Hello,

I am a sc_admin for my splunk cloud instance and I recently installed the CrowdStrike Falcon Event Streams Technical Add-On on the cloud instance. But when I gave permission to the end user to check and configure he is unable to see the page,  this is the error page he is getting. Only the thing that he is not admin but a power user. Can any one help in this?

Hey @ankit86,

Can you please elaborate more on what permissions you gave to the user? Was it read/write permissions from the Manage Apps page? If so, that wouldn't help the user to view the configuration page of the Add-on. In order to launch and configure the TA, it is mandatory to have the sc_admin role. However, if you need to restrict the users from getting sc_admin role, you can consider creating a new role with edit_local_apps, install_apps, admin_all_object, rest_properties_get, rest_properties_set, rest_apps_management, rest_apps_view capabilities. This should help the user to configure and edit the add-ons as per the organization requirement.

 

Thanks,
Tejas.

I would be very careful giving user admin_all_objects or the sc_admin role...! This basically gives them admin to the entire instance which I dont think is the user's intention.
