Configuring security for data imports

The following permissions are required to operate on Siren-managed indices, which you can configure on the ACL tab of the Access control app:

Action on entity table	Permission required
Add, rename field	Change permission on entity table object.
Delete field	Delete permission on entity table object.
Import data	Import permission on entity table object.
Delete data, index, entity table object	Delete permission on entity table object.

Action on entity table

Permission required

Add, rename field

Change permission on entity table object.

Delete field

Delete permission on entity table object.

Import data

Import permission on entity table object.

Delete data, index, entity table object

Delete permission on entity table object.

If the entity table is based on a standard (not Siren-managed) Elasticsearch index, then you must configure the relevant Elasticsearch permissions on the index, such as the ability to get mapping, delete an index, re-index, and create a temporary index. For more information, see Index management in the Elasticsearch documentation.
