Role-based Access Control (RBAC)
Role-based Access Control (RBAC)
Role-based access control allows you to grant different levels of access to different users within an organization. There are three roles:
- Admin - can view and manage all data, configuration and settings for the organization.
- Member - can view monitored data, and manage monitoring configuration.
- Viewer - can view monitored data and monitoring configuration.
A user can have different roles in different organizations.
Role-based access control is available to Enterprise accounts only. If you would like to enable the feature, simply reach out to us via Slack or contact us.
Roles
Admin
Admins are users with full access to the data, configuration and settings for the organization. They are responsible for:
- managing user membership and roles
- onboarding new projects and creating the API access tokens for their integration
- managing organization-level notification settings
Member
Members are typically users with day-to-day responsibility for monitoring projects. They are able to create and edit monitors and use all of the visualization capabilities of the platform.
Members cannot create projects or API access tokens. To onboard a new project, a Member will need to work with an Admin.
Viewer
Viewers can use all of the visualization capabilities of the platform, but they cannot setup monitors or change any settings for the organization.
