Does anyone know what type of properties we can add to these boxes?

I am looking to see if there is a way to limit a Global API key to just have the ability to update plugins. Are there any recommendations for this? I am trying to create a GitHub action that can update several DSS instances without having to do it manually.

    Hi Adam,

    In order to update plugins, you will need admin-level privileges, as mentioned in the REST API documentation relative to plugin updates. To achieve that, you must tick the "Administrator" box in your global API key's permission settings.

    Best,

    @HarizoR
    thank you for the clarification. I was hoping I could just limit the update plugins ability with a global API key without granting full admin access for everything but it is ok if that is not possible.
