Access Control for IIB Plugin/Agent

For the IIB plugin, it is our understanding that the agent requires full admin access in order for the plugin to work. Unfortunately that creates many separation of duties issues and allows teams performing builds and deployments access to many other actions that they should not be allowed to do. We would like to be able to configure the access for the agent to only allow actions the teams should have access to.

    You can define an impersonation user for each step. Please have a look at the documentation: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/urbancode-deploy/7.2.3?topic=processes-user-impersonation-process-steps

    If your agent runs on Windows, there is no other way than described in the documentation

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.

    As user of the IIB plugin, I want to comment on this as this request as honoring it could impact our implementtion in a negative way.
    Authorisations for activities for different roles in UrbanCode should be in the UCD front-end (UCD server), not in the UCD agent. Furthermore this can be implemented today in UCD.
