I’ve got a switch input Pi & a relay output Pi, both with 3G USB modems (so the Pi IP address is NATd by the telco). I want the switch input Pi to control the relay O/P Pi with graphing of the on/off transitions on a website my customer can access to see the graphs & force the output Pi either on or off (ie over ride the input-output linkage temporarily) but not change anything else. Does Cayenne have a ‘customer’ mode that offers this sort of predefined limited access?

There’s not really a “customer mode” available yet. You can set up an account for the customer but that obviously wouldn’t stop the customer from adding/changing widgets on the account. I agree it’s a good idea to add in user permissions per account. I want to eventually get some lights around the house set up using Cayenne and allow my wife to connect with her phone to control them too.

@kris @adam Permissions level is definitely on the roadmap of features we’ll be developing! Hang in there

Bringing this up.
I’ve got idea for this topic…
How about to implement this levels of access to projects:
- public (read-only)
- private (read-only for invitee)
- restricted (read-only for invitee, read/write for invitee with password)
- private only (just project owner can access it, and it is default setting)
I guess it can be done fast, but as I don’t know complexity of Cayenne source, I can’t claim that.
IMHO, this could satisfy most users, except most advanced ones who need/want more leveled access rights…
EDIT: one more thing: public access could also “strip” all buttons, just to show data, not allowing switching… Just an idea…
