Onboarding
meshStack enables self-service onboarding for your internal customers. Operators can use the following options to customize the experience.
Workspace Registration
Multiple options are available to control how meshWorkspaces can sign up to meshStack in self-service. meshStack can be configured to suit your organization's unique demands for sign up.
The following configuration options are available at mesh.panel.environment.mesh.registration
:
let Registration =
{-
requirePayment:
Determines if the workspace registration wizard will collect a default "Cost Center" payment method.
Disabling this will cause new meshWorkspaces to be registered without a payment method.
This is useful if the meshStack implementation requires users to register payment methods via an external
process (e.g. via API createLimitedPaymentMethod).
See ui.costCenter for customizing the default cost center payment method.
-}
{ requirePayment : Bool }
let example = { requirePayment = True } : Registration
Additional Approval Flows
Additional configuration option control backend behavior in meshfed.web.register
as follows:
{ {- Allow sign up only if valid payment information was provided during registration -}
, requirePayment : Optional Bool
}
Additional remarks and configuration links:
requirePayment
must be consistently configured betweenpanel
andmeshfed
configuration settings. The configuration model validates this.
Default Quotas
meshStack assigns a default quota to newly registered meshWorkspaces (see section above). Platform Operators can configure this default quota via meshfed.web.customer.defaultQuota
:
{ {- the number of allowed meshProjects per meshWorkspace -}
meshProjects : Natural
}
The default only applies to newly registered meshWorkspaces. meshPartners can change the individual quotas for managed meshWorkspaces at any time using the administration area.
Workspace User Invitations
When a user is invited to a workspace there are several configurations to customize this invitation flow which is explained below.
The following configuration options are available at mesh.web.user.rolerequest
:
let UserRoleRequest =
{-
Configure settings related to role-requests for users. This includes
functionality like adding new users to a meshWorkspace.
min-approval-count:
The minimum number of approvals needed before a requested role binding is granted and made effective.
Using 2 or higher allows implementation of a 4-eyes principle and similar approval workflows.
set-email-as-euid:
When the role request is for a new meshUser, set the email address (either entered by the inviting
person or retrieved from identity lookup) as the new meshUser's euid.
The effect of this setting may be overridden, as IdentityLookup configuration takes precedence over
this.
restrict-customer-admin-role-assignment:
When enabled, prevents self-service assignment of the Workspace Manager role via meshPanel.
In this case, only meshObject API (or meshStack's Identity Connector) can be used for creating these role
bindings. This is useful when an external system is the source of truth regarding
Workspace Manager role assignments.
Also, partner users using the "add myself" functionality in the admin area will be restricted to granting
themselves 'Workspace Member' roles instead of 'Workspace Manager'.
