Administration

Administration is capability-gated, not limited to one role name. Readable Settings entries appear only when the active role has their exact capability. Common splits include settings.read/settings.write, firewall.read/firewall.manage, radar.read/radar.manage, monitor.view for Usage, and audit.read for Audit Log; connections, connectors, users, backup, and demo data have dedicated permissions. A custom role that must operate a split editor needs both its route/read key and mutation key. Without the mutation key, supported sections remain read-only; a mutation key alone does not expose a read-gated route.

Every Settings entry

The Settings sidebar groups its entries into Configuration, Security & access, Tool Preference, Observability, and Miscellaneous. Each entry below is documented on one of the pages above; where a read and a write capability differ, both are listed.

Users, Roles, Groups, and Sign-in & SSO are sub-tabs of Access Control and share its users.manage capability. Durable Work Batches is a background-execution surface rather than a Settings entry.

Changes affect the current tenant/workspace unless a page explicitly describes an Azure connection or external destination. The live role editor is authoritative when a capability name differs from this table; see the permissions reference.
