-Click on an Application Card to open an application.
+===== 2. Request access to Apps and Data =====
-You'll be taken through an [[app_store_connect:authorize_apps_to_connect_to_your_data|Authorization Process]].
+By default, you will only have access to demo data sources; but if your organization has an App Store Connect installed, secured organization data sources may also be available. Contact the App Store Connect administrator to request access to company data sources. (Intelligent Plant can advise if you're not sure who to contact).
+//Note that access to company data sources can only be granted after you have registered (ie. logged in for the first time) with the Industrial App Store.
+//
-===== Connect to Data =====
-Most apps on the app store require a data source connection.
+===== 3. Open an Application =====
-Demo data sources are available, but your own data is more interesting. If your organization has App Store Connect installed, contact the App Store Connect owner to request data access. Or install your own App Store Connect to share your own data sources((If using a workplace computer, check your organization's policy before installing data connectivity software)).
+The home page lists the apps currently available. To find out more about a specific app, click "More info" on the App Card and explore product descriptions and online resources.

-===== Get Credits =====
+You'll be taken through an [[app_store_connect:authorize_apps_to_connect_to_your_data|Authorization Process]] where the app will prompt you for data access. Demo data sources are available, but your own data is more interesting. This will only be available if step 2 (above) has been completed.
