Enabling admin API support

By default, admin API URL support is disabled Cloudera Data Visualization. A platform administrator can enable this support, at the level of individual data types, through site-specific settings.

  1. Open Site Settings.
  2. Scroll to Advanced Settings at the bottom of the left navigation.
  3. To enable specific data types, add them to the Advanced Site Settings text box.
    ADMIN_API_URL_LIST
    Can be set to a wildcard (*) to enable all endpoints or to a specific list of endpoints you want to show.
    ADMIN_API_DEMO_LIST
    • If not set, no admin API endpoints are shown, only non-admin API endpoints.
    • If set to a specific list, only those Admin API endpoints are displayed.
    • If set to a wildcard (*), all admin API endpoints are shown.

    For example:

    OptionDescription
    ADMIN_API_URL_LIST = ['visuals', 'datasets'] Add the data types to enable visuals and datasets.
    ADMIN_API_URL_LIST = ['visuals', 'datasets', 'connections', 'users', 'groups','roles', 'segments', 'filterassociations'] To enable all data type support, list them all in the text box.
    ADMIN_API_URL_LIST = ['*'] Use the wildcard to specify all options.
  4. Click SAVE.
  5. Restart the Cloudera Data Visualization application.
