Platform Status Permissions
This page covers the roles required to view and manage the Platform Status page, including Dataplane restart and Dataplane Diagnostics.
Workspace-Level Only
The Status page is a global platform feature. It is not scoped to individual datastores or teams, so it is controlled exclusively by User Roles. Team permissions do not apply.
User Roles (Workspace-Level)
| Action | Member | Manager | Admin |
|---|---|---|---|
| Access the Status page | |||
| View the Deployment and Components cards | |||
| View the License card | |||
| View the Dataplane Configuration subtab | |||
| Refresh Status Summary | |||
| Copy Status Summary | |||
| Open the Dataplane Diagnostics subtab | |||
| Capture and download a diagnostics report | |||
| Restart Dataplane |
How Permissions Work
To view the Status page, a user needs the Manager or Admin role. Users with the Member role are redirected away from the page.
To manage or inspect the Dataplane, meaning restart it or open its Diagnostics subtab, a user needs the Admin role. Both are gated by the same rule, so a Manager sees neither the Restart button nor the Diagnostics subtab.
Admin Full Access
Users with the Admin role have unrestricted access to every Status page feature.
What Each Role Sees
| ROLE | WHAT THEY SEE |
|---|---|
| Member | Cannot open the Status page. The browser redirects to the Datastores page. |
| Manager | The Deployment, Components, and Dataplane cards, with Refresh and Copy Summary. The License card is not displayed. The Dataplane card shows only its Configuration subtab, with no Restart button. |
| Admin | Everything a Manager sees, plus the Diagnostics subtab on the Dataplane card and the Restart button. |
API Permissions
The Status endpoints do not all match the page's own requirement. The status endpoint is public, so a monitoring probe can read platform health without credentials. Platform info needs at least the Member role, and the diagnostics and restart endpoints require Admin.
| Endpoint | Method | Required Role | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
/ |
GET | Member | Retrieve platform info: version, cloud, engine, and size. |
/status |
GET | Public | Retrieve platform health: database, RabbitMQ, and the Dataplane report. |
/dataplane/diagnostics |
GET | Admin | Capture and return a live Dataplane diagnostics report. |
/admin/restart |
PUT | Admin | Restart the Dataplane. |
Note
GET /api/status is public so the sign-in page can report a platform problem before anyone authenticates. Treat its response as readable by anyone who can reach the deployment. It carries software versions and resource allocation, but no datastore names, credentials, or data.
