Regarding to the API and CA layer 7

Hi,

 

what should be the minimal access required to the different kinds of user for Gateway, OAuth, Portal, MySQL, Cassandra, REDIT?

 

Thank You.

Hi Pranjali,

 

Can you elaborate on your question? The minimal access level would depend on what you actual need the user to do.

The policy manager allows creation of roles for managing users access for PM.

 

Role-Based Access (RBAC) Guidelines - CA API Gateway - 9.3 - CA Technologies Documentation 

 

For OTK, the user grants defined in the doc would be required for setting up the DB and using the JDBC connection. 

Create or Upgrade the OTK Database - CA API Management OAuth Toolkit - 4.2 - CA Technologies Documentation 

 

Portal also allows definition of roles 

4.2

Roles and Permissions - CA API Developer Portal - 4.2 - CA Technologies Documentation 

 

3.5

Functionality by User Role - CA API Developer Portal 3.5 - CA Technologies Documentation 

 

Regards,

Joe
