Register Repository Users

Prerequisites

Database credentials for the user are stored in either AWS Secrets Manager or Azure Key Vault.

Registering a repository user enables ALTR’s sidecar to access database credentials, which are used when data consumers access repositories using single sign-on.

To register repository users:

Log into ALTR via Okta.
Select Data Configuration → Data Sources in the Navigation menu.
Click the Repositories tab.
Click the repository.
Click the Users tab.
Click Register Repository User.
Enter the repository username in Username. This is the username for the relevant database credential.
Select the Secret Source. Options are:
- AWS Secrets Manager
- Azure Key Vault
Populate applicable fields. These are copied directly from the secret source:
1. AWS Secrets Manager: Enter the Amazon Resource Name (ARN)
2. Azure Key Vault: Enter the Secret Name and the Vault URI
Click Register User.

Warning

Installed sidecars

using AWS Secrets Manager must have IAM access to the AWS secrets.
using Azure Key Vault must have identity available to it, can authenticate to the key vault and have access to the secret.

Contact ALTR Support if you need assistance.
