Lookup File Editor App: How can a Splunk user with only a user role make changes to existing CSV files?

[VeEn]

Hi,

We have the problem that we want Splunk users to be able to change existing CSV files, but every time a user with a user role wants to change a field, the editor returns the forbidden-error, even if the user created the file.

So far I tried fidgeting with the rights of the path and the specific file, but without any effect.

Is there some configuration wrong or is there a way to achieve this?

Best regards,
Verena

You should be able to grant access via default or local.meta in the metadata folder. For instance, the following would allow write access to admins and the group mySplunkEditorGroup for all objects as part of an app.

[]
access = read : [ * ], write : [admin,mySplunkEditorGroup]
export = system

It was default.meta and it works. Thanks!
