Console Overview

The Console is the central administration area for all MinuteView configuration. If a setting is not user‑specific or client‑side, it is managed here.

---

Purpose

• Provide a single place to configure and maintain all global MinuteView options.
• Manage system objects such as service accounts, roles, integrations, logs, and module settings.
• Control who can access administrative functions.

---

Access on First Install

• After a fresh installation, only the MVAdmin account can sign in to the Console.
• Use MVAdmin to bootstrap your environment: create additional users, define roles, and grant Console access to others.

---

Granting Access to Others

1. Sign in as MVAdmin.
2. Navigate to Users to create user accounts (or import/sync if applicable).
3. Navigate to Roles/Permissions and create roles that include Console access permissions.
4. Assign roles to users who should administer MinuteView.

When to Use the Console

Use the Console whenever you need to:

• Adjust Global Settings (e.g., authentication method, log retention, service accounts).
• Configure Integrations (Autodesk Vault, Elasticsearch, AI providers, etc.).
• Manage Automations Engine endpoints or legacy API settings.
• Review Job History and debug logs.
• Maintain Service Accounts, security settings, and other system resources.

If you are unsure where a configuration lives, start by checking the Console.

Not Covered by the Console

• Per-user preferences (UI themes, personal saved searches, etc.).
• Client-side/browser-only settings specific to an individual workstation or session.

---

Next Steps

• Proceed to Global Settings to configure foundational options.
• Review Service Accounts before enabling Mesh or AI features.
