Administration Console

Q: How do I access the Administration Console?

The Administration Console allows Tower instance administrators to interact with all users and organizations registered with the platform. Administrators must be identified in your Tower instance configuration files prior to instantiation of the application.

1. Create a TOWER_ROOT_USERS environment variable (e.g. via tower.env).
2. Populate the variable with a sequence of comma-delimited email addresses (no spaces).
   Example: TOWER_ROOT_USERS=foo@foo.com,bar@bar.com
3. If using a Tower version earlier than 21.12:
   1. Add the following configuration to tower.yml:

   2. tower:
        admin:
          root-users: '${TOWER_ROOT_USERS:[]}'

      
      

4. Depending on your deployment setup, it also required to apply the configuration above to both the cron and backend services.
5. Restart the application.
6. The console will now be available via your Profile drop-down menu.
