Read-only operator mode

Dear Camunda Folks,

Would appreciate your advise on implementing a read-only Operator role in Cockpit.
We are looking for a way to provide “reporting” capability, while avoiding segregation of duty conflicts. What would be a sufficient level of authorisations to assign a group READ_ONLY access to cockpit?

Would be also happy to hear your thoughts on lessons learnt.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Ilya

Hi, Ilya!

We resolve this case with REST API - write small vue.js app. May be you can look that way.

Hi Denis,

Thank you for your suggestion. I am looking for really simple no-code options :wink:

What is read only mean in your context? You can see everything but not actually action anything?

Hi Ilya,

The user needs access to Cockpit and READ permissions to everything which is needed:

  • process definition (+ READ_INSTANCES)
  • process instance
  • decision definition
  • deployment
  • batch

You need to consider adding the READ_HISTORY if the user needs access to it as well.
