The Teleport Web UI is a web-based visual interface from which you can access resources, view active sessions and recordings, create and review Access Requests, manage users and roles, and more.
This page serves a reference on Web UI features and their usage.
Joining an active session
The Teleport Web UI allows you to list and join active SSH sessions using a web-based terminal.
You can view the active SSH sessions that you are allowed to list by clicking Active Sessions in the navigation sidebar.
You can only see active sessions if you are assigned a role with list
access for the ssh_session
resource.
For more information about role permissions and access to resources, see Teleport Access Controls
Reference.
From the active sessions list, click Join and select a participant mode to join the session:
- As an Observer with read-only access to the session. You can view output but cannot control the session in any way nor send any input.
- As a Moderator with permission to watch, pause, or terminate the session. You can view output and forcefully terminate or pause the session at any time, but can't send input.
- As a Peer to collaborate in the session. You can view output and send input.
You must have the join_sessions
allow policy in a role you've been assigned to join sessions in any participant mode.
For information about how to configure the join_sessions
allow policy and participant modes for a role, see
Configure an allow policy.
