Enable topic role inheritance

Service integration bus security uses role-based authorization. When messaging security, and topic level security are enabled, and users and groups require access in the sender and receiver roles to access a topic in a publish/subscribe topic hierarchy. By default, topics inherit these roles from the parent topic. If you want topic role inheritance has been disabled for a particular topic, you can restore it by using the admin console. Verify the following conditions are met:

• Messaging security is enabled. See Disable bus security.

• Topic level security is enabled for the topic space. Check the setting Topic Access Check Required? in the topic space destination configuration. See Configure bus destination properties.

In this task you use the admin console to restore topic role inheritance for selected topics. A topic can only inherit the sender and receiver roles from the parent topic in the topic hierarchy.

1. Log into the admin console.

2. Click Service integration -> Buses -> security_value -> [Authorization Policy] Manage topic access roles -> topic_space_name > topic_name . The Topic access roles panel lists users and groups that have been assigned role types for the selected topic.
