Problem:
I expected to have all permissions at the "Access-control" Tab. Unfortunately it is not like this. As I know by today there are also permissions to be set at the "Data>Connectivity" Tab and I don't know where else there are. This makes me feel uncomfortable, as this are "hidden, intransparent permissions" for someone new at the product.
This is a situation making me feel uncomfortable, because to set this permissions at least once I need the cpadmin user. And this is a problem, because I want to eliminate the login screen for cpadmin. We only want a saml-login and nothing else. Unfortunately if a problem occurs, I then no longer can login as cpadmin, because there is no login-screen. I have to go to a workmate with permission to execute oc commands to enable the login page again.
The situation causes a support ticket where the main problem was the expectation didn't fit to reality. Also it was not easy for the support to understand where the problem was and that it wa not a bug. So solving it would help both sides.
This situation has multiple problems, I will make multiple RFEs for them.
RFE:
All Permissions of the product should be consolidated on the "Access-Control" Tab to make the product consitent. No permissions not in "Access-Control" !!!

Thanks for the information.
Can you please tell me a timeframe? I stumble ever week at least one time over the fact, that not all permissions are consolidated in the access-controll. This is really painful. Of course there are not unlimited possibilities where you can stumple and in some point in the future I hopefully know all of them. Unfortunately this will cost me a lot of time, because every time I stumbel over this. I have to search, read in the documentation and in the worst case open a ticket for it. All of this is time consuming.
Hi Peter. Thank you for submitting this request. This will be placed in our future backlog until additional clients request this feature as this is a one-off request and difficult to achieve at this point. The issue is that we have second-level permissions for areas like .data and connectivity because relying on a single administrator to assign and manage all access would be both challenging and impractical.
