Identity and access

Audience: operator · Profile: both · Read this when: you are deciding who and what may use the dashboard, how it keeps credentials, or how you would prove what happened.

Who may do what in the dashboard, how machines get in, where its secrets live, and the record of all of it.

Page Read it when
Permissions you are deciding what a user may see or do, and especially before ticking "Full access", or handing a POV to a customer stakeholder
Service Accounts something that is not a person (a CI job, an MCP agent, a script) needs to call the API, and you would otherwise hand it a PAT
Secrets Management you are deciding where to store cloud credentials, and how to evolve that over time
Audit Log you need to show who did what, or to satisfy yourself that the record has not been edited
