ControlUp Delegated Permission Configuration for Automation and Triggers

The user suggested delegation of permission for automation and triggering of ControlUp resources. This is a current feature request, but there is no ETA at the moment. Looking at the Security Policy in ControlUp 8.6.5, it’s possible to create a new role with a selection of permissions and per script, define the folder role that can run different scripts. The user was also looking for a read-only option for incident triggers and hoped it would be available soon.

It would be nice to have delegated permission configuration for automation and triggering. This would allow ControlUp “power users” to create or view the configured triggers not being a CU admin. It is quite important in Enterprise space when if we want to encourage a dozen IT teams to adopt advanced monitoring and automation.

This can already be done as far as I know. I can build a security permission with only. The rights to work with script actions.

That’s great. ControlUp Support advise me today this is a current feature request in future releases of ControlUp but there is no ETA at this time. #00080874

Can we get connected offline to get the required permission configuration?

To double check : are you talking about Realtime DX or Edge DX?

No, on premises 8.6.5

So if look in the security policy I can create a new role that only has a selection of these permissions

and than per script you can define per folder what role is allowed to run what scripts

so now I have a role power users that only has these permissions unless they are also member of another role

so in the ticket I see you also asked for read-only and that’s indeed something we cannot do at the moment but we can certainly give permissions to work on triggers only without needing everything

I will ask the support engineer to update you 🙂

Yes, you are absolutely right. You helped me bring back some old memory. I should’ve checked myself. 🙂 The option “View Incident Triggers” (read only) will be an important permission for visibility and validation based on the new RACI. Hope it will be available soon.
