Manage access

ArcGIS Enterprise provides multiple methods for organizations to manage how their members access and interact with its content. One method is to assign members specific privileges through custom roles that include administrative privileges, such as managing an organization's security configuration. These custom roles allow organizations to delegate administrative tasks without assigning the default administrator role to multiple members.

The security privilege model is also used by the ArcGIS Server Administration REST API. Starting at 10.8.1, only members assigned specific administrative privileges can access the REST API. Access to other resources and operations is restricted based on the endpoints that are associated with, or required by, their role's privileges.

Nota:

Members who are assigned the default administrator role continue to have access to the full Server Administration API.

Privilege-based access

Members can only access certain endpoints in the ArcGIS Server Administration API based on the privileges assigned to their role.

The following tables list the privileges that are authorized to access the ArcGIS Server Admin REST API:

Administrative privilege categoryPrivileges

Update | Delete

Portal Settings

Security and infrastructure | Servers | Organization webhooks

Geoprocessing

Precaución:

Users assigned the Geoprocessing privilege must add the Publish server-based layers privilege to their custom role.

General privilege categoryPrivileges

Feature layer

In addition to the privileges listed above, users assigned the Publisher default role can also access specific endpoints in the ArcGIS Server Admin API.

To learn more about these privileges, and the access they provide in an organization, see User types, roles, and privileges.

Endpoint access

Precaución:

This topic outlines the required privileges for ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2 . To see the privileges that apply to the specific ArcGIS Enterprise version you are using, see the ArcGIS Server Admin API installed help.

The following sections list the privileges necessary to access each endpoint in the ArcGIS Server Administration API.

Nota:

Users assigned the default administrator role have access to every endpoint in the Server Administration API. Endpoints that are accessible only to those assigned the default administrator role are specified below.
