Resource Admin User Experience

When users log in to Resource Admin, they can view the pages and controls that their roles permit access to. (See Granting Access to Resource Admin for a list of these roles and the access they grant.) For example, the image below shows pages and controls viewable to a user with full access to the IAM Shop.

Resource Admin User Interface for Users with Full Access

Resource Admin Controls

Resource Admin provides a comprehensive range of controls designed to empower resource owners and administrators with efficient resource management capabilities. These controls encompass various functionalities, allowing delegated users to oversee and govern resources effectively. It is important to note that the visibility of these controls may vary among users, depending on their assigned roles for the application. This ensures that each user is presented with a tailored view, displaying only the controls relevant to their specific responsibilities and permissions. By customizing the visibility of controls based on user roles, Resource Admin ensures a streamlined and personalized experience for administrators, enabling them to focus on the tasks and operations that are essential to their roles. Whether you are a system administrator, a team lead, or a specialized resource manager, Resource Admin equips you with the appropriate tools and access, optimizing your productivity and facilitating efficient resource management within your organization.
