Teams and shared access ​

Team management is available in the Web edition when Kubron is configured with PostgreSQL. It is not part of the Desktop edition or the Web single-user file-storage mode.

Organization → team → cluster ​

Kubron uses a simple ownership model:

  • an organization contains teams;
  • users are members of one or more teams;
  • each cluster belongs to exactly one team;
  • a user's role is assigned separately in each team.

A team member can see and operate only the clusters owned by teams they belong to. An organization administrator can manage users and teams, but does not automatically gain access to cluster data without team membership.

Manage teams ​

Organization administrators can create, rename and delete teams, manage organization users, and assign team membership. Team administrators can manage their team's members and clusters.

A team administrator can:

  • add a cluster to the team;
  • update its connection and display settings;
  • manage membership and team roles, subject to the organization-level rules.

A team cannot be deleted while it still owns clusters. Cluster transfers are explicit administrative operations.

Roles within a team ​

Kubron has three built-in roles:

RoleAccess
adminFull access within the team, including team membership, cluster management and privileged operations
operatorRead access, Secret values and safe workload operations such as scale, restart and rollback
userRead-only access; no Secret values or privileged operations

The exact permissions are enforced by the backend, not just by hiding controls in the interface. Kubernetes RBAC still applies: a Kubron permission does not grant a Kubernetes API permission that the cluster credentials do not have.

Isolation ​

The application checks team membership for each cluster-scoped operation. A cluster belonging to another team is not exposed in lists or by guessing its identifier. Helm repositories, OCI credentials and Helm operation history are also stored per team in PostgreSQL.
