Configuration

Synapse Admin could be configured using the following ways (both are optional, and both could be used together):

In case you are an etke.cc customer, or use spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy, or etkecc/ansible, configuration will be automatically added to the /.well-known/matrix/client file.

Why /.well-known/matrix/client?

Because any instance of Synapse Admin will automatically pick up the configuration from the homeserver. Common use case when you have a Synapse server running, but don't want (or can't) deploy Synapse Admin alongside with it. In this case, you could provide the configuration in the /.well-known/matrix/client file, and any Synapse Admin instance (e.g., admin.etke.cc will pick it up.

Another common case is when you have multiple Synapse servers running and want to use a single Synapse Admin instance to manage them all. In this case, you could provide the configuration in the /.well-known/matrix/client file for each of the servers.

Configuration options

  • restrictBaseUrl - restrictBaseUrl restricts the Synapse Admin instance to work only with specific homeserver(-s). It accepts both a string and an array of strings. The homeserver URL should be the actual homeserver URL, and not the delegated one. Example: https://matrix.example.com or https://synapse.example.net More details
  • asManagedUsers - protect system user accounts managed by appservices (such as bridges) / system (such as bots) from accidental changes. By defining a list of MXID regex patterns, you can protect these accounts from accidental changes. Example: ^@baibot:example\\.com$, ^@slackbot:example\\.com$, ^@slack_[a-zA-Z0-9\\-]+:example\\.com$, ^@telegrambot:example\\.com$, ^@telegram_[a-zA-Z0-9]+:example\\.com$ More details
  • menu - add custom menu items to the main menu (sidebar) by providing a menu array in the config. Each menu item can contain the following fields:
    • label (required): The text to display in the menu.
    • icon (optional): The icon to display next to the label, one of the [../src/components/icons.ts] icons, otherwise a default icon will be used.
    • url (required): The URL to navigate to when the menu item is clicked. More details
