Users need appropriate privileges to access, create, and modify Monitoring Service. Without necessary privileges, users have a read-only access and cannot provision changes. You can grant appropriate privileges via the User Manager.
To allow users to access, create, and modify the Monitoting Service, follow these steps:
Log in to the DCD with your username and password.
In the DCD menu, select Management > Users & Groups under Users.
Select the Groups tab in the User Manager window.
Select the appropriate group to assign relevant privileges.
In the Privileges tab, select Access and manage Monitoring to allow the associated group members to access and manage Monitoring Service.
Note: You can remove the privileges from the group by clearing Access and manage Monitoring.
Result: Appropriate privilege is granted to the group and the users in the respective group.
For improved user management and delegation, you can establish sub-users and grant them the necessary permissions to use the Monitoring Service. Sub-users can be given varying levels of access for their segment of the monitoring pipeline by the primary account owners. Only the pipelines that the primary account owner has assigned to sub-users are visible to them and can be managed, but they cannot access the primary account or pipelines created by other sub-users.
To create sub-users, follow these steps:
Log in to the DCD with your username and password.
In the DCD menu, select Management > Users & Groups under Users.
Select the Groups tab in the User Manager window.
Select the appropriate group to assign relevant privileges.
In the Members tab, click + Add User and select a user(s) from the list.
To delete an associated sub-user, click Remove User.
Result: A sub-user(s) is created.
