    Topic:
    Delegated admin of role membership
    Body:

    As a pipeline group administrator, I can add users and assign permissions to pipelines in my group, but I can not add users to groups associated with my pipelines.  As the number of users and pipelines in my group grows, this becomes cumbersome.

    Being a delegated role administrator to mange role membership for specific groups would make managing the users of my pipeline group easier.

       Actually, now that I think about it, an alterative solution to the problem would be roles that are scoped to a pipeline group, and which can be administered by the group administrator(s).

      Hey Steve,

       

      Just to be clear, you want to be able to add users into the system who can access only a given pipeline groups is it? And be able to create Roles that are scoped only within a pipeline group. Did I get this correctly?

       

      We have this identified under the theme of "Go server for an entire organization" in our backlog. We will be implementing in one of the future releases.

       

      Thanks for reporting this.

      What I want is that as a pipeline administrator I should be able to:

      1. Administer role membership for roles associated with my pipeline(s), instead of only being able to authorize access at the individual user level (a must-have)
      2. Create roles specifically for my pipeline(s), and manage their membership (a nice-to-have).

      And all of the above without having to be a Go system administrator.

      I think that covers it.

      Thanks!

      Got it. Thanks for clearing this up. We will definitely look into this.
