Coralogix offers a flexible access management system that allows you to customize the level at which you control your users’ access to Coralogix resources and associated actions.
Organizations can access system roles with predefined permissions assigned to users based on their job functions. Create custom roles to combine permissions into new ones while maintaining security and compliance standards for flexibility. Permissions attached to a custom role apply to all resources of a particular resource type.
Organizations and users that need maximum flexibility can control user data scope by limiting access to particular applications and subsystems.
Role-Based Access Control
RBAC Model
Roles categorize users and define their account permissions, determining which actions they may perform and on which resources.
By default, Coralogix offers seven predefined system roles. You can create custom roles to customize between your users and their permissions by adding permissions to existing system roles.
By granting permissions to roles, any user who is associated with that role receives that permission. When users are associated with multiple roles, they receive all the permissions granted to each of their roles. The more roles a user is associated with, the more access they have within a Coralogix account.
Group Membership
Users enjoy role-based access based on their membership in one or more groups, each assigned particular roles. Find out more here.
Role Types
System Roles
Coralogix offers seven predefined system roles.
System Role
Description
Platform Admin
Platform admins manage all teams, user access, and settings. They can also manage and configure all Coralogix resources. They have full access to billing information and can revoke API keys. They have management and read-only access to organization settings.
Data Admin
Data admins can view and modify all Coralogix monitoring features. They may not view and manage organization settings and are limited in their access to team settings.
Observability Lead
Observability leads can view all Coralogix monitoring features but are limited in their management and configuration permissions. They may not view and manage organization settings and are limited in their access to team settings.
Standard User
Standard users have read-only access to certain Coralogix monitoring resources, while they can manage others. They can manage their user and team notification settings. They may view team membership and actions.
Read-Only User
Read-only users do not have access to make changes within Coralogix. This comes in handy when you’d like to share specific read-only views with a client, or when a member of one team needs to share a dashboard or other resource with someone outside their team.
No Access User
Users have no permissions. Use this system role as a baseline to create custom roles with limited permissions.
Security User
Security users can perform daily security tasks and manage related configurations, such as incident investigation, alert configuration, security posture visibility, and extension deployment.
Custom Roles
Custom roles allow you to specify and control the permissions, privileges, and access levels of different user groups within the platform. Rooted in our predefined system roles, custom roles enable you to tailor access and responsibilities to your team members’ specific needs and responsibilities.
When creating custom roles, one may exclusively add permissions to system roles.
A complete list of permissions available for custom roles can be found below.
Legacy Roles
Legacy roles are predefined system roles from our sunsetted role management system. Existing customers must migrate the legacy roles assigned to their users to system and custom roles to prevent role loss. Full instructions can be found here.
