Role to only upload data file via the GUI

[Alaza]

Hello,

I need a restrict role for only upload data file.

I add this capability :

edit_monitor - Required to make the "Add Data" option show up in the settings menu.
indexes_edit - Required to make the users index name show up in the Indexes drop down when uploading the file.
edit_tcp - Required to get the file to actually upload. Without this capability the file upload would hang.
search - Required so the user can preview the uploaded file.

But the settings are not visible then.

The goal is to create a limited access account with only the rigth to upload data, nothing else.

Is it possible ?

Thanks for your help.

A better solution would be to use the Universal forwarder to monitor a drop folder on a machine they can access. They can just drop data files there as needed and have it get pulled in and indexed.
Setting data inputs up including one shot uploads is more an administrative function and dangerous to give end users.

Anyhow - 

I have tried adding edit_monitor after cloning user role then I can see Add Data from settings and when I clicked on add data I can see only monitor option not upload option.
