User Access

Granting users access to the app

There are three application roles that are used for authorization within the app:

TRANSFER_APP_ADMIN_ROLE
TRANSFER_APP_AUTHOR_ROLE
TRANSFER_APP_USER_ROLE

Users who will only be uploading files should be granted the user role. The author role is for data engineers that will be setting up and configuring transfers. These can be granted to normal snowflake roles as shown below.

grant application role TRANSFER_APP_USER_ROLE to role business_user_role;
grant application role TRANSFER_APP_author_ROLE to role data_engineer_role;
grant application role TRANSFER_APP_admin_ROLE to role sf_admin_role;
