User Roles and Privileges Reference
Cloudera Navigator lets authenticated users—those who have successfully logged in to Cloudera Navigator console—access features and functionality according to specifically assigned user roles. The Cloudera Navigator user role scheme requires the use of an external LDAP-compliant identity-directory service, such as OpenLDAP or Microsoft Server Active Directory. See Cloudera Navigator Authentication Overview for details.
After users have been assigned to various groups in the external LDAP-compliant identity-directory service, Cloudera Navigator administrators can grant user roles to various groups as needed. See Administering User Roles for details.
Information about user roles and the specific privileges to Cloudera Navigator is contained in the high-level summary and detailed matrix below.
