User Roles

Authentication

1Gateway provides a simple and flexible way to manage user access and roles.
Authentication and authorization are centrally controlled, ensuring secure and consistent access across the platform.

User Roles

Admin

Has full control of 1Gateway. Admins can:

  • Configure integrations and system settings
  • Manage authentication and security options
  • Add, edit, or remove users
  • Assign or modify roles
  • Perform all actions in the GUI

Read-Only User

Can log in and view all data in the GUI but cannot make configuration changes.
Ideal for monitoring or auditing activities.

Webhook User

Used for integrations that send data into 1Gateway without requiring GUI access.
Webhook users can push messages to endpoints but cannot view or modify configurations.


Single Sign-On (SSO)

1Gateway supports Single Sign-On (SSO) through OAuth2-based authentication.
When SSO is enabled, users can log in with their existing organizational credentials (for example, through Azure AD, Okta, or Keycloak) instead of maintaining separate 1Gateway usernames and passwords.

Once authenticated, access within 1Gateway is determined by the assigned user role.
Role management remains local to 1Gateway, allowing administrators to control what each authenticated user can do within the system.

note

Configuration details for enabling SSO are provided in the System Authentication documentation.
