Private Cloud: Edge on-premises installation only. In a
Cloud-based installation of Edge, Apigee functions in the role of read-only system administrator.
You can only assign global users to the read-only system administrator role in an Edge for the
Private Cloud installation.An Edge read-only system administrator has access to the same
entities as an system administrator but access is read-only. A read-only system administrator
can:
Perform the operations of the Edge built-in roles for all
organizations
View global user details
View organization, environment, and virtual host configurations
Make read-only calls to all Edge system administrative APIs
Note: While it is not required, you can assign a read-only system
administrator to an organization, typically as a read-only organization administrator. Unless
assigned to an organization, the read-only system administrator cannot log in to the Edge
management UI.
