API: API principles should explain how/who gets access

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      It should be made more clear on https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/core/api/ how / who gets access to the API.

      Primary points to cover:

      1) Group-level users only get access to the Public API if it's enabled at the group level since manually-created groups have it disabled by default (enabling is possible via the UI, or if the group was enabled via the API then enabled by default)

      and

      2) Global-level users have access to the API resources by default, even if the Public API hasn't been enabled at the group level for the group.
      <-- This should then link to https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/reference/configuration/#mms.publicApi.ignoreEnabledForGlobalRoles to explain that this setting can be changed in the Ops Manager config file.
