Manage access

ArcGIS Enterprise on Kubernetes provides multiple ways for organizations to manage how their members access and interact with its content. One way is by assigning members specific privileges through custom roles that include administrative privileges, such as the ability to manage an organization's security configuration. These custom roles allow organizations to delegate administrative tasks without having to assign the default administrator role to multiple members.

Only members assigned specific administrative and Publisher role privileges will be able to access the ArcGIS Enterprise Administrator API itself. Further access to resources and operations is restricted based on the endpoints that are associated with, or required by, their role's privileges.

Privilege-based access

Members are only able to access some endpoints in the ArcGIS Enterprise Admin API based on the privileges assigned to their role. Resources and operations that are not accessible to members are inaccessible through the UI or return errors if they are accessed through URL paths.

The following table shows which administrative privileges are authorized to access the ArcGIS Enterprise Admin API that can be assigned to users:

Administrative privilege categoryPrivilege name

Members

Manage licenses

Groups

Links to organization-specific group

Content

  • Update
  • Delete

Portal Settings

  • Security and Infrastructure
  • Servers
  • Organization website

In addition to the administrative privileges listed above, users assigned the Publisher default role will also be able to access the ArcGIS Enterprise Admin API.

Endpoint access

The following sections outline the access provided to each administrative privilege, as well as which endpoints are available to users assigned the Publisher role. Users assigned the default administrator role have access to every endpoint in the ArcGIS Enterprise Admin API. Endpoints that are only accessible to those assigned the default administrator role are specified below.
