Setting up Synapse Admin (optional)

The playbook can install and configure synapse-admin for you.

It’s a web UI tool you can use to administrate users and rooms on your Matrix server.

See the project’s documentation to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.

Adjusting the playbook configuration

Add the following configuration to your inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml file:

matrix_synapse_admin_enabled: true

After configuring the playbook, run the installation command again:

ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start

After installation, Synapse Admin will be accessible at: https://matrix.DOMAIN/synapse-admin/

To use Synapse Admin, you need to have registered at least one administrator account on your server.

The Homeserver URL to use on Synapse Admin’s login page is: https://matrix.DOMAIN
