Tailscale lets you manage your tailnet’s access permissions, including which users are allowed to connect to which machines, using our powerful HuJSON (JSON for Humans) policy file. However, there may be times you prefer to use web forms instead of working with HuJSON directly. We've made this possible with our new visual policy editor.
The visual policy editor gives you a tabular view of each section of your policy file, and allows you to add, edit, and delete individual policy entries using visual forms.
You can use the visual editor in addition to the existing management methods. The policy file can still be edited directly in the admin console, via GitOp, via Terraform using our tailscale_acl resource, or programatically via our REST API.
Lots of our users love the flexibility that the HuJSON policy file provides, but we’ve heard your requests for a more visual way to manage policies. We designed the new visual editor so that you don't have to choose. Under the covers, your policy continues to be stored as the familiar HuJSON, so you can toggle back and forth between both ways of working with your policy file. We even preserve your doc comments and surface them in the visual editor.
