Client Admin
The Client Admin handles day-to-day administration in Nuxari: managing users, connectors, integrations, templates, and workflows.
Last updated: June 2026
Who this is for
IT administrators, platform managers, or operations leads responsible for running and maintaining the Nuxari tenant on a daily basis.
Purpose
The Client Admin role is designed for users who run the Nuxari platform day to day without needing the full authority of a Client Owner. Admins can manage most operational aspects of the tenant — users, connectors, templates, and workflows — while being subject to the security and approval policies that owners set.
What Client Admins can do
- Invite and remove users from the tenant.
- Assign roles to users, excluding the Client Owner role (only owners can assign owners).
- Add, configure, and manage connectors and integrations.
- Install, manage, and remove governance templates and control packs.
- Create, configure, and run workflows and automation.
- View all governance data, findings, evidence, audit logs, and reports across the tenant.
- Manage scheduled jobs and remediation plans.
- Configure notification settings for users and teams.
What Client Admins cannot do
- Assign or revoke the Client Owner role — only Client Owners can do this.
- Bypass MFA enforcement policies set by the Client Owner or Client Security Admin.
- Bypass approval workflows — even admins must go through the approval process for governed actions.
- Manage billing or subscription settings (this requires Client Owner).
- Modify security monitoring or PIM policy configuration (this requires Client Security Admin or Client Owner).
PIM eligibility
The Client Admin role is PIM-eligible. When configured with PIM, the role can be held as eligible rather than permanently active, and activated just-in-time with a justification when administrative work is needed. This reduces persistent privileged access and ensures admin actions are intentional and audited.
Assignment guidance
- Assign Client Admin to people actively responsible for running and maintaining the platform.
- Do not assign Client Admin to users who only need to submit requests or run templates — use Governance Operator or Requester instead.
- Review Client Admin assignments when team responsibilities change.
