Controlling User Access

The Admin Level setting provides the user with different privileges. PlaidCloud provides three levels of access:

• No Admin Access
• Management Admin Access
• Monitoring Admin Access

No Admin Access provides no administrative access but allows the user to utilize all other permission based access.

Management Admin Access provides full permission based access, as well as the following:

• List virtual hosts to which they can log in
• View all queues, exchanges, and bindings in “their” virtual hosts
• View and close their own channels and connections
• View “global” statistics covering all their virtual hosts, including activity by other users

Monitoring Admin Access provides everything “Management Admin Access” provides, as well as the following:

• List all virtual hosts, including ones they could not log into via AMQP
• View other users’ connections and channels
• View node-level data such as memory use and clustering
• View truly global statistics for all virtual hosts
