User management not available in WebUI

[jacksgt]

Hi all,

I set up an instance of Versity Gateway 1.3.1 with the Admin API and Web UI enabled.
From the CLI, I am able to create and list users:

~ $ versitygw admin list-users
Account  Role   UserID  GroupID  ProjectID
-------  ----   ------  -------  ---------
jack     admin  0       0        0

But I don't see the options to manage users in the WebUI - neither when logging in with the "root" account, nor with the "admin" account created above.

What am I missing?

Here is my config (Kubernetes YAML):

I figured it out :-)

It turns out that my Admin endpoint was not properly exposed / available at https://s3-admin.example.com.
When loading the WebUI for the first time, the WebUI pings the admin endpoint to see if it is available. In my case it was not available externally, so the WebUI thought the Admin API is not enabled and did not even show the options for user management.

TLDR: It works after ensuring the admin API is available externally.
