Administration

Everything an IT administrator needs to connect, govern, and operate the platform at the enterprise level. Connect once, set policies once, then hand off to your finance teams.

Audience: IT (the enabler) and risk and compliance reviewers

What this section covers

Workspace, teams, and users→Manage who has access, how they are organized into teams, and what they can do.Single sign-on and identity→Connect your identity provider so users sign in with the credentials they already use everywhere else.Connections→Integrations, MCP servers, and data sources. Everything you connect to the enterprise.Audit and evidence→The audit lenses, deterministic execution, COSO alignment, and the evidence packages your auditors need.

Self-hosting

If you run the platform in your own cloud account rather than on Sema4.ai infrastructure, start with Self-host Sema4.ai. This section assumes a running workspace.

Self-serve versus centrally managed

Not every connection has to come through IT. For most integrations, IT does at most a one-time foundation: a team admin then connects the integration once for their team, and builders add it to their Projects. The per-provider pages under Connections name the actor for each setup stage. Use this section for the centrally managed work; expect team admins and builders to handle the rest.
