=== Create or Update Role
|
|
|
|
experimental["This API is experimental and may be changed or removed completely in a future release. Although the underlying mechanism of enforcing role-based access control is stable, the APIs for managing the roles are currently experimental."]
|
|
|
|
Creates a new {kib} role or updates the attributes of an existing role. {kib} roles are stored in the
|
|
{es} native realm.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: You cannot access this endpoint via the Console in Kibana.
|
|
|
|
==== Authorization
|
|
|
|
To use this API, you must have at least the `manage_security` cluster privilege.
|
|
|
|
==== Request
|
|
|
|
To create or update a role, issue a PUT request to the
|
|
`/api/security/role/<rolename>` endpoint.
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
PUT /api/security/role/my_kibana_role
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
==== Request Body
|
|
|
|
The following parameters can be specified in the body of a PUT request to add or update a role:
|
|
|
|
`metadata`:: (object) Optional meta-data. Within the `metadata` object, keys
|
|
that begin with `_` are reserved for system usage.
|
|
|
|
`elasticsearch`:: (object) Optional {es} cluster and index privileges, valid keys are
|
|
`cluster`, `indices` and `run_as`. For more information, see {xpack-ref}/defining-roles.html[Defining Roles].
|
|
|
|
`kibana`:: (object) An object that specifies the <<kibana-privileges>>. Valid keys are `global` and `space`. Privileges defined in the `global` key will apply to all spaces within Kibana, and will take precedent over any privileges defined in the `space` key. For example, specifying `global: ["all"]` will grant full access to all spaces within Kibana, even if the role indicates that a specific space should only have `read` privileges.
