Roles and Users

The TellusR administration interface provides role-based access to its widgets, while the API has two distinct access levels. This section outlines dashboard roles, default users, API access levels, and password reset instructions.

User Roles in the TellusR Administration Interface

TellusR dashboard users are assigned one of two roles:

1. Admin User
   • Can access the “Admin” menu in the TellusR administration interface, which includes advanced setup options.
2. Basic User
   • Basic users has limited access to the TellusR administration interface.

Default users

When TellusR is installed, two default users are created for dashboard access, both with the same initial password:

1. admin
   • with admin role
2. tellusr
   • with basic role

Reset password

To reset a password for a dashboard user:

• Log in to the TellusR dashboard.
• Click on the avatar in the top-right corner.
• Select Change Password.

API Access Levels

TellusR’s API does not use the same role-based system as the dashboard. Instead, it has two predefined users with different access levels:

Admin API User (admin) Has access to admin operations in the API, such as managing semantic indexing. Required for performing administrative API tasks.

General API User (tellusr) Has access to general API operations, such as managing projects, uploading documents, and querying data. Cannot perform admin-level API actions.
