We’re on v16.3. Is it possible to have an MMM role which has:

  • read metadata access

  • run profiling jobs

  • run lkp builder jobs

  • run monitoring project jobs

But without the ability for example to edit the contents? e.g. just run a lkp builder job but not be able to amend the configurations of the lkp, or run the monitoring project without ability to change anything.

I tried looking at documentation, seems like for Monitoring Project, the levels of view metadata access and view data access doesn’t allow running the project, while full access can. However full access also gives editing rights to monitoring projects which we don’t want to allow.

Has anyone else run into the same scenario? How have you solved it?

Hi ​@may_kwok ,

you can create a new Access level and set it up for each of the metadata model node where you need this specific access. For example on monitoringProject entity in the metadata model, there is a tab Access levels:

Under the Access levels are operations you can edit:

So you could take access level settings similar to View Metadata Access (so allow just viewing), and just enable the Run processing operation.

Please let me know if this helps, or if this is also something you considered and it didn’t help. 

Kind regards,

Anna
