For a current list of supported platforms and applications, see [Third-Party Software Support](https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/faqs/#what3rdParty) on the *AWS Support Features* page. ## Assign user access to applications * **Note**\ To help simplify administration of access permissions, we recommend that you assign access directly to groups rather than to individual users. With groups you can grant or deny permissions to groups of users, rather than having to apply those permissions to each individual. If a user moves to a different organization, you simply move that user to a different group. The user then automatically receives the permissions that are needed for the new organization. When assigning user access to applications, IAM Identity Center does not currently support users being added to nested groups. If a user is added to a nested group, they may receive a “You do not have any applications” message during sign-in. Assignments must be made against the immediate group the user is a member of. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://awsnotes.dendron.so/security-identity-and-compliance/aws-iam-identity-center-successor-to-aws-single-sign-on/topics/application-assignments.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
