Splunk Enterprise

splunk - get all users

Observer

I created a role with the capabilities 'edit_license' and 'edit_user', but I didn't receive all the users from the GET request to the URL: /services/authentication/users?output_mode=json. It only returned part of the users. Without the role 'edit_license', I received the following error:

"messages": [ { "type": "ERROR", "text": "Unauthorized" } ]

What are the minimum permissions required to retrieve all users, and does anyone know if this is the same for Splunk Cloud?

Hi

maybe this hits your fingers?

This limits what you can see and set.

On cloud you cannot see all users as some of those are restricted for only Splunk's own use.
