Configuring RBAC
This section describes how to configure Role-based access controls for users
LOGIQ, not only supports access to logs but also to additional data sources. LOGIQ's RBAC enforcement works by restricting access to the data source. This in turn translates to restricting user access to queries and dashboards created on those data sources.
In addition, LOGIQ's log collection model works by mapping incoming log data into namespaces. In LOGIQ, a namespace is treated as a data source, thus allowing a uniform model for applying access restrictions.
Namespace restrictions are managed by the namespace data source. Only the admin users have privileges to access and modify data sources.
In the data source configuration, provide the data source settings by listing out the namespaces that are part of the data source definition. Provide a name for the data sources and then Save your configuration. In the example below, we are creating a NonAdmin-Namespace data source that has access restrictions to two namespaces
flash:advertise and prod-k8s:kube-system
The final step is to attach the namespace data source to a group. This restricts all users in the group to the namespaces defined in the data source.
Namespaces in LOGIQ map to virtual hosts or namespaces in Kubernetes clusters. Resources such as ECS clusters can also be mapped to namespaces.
Let us look at how this works in practice. In the example above, the access restrictions are applied to two namespaces
flash:advertise and prod-k8s:kube-systemThe user will be able to access only these 2 namespaces whether it may be View Only access or Full-Access
Yes, it is that simple!
