# HCL AppScan

Let’s learn how to configure visibility for **HCL AppScan**. It's an Integration for ISD application that pulls data from an external data source for ISD to use in making informed decisions.

Following are the steps:

1. Add / Edit application & its respective services. [**Refer to this page**](https://docs.opsmx.com/user-guide/manage-application) to know how to add / edit applications.
2.  Add **HCL AppScan** as an Integration to the ISD system. [**Refer to this page**](https://docs.opsmx.com/user-guide/data-sources) to learn how to add an         Integration.
3. Next, click on your application and go to the **pipeline builder** page. Here you can add and configure the multiple stages into the pipeline.
4. Click on "[**Add Stage**](https://docs.opsmx.com/user-guide/manage-pipelines/add-stage)" select the stage type as **Approval,** and enter the **stage name.** Here we have given the gate name "TestApproval".
5. Select the **Environment** from the drop-down menu and select the **approver group** from the drop-down menu, which contains the list of user groups who can approve the request. The selected group should have at least view access to the application.\
   If required, select the **Automated Approval** option, which will automatically approve the deployment based on preconfigured conditions.
