Track the request

After you submit the request, the extension shows the request status in the same app view. If approval is still pending, you can nudge the approver or cancel the request.

Use frequent requests

If the app appears under Frequent requests on the Home tab, you can request it directly from there. This is the fastest way to request tools you use often.
