My Apps

Where My Apps sits in the side navigation, default sort and grouping, the favorites hover menu, and how to get an app that is missing.

My Apps is a page in Insight Cloud that lists every app you have access to, with search, filters, grouping, sorting, and favorites. It gives you one place to find and open your apps, whether your organization subscribes to a few or to many.

You may also see My Apps referred to as the app list or your apps, or favorite apps; people often ask about it as "where do I find my apps" or "why can't I see an app."

Applies to: Insight Cloud
You'll need: Nothing beyond a sign-in. All roles see My Apps, and nothing on the page is gated by role. Which apps appear depends only on which apps you have been given access to.

Where to find My Apps

In the side navigation, My Apps is the second item, directly after Home.

After you favorite at least one app, hovering over My Apps in the side navigation opens a menu. From that menu you can go to the My Apps page or open one of your favorite apps directly.

What you can do with My Apps

  • Search for an app by name, description, or metadata.

  • Open an app by clicking its tile or row.

  • Filter the page to see a subset of your apps.

  • Group the page by a different tag, such as Use Cases or Publishers.

  • Change the sort order, for example App Name A-Z or Newest First.

  • Expand an app's card to read a brief description of its purpose.

  • Favorite an app so you can open it from the My Apps hover menu in the side navigation.

What's on the My Apps screen

The following table describes the controls on the My Apps screen.

Quick Filter -Collections

Shows a list of collections you have, and selecting one will show which apps are in that collection.

Quick Filter -Sectors

Shows a list of sectors, and when selected, will filter the apps shown to those with those Sector tags. If you do not see this, your apps do not utilize the Sector tag.

Quick Filter -Topics

Shows a list of tropics, and when selected, will filter the apps shown to those with those Topic tags. If you do not see this, your apps do not utilize the Topic tag.

Regroups the page by Data Providers, Publishers, Sectors, Topics, or Use Cases.

Sort by

Orders apps by App Name A-Z, App Name Z-A, Newest First (by Content Date, newest to oldest), or Oldest First (by Content Date, oldest to newest).

Expand

Enlarges an app's card to show a brief description of its purpose.

Add to Favorites

Marks the app as a favorite. Favorites open from the My Apps hover menu in the side navigation.

How My Apps groups and sorts your apps

My Apps starts with default settings. Apps are grouped by their Use Case tag, and the groups appear in alphabetical order. Apps are sorted by date, newest first.

You can change the sort order, regroup the page by a different tag, or filter the page to a subset of your apps.

If you have no apps with a tag of a given type, My Apps does not show that type as a filter or grouping option, because it would have no members. If you group by a tag type that some of your apps lack, those apps appear under a catch-all group named More Apps. For example, if none of your apps has a Data Type and you group by Data Type, all of your apps appear under More Apps.

How to open an app and favorite it

  1. In the side navigation, click My Apps.

  2. Find the app. Use Search, or browse the groups.

  3. Click the app's tile or row to open it.

  4. To favorite the app, click the star on the app's tile or row.

You'll know it worked when you hover over My Apps in the side navigation and the app appears in the hover menu.

Favoriting an app does not change your access or permissions. It only changes how the app is organized for you.

Limits and what My Apps can't do

  • My Apps does not let you converse with the AI on what apps you have. It is a page for finding and opening apps.

  • My Apps does not let you see other people's app access.

  • My Apps does not let you share app access with anyone.

  • My Apps only lists apps you already have access to. An app you can't see does not appear in Search or in any filter.

  • Favoriting an app in My Apps does not grant or change access to that app.

My Apps vs. other app pages

My Apps is the page where you open the apps you already have access to. It is not the place to browse or subscribe to new apps. For that, see App Store Basics.

The Collections control on My Apps shows all the Collections you have access to. Selecting one will apply the filter criteria for that Collection to your My Apps for quick filtering. See Home for more.

Three other pages also list apps, but they are for different audiences. Apps covers managing apps in your workspace. App Management is the builders' list of every app your organization has built. App Catalog is for Seek Admins and shows listings for every publisher.

If an app is missing from My Apps

If you don't see an app you expect to have access to, you have two options:

  1. Contact your organization admin and ask for access.

  2. Request access yourself through the Insight Cloud App Store. Open the App Store and find the app. If your organization already subscribes to it, you can request access to it. This sends a notification to your admin to grant you access.

If you open a link to an app you don't have access to, you get an error page saying the app is not available. Use the same two options above to get access.
