Cloud Pak for Data

Hi All,

I am new to a project based on IBM CP4D and working as a systems admin. I realized that users are assigned CP4D predefined roles in their generic forms which is ok if the user is a Data Scientist, for example and is assigned a Data scientist role with all the permissions in it. My concern however, is when a Data Scientist has need for some permissions from a Data Steward's Role, what I have seen is that, they are assigned the entire Data Steward Role which has more than the required permissions the Data scientist needs. That to me, could pose compliance problems. So, my question is, is it possible to create, in this particular example, an additional granular role for the Data Scientist that contains just the specific permission(s) they need from the Data Steward's Role?

Thank You

Hi Rome:

Yes, to meet the needs of your organization the Cloud Pak for Data administrator can customize the out-of-the-box roles by editing their permissions or create additional roles.

Cheers,
Josh

Is there an audit log when changes are made?

Hi Enrique:

Unfortunately, we don't have a full audit log yet, but it's something we're looking at for a future release.

Cheers,
Josh
