Admin API

The Flagship UI uses the Admin API to do the following types of things: - Login / Authentication - Managing projects - Managing context fields - Managing feature flags - Managing users - Reading/writing audit logs - etc.

---

Infrastructure

The Admin API is written in Python 3.12 and runs on FastAPI.

---

Dependencies

The only external dependencies for the Admin API is Redis Cluster and MySQL. Redis Cluser stores cached data related to projects and feature flags. MySQL stores everything else.

---

Authentication

Authentication is done via JWT cookies assigned at login.

---

Authorization

All endpoints have the necessary role-based permissions checks. User roles are described on the Users page.

---
