I am using access control on Jenkins with openid plugin. Users are authenticated through Google account.
But i also need to have users created on Jenkins internally. i.e role based access control.
Is there a way to configure Jenkins to make it possible to use multiple access control mechanisms at the same time ? Currently i can only select one.
Any plugins to make it possible ?
No, your users need a google apps account to login.
But that shouldn't be a problem with https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Role+Strategy+Plugin

Is there a way to add agents to my Flex project without single sign on enabled? Our business model requires us to connect clients with agents who are independent contractors. From both a practical and legal standpoint, we can't provide them with something like an Active Directory or Gmail account.
When I add agents "locally", the lowest level of access I can grant to an agent is developer. This role allows agents to make changes to our underlying application.
Is there a way to grant users access as agents without SSO? If there is no way to do this through the UI, I am open to a solution that requires a custom JavaScript / React plugin.
I talked to Twilio support and non-SSO agent assignment is not an option
What is the benefit of implementing Active Directory based Security to servers like Jenkins?
The only benefit I can think is the admin of the sever does not need to add/remove users because user can login themselves using AD credential.
But In my case I do not want to have the whole company access my server. the server is only used by my team. How can I disable the whole company from login in. (case1)
Besides, I want to grant different permissions to different members in my team. The new members get less permission, the experienced team members get more permissions. I believe this is very common. But using Active Directory based Security looks like they get the same permission because they are in the same groups (case2)
So why should I use Active Directory based Security? Can I resolve the above two cases in a server configured with Active Directory based Security?
Some corporate environments make this a security requirement. In said environments they usually have an internal request system where users can request they have their credentials added to an appropriate group for access to Jenkins. This is better than Jenkins own database and having them email you, the Jenkins administrator.
Once AD Authentication is configured in Jenkins and appropriate groups created in AD you can do a one-time setup of those groups with the Role-Based Strategy plugin in Jenkins and define what those groups have authorization to do.
Plan your groups well and it is a function that you will no longer have to worry about.
Warning: Be very careful when switching over from Jenkins own database user authentication to AD authentication. If you don't get the BindDN details just right you can get locked out.
I have developed a TFS web extension. I have some auxiliary data that I've placed on a separate page, which is currently accessed from a hub. I want to restrict access to that data so that it can only be changed by people with certain permissions (e.g. only people who have the "Manage project properties" set to Allow).
Both hubs were created by following these instructions, but it doesn't seem to mention how to restrict access to the hub.
According to this, I can't restrict access to a hub group, and it sounds like this may also apply to a hub.
Is it possible to hide the hub based on the user's permissions? If not, what are my options for restricting access to the auxiliary data?
Yes, this is also apply to a hub. At the code level, as a extension author, you could not limit your extensions' access to specific users or groups.
For now, there is also no way to specify the users or groups to access the installed extension in web portal or server side (expect the priced).
There has been a related user voice, you could vote and follow up, TFS PM will kindly review the suggestion.
VSTS extension restrict for specified users or groups
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/330519-visual-studio-team-services/suggestions/32926549-vsts-extension-restrict-for-specified-users-or-gro
One way maybe work: if a user doesn't have access to the various data that the extension pulls from TFS/VSTS, they will have parts of this extension not work. However, you could not hide the extension and its link entirely for a user by now.
How can I add a limited access account for jenkins automation when I'm using Global GitHub OAuth Settings?
I'm using GitHub OAth for login to jenkins and I have python jenkinsapi scripts that I want to run as a user with read only access. At present, all my users are github users.
I can create a github account without access to my repositories and then limit that accounts access to jenkins but this seems cumbersome.
Is there a way to use multiple security realms or to create local users?
It seems that when jenkins contains a local user, that the plugin uses this first (plugin-source)
If you look at Manage Jenkins->Configure Global Security, you can see that you can select only one security realm.
I would say, for Jenkins use create a github service account specifically that user can be restricted to just a few repositories. You can also look at matrix based security or project based matrix security if you want to restrict authorization further
I have currently set up a web-based application, to which I have added an authentication method using oauth2_proxy (with gitlab as authentication provider). What I need to know is if there's way that I can restrict the access to this app using a Gitlab group or something like that? Because as of now - oauth is configured to allow access to any user on gitlab which has a #foor.bar email domain (-email-domain=foo.bar directive on oauth config). However I'm looking to control this method in a more restricted manner, so for instance I will create a group on Gitlab, to which I will add only relevant users & other groups to which access should be granted. Is there a way to do it?
Not sure if it's what you're looking for but regards documentation you could use --authenticated-emails-file param to provide authenticated emails list.
