Adding a Read-Only user

To add a Read-Only user role in your Matillion ETL instance, do the following:

Internal security configurations

1. In the top-right, click Admin → User Configuration.
2. The User Configuration dialog will be displayed. Click the Select Security Configuration drop-down menu at the top, and select Internal.

3. The Manage Users tab will already be open. In the Read-Only column, check the corresponding row's checkbox if you wish to assign the Read-Only role to a user.

   Note

   Assigning the Read-Only role to a user removes all other roles. Therefore, when you check the Read-Only checkbox, all of the following boxes will be un-ticked:

   • Server Admin
   • API
   • Global Project Admin

   Conversely, ticking one of these boxes will un-tick the Read-Only checkbox.

External security configurations

1. In the top-right, click Admin → User Configuration.
2. The User Configuration dialog will be displayed. Click the Select Security Configuration drop-down menu at the top, and select External.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the Set Realm Parameters form to find the Read-Only drop-down menu. Set this to Yes to assign a Read-Only role.
