Overview
To access the Enterprise Stack, you either need an Account (used mainly for UI access), an API Key (used for machine access), or a Super Admin. Accounts and API Keys can hold different roles. Roles are simply a set of grouped permissions (e.g., create key, delete service). Therefore, when your Account or API Key has assigned the role with the required permissions to perform the necessary actions, you can operate and use the Enterprise Stack via the Admin Interfaces or the Enterprise APIs.
Types of Access Credentials
- Super Admin - The highest level of access, can perform all operations on the enterprise API and UI out of the box. It doesn't require any role.
- Accounts - Accounts are primarily used to access the user interface (UI). By default, accounts do not have any permissions. To gain permissions, accounts must be assigned specific roles.
- API-Keys: Programmatic access method for interacting with enterprise API. By default, API-Keys do not have any permissions. To gain permissions, API-Keys must be assigned specific roles.
