Databases

List Databases

The List Databases operation (/databridge/v1/sql-instances/{instanceName}/databases) returns information about databases on the specified managed server instance including information about its size, status, and owner.

Access to information about databases (EDMs, RDMs, and custom databases) hosted on Data Bridge is managed by means of tenant security and role-based permissions. Tenant security enables organizations to segregate data and limit access based on business need. If enabled, tenant security limits access to managed databases based on group membership. Secured servers and databases can only be accessed by their owners or by groups explicitly granted access to those resources.

This operation now supports an optional adminaccess query parameter, which enables Data Bridge Admin role to view a complete list of databases regardless of ownership or tenant security access controls.

curl --request GET \
     --url https://api-euw1.rms.com/databridge/v1/sql-instances/89/Databases?adminaccess=true \
     --header 'accept: application/json'

This parameter is optional. If unspecified, a value of false is assumed. A value of true must be specified to view information about all databases on the server. The data returned depends on two factors: 1) tenant security and 2) role of the client application.

Tenant security is an optional Data Bridge feature that must be enabled by a Data Admin. If tenant security is not enabled, client applications can generally view all databases regardless of role. To learn more, see Tenant Security

Data Bridge supports three roles: Data Bridge Admin, Consumer, and Contributor. To learn more, see Access Controls.

  • Client applications assigned the Data Bridge Admin role that pass a value of true in the adminaccess query parameter can view all databases on the specified server. If the parameter is false or undefined, the API returns information only about databases that are accessible to that client application.
  • Client applications assigned the Consumer or Contributor role cannot view all databases. If a Consumer or Contributor client passes a value of true in the adminaccess query parameter, the API returns a 403 Forbidden response.
