Does setting admin_users work?

No, it did not. I had to explicitly disable it because LDAP and Admin_users would not merge....

I was looking for a way to set the admin group for LDAP/Active Directory authentication.
Since switching to LDAP disabled my previous created admin user.

This shouldn't be too hard to do based on LDAP group. But until then, just add the following line in your jupyterhub_config.py file.

c.Authenticator.admin_users = {'MY_LDAP_ADMIN_ACCOUNT'}

c.LDAPAuthenticator.admin_users = {'username'}

great - this worked for me!
can you also tell me on how to put multiple users there? Separating usernames via comma doesn't work:

c.LDAPAuthenticator.admin_users = {'username,anotheruser,anotheruser'}

This not a big issue, because I'm now able to access the admin GUI again and set more admins there if necessary. I just wonder where the permissions are set / saved - If I change something via GUI nothing seems to change in the jupyterhub_config.py

@seal61 so close!!! Try this.

c.Authenticator.admin_users = {'user1', 'user2', 'user3'}

Previous comment worked for me... but...

How do we specify admin using an LDAP group?

...I suspect we need an equivalent to

c.PAMAuthenticator.admin_groups = {'wheel'}

c.LDAPAuthenticator.admin_users = {'username'}

How can I define admin users list in config.yaml (or helm values) file for helm deployment?
I used following configuration and hub and all other pods are in running states but still can not see Admin pannel in Control pannel....

I am using latest version of jupyterhub...
Is there any workaround for that?
tnx in advance
