Role elevation in Event Management

Yu Ueno
Tera Contributor

I am researching to implement Event Management for my instance.

I found this description in the documentation.
Components installed with Event Management
Note: Be careful with the evt_mgmt_admin role. the evt_mgmt_admin role can be elevated to the admin role.

Can a user with the evt_mgmt_admin role be elevated to admin simply by adding an event management plugin to the instance?
I would like to prevent users who are not system administrators from having the admin role, as it is undesirable for them to have the role.

Thank you in advance.

Is it necessary to also operate with a user with the admin role to use Event Management?--No evt_mgmt_admin will work

But Admin can access all.

Thanks for the reply.

I have installed a plugin to PDI and have a user with the evt_mgmt_admin role.
I have confirmed that this user cannot be promoted to the admin role, but why is there a statement in the documentation to be careful with the role?
