Like any enterprise product, Devtron supports fine grained access control to the resources based on:
Type of action allowed on Devtron resources (Create Vs View)
Sensitivity of the data (Editing image Vs Editing memory)
Access can be added to the User either directly or via Permission groups.
Devtron supports the following levels of access:
View only: User with View only
access has the least privilege. This user can only view combination of environments, applications and helm charts on which access has been granted to the user. This user cannot view sensitive data like secrets used in applications or charts.
Build and Deploy: In addition to View only
access, user with Build and deploy
permission can build and deploy the image of the permitted applications and helm charts to the permitted environments.
Admin: User with Admin
access can create, edit, delete and view permitted applications in the permitted projects.
Manager: User with Manager
access can do everything that an Admin
type user can do, in addition, they can also give and revoke access of users for the applications and environments of which they are Manager
.
Super Admin: User with Super admin
privilege has unrestricted access to all Devtron resources. Super admin can create, modify, delete and view any Devtron resource without any restriction; its like Superman without the weakness of Kryptonite. Super Admin can also add and delete user access across any Devtron resource, add delete git repository credentials, container registry credentials, cluster and environment.
