Beginning with OpenShift 4,19, the web console UI has changed. The Administrative/Developer perspective switching menu which used to be on the top-left corner has been removed. Instead, a single unified view is now offered.
New Web Console
Your new Web console would look something like this:
Web Console Changes
| Menu |
Developer UI (old) |
Unified UI (new) |
| Software Catalog |
'Developer' Perspective > +Add |
This option is gone.
The catalog for creating applications can be seen under 'Ecosystem' > 'Software Catalog'.
|
| Topology |
'Developer' Perspective >Topology |
Topology can be viewed under 'Workloads' > 'Topology'. |
| Project |
'Developer' Perspective > Project |
Your projects can be viewed under 'Home' > 'Projects'. |
| Project Access |
'Developer' Perspective > Project> Project Access |
There is no direct 'Project Access' menu. Instead, use the command line interface (CLI).
The existing project admin will be able to add/edit access.
To add a user:
oc adm policy add-role-to-user <role> <user> -n <projectname>
- Replace <role> with the desired role (admin, edit, or view).
- Replace <user> with the user's onyen.
- Replace <projectname> with the name of the project.
To verify user access:
oc get rolebindings -n <projectname>
