Using the webapp / Admin
Verified against Flow 5.0.0-beta.39
Admin is the platform's administration page: every setting, every workspace and user, global parameters and tokens, the task catalogue, and the audit trail. This page is for platform admins and operators. Deployment configuration, such as properties and environment variables, is on the operator pages: see Configuring.
The Admin link sits at the bottom of the side nav for users whose type is admin or operator. An operator sees the settings read-only.
Each tab appears when you hold the permission it reads. Four also need a feature on.
| Tab | Holds | Also needs |
|---|---|---|
| Settings | The platform settings, in nine groups | — |
| Workspaces | Every workspace | Settings › Features › Workspace Management on |
| Users | Everyone who has signed in | Settings › Features › User Management on |
| Parameters | Global parameters | Settings › Features › Global Parameters on |
| Tokens | Global machine tokens | Flow running with security on |
| Tasks | The global task catalogue | — |
| Audit | The audit trail | — |

The groups are listed on the left. Each value is described in a tooltip beside its label. Change values, then select Save, or Discard to drop the changes. A secured field shows Set when it holds a value: type over it to replace it, or select Clear.

Some settings that need more than a sentence:
DESTRUCTIVE (deletes only), WRITE (every change) or ALL (adds sensitive reads and exports). Any other text reads as WRITE.The Authentication and Default Image Path settings are usually set at install time. See Sign-in and the first admin and Set the task image. The quota defaults are explained on Quotas.
Every workspace, with its users, workflows and status. Select a row to open its Manage workspace page. Create Workspace asks for a Display Name; Flow turns it into the workspace's unique identifier. There's no delete here: an owner deletes a workspace from Manage workspace › Settings.
Everyone who has signed in, with their Role (Admin, Operator or User), Status and Last sign-in. There's no invite: people join by signing in, or when someone adds their email to a workspace.
Select a user to see their workspaces, labels and details. Change role sets their platform role to Admin or User. See Sign-in and the first admin for how the first admin is made, and how an identity provider can decide admins.
Global parameters, which every workspace can read as $(global.params.<name>). A workspace parameter of the same name wins. See Parameters.
Global machine tokens, for services, scripts, AI agents and dispatchers.
See Machine tokens for tokens declared in configuration, the bootstrap token and rotation.
The global task catalogue, in the same Task Manager screens a workspace uses. A verified task can be edited only while Settings › Tasks › Enable Verified Tasks to be edited is on. See Tasks.
A read-only record of who did what. The tiles count Events, Success, Failed and Denied for the period, 30 days by default. Filter by actor, outcome, action, level and date, and expand a row to see the event as JSON.
Deleting a workspace, parameter, workflow, schedule, artifact or run, and revoking a token, are recorded at the DESTRUCTIVE level. Every other change is WRITE. A change to a secret names the secret, never its value. With Settings › Audit › Enabled off, the page shows Audit capture is off, and nothing new is recorded.
