Granting Permissions to Users or Groups
Use the post /v1/cckm/google/key-rings/{id}/update-acls
API to grant permissions to users or groups to perform specified operations on a Google Cloud key ring with a given ID on the CipherTrust Manager.
User ID and group are mutually exclusive – specify either. For the first time users or groups, actions are permitted as configured by the CCKM administrator. However, if the permissions of a user or group need to be modified later, for example, a new action is to be permitted or an existing action is to be revoked, the CCKM administrator needs to set that particular action to true
or false
.
For example, a user or group is permitted actions, keycreate
and keyupdate
. Now, to permit one more action keydestroy
to the user or group, set "permit":true
and "actions": "keydestroy"
and run the API. Similarly, now to deny permission to the action keycreate
, set "permit":false
, "actions": "keycreate"
, and run the API.
Refer to Actions for actions supported by different APIs.
Syntax
Here, {id}
represents the resource ID of the Google key ring on the CipherTrust Manager.
