Permissions for users connecting to the integration node

If you are using any IBM® Integration Bus functions that require access to WebSphere® MQ, additional permissions are required to enable users to connect to the integration node.

About this task

If a user or application wants to connect to an integration node, you must grant them the appropriate permissions. All applications written to the IBM Integration API, and users of the IBM Integration Toolkit, require permissions based on their expected actions. The following table shows the WebSphere MQ permissions that are required in order to connect to the queue manager that is specified on the integration node:

Object Name Permissions
Queue manager The queue manager associated with the integration node; for example, IBQMGR
Connect
Inquire
Notes:
  1. Users and applications can connect to the integration node without this level of authority, but are unable to request actions against the integration node, including viewing properties.

For information about the permissions that are required to enable users to act on IBM Integration Bus resources, see Permissions for acting on integration nodes and resources.
