Aiven Identity is an integrated identity management system on Aiven Platform that you can use to restrict access to your Aiven Runtime applications.

When you enable Aiven Identity on an application, any organization user with the any access to the project can access the application. This includes users with read only access.

Required roles or permissions:role:project:admin, role:project:manager, project:services:write, or service:configuration:write

  2. Click Add authentication method.
  3. Select Aiven Identity.
  4. Click Add.

Remove Aiven Identity from an application​

You can remove Aiven Identity from your Aiven Runtime application at any time. To use Aiven Identity again later, you can add it back to the application.

  3. Select Aiven Identity and click Next.
  4. Click Remove.
