About the Administration Console
About the Administration Console
The Coveo Administration Console is a web application allowing its users to manage their Coveo organization.
To access the Administration Console, one must be granted the privilege to see one of its pages, at least. Then, after logging in, they can review certain data or perform certain tasks, depending on the set of privileges they have been granted. For example, they could be allowed to manage the content of your organization or review data.

Leading practice
Not all Coveo users in your company or organization need to access the Coveo Administration Console. Most Coveo users in your ecosystem only interact with the Coveo-powered search interfaces you implemented in your intranet, customer support application, customer portal, etc. These end users are only seeking relevant content and don’t need to understand or manage the mechanics providing them their content. Therefore, you should only grant the privilege to access the Coveo Administration Console to coworkers who actually need to review or edit your Coveo organization data and configuration. |
Here’s a breakdown of the Administration Console:

Organization picker
The organization picker indicates which organization you’re managing with the Administration Console, as well as its type. When you have access to more than one organization, you can switch between organizations through this menu.
Typically, Coveo customers have at least one production organization, which powers their search interfaces. They may also have one or more non-production organizations for testing purposes.
Project filter
The project filter lets you select a project, filtering the Administration Console to display only the resources associated with that project.
For more information on the projects feature or to have it enabled in your organization, see Manage projects.
User menu
The user menu displays your name, email address, and service provider. It allows you to create user notifications and to log out of the Administration Console. It also contains links to Coveo’s security documentation and terms and conditions.
Home page
The Administration Console home page provides an overview of your organization, including recent activity and key metrics. Important notifications regarding your organization or Coveo’s systems also appear on this page.
The Watchtower section displays issues and warnings regarding your organization and its resources. On the right side, the Coveo Connect section provides links to Coveo resources and announcements.
On top of the privilege to view the organization, which is required to access the Administration Console, you’ll need the privilege to view activities to see the recent activity section on the home page.
