Access Control Management

With customizable user roles, API key management, and comprehensive audit logs, Portkey provides the flexibility and control needed to ensure secure collaboration & maintain a strong security posture

This is a Portkey Enterprise plan feature.

At Portkey, we understand the critical importance of access control and data security for enterprise customers. Our platform provides a robust and flexible access control management system that enables you to safeguard your sensitive information while empowering your teams to collaborate effectively.

1. Isolated and Customizable Organizations

Portkey’s enterprise version allows you to create multiple organizations, each serving as a secure and isolated environment for your teams or projects. This multi-tenant architecture ensures that your data, logs, analytics, prompts, virtual keys, configs, guardrails, and API keys are strictly confined within each organization, preventing unauthorized access and maintaining data confidentiality.

With the ability to create and manage multiple organizations, you can tailor access control to match your company’s structure and project requirements. Users can be assigned to specific organizations, and they can seamlessly switch between them using Portkey’s intuitive user interface.

2. Fine-Grained User Roles and Permissions

Portkey offers a comprehensive Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system that allows you to define and assign user roles with granular permissions. By default, Portkey provides three roles: Owner, Admin, and Member, each with a predefined set of permissions across various features.

• Owners have complete control over the organization, including user management, billing, and all platform features.
• Admins have elevated privileges, allowing them to manage users, prompts, configs, guardrails, virtual keys, and API keys.
• Members have access to essential features like logs, analytics, prompts, configs, and virtual keys, with limited permissions.

Feature	Owner Role	Admin Role	Member Role
Logs and Analytics	View, Filter, Group	View, Filter, Group	View, Filter, Group
Prompts	List, View, Create, Update, Delete, Publish	List, View, Create, Update, Delete, Publish	List, View, Create, Update
Configs	List, View, Create, Update, Delete	List, View, Create, Update, Delete	List, View, Create
Guardrails	List, View, Create, Update, Delete	List, View, Create, Update, Delete	List, View, Create, Update
Virtual Keys	List, Create, Edit, Duplicate, Delete, Copy	List, Create, Edit, Duplicate, Delete, Copy	List, Copy
Team	Add users, assign roles	Add users, assign roles	-

You can easily add team members to your organization and assign them appropriate roles based on their responsibilities. Portkey’s user-friendly interface simplifies the process of inviting users and managing their roles, ensuring that the right people have access to the right resources.

3. Secure and Customizable API Key Management

Portkey provides a secure and flexible API key management system that allows you to create and manage multiple API keys with fine-grained permissions. Each API key can be customized to grant specific access levels to different features, such as metrics, completions, prompts, configs, guardrails, virtual keys, team management, and API key management.

Feature	Permissions	Default
Metrics	Disabled, Enabled	Disabled
Completions (all LLM calls)	Disabled, Enabled	Enabled
Prompts	Disabled, Read, Write, Delete	Read
Configs	Disabled, Read, Write, Delete	Disabled
Guardrails	Disabled, Read, Write, Delete	Disabled
Virtual Keys	Disabled, Read, Write, Delete	Disabled
Users (Team Management)	Disabled, Read, Write, Delete	Disabled

By default, a new organization is provisioned with a master API key that has all permissions enabled. Owners and admins can edit and manage these keys, as well as create new API keys with tailored permissions. This granular control enables you to enforce the principle of least privilege, ensuring that each API key has access only to the necessary resources.

Portkey’s API key management system provides a secure and auditable way to control access to your organization’s data and resources, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.

Audit Logs

Portkey maintains detailed audit logs that capture all administrative activities across the platform. These logs provide visibility into actions related to prompts, configs, guardrails, virtual keys, team management, organization updates, and API key modifications.

Each log entry includes information about the user, the action performed, the affected resource, and a timestamp. This ensures traceability and accountability, helping teams monitor changes and investigate any unauthorized activity.

Audit logs can be filtered by user, action type, resource, and time range, making it easy to track specific events. Organizations can use this data to enforce security policies, ensure compliance, and maintain operational integrity.

Portkey’s audit logging system provides a clear and structured way to review platform activity, ensuring security and compliance across all operations.
