Configure RBAC in Grafana
Note: Available in Grafana Enterprise and Grafana Cloud Advanced.
The table below describes all RBAC configuration options. Like any other Grafana configuration, you can apply these options as environment variables.
Setting | Required | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
permission_cache | No | Enable to use in memory cache for loading and evaluating users’ permissions. | true |
permission_validation_enabled | No | Grafana enforces validation for permissions when a user creates or updates a role. The system checks the internal list of scopes and actions for each permission to determine they are valid. By default, if a scope or action is not recognized, Grafana logs a warning message. When set to true , Grafana returns an error. | false |
reset_basic_roles | No | Reset Grafana’s basic roles’ (Viewer, Editor, Admin, Grafana Admin) permissions to their default. Warning, if this configuration option is left to true this will be done on every reboot. | true |
