Hi,

In AWX, when login with normal user it takes me to dashboard but not giving any option to view the settings. If the user do not have access to Settings, I would expect that permission denied error would be display.

However taking me to dashboard page is little confusing. Is it expected ?  
Is there any option to change this view for normal users to show the settings page in read-only mode.

Environment details:  
AWX 17.0.1

Ansible 2.9.17

Appreciate the support.

Thanks  
Prakash
