👨🏭Users & Roles
Datasentinel employs a multi-layered approach to secure user access to its platform and control who can access monitored PostgreSQL instances.
Refer to Blog Post
Management
Users can be managed through both the User Interface or API in an efficient manner.
LDAP Integration
In addition, the platform supports LDAP configuration for seamless authentication.
📓LDAPOnly authentication is managed by a LDAP server.
Other properties continue to be configured in the tool.
In our February 2024 update, we introduced a way to better manage user access. Now, users added automatically (using Grafana's LDAP integration) won't have full access until they're assigned a specific role. This can be easily set up in the Global Settings Dashboard, giving you more control over access permissions.
