Role Based Access Control

Role Based Access Control allows you to assign roles to individual users in COSMOS. By default, Enterprise Edition ships with 3 built-in roles: viewer, operator, and admin. These roles are mapped to the following COSMOS permissions.

Permission Description Viewer Operator Admin
cmd Send commands   x  
cmd_raw Send raw commands   x  
cmd_info View command info x x x
tlm View telemetry x x x
tlm_set Set telemetry   x  
script_view View scripts x x x
script_edit Edit scripts   x x
script_run Run scripts   x  
system Get cmd/tlm counts, interface/router info, targets, screens, tables. Everything that doesn’t explicitly belong to another permission. x x x
system_set Connect and disconnect interfaces and routers x x x
admin Upload, install and delete plugins and gems. Execute arbitrary Redis commands. Change Admin settings.     x

Note that these roles and permissions are all scoped to the current Scope. There is also a special admin role scoped to ALLSCOPES which means it can delete scopes, plugins, and gems across all scopes.
