Role-Based Access Controls
How to set up user and admin roles in Unblocked
Unblocked offers Role-Based Access Controls to help you better manage who can modify the data sources your team has connected with Unblocked.
When Roles-based Access Controls are enabled, only admins will be able to configure data sources and change team settings for your team.
Non-admins will see a screen that lists administrators they can contact with their change requests.
Setting up Roles
To enable Role-Based Access Controls, first navigate to the Settings section of the Unblocked web app.
Under Team Settings select Security.
On this page you’ll see an option to turn on Role-Based Access Controls.
Toggle the switch to turn on Role-Based Access Controls. A confirmation dialog will appear to ensure you want to enable this setting. If you wish to disable Role-Based Access Controls in the future, you can do so by returning to this page and toggling the switch off.
Changing Roles
By default, the current user who enables Role-Based Access Controls will be the first admin for your team. This user will be able to add other admins to your team.
To add a new admin, navigate to the Settings section of the Unblocked web app. Under Team Settings select Members.
Here you’ll see a list of all the users who have access to your Unblocked team.
Choose between Admin
and Member
roles for each team member.
If your team does not have Role-Based Access Controls enabled, any user can modify the data source configured with Unblocked, including adding and removing repos, changing connections to Confluence and Google Drive, and updating Slack channels.
