How to add a Data Stewardship user

Talend Administration Center allows you to define Data Stewardship users and assign them predefined roles. This makes the user list accessible from Talend Data Stewardship where users can be assigned to specific campaigns and tasks.

These users can either be related to Talend Data Stewardship only, or to hybrid projects with both Data Stewardship and other project types (Data Management for example).

To perform this action via the MetaServlet application, use the createUser command and define the tds and tdsRoles arguments. For more information about the MetaServlet parameters, see Parameters and actions in metaServlet.

How to add a user with Data Stewardship type

Before you begin

About this task

Procedure

  1. On the Users page, click Add to create a new Data Stewardship user account.

How to add a hybrid Data Stewardship user

Before you begin

Your license includes Data Stewardship user types.

About this task

This type of user cannot be assigned to a Data Stewardship user group type, but it can be assigned to the user group type corresponding to its own user type (a hybrid Data Stewardship/Data Management user can be assigned to a Data Management user group, for example). For more information on user groups, see Grouping users by user type.

Procedure

  1. On the Users page, click Add to create a new Data Stewardship user account.
  2. In the Data panel to the right, fill in the information as described in the previous procedure, but select in the Type field the type of project the Data Stewardship user will be working on depending on the license (Data Integration/ESB, Data Management or Master Data Management).
    Note that if you enabled the Role Mapping option in the SSO node of the Configuration page, these fields might be automatically filled. For more information, see Enabling SSO.
  3. Click Save to validate the creation of the new user.
