Permissions
Who can see each dashboard widget, and which widget actions require specific permissions
2 minute read
If the CloudBolt Admin role is enabled, CloudBolt Admins have the same dashboard access as Super Admins, except for approving orders, the Blueprints and Recent Activity scope options, and See All History. See Global roles.
Widget visibility
Most dashboard widgets are visible to all users, and the content within each widget is limited to what you have permission to see. A few widgets are restricted by role. Users without the required role don’t see these widgets in the Manage Displayed Widgets dialog.

|---|---|
| Infrastructure Providers | Super Admin |
