gRPC request

rpc Create (CreateUserRequest) returns (operation.Operation)

CreateUserRequest

{
  "clusterId": "string",
  "userSpec": {
    "name": "string",
    "password": "string",
    "permissions": [
      {
        "topicName": "string",
        "role": "AccessRole",
        "allowHosts": [
          "string"
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Field

Description

clusterId

string

Required field. ID of the Apache Kafka® cluster to create a user in.

To get the cluster ID, make a ClusterService.List request.

userSpec

UserSpec

Required field. Configuration of the user to create.

UserSpec

Field

Description

name

string

Required field. Name of the Kafka user.

password

string

Required field. Password of the Kafka user.

permissions[]

Permission

Set of permissions granted to the user.

Permission

Field

Description

topicName

string

Name or prefix-pattern with wildcard for the topic that the permission grants access to.

To get the topic name, make a TopicService.List request.

role

enum AccessRole

Access role type to grant to the user.

  • ACCESS_ROLE_UNSPECIFIED
  • ACCESS_ROLE_PRODUCER: Producer role for the user.
  • ACCESS_ROLE_CONSUMER: Consumer role for the user.
  • ACCESS_ROLE_ADMIN: Admin role for the user.

allowHosts[]

string

Lists hosts allowed for this permission.
Only ip-addresses allowed as value of single host.
When not defined, access from any host is allowed.

Bare in mind that the same host might appear in multiple permissions at the same time,
hence removing individual permission doesn't automatically restricts access from the allowHosts of the permission.
If the same host(s) is listed for another permission of the same principal/topic, the host(s) remains allowed.

operation.Operation
