MDM custom roles and access control
In order to establish clear user roles and responsibilities, Talend Studio offers a very fine-grained security feature based on custom roles.
The custom roles are defined centrally in Talend Studio.
For each custom role, it is possible to define:
-
role permission (Read and Write or Read only),
-
which data objects or items pertained in data objects are accessible.
The main data objects for which you can set access control are:
-
Data containers: grant permission to store data in different containers,
-
Data models: grant permission to define or modify data entities,
-
Items: grant record-based access in read-only or write modes,
-
Menus: grant access for business users to menus in Talend MDM Web UI,
-
Processes: define the actions a user can trigger,
-
Views: offer access, search and filter functions on data via Talend MDM Web UI.
Access restrictions are applied immediately upon successful connection to the MDM Hub.
Upon defining a custom role, you need to deploy it to the MDM server so that it is available to authorized users on the User Manager page in Talend MDM Web UI.
