Analysis / Root cause:
The Projects list page (Home > Projects) gated metrics column visibility on CAN_GET_NS, a cluster-scoped namespace GET permission that non-admin users lack. Additionally, fetchNamespaceMetrics() used the cluster-scoped Prometheus endpoint (/api/prometheus), which returns 403 for non-admin users. As a result, non-admin users either saw no CPU/Memory columns at all, or saw hyphens for all projects.

Solution description:

  • Show the CPU/Memory columns for all users when Prometheus is available (removed canGetNS gate from showMetrics)
  • Added fetchNamespaceTenancyMetrics() that queries the per-namespace Prometheus tenancy endpoint (/api/prometheus-tenancy) for non-admin users, following the same pattern used by fetchOverviewMetrics in metricUtils.ts and the pod list page
  • Admin users (canGetNS === true) continue using the efficient single cluster-wide query via fetchNamespaceMetrics()

Screenshots / screen recording:

Test setup:

  1. Create a non-admin user (e.g. htpasswd identity provider)
  2. Grant the user edit access to a namespace with running pods consuming CPU/memory

Test cases:

  • Log in as a non-admin user, navigate to Home > Projects, verify CPU and Memory columns are visible with actual values
  • Log in as cluster-admin, verify CPU and Memory columns still work as before
  • Verify no console errors related to metrics fetching

Browser conformance:

  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Safari (or Epiphany on Linux)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added CPU and memory metrics for projects within the current tenancy.
    • Project metrics are now displayed whenever monitoring data is available.
    • Metrics automatically use the broadest view permitted by access settings, with a scoped alternative when needed.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling when monitoring data is unavailable or metric queries fail.
    • Metric polling now stays aligned with selected projects and pauses while access permissions are being checked.
    • Prevented metric updates after leaving the page.

Walkthrough

The namespace component adds tenancy-scoped Prometheus CPU and memory queries. It uses cluster-wide queries when permitted and tenancy-scoped queries otherwise. Polling waits for access state and tracks selected namespaces.

Changes

Namespace metrics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Tenancy metric retrieval
frontend/public/components/namespace.jsx
The component imports the tenancy Prometheus endpoint and retrieves CPU and memory metrics for listed namespaces. It returns empty data when the endpoint is unavailable, no namespaces exist, or a query fails.
Metric polling selection
frontend/public/components/namespace.jsx
The component derives project namespaces, waits while access capability is pending, selects cluster-wide or tenancy-scoped retrieval, prevents updates after unmount, and tracks relevant polling dependencies.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~15–30 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 03b66

The change enables CPU and memory metrics for non-admin project users while preserving the existing admin path, and no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

return immediately when flagPending(canGetNS) is true, preventing fetches,
dispatches, and interval polling while the flag is unresolved. Add an
effect-scoped active/cleanup guard so resolved requests do not dispatch after
cleanup; preserve the existing namespace metrics selection and 30-second polling
once canGetNS is settled.

Use the Prometheus tenancy endpoint for non-admin users so the Projects
