This month focused on strengthening IAM RBAC for Parent/Child workflows and delivering UI and permission enhancements across two major repos, with a clear emphasis on security, accuracy, and business value. In mpolotsk-akamai/manager, we delivered comprehensive RBAC improvements including conditional rendering for delegation-enabled child accounts, improved handling of delegated users, and the integration of Default Entity Access to standardize permissions and UX, complemented by a bug fix to volumes RBAC that corrects the Detach action gating. We also advanced real-time data accuracy for IAM delegation by introducing a useIsIAMDelegationEnabled flag, refactoring queries for delegated child accounts, and adding an endpoint for short-lived entity refetches. In linode/manager, delegation routing and UI enhancements were implemented, including route redirection for non-parent users and improved spacing with a success notification for role changes within IAM Parent/Child. These changes collectively improve security posture, reduce admin friction, and accelerate reliable, auditable workflows across teams.
