MLM API queries and user permissions

Robert_Yohn — Tue, 23 May 2023 14:25:17 GMT

Hello all,

I have an MDS (R81.10 JHF 87) with several CMAs and 2 MLMs. We have someone that wants to view firewall logs using API calls and want to login using an API key. Is it possible to setup this user only on our MLMs with an API key and read only access?

The API is executed against the CMA/Domain, not the MLM, and users must be defined there.
(The logs API call should still work even if an MLM is used)
However, it is possible to configure a user with an API Key and access to the logs per relevant permission profile.
