Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-15776:
------------------------------------
I updated the PR, added a CHANGES and removed draft status. It is not terribly
useful as-is, but it is a framework to start other UI-only PRs that will start
hiding buttons and menus, greying out things etc.
> Make Admin UI play well with Authorization

> Admin UI does not really know about what the current logged in user should
> have access to and not, and it just throws some error messages if you attempt
> to do stuff you are not authorized to. The upcoming SOLR-11623 will also add
> further permissions to some APIs that are commonly used from admin UI.
> I propose that we do the following:
> * Add to /admin/info/system a list of predefined permissions that the
> logged-in user has assigned (now we only list the roles)
> * Admin UI will always require permissions {{{}config-read{}}},
> {{core-read}} and {{{}coll-read{}}}. If either the /admin/info/system call
> fails or the three permissions are not present, the Admin UI shows a message
> "You do not have sufficient permissions to use the Admin UI"
> See the attached matrix ([or google
> spreadsheet|https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1s2xokDxw9IkXr7ZA5n06RPDj6EwvpbsZ7zUeKpvRC3Q/edit?usp=sharing])
> of permissions required for each section of the Admin UI. Use this matrix to
> restrict access to various Admin UI screens or buttons, depending on user's
> permissions:
> * Cloud/Tree/Graph: Disable if not {{zk-read}}
> * Schema-designer: Stop probing with ajax call, check permission list instead
> * Documents tab: Disable the whole tab or only the "Submit document" button
> if not {{update}} permission
> * Query/Stream/SQL/Schema: Disable tabs or buttons if not {{read}} permission
> * Schema: Disable buttons if not {{schema-edit}} permission
> * Core overview: Disable if not {{health}} and {{read}} permissions
> * Ping: Disable if not {{health}} permission
> * Plugin/Stats & Segments-info: Disable if not {{metrics-read}} permission
> [~thelabdude] ping
