How it works
When an org or department admin turns on the Show data from my admin access toggle on a resource listing (for example, Data Sources), the listing switches from showing only their own resources to additionally showing resources owned by other members that they can reach solely through their administrative role. Because viewing other members’ resources is a sensitive, auditable action:- An acknowledgement dialog appears every time you turn the toggle on. There is no “remember my choice”.
- Only after you click I understand, continue does the admin listing load.
- Each time the admin listing is fetched, the action is recorded in the Audit Log, including which members or departments you chose to view.
- Turning the toggle back off returns you to your normal, private listing and clears any owner filter you had selected.
Narrowing what you see — the owner filter
While the admin view is on, an owner filter appears so you can focus on specific people or departments instead of browsing everyone at once:- Expand one or more departments to view their members’ resources.
- Tick individual member checkboxes to narrow further.
- Leave all unchecked to see all members’ resources in the admin view.
