Install and authenticate the Rill CLI​

To manage cloud permissions with the Rill CLI, you must first authenticate it. If you have not already done so, run:

rill login

Creating the User group​

You can create a new user group by running the following and following the CLI instructions:

rill usergroup create

You will be prompted for the new user group name.

Adding permissions to the group​

Next, you will need to add the roles and access to the user group.

rill usergroup add --project <project_name>

      --group string     User group
      --org string       Organization (default "Rill_Learn")
      --project string   Project
      --role string      Role of the user group (options: admin, viewer)

You will be prompted for the role and the name of the group you are editing. If you want to specify a specific project, please use the --project flag. If no project flag is defined, you will be setting permission on the organization level.

  • Viewers can view the project's dashboards
  • Admins can additionally edit the project, and view and edit project members

Add a member to the group​

To add a member to the user group, run the following command:

rill user add --group <group_name>

You will be prompted for the email address for the user.

Once added, you can confirm the user group by running the following command:

rill user list --group <group_name>

Other actions​

Run rill usergroup --help to show commands for listing members or changing access.

note

Currently, users outside of the organization are unable to be added to usergroups.
