If you require additional users for the Azkaban dashboard or API, other than the default users, you can add them following this process:
Create Azkaban accounts by editing the azkaban-users.xml file in the Web Server install directory, any changes to the settings in this file will not take effect until the Azkaban Web Server is restarted.
<web_server_dir>\<server_name>\azkaban-users.xml
For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <azkaban-users> <role name="admin" permissions="ADMIN"/> <role name="read" permissions="READ"/> <role name="executor" permissions="EXECUTE"/> <user username="admin" password="admin" roles="admin"/> <user username="readonly" password="readonly" roles="read"/> <user username="executor" password="executor" roles="executor,read"/> </azkaban-users> |
The possible role permissions are the following:
| Permissions | Values |
|---|---|
| ADMIN | Grants all access to everything in Azkaban. |
| READ | Gives users read-only access to every project and their logs |
| WRITE | Allows users to upload files, change job properties, or remove any project |
| EXECUTE | Allows users to trigger the execution of any flow |
| SCHEDULE | Users can add or remove schedules for any flows |
| CREATEPROJECTS | Allows users to create new projects if project creation is locked down |
