# Veza Documentation

Secure and understand your environment with Veza integrations and products.

## Platform overview

Veza's Access Graph integrates with cloud identity providers, cloud IAM, cloud services, apps, and data systems to discover authorization metadata, translating the complexity into a simple language of effective permissions.

Veza then provides insights into the relationships between entities such as identities, policies, roles, and resources, and enables users to create reports, queries, access reviews, and more using the latest data or a historical snapshot. Risk, compliance, security, and IT teams use Veza for visibility into which people and automated services can access sensitive data assets.

Veza answers the questions "Who has access to what," and "How do they have access?" With Veza, you'll pass your audits faster with less pain, be empowered to lock down data to only those who need it, and securely migrate cloud assets.

## Getting started

If you're new to the platform, you can learn about Veza features and recommended first steps on the [Getting Started](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/getting-started-with-veza.md) overview.

Depending on how much initial setup you have completed, you may need to integrate Veza with your identity, app, and data providers using the [Configuration](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/configuration.md) page.

After initial integration discovery to populate the data catalog, you can get immediate intelligence through [dashboards](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/features/insights/dashboards.md), [search](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/features/search.md) connections between entities, and begin defining your own [risks](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/features/insights/risks.md) and conditional [alerts](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/features/insights/rules-and-alerts.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.veza.com/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
