Admin API
The Admin HTTP API does not currently work with an API Token. API Tokens are currently only linked to an organization and an organization role. They cannot be given
the permission of server admin, only users can be given that permission. So in order to use these API calls you will have to use Basic Auth and the Grafana user
must have the Grafana Admin permission. (The default admin user is called admin
and has permission to use this API.)
If you are running Grafana Enterprise and have [Fine-grained access control]({{< relref "../enterprise/access-control/_index.md" >}}) enabled, for some endpoints you would need to have relevant permissions. Refer to specific resources to understand what permissions are required.
