Hi all,
I'm trying to an app that has several dynamic dashboards. I want to give users read-only access to these dashboard. The problem I'm running into is that the dashboard is running with higher permissions than I want to give the user. In particular, I have dropdowns on each dashboard that use DBConnect to poll which options a user have access to.
Is there a way that I can give a user read-only access to a dashboard while still giving the dynamic dropdowns the permissions they need?
Hopefully this makes sense, but I'm happy to provide more details if need be. Thanks!
I've decided the best way to do this is to revoke their access to Splunk's search app and give them read-only access to other appropriate apps. This means they can't edit the dashboard and they only get to interact with the dropdowns on the front end.

Can you index the data so that the user is accessing an index instead of the raw command?
Unfortunately no. The query I want to run is below:
| rest /services/authentication/current-context/context
| eval user_Name=username
| map search="dbquery myDB limit=1000 \"SELECT email, databaseName, serverName FROM userAccessTable WHERE email LIKE '$username$@%'\""
So, basically, get the list of databases/servers that a user has access to.
