How can produce a list/report that shows which Profiles have access to an App?

Question

I am attempting to see which Profiles (or more specifically which Roles) have access to an App. I can see this by going into each individual Profile and checking their Custom App Settings section of a Profile, but I would rather have a list showing me which Profiles have a specific App checked as Visible without going into each individual one.

Is there a way to do this ? I saw that somebody referred to PermComparator for this, but that is not the right solution because it only allows you to check several Profiles at a time. It's not an ideal solution.

Thank you.

Answer 1

Rather than going to the profile, you can go to your custom app and click "edit", and it will list the profile visibility.

As for which roles have access, what you can do (Read/Create/Edit/Delete) is controlled by the profile, and which records of those objects you can see, is controlled by role. The app access doesn't relate to a users role, so some users in a role may see the app when others do not. You can see which users have access by looking at the users assigned to the profiles with access.
