Role-based access control in Grafana Cloud k6

Role-based access control (RBAC) is now available in Grafana Cloud k6!

With the new Performance Testing roles available in your Grafana Cloud stack, you get fine-grained control over what a User or Team can do in the k6 Performance Testing application, regardless of their Grafana Stack role.

By default, your Stack role (Admin, Editor, or Viewer) is used as the default for your Grafana Cloud k6 RBAC roles. Most of the k6 Performance Testing application access will work the same (see here for the differences) until you dive in and customize your RBAC configuration to fit your exact needs.

Some new capabilities include:

  • Performance Testing application controls, such as who can manipulate testing environment variables, create new testing projects, and set up testing schedules.
  • Per-project controls for limiting who can start performance tests, view test results, and set project usage quotas. That gives you fine-grained control over who in a testing project can use its resources.

To learn more, refer to the Configure RBAC documentation.
