User access

Lenses provides data and application centric security via permissions on groups of users.

LDAP, Active Directory and Single-Sign-On provide user authentication and group management, while Kerberos provides only user authentication, but no group management.

Authentication

When working with LDAP or Active Directory, user and group management is done in LDAP.

Lenses provides fine-grained role-based access (RBAC) for your existing groups of users over data and applications. Create a group in Lenses with the same name (case-sensitive) as in LDAP/AD:

Lenses.io add an LDAP group to your DataOps platform

And set permissions. See how to configure LDAP.

When using an SSO solution such as Azure AD, Google, Okta, OneLogin or an open source like KeyCloak user and group management is done in the Identity Provider.

Lenses provides fine-grained role-based access (RBAC) for your existing groups of users over data and applications. Create a group in Lenses with the same name (case-sensitive) as in your SSO group.
