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 dual-lens audit, 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. Many integrations are self-serve OAuth: a builder connects their own account inside their Project. The per-provider pages under Connections name the actor for each setup stage. Use this section for the centrally managed work; expect builders to self-serve the rest from inside the Project context.
