive even more value. Exportable reports make it easy to share insights with stakeholders.
Expanded App Metadata
Discovered applications now include new metadata fields for compliance, risk, and innovation—such as data residency, criticality, handling of personal and sensitive data, and AI productivity usage. All fields are fully filterable and visible, providing a complete and up-to-date app inventory.
Multi-Dimensional Usage & Compliance Reporting
Reporting capabilities have been enhanced to cover usage and compliance from every angle: by business process, application, department, and region. Easily export all reports for benchmarking, audits, or executive summaries, enabling more informed decision-making.
Simplified Configuration & Role Management
Discovery configuration is now more intuitive than ever, with clearer roles and easier assignment of business processes and departments. Streamlined admin tools help reduce complexity and ensure only authorized users can make critical changes.
