Accessing the Drill Web UI

- If HTTPS support is disabled, use the default URL: http://<IP address or host name>:8047
- If HTTPS support is enabled, use this URL: https://<IP address or host name>:8047

If user authentication is enabled, Drill prompts you for a user name and password:
If an administrator logs in, all the Drill Web UI controls appear, including Query, Profiles, Storage, Metrics, Threads, and Options. For administrators, the Profiles page contains the profiles of all queries executed on a cluster. Only administrators can see and use the Storage tab to view, update, or add a new storage plugin configuration. Only administrators can see and use the Threads tab, which provides information about threads running in Drill.
If a non-administrative user logs in, the Drill Web UI controls are limited to Query, Metrics, and Profiles. The Profiles tab for a non-administrative user contains the profiles of all queries the user issued either through ODBC, JDBC, or the Drill Web UI.
