Logs Roles and Permissions
Last updated on 08 May, 2023Roles are sets of permissions and configurations that determine how a user interacts with the LogicMonitor platform, and what functionality users can access. By default, LogicMonitor installs with a set of standard roles. For more information, see Roles.
Configuring Permissions
Administrators can manage access to LM Logs. Navigate to Settings > Users & Roles > Roles, and select the Settings icon to edit permission settings for LM Logs.
Logs
- View grants access to the Logs page. If you don’t have this permission enabled, you will not be able to see the Logs page or any of its shared functions on other pages.
Pipelines
- View grants access to the Logs > Pipelines page and other pipeline processing pages such as Alert Conditions. For more information, see Log Processing Pipelines.
- Manage enables you to view, add, and edit pipelines and pipeline alerts.
Log Ingestion API
- Manage lets an API-only user submit logs through the Log Ingestion API. For more information, see Sending Logs to the LM Logs Ingestion API.
Note: To view logs for a resource, a user needs to have permission to view both the resource and view the logs. This means that if you have logs enabled, but you do not have access to the resource group, you will not be able to see logs from any device in that group. For more information, see LogicMonitor Resource Permission Settings.
