Configure Users and Roles

DLTK uses Splunk’s role-based access control system.

A regular Splunk user (a user importing the built-in user role) can open DLTK dashboards, but cannot change/manage anything nor execute algorithms. A Splunk admin user (a user importing the built-in admin role) has all the capabilities requires for administrating DLTK.

DLTK adds the following roles:

• dltk_user
• dltk_engineer (imports dltk_user role)
• dltk_admin (imports dltk_engineer role)

Users in the dltk_user role can execute DLTK algorithms. Users in the dltk_engineer role can create, delete and configure DLTK algorithms and deploy algorithms to environments. Users in the dltk_admin role can create, delete and configure DLTK environments and configure DLTK system-level objects.

Depending on what the users of your Splunk environment should be able to do, make sure the corresponding Splunk user objects import one of the above DLTK roles.

The following steps describe how to assign a DLTK role to an existing Splunk user:

1. Open the Splunk web interface
2. Click on Settings in the top Splunk bar
3. Click on Users in the Users and Authentication section
4. Identify the user that you want to assign a DLTK role to
5. Click on Edit in the Actions table column
6. Assign roles by clicking on the DLTK role name (dltk_user, dltk_engineer or dltk_admin) in the list of Available item(s) to make sure they appear in the list of Selected item(s)
7. Click Save
