Manage instances

Enterprise

This feature is only available as an add-on to the Enterprise plan.

Instances are the top-level namespace of the BSR's Confluent Schema Registry integration, which can be used to group related schemas. All users within your BSR have read access to all configured instances and their registered schemas.

  1. Log into the BSR as a server administrator and navigate to the Admin panel via the dropdown under your username in the top right corner.

  2. Select Confluent integration in the left side menu.
