Admin Guide

Administrators have full access to all data assets and can perform all create, edit, and delete operations across the platform. Administrators can manage the following:
  • Roles and Policies — define and enforce access controls across the organization.
  • Services and Notifications — configure platform services and set up notification rules.
  • Custom Properties and Data Insights — extend data models and monitor data health.
  • Users and Teams — add individual users or create teams to streamline onboarding.
An organization can have multiple Administrators, allowing each to manage specific teams and departments independently. Get started with OpenMetadata with just three quick and easy steps.
