             Summary: Provide configuration to enable/disable ability to cancel jobs in Web Frontend
                 Key: FLINK-8031
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8031
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: flink-contrib
    Affects Versions: 1.3.2
            Reporter: Stephen Hesketh


The Web API can be configured to prevent job submission by setting jobmanager.web.submit.enable to false in the Flink YAML configuration file:

{quote}
\# Flag to specify whether job submission is enabled from the web-based
\# runtime monitor. Uncomment to disable.
{color:red}
jobmanager.web.submit.enable: false{color}
{quote}

However, users can still cancel running jobs. We would like to be able to offer the Web Frontend to teams for monitoring of jobs. However, since this is shared infrastructure we do not want users to be able to run or cancel jobs through this interface.

It is proposed that the ability to cancel jobs is also configurable in the Flink yaml configuration file.
