You can make administrative changes to the workspace only by using Grafana APIs.

    • Set Assertion attribute role to the attribute name that you chose.

    • Set Admin role values to value corresponding to your admin users' roles.

    • (Optional) If you changed the default attributes in your Okta application, expand Additional settings - optional and then set the new attribute names.
