### Application Scope Management

Enable Application Scope Management to modify the allowed scopes for an application. Adding or removing a scope affects access to this application for all users in your organization. Disabling a scope revokes any existing authorizations for applications that have the scope granted.
Enable Application Scope Management to modify the allowed scopes for an application. Application Scope Management is available for the Datadog Mobile App and MCP applications.

Only MCP applications support Application Scope Management.
Adding or removing a scope affects access to the application for all users in your organization. Disabling a scope revokes existing authorizations that include the scope. Affected users must re-authorize the application to regain access with the remaining allowed scopes.

Use {{< ui >}}Automatically allow new scopes{{< /ui >}} to control how Application Scope Management handles scopes that the application requests in the future:

- When selected, future scopes are allowed without an administrator updating the configuration. Only scopes that you disable remain blocked.
- When cleared, future scopes are disabled until an administrator allows them.

For the Datadog Mobile App, required scopes are always allowed and cannot be disabled.

1. On the {{< ui >}}Mobile and Third-Party Access{{< /ui >}} page, click an application to open its detail view.

2. Select the {{< ui >}}Scopes{{< /ui >}} tab and use the {{< ui >}}Allowed{{< /ui >}} checkbox for each scope to control whether to grant the application that scope.

3. Click {{< ui >}}Enable{{< /ui >}} to save the scope configuration.
3. Select or clear {{< ui >}}Automatically allow new scopes{{< /ui >}} to choose how to handle future scopes.

4. Click {{< ui >}}Enable{{< /ui >}} or {{< ui >}}Save{{< /ui >}} to save the scope configuration.
