By creating or updating user accounts and assigning them to appropriate groups, administrators can ensure that the right people can access the data they need to do their jobs. This helps to avoid confusion or conflicts over who is responsible for specific datasets and can improve the overall effectiveness. ### Goal Of This Guide This guide will show you how to - Create: create or update users and groups. - Read: read owners attached to a dataset. - Add: add user group as an owner to a dataset. - Remove: remove the owner from a dataset. ## Pre-requisites For this tutorial, you need to deploy DataHub Quickstart and ingest sample data. For detailed information, please refer to [Datahub Quickstart Guide](/docs/quickstart.md). :::note In this guide, ingesting sample data is optional. ::: ## Upsert Users Save this `user.yaml` as a local file. ```yaml - id: bar@acryl.io first_name: The last_name: Bar email: bar@acryl.io slack: "@the_bar_raiser" description: "I like raising the bar higher" groups: - foogroup@acryl.io - id: datahub slack: "@datahubproject" phone: "1-800-GOT-META" description: "The DataHub Project" picture_link: "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/datahub/master/datahub-web-react/src/images/datahub-logo-color-stable.svg" ``` Execute the following CLI command to ingest user data. Since the user datahub already exists in the sample data, any updates made to the user information will overwrite the existing data. ``` datahub user upsert -f user.yaml ``` If you see the following logs, the operation was successful: ```shell Update succeeded for urn urn:li:corpuser:bar@acryl.io. Update succeeded for urn urn:li:corpuser:datahub. ``` ```python {{ inline /metadata-ingestion/examples/library/upsert_user.py show_path_as_comment }} ``` ### Expected Outcomes of Upserting User You can see the user `The bar` has been created and the user `Datahub` has been updated under `Settings > Access > Users & Groups`

## Upsert Group Save this `group.yaml` as a local file. Note that the group includes a list of users who are owners and members. Within these lists, you can refer to the users by their ids or their urns, and can additionally specify their metadata inline within the group description itself. See the example below to understand how this works and feel free to make modifications to this file locally to see the effects of your changes in your local DataHub instance. ```yaml id: foogroup@acryl.io display_name: Foo Group owners: - datahub members: - bar@acryl.io # refer to a user either by id or by urn - id: joe@acryl.io # inline specification of user slack: "@joe_shmoe" display_name: "Joe's Hub" ``` Execute the following CLI command to ingest this group's information. ``` datahub group upsert -f group.yaml ``` If you see the following logs, the operation was successful: ```shell Update succeeded for group urn:li:corpGroup:foogroup@acryl.io. ``` ```python {{ inline /metadata-ingestion/examples/library/upsert_group.py show_path_as_comment }} ``` ### Expected Outcomes of Upserting Group You can see the group `Foo Group` has been created under `Settings > Access > Users & Groups`

## Read Owners ```json query { dataset(urn: "urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,SampleHiveDataset,PROD)") { ownership { owners { owner { ... on CorpUser { urn type } ... on CorpGroup { urn type } } } } } } ``` If you see the following response, the operation was successful: ```json { "data": { "dataset": { "ownership": { "owners": [ { "owner": { "urn": "urn:li:corpuser:jdoe", "type": "CORP_USER" } }, { "owner": { "urn": "urn:li:corpuser:datahub", "type": "CORP_USER" } } ] } } }, "extensions": {} } ``` ```shell curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8080/api/graphql' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer ' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "query": "{ dataset(urn: \"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,SampleHiveDataset,PROD)\") { ownership { owners { owner { ... on CorpUser { urn type } ... on CorpGroup { urn type } } } } } }", "variables":{}}' ``` Expected Response: ```json { "data": { "dataset": { "ownership": { "owners": [ { "owner": { "urn": "urn:li:corpuser:jdoe", "type": "CORP_USER" } }, { "owner": { "urn": "urn:li:corpuser:datahub", "type": "CORP_USER" } } ] } } }, "extensions": {} } ``` ```python {{ inline /metadata-ingestion/examples/library/dataset_query_owners.py show_path_as_comment }} ``` ## Add Owners ```python mutation addOwners { addOwner( input: { ownerUrn: "urn:li:corpGroup:bfoo", resourceUrn: "urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_created,PROD)", ownerEntityType: CORP_GROUP, type: TECHNICAL_OWNER } ) } ``` Expected Response: ```python { "data": { "addOwner": true }, "extensions": {} } ``` ```shell curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8080/api/graphql' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer ' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "query": "mutation addOwners { addOwner(input: { ownerUrn: \"urn:li:corpGroup:bfoo\", resourceUrn: \"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_created,PROD)\", ownerEntityType: CORP_GROUP, type: TECHNICAL_OWNER }) }", "variables":{}}' ``` ```python {{ inline /metadata-ingestion/examples/library/dataset_add_owner.py show_path_as_comment }} ``` ## Expected Outcomes of Adding Owner You can now see `bfoo` has been added as an owner to the `fct_users_created` dataset.

## Remove Owners ```json mutation removeOwners { removeOwner( input: { ownerUrn: "urn:li:corpuser:jdoe", resourceUrn: "urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hdfs,SampleHdfsDataset,PROD)", } ) } ``` Note that you can also remove owners from multiple entities or subresource using `batchRemoveOwners`. ```json mutation batchRemoveOwners { batchRemoveOwners( input: { ownerUrns: ["urn:li:corpuser:jdoe"], resources: [ { resourceUrn:"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hdfs,SampleHdfsDataset,PROD)"} , { resourceUrn:"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hive,fct_users_created,PROD)"} ,] } ) } ``` Expected Response: ```python { "data": { "removeOwner": true }, "extensions": {} } ``` ```shell curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8080/api/graphql' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer ' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "query": "mutation removeOwner { removeOwner(input: { ownerUrn: \"urn:li:corpuser:jdoe\", resourceUrn: \"urn:li:dataset:(urn:li:dataPlatform:hdfs,SampleHdfsDataset,PROD)\" }) }", "variables":{}}' ``` ```python {{ inline /metadata-ingestion/examples/library/dataset_remove_owner_execute_graphql.py show_path_as_comment }} ``` ### Expected Outcomes of Removing Owners You can now see `John Doe` has been removed as an owner from the `fct_users_created` dataset.
