Sidecars Access Limitation

Hi guys,

I’m trying to create a role that limits users to administer sidecars and API tokens without opening up the ability to modify the entire Graylog config.

I’ve been successful in limiting access with a custom role, but can’t get the Sidecars button to appear in the system menu. If a user with the role navigates to server.domain:9000/system/sidecars they actually get the sidecars options and can fully edit the sidecars, push configs, create new API keys etc.

However, for the life of me I can’t get the actual Sidecars button to appear. I resorted to granting read access to pretty much everything listed when I dumped out the granular permissions but the button still doesn’t appear.

Here’s what I’ve granted so far

'{"read_only": false,"permissions":["authentication:read",
"users:tokencreate",
"users:tokenlist",
"users:list",
"users:tokenremove",
"users:read",
"roles:read",
"sidecars:update", 
"sidecars:create", 
"sidecars:read",
"sidecars:delete",
"sidecar_collectors:update",
"sidecar_collectors:read",
"sidecar_collectors:create",
"sidecar_collectors:delete",
"sidecar_collector_configurations:read",
"sidecar_collector_configurations:update",
"sidecar_collector_configurations:create",
"sidecar_collector_configurations:delete",
"collectors:read", 
"messages:analyze", 
"extendedsearch:use",
"searches:absolute",
"searches:keyword",
"searches:relative",
"system:read",
"inputs:read",
"sources:read",
"loggers:read",
"deflector:read",
"inputs:read",
"catalog:list",
"eventnotifications:read",
"indexercluster:read",
"throughput:read",
"loggersmessages:read",
"fieldnames:read",
"buffers:read",
"node:read",
"decorators:read",
"processing:read",
"messages:read",
"stream_outputs:read",
"notifications:read",
"eventdefinitions:read",
"indexranges:read"],
"name": "Sidecar Administrator","description": "Permission to administer Sidecar nodes and API keys"}'

Does anyone have any idea if there’s a dependant permission or level of access that I’ve not granted that the Sidecars menu is reliant on before it appears in the System menu?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

do you mind to open a bug report over at https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/issues

This looks like one to me.

@jan Sure thing.

I’ll open one this morning.
