8.5.9. Redis users

Notes:

  • System user "Default" is for connecting to Redis by password only, without a login or with a login of a non-existent user. Suitable for use in older clients that only support password authorization.
  • You can connect to Redis without a password, but without authorization the data will not be available.

Users are managed in the "Redis" section on the "Users" tab:

Create

  1. On the "Users" tab, click "Create user".
  2. Enter login and password, select privileges (see Configuring privileges) and click "Create":

Change password

Attention!

User passwords are not stored publicly on the hosting. If you lose your password, you can only set a new one.
  1. On the "Users" tab, in the user row, click 📝.
  2. Specify a new password and click "Change".

Configure privileges

When own privileges are set, the options "Access to data" and "Access to Pub/Sub" do not apply.
  1. On the "Users" tab, in the user row, click 📝.
  2. Select the privileges and click "Change".
    • "Access to data" — ability to read and write data by keys.
    • "Access to Pub/Sub" — ability to use the Redis Pub/Sub event subscription system.
    • "ACL SETUSER" — own privileges (see ACL SETUSER):
      • Specified without ACL SETUSER and username at the beginning, e.g. resetkeys &* +publish +subscribe.
