Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
TRE Administrators should not need to alter the cosmos DB directly to achieve simple tasks such as

  • template deregistration
  • clearing stuck/pending jobs from the queue
  • showing all upgradable workspaces / components in a single view
  • ability to view logs of systems in one place

Describe the solution you'd like
Create an admin page or pages in the UI which allows common admin tasks such as those described above.
Extend the API to allow this where necessary.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The current alternative requires running commands on the CosmosDB directly which is not desirable and risks breaking the TRE.

Research direction

Start by reading related issue #3517 and reviewing the existing UI and API entry points for administrative operations. Define the scope around template deregistration, clearing stuck or pending jobs, showing upgradable workspaces and components, and viewing system logs; done means these tasks no longer require direct CosmosDB access.
