Abstract
A system, method, and computer-readable media for establishing a framework for managing application permissions in a group-based communication system. Upon receipt, from an application in a group-based communication system, of an attempt to access a target internet domain, an application manifest associated with the application is accessed. The manifest includes a list of approved internet domains previously approved by an administrator of the group-based communication system which the application may access. Following access of the manifest, it is determined whether the target internet domain is included in the list of approved internet domains. If the target internet domain is included in the list of approved internet domains, the application is allowed to access the target internet domain. If the target internet domain is not included in the list of one or more approved internet domains, access to the domain by the application is denied.
