Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account to read these docs?

No. This documentation site is fully public. You need a Mesh account only to use the product itself.

How does Mesh decide an identity is risky?

Mesh runs pluggable risk engines against correlated identity data (accounts, entitlements, activity, and external signals such as breach exposure). Each engine emits signals with a severity, and the dashboard ranks identities so you can triage the most important items first. See Your first dashboard view.

How often is data refreshed?

Each connector collects on its configured schedule. Risk engines evaluate the correlated data after collection, so new signals may take a collection cycle or two to appear.

Which systems can I connect?

Connectors are organized by category (identity providers, HR, ITSM, cloud & directory, endpoint). Browse Connectors & Integrations for the current list and per-connector prerequisites.

Where do I report a documentation issue?

Documentation is maintained as code. Open a pull request or issue against the mesh_docs_svc repository.
