Monitoring Splunk

Capability needed to list forwarder deployment

Hi!

I haven't gotten to the bottom of what permissions are needed for different actions. We would like to give someone with the 'user' role, to be able to access this page, in a read-only manner.

"app/splunk_monitoring_console/forwarder_deployment"

This, by making a new role that is dedicated to this purpose.
Is this possible? I see 'list_forwarders' is permitted from user. 

"Monitoring" or "console" does not give much hits in the list.

You may be able to set the appropriate dashboard's permissions to allow a new role to have access, but the role will also need access to the _internal index.
