# Get skipped apps

> Returns the apps that Pulse skips on every Mac in this Workspace, as bundle ID prefixes. Pulse also always skips its built-in list of password managers, banking apps, and health apps.

## Access

This operation needs a Parable token. An MCP token cannot call it. See [Authentication](/getting-started/authentication.md) for the kinds of token.

Your roles must grant `tenant.connectors.taps.view`.

## Errors

* `HTTP 403`: You cannot view Pulse settings in this Workspace. Select a Workspace where you can view connector taps.
