Iotnode access rights

Iotnodes can be shared with other users using access control.
Access can be given to either a user or a user group.
Currently there are 4 access rights:

  • Read Enables the user or user group to see the entire iotnode.
    Additionally the right means you can create a channel to listen to updates for the iotnode.

  • Write Gives the ability to change the iotnode's contents such as name and description.
    Enables downlink where supported.

  • Admin The admin right gives full control over the iotnode and includes all other rights.

  • Peek Shares access to a resource without seeing it in the device list. Can be useful when you want to share the possbility to add devices through a specific connector.

Iotnode access rights can be set via the REST API.
For details on which exact requests and how they work, please refer to our Swagger.

Default access rights​

When creating an iotnode, the user that creates the iotnode automatically gets read, write and admin access.
