Configuring page access

Define which groups can access each view in the IBM® Intelligent Operations Center user interface, such as the Operations view.

Before you begin

As a platform administrator, configure the user groups in the User Management view. For more information, see Creating user groups.

About this task

If there is a very large number of pages in your solution, the Page Access view might be very slow to open, and very slow to respond if it does open. If this happens, use the provided REST services to configure page access privileges. For more information, see Page Access view is slow to open for large numbers of pages.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation menu, click Administration > Configuration Tools > Page Access. A tab is displayed for each view in the solution.
  2. For each view, choose the groups that can access the view, and then save your settings.

What to do next

To verify the groups that are authorized to access a view, request the page that corresponds to the view from the api theme service and review the authorizations entry. For example, to review the groups that are authorized to access the Operations view, send the following request:
/ibm/ioc/api/theme-service/pages/ioc.Operations
The authorizations entry contains a list of the groups that are authorized to access the Operations view, as shown in the following example:
"authorizations": ["SolutionAdmins", "Operators", "SystemAdmins"],
