Admin Panel Reference

Adapted from docs/admin/AdminPanel.md in the Wikantik repository; current as of release 2.4.56.

This page is for administrators who use the admin area of the web UI. It lists every screen under /admin, what each is for, what you can do on it, and which REST endpoint backs it. Screens are listed in the order of the admin sidebar (AdminSidebar.jsx). Endpoints that have no screen are listed at the end.

Open the admin panel

Sign in with an account in the Admin group, then go to /admin. Accounts that are not administrators are redirected to /wiki/Main by the SPA and get HTTP 403 from the server. How administrator status is decided, and how to grant access to a single area, is in Security guide.

Every screen below calls a servlet under /admin/*, all protected by AdminAuthFilter. The routes are declared in wikantik-frontend/src/main.jsx; each servlet is mapped in wikantik-war/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml. The sidebar hides Knowledge Graph when the Knowledge Graph capability is off.

Admin Panel Security Controls, Content Management, and System Operations

/admin shows a dashboard of live cards: health and version, request load, pending Knowledge Graph proposals, retrieval quality (nDCG@5), LLM activity, search and index status, users and keys, and a recent-activity feed, plus a diagnostic band (Knowledge Graph size, extractor pipeline, judge, render cache, auth activity). Cards that have a destination link straight to the screen that handles them.

People and access

Users

/admin/users. Manage accounts: create, edit, delete, lock and unlock, and bulk actions on a selection (lock, unlock, delete, add to a group).

Security

/admin/security. Two sections: Groups (create, edit membership, delete) and Policy Grants (the policy_grants table that defines what each role may do, including scoped admin area grants).

API Keys

/admin/apikeys. Generate keys for MCP and tool clients, choose a scope, revoke keys singly or in bulk, and show revoked keys. The plaintext token is shown once.

Content

Content & Index

/admin/content. Six tabs: Dashboard (page and index statistics, flush render cache), Orphaned Pages (list, bulk delete), Broken Links, Versions (purge old versions of a page, keeping the newest N), Chunk Inspector (see how a page was chunked and find outlier chunks), and Index Status (rebuild the search indexes, reindex, reindex embeddings).

Page Ownership

/admin/page-ownership. Two tabs: Orphaned (pages with no owner, for example because the owner's account was deleted) and By Owner. Reassign one page, or reassign every page of a user.

Connectors

/admin/connectors, /admin/connectors/new, /admin/connectors/{id}. The list shows every connector, including read-only ones defined in properties. Add Connector runs a wizard: pick a type, describe the source, authorise, run a dry-run test, review. A connector's page has four tabs: Overview (status, recent sync runs, Sync now, test, import a properties-defined connector into the database), Settings, Authorization (secrets and the Google Drive consent flow) and Pages (the derived pages it produced). Delete can optionally delete those pages.

Knowledge Graph

/admin/knowledge-graph. Eight tabs: Proposals (review pending node and edge proposals), Extraction (run, watch and cancel the LLM entity extractor), Node Explorer, Edge Explorer, Content Embeddings (the mention-centroid index and frontmatter backfill), Hub Proposals, Hub Discovery (cluster-based discovery of new hubs) and LLM Activity (about the last hour of in-flight and recent LLM calls, held in memory only).

KG Policy

/admin/kg-policy. Decide, per cluster, whether its pages feed the Knowledge Graph (include, exclude, or unset, which means excluded by default). Filter by decision, review a cluster, and clear a decision. Three sub-screens: /admin/kg-policy/explain (why one page is in or out), /admin/kg-policy/pending (unset clusters, reviews older than 90 days, recent page-count changes) and /admin/kg-policy/bootstrap (seed decisions in bulk).

Retrieval Quality

/admin/retrieval-quality. Nightly retrieval-evaluation runs and their trends (recall and nDCG series), with a Run now button per query set and mode.

Drift

/admin/drift. Frontmatter and ontology-conformance drift counts across sweeps, with deltas, trend sparklines and a per-code page list. Trigger a sweep with Run sweep now.

Search Visibility

/admin/insights. Per-engine search acquisition totals (clicks, impressions, CTR, position, trend) for the latest snapshot, and below them the ranked content-opportunity backlog with a type filter and an include-snoozed toggle.

Observability

Audit

/admin/audit. Filter the tamper-evident audit log by category, outcome and date, open a record, verify the hash chain, and export CSV.

Admin endpoints without a screen

These /admin/* servlets are registered in web.xml but have no route in the SPA. Call them with curl as an administrator.

EndpointServletPurpose
/admin/ontology/*AdminOntologyResourcePOST /admin/ontology/rebuild, GET /admin/ontology/status, GET /admin/ontology/violations (SHACL conformance); see Ontology Management guide
/admin/derived/status, /admin/derived/reflowAdminDerivedResourcederived-page fleet status and reflow; see Derived Pages and Ingest guide
/admin/clusters/*AdminClusterResourcePOST /admin/clusters/rename?from=X&to=Y returns the plan; add confirm=true to apply (rewrites cluster: frontmatter only)
/admin/page-graph/conflictsAdminStructuralConflictsResourcestructural conflicts; see Drift Dashboard guide
/admin/verificationAdminVerificationResourceverification state of every page, with confidence and days since verified (filters confidence, min_days_stale)
/admin/frontmatter-issuesAdminFrontmatterIssuesResourcepages whose YAML frontmatter fails strict parsing, with the parser message and line and column
/admin/agent-grade-auditAdminAgentGradeAuditServletagent-grade content audit (needs the structural index; 503 without it)
/admin/profiling/jfr/*AdminProfilingServletJava Flight Recorder control: POST /start, POST /stop, GET /recordings, GET /recordings/{id} (downloads the .jfr file)
/admin/drift/citationsAdminDriftResourcecitation status counts and per-page citation lists; see Drift Dashboard guide
/admin/insights/ingestInsightsIngestResourcesearch-visibility snapshot upload

In total web.xml maps 29 /admin/* servlets under 37 URL patterns, and every one of them is covered on this page. The module and servlet counts for the rest of the system are in the architecture overview.
