User Accounts

User roles

Admin

Admins have access to additional links in the hub, such as backups, SMTP settings, etc.

The first user created is automatically set to admin and has a PocketBase superuser account with the same email and password.

PocketBase superusers are separate from Beszel user roles

Changing a user's role to admin does not create a PocketBase superuser account. If you want to allow them to access the PocketBase admin panel, you must create a superuser account manually.

User

Users can create their own systems and alerts. Links to PocketBase settings are not shown in the hub.

Read only

Read-only users cannot create systems but can view any system shared with them by an admin and create alerts.

Reset password

For resetting your password you can use the superusers command. Upsert will reset your password or create a new superuser if an existing one with your email doesn't exist.

Once you are in PocketBase you can change user passwords in the users table.
