IoTDB Permissions

MRS supports users, user groups, and roles. Permissions must be assigned to roles and then roles are bound to users or user groups. Users can obtain permissions only by binding a role or joining a group that is bound with a role.

Note

In security mode, you need to manage IoTDB permissions and add the created user to the iotdbgroup user group. In normal mode, IoTDB permission management is not required.

IoTDB Permission List

The Name column in Table 1 lists the permissions supported by open-source IoTDB. If an MRS user needs to use corresponding permissions to perform operations, grant the permissions to the user on Manager by referring to the Required Permission column. For details, see Creating an IoTDB Role.

Name

Description

Required Permission

Example

SET_STORAGE_GROUP

Used for creating a storage group, including setting permissions for the storage group and setting or canceling its time to live (TTL).

Set StorageGroup

Example 1: set storage group to root.ln;

Example 2: set ttl to root.ln 3600000;

Example 3: unset ttl to root.ln;

CREATE_TIMESERIES

Used for creating a time series.

Create

Example 1: Creating a time series

create timeseries root.ln.wf02.status with datatype=BOOLEAN,encoding=PLAIN;

Example 2: Creating an aligned time series

create aligned timeseries root.ln.device1(latitude FLOAT encoding=PLAIN compressor=SNAPPY, longitude FLOAT encoding=PLAIN compressor=SNAPPY);

INSERT_TIMESERIES

Used for inserting data.

Write

Example 1: insert into root.ln.wf02(timestamp,status) values(1,true);

Example 2: insert into root.sg1.d1(time, s1, s2) aligned values(1, 1, 1);

ALTER_TIMESERIES

Used for modifying a time series, and adding attributes and tags.

Alter

Example 1: alter timeseries root.turbine.d1.s1 ADD TAGS tag3=v3, tag4=v4;

Example 2: ALTER timeseries root.turbine.d1.s1 UPSERT ALIAS=newAlias TAGS(tag2=newV2, tag3=v3) ATTRIBUTES(attr3=v3, attr4=v4);

READ_TIMESERIES

Used for querying data.

Read

Example 1: show storage group;

Example 2: show child paths root.ln, show child nodes root.ln;

Example 3: show devices;

Example 4: show timeseries root.**;

Example 5: show all ttl;

Example 6: Querying data

select * from root.ln.**;

Example 7: Querying performance tracing

tracing select * from root.**;

Example 8: Querying the UDF

select example(*) from root.sg.d1;

Example 9: Querying statistics

count devices;

DELETE_TIMESERIES

Used for deleting data or time series.

Delete

Example 1: Deleting a time series

delete timeseries root.ln.wf01.wt01.status;

Example 2: Deleting data

delete from root.ln.wf02.wt02.status where time < 10;

DELETE_STORAGE_GROUP

Used for deleting a storage group.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example: delete storage group root.ln;

CREATE_FUNCTION

Used for registering a UDF.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example: create function example AS 'org.apache.iotdb.udf.UDTFExample';

DROP_FUNCTION

Used for deregistering a UDF.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example: drop function example;

UPDATE_TEMPLATE

Used for creating, deleting, and modifying metadata templates.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example 1: create schema template t1(s1 int32);

READ_TEMPLATE

Used for viewing all metadata templates and metadata template content.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example 1: show schema templates;

Example 2: show nodes in template t1;

APPLY_TEMPLATE

Used for attaching, detaching, and activating a metadata template.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example 1: set schema template t1 to root.sg.d;

Example 2: create timeseries of schema template on root.sg.d;

READ_TEMPLATE_APPLICATION

Used for viewing the path for attaching or activating the metadata template.

IoTDB Admin Privilege

Example 1: show paths set schema template t1;

Example 2: show paths using schema template t1;
