   This is the current view but we are unable to find the exact source code as to where we remove these components as the user doesn't need access to this or needs to view this. Thanks!

   Hello, @apraba05

   This is the source code that controls the display of the SSH key pairs section:

   cloudstack/ui/src/config/section/compute.js

   Lines 827 to 910 in 39c5641

   	fields.push('project')
   	}

   	},
   	account: {
   	value: (record, params) => { return record.account }
   	},
   	domainid: {
   	value: (record, params) => { return record.domainid }
   	}
   	},
   	groupAction: true,
   	popup: true,
   	groupMap: (selection, values, record) => {
   	return selection.map(x => {
   	const data = record.filter(y => { return y.id === x })
   	return {
   	name: data[0].name,
   	account: data[0].account,
   	domainid: data[0].domainid,
   	projectid: data[0].projectid
   	}
   	})
   	}
   	}
   	]
   	},

   The best approach to hide it from end users is by revoking access to the APIs that manage SSH key pairs, which essentially are: listSSHKeyPairs, createSSHKeyPair and deleteSSHKeyPair. To revoke the APIs access, I'd recommend creating a custom role based on the existing role that is in use by the end user accounts.

   I'm actually just looking to remove it completely from the UI. This would then ensure that the user is unable to view it all. It's fine even if the Administrators are unable to view it too. I needed to do it for the Affinity Groups and User Data.

   Thanks for your help @bernardodemarco!
