# Admin Panel Overview
|
|
|
|
The Admin Panel is the central control surface for TREK instance operators. It is only accessible to users with the `admin` role.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing the Admin Panel
|
|
|
|
Open the user menu in the top navigation bar (your avatar), then select **Admin**. If the entry is not there, your account does not have admin privileges.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Tabs
|
|
|
|
The Admin Panel is divided into tabs. Most tabs are always visible; a few appear only under specific conditions.
|
|
|
|
| Tab | Purpose | Conditional? |
|
|
|-----|---------|--------------|
|
|
| **Users** | Manage users, invite links, and permissions | No |
|
|
| **Personalization** | Packing templates and place categories | No |
|
|
| **User Defaults** | Default settings applied to new users | No |
|
|
| **Addons** | Enable or disable optional features instance-wide | No |
|
|
| **Plugins** | Install, update, and manage plugins; rescan the plugins folder; view each plugin's error log. See [Admin-Plugins](Admin-Plugins) | No |
|
|
| **Storage** | Storage backends, category assignment, replication, health | Hidden on managed instances |
|
|
| **Settings** | Authentication methods, MFA, allowed file types, API keys, OIDC/SSO configuration, and JWT secret rotation | No |
|
|
| **Notifications** | SMTP, webhook, ntfy, and push notification channel configuration; trip reminder toggle; admin notification preferences | No |
|
|
| **Backup** | Manual and scheduled full-instance backups: database, uploads, plugin data and plugin code. See [Backups](Backups) | Hidden on managed instances |
|
|
| **Audit** | Chronological activity log | No |
|
|
| **MCP Access** | OAuth sessions and static API tokens | Only when the MCP addon is enabled |
|
|
| **GitHub** | Release timeline and support links | Hidden on managed instances |
|
|
| **Dev: Notifications** | Test notification dispatch | Only in development mode (`NODE_ENV=development`) |
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Routing services
|
|
|
|
On desktop and mobile, **User Defaults** includes optional **Custom routing instance** and **Custom Valhalla instance** fields in the map section. Changes save when you leave the field; **reset** restores the built-in default. These fields are hidden on managed instances.
|
|
|
|
With both fields empty, TREK uses public OSRM servers for routing and the public FOSSGIS Valhalla for avoiding toll roads, motorways and ferries. Configuring only a custom routing instance disables the public Valhalla fallback. After entering a custom server URL, restart TREK and reload the page.
|
|
|
|
> **AI / MCP:** These fields configure browser routing services and do not change stored trip data.
|
|
|
|
### Linking to a tab directly
|
|
|
|
Every panel is reachable by URL, so a bookmark, an onboarding mail or a support reply can point at the one tab it is about instead of at the top of a page with thirteen of them:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/admin?tab=audit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Unlike the trip planner's `tab` parameter, this one stays in the address bar and is rewritten as you switch tabs, so the URL always says which panel you are looking at. It replaces the current history entry instead of adding one, so the back button still leaves the admin page rather than walking back through the tabs you visited.
|
|
|
|
| Tab | Id |
|
|
|-----|-----|
|
|
| Users | `users` (the default — carries no `?tab=`) |
|
|
| Personalization | `config` |
|
|
| User Defaults | `defaults` |
|
|
| Addons | `addons` |
|
|
| Plugins | `plugins` |
|
|
| Storage | `storage` |
|
|
| Settings | `settings` |
|
|
| Notifications | `notifications` |
|
|
| Backup | `backup` |
|
|
| Audit | `audit` |
|
|
| MCP Access | `mcp-tokens` |
|
|
| GitHub | `github` |
|
|
| Dev: Notifications | `dev-notifications` |
|
|
|
|
An id with no panel behind it opens **Users**, and on a managed instance the three tabs hidden there — `storage`, `github` and `backup` — fall back to **Users** as well. The other two conditional tabs behave differently: `mcp-tokens` and `dev-notifications` open their panel even when the MCP addon is off or the instance is not in development mode, with nothing highlighted in the sidebar, because the entry is missing from it.
|
|
|
|
## Plugin activity and audit
|
|
|
|
Plugins that are granted data-access capabilities have every host-mediated action they take recorded in a tamper-evident, hash-chained log. This log is separate from the instance **Audit** tab described above.
|
|
|
|
- **Admins** can review the per-plugin capability audit — every core-data read, broadcast, notification, and AI call a plugin made, with the acting user, the resource touched, and the outcome. It is served by `GET /api/admin/plugins/<id>/audit`; the admin plugin view itself currently surfaces only each plugin's error log (**View error log**).
|
|
- **Every user** (not just admins) can see the plugin actions taken in their own name under **Settings → Plugins**. This is what keeps a plugin's broad read grants accountable to the person whose data was read.
|
|
|
|
See [Audit-Log](Audit-Log) for details on the hash chain and how the two logs differ.
