Users & Roles

UserRoles

DQM has two predefined roles:

  • admin - Allows all actions inside DQM and has access to all data sources. Admin users can modify all DQM settings

  • user - Allows all default actions inside DQM and has access to all data sources

Adding a custom role

NewRole

  • Role name - Identifier role name

  • Allowed connections - Allowed data sources for given role

  • Read-only - Defines given role as read-only, which will be assigned to license read-only users

  • Privileges - Access to specific functionalities of DQM. You can also use "All privileges" slider to enable all DQM functionalities or disable specific pages for selected role.

Adding a read-only role

NewRole

For read-only users you can choose specific pages they have access to.

Adding a new user

NewUser

  • Username - Username identifier

  • Display name - Display name which will be displayed throughout DQM

  • Password - User password (Password must be between 12 - 72 characters. We recommend using a mix of words, numbers and symbols). For OAuth/LDAP/AD users no password is needed. If these users will be assigned a password, they can access with both OAuth/LDAP/AD authentication and local user.

Recovering admin user

If in some case admin user credentials are forgotten, admin user password can be reset from the application machine. DQM container/JAR file should be rerun with parameter “dqm.recovery.password”

docker run -d -e … “JAVA_OPTIONS=-Ddqm.recovery.password=mynewtemppassword” {image}
java -Ddqm.recovery.password=mynewtemppassword … -jar SelectZero.jar
