Suggestions, wishes Openhab 5

[Dzintars_Salmins (Dzintars Salmiņš)]

I’ve been using OpenHAB for quite some time across multiple projects. It’s a great product, but there’s one issue that prevents full implementation—it lacks proper user access control:

1. When defining pages, it’s possible to specify which users can open them. However, any user can still modify “Items” values via the REST API.
2. Any user can see all “Items.”

For example, if a building has a tenant, how can access be restricted so they only see and control their designated “Items”?

Could this be addressed in the future?

it lacks proper user access control

See here:

Possibility to add different users and set custom permissions to certain pages and even certain options (like this, we could set a user that would have access only to a specific page, let’s say, Guest Room, where that room would have a tablet with only things for that room and bathroom, no access to anything else, this could also apply to hotels)

Some people are currently working on this. Add Role Based Access Control [RBAC] · Issue #3305 · openhab/openhab-core · GitHub
