The customer wants to grant some users on AEM Managed Services access to the OSGi console at https://author IP> /system/console/configMgr.
The users are members of the Admin user group, which has the same permissions as the administrator who can access the console without issue, yet they are unable to access it and receive the error 403 Forbidden:
HTTP ERROR 403 Forbidden
URI: /system/console/configMgr
MESSAGE: Forbidden
SERVLET: org.apache.felix.http.base.internal.dispatch.DispatcherServlet-2f11b042
Resolution resolution
The permissions provided are the user permissions and they do not necessarily grant the user access to the OSGi Console.
- Access the OSGi console using the Admin user - :/system/console/configMgr,
- Search and edit: Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider.
- Verify that the group your user is part of is added to their respective Group Names.
If the group is not present, please add it and you will be able to access the OSGi console.
