Access requirements

Required privileges

The Portal Administrator API requires privilege-based access. An administrator must be assigned a specific user privilege, or role, to access any given endpoint. Listed below are the user privileges or roles an administrator can be assigned that provides access to this endpoint. If multiple privileges are listed, only one needs to be assigned to gain access.


Tokens

This API requires token-based authentication. A token is automatically generated for administrators who sign in to the Portal Administrator API directory's HTML interface. Tokens generated in this way are stored for the entirety of the session.

Those accessing the API directory outside of the HTML interface will need to acquire a session token from the generateToken operation in the Portal Directory API. For security reasons, all POST requests made to the Portal Administrator API must include a token in the request body.

ExecuteNotebooksUserLimit

The maximum number of active scheduled notebook tasks that can be owned by an individual user. By default, a user can only own 20 active notebooks tasks. When this limit is reached, the user will not be able to create a new notebook task until one of the notebook tasks change its status from Active to Complete, Failed, or Inactive.

When this limit is met, the task is changed from its active state, and the task owner must identify and rectify the issue before switching the task's access back to Active.

TaskRunHistoryCount

The total number of runs that are reported and maintained for a scheduled task. By default, only the 30 most recent runs will be maintained. Any tasks that are not within the most recent 30 runs will be permanetly deleted. The number of runs can be increased to a total of 50 runs per scheduled task.
