Hi Wenjuan,

Sorry it took me so long to answer due to the Boston Summit.

After making some more checks in order to make it sure, the results are the following:

1.       The context that we use has 2 properties regarding admin (is_admin, is_admin_project).

2.       The is_admin property regards whether the user that has done the inquiry is the admin or not. So the only way it is True is if the user is admin.

3.       The is_admin_project I thought will represent the tenant of the user, but from all of the user and tenants that I have used, it laways returned me True.

4.       Due to that I have decided to use the is_admin property in the context to indicate whether the user can see all-tenants or not.

5.       This is not a perfect solution because also users such as nova/cinder/all project names seems to be able to see the admin tab. In our case what will happen is that although in the UI we have the admin tab for those users, the data we will show in the vitrage tab is not of all the tenants but this specific tenant.

Hi Wenjuan,

This is a good question, I need to check it a bit more thoroughly.

It’s just that at the moment we are preparing for the Boston Openstack Summit and thus it will take me a bit more time to answer that.

Sorry for the delay.

Alexey ☺

Hi all,

I'm a little confused about the "is_amdin" in ctx.

From the hook(https://github.com/openstack/vitrage/blob/master/vitrage/api/hooks.py#L73), "is_admin" means admin user,.

But we define the macro as "admin project"( https://github.com/openstack/vitrage/blob/master/vitrage/api_handler/apis/base.py#L94 ). But in my opinion,  it should be the admin role. Correct me if i'm wrong :).



BR,

dwj
