ActionTrail:Grant permissions to a RAM user

You can authorize RAM users to access and use ActionTrail. For example, RAM users that are granted the required permissions can query events and manage trails and event alerts.

1. Log on to the RAM console.
2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Identities > Users.
3. On the Users page, find the RAM user to which you want to grant permissions and click Add Permissions in the Actions column.
4. In the Add Permissions panel, set the Authorized Scope parameter to Alibaba Cloud Account and select one or more policies.
   • System Policy: the system policies. To specify system policies, select the required policies in the Authorization Policy Name column.

     Policy	Description
     AliyunActionTrailReadOnlyAccess	Provides read-only permissions on ActionTrail.
     AliyunActionTrailFullAccess	Provides full permissions on ActionTrail.
     AliyunOSSReadOnlyAccess	Provides read-only permissions on Object Storage Service (OSS).
     AliyunLogReadOnlyAccess	Provides read-only permissions on Log Service.

   • Custom Policy: the custom policies. To specify custom policies, select the required policies in the Authorization Policy Name column.

     For information about how to create a custom policy, see Create a custom policy.

     • Example 1: Grant a RAM user full permissions on ActionTrail and the permissions to view OSS buckets and Log Service projects. This way, the RAM user has the permissions to manage trails.

       The following sample code shows the custom policy:

       {
           "Version": "1",
           "Statement": [
               {
                   "Action": [
                       "actiontrail:*",
                       "oss:GetService",
                       "log:ListProject"
                   ],
                   "Resource": "*",
                   "Effect": "Allow"
               }
           ]
       }
                               

       The following table describes the permissions included in the custom policy.

       Action	Description
       oss:GetService	Allows a RAM user to view OSS buckets.
       log:ListProject	Allows a RAM user to view Log Service projects.
       actiontrail:*	Provides full access to ActionTrail.

     • Example 2: Grant a RAM user the permissions to manage trails in ActionTrail and the permissions to manage Logstores, indexes, dashboards, charts, and projects in Log Service. This way, the RAM user has the permissions to manage event alerts.

       The following sample code shows the custom policy:

       { 
           "Version": "1", 
           "Statement": [
             {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
              "actiontrail:DescribeTrails",
              "actiontrail:SetDefaultTrail",
              "actiontrail:GetDefaultTrail",
              "actiontrail:CreateTrail"
            ],

              "log:UpdateIndex"
            ],
            "Resource": [
              "acs:log:*:*:project/Project name/logstore/internal-alert-history",
              "acs:log:*:*:project/sls-alert-*/logstore/internal-alert-center-log"
            ]   
            },
          {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
              "log:CreateDashboard",
              "log:CreateChart",
              "log:UpdateDashboard"
            ],
            "Resource": "acs:log:*:*:project/Project name/dashboard/*"
          },
          {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
              "log:*"
            ],
            "Resource": "acs:log:*:*:project/Project name/job/*"   
            },
          {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
              "log:CreateProject"
            ],
            "Resource": [
              "acs:log:*:*:project/sls-alert-*"
            ]
