Kubepass Roles

Kubepass roles are used to control access to the Kubepass dashboard. The following roles are available:

  • Admin: Users with this role have full access to the dashboard. They can perform all operations like creating SecureApps, managing users, granting roles, etc.
  • User: Users with this role cannot perform any admin operations and have read only access to the dashboard. They can login to the dashboard and view the SecureApps and Bookmarks that they have access to.
