Exclude Users or Devices
Hello Community Members,
we have some unsanctioned apps in MCAS and created a service user which still should have access to those domains.
Is it possible to excluse users or devices so that they wont be blocked when accessing the domains?
Thanks in advance 🙂

Can anyone help me with how to add exceptions (for users or devices) for an unsanctioned app like Dropbox? Is there a solution for that?

Dear Microsoft,
I have the same question, i have some unsanctioned apps which by default is applicable for all the users<
I want to create a exception for some people, i tried using the exclude entities option , i tried adding both user by email and excluded devices as well. but still it is not working. User is unable to access the unsanctioned app.
I believe only adding a tag of the unsanctioned app will not block the apps, we need to enable the enforce app access. we enabled this setting and iocs were added to the mde. - SuperNotDuperCopper Contributor
is there any way to perform this? Why is this feature not added from get-go? such a pain and will cause the product not to be used now...
- JonhedIron ContributorThe only option available to override MCAS unsanctioned apps, is to create custom network indicators in MDE.
This override can only be assigned to MDE device groups though, so if you want to limit this to specific users, these users will need to have personally assigned devices (as in devices not shared with other users).

Such a shame there isn't an exclusion area in Cloud Security.. makes me wonder if anyone trialed or feedback was even conducted with real world business operations in mind.

- Ugur_KocCopper ContributorHello,
thank you. I can not choose any users, it says: No items to show. Also I can not see all of the devices, only some of them.
Any ideas?- LuizaT

The users and Devices from the Cloud Discovery data that is analysed should be there. If you go to Cloud Discovery Dashboard, do you see your user there? If not, can you use generate some traffic for that user?
