Disabling certain features/pages

[cmacsithigh]

Hi there,

We would like to understand if you can hide certain pages regardless of RBAC permissions

Examples:

• Hide the gateway (beta) section for all users
• We don't use VPA and would like to hide them

Is this possible?

It's possible with a plugin, you can disable routes and sidebar entries

Looks good ,how does one do this for a in-cluster deployment? Do you have any examples?

[sniok]

You could package a plugin into a docker image and use it as an initContainer in headlamp deployment, there's a guide here https://headlamp.dev/blog/2022/10/20/best-practices-for-deploying-headlamp-with-plugins

Brilliant thank you!

This works perfectly. thank you.

Small follow up question, is there a way for us to disable certain buttons? most notably the Create button on the bottom left?

[sniok]

there's currently no way to disable the create button, unfortunately
