grafana-ldap-sync-script

A script to get Grafana users, teams and their permissions from an LDAP server and keep it in sync.

Installation

Install all dependencies.

pip install -r requirements.txt

or consider to install the dependencies only for the user which will be executing the script:

$ pip install --user -r requirements.txt

Running the Script

The script requires Python 3 to run!

It can be simply run with:

$ python run.py [-h] --config <path-to-config.yml> --bind <path-to-bind-csv> [--dry-run]

Usage

If you just want to test the script, there is an example.csv predefined. Just enter your grafana credentials in the config.yml. The used LDAP-Server can be found here.

Config

Before starting the script you need to enter your grafana & ldap credentials in the config.yml. You also need to add the path to your .csv file containing the bindings.

Binding

To bind LDAP-groups to grafana-teams and grant these teams access to folders you need to provide a .csv file. Please note that the first row of the csv is recognized as a header-row and is therefore being ignored. The file needs to contain the following information in this exact order:

LDAP-Group: The LDAP group which will be used for mapping.
Grafana-Team Name: The name of the Grafana team which will be created (if not exist) and where the group's users will be added to.
Grafana-Team ID: The ID of the Grafana team (currently not used).
Grafana-Folder Name: The Grafana folder which will be created (if not exist) and where the group's users will have the specified permission to.
Grafana-Folder UUID: The UUID of the Grafana folder.
Grafana-Folder Permission: The users' permission for the specified Grafana folder. (View, Edit, Admin)

Missing folders, teams and users will be created by the script. Teams and users which are not existing in the LDAP mapping will be removed. Note: the user used by the script will not be deleted!

Example CSV

ZBV/LDAP-Gruppe,Grafana-Team-Name,Grafana-Team-ID,Grafana-Folder-Name,Grafana-Folder-UUID,Grafana-Folder-Permissions
mathematicians,mathematicians,0,Math,math_folder,Admin
mathematicians,smart_people,0,Common Dashboards,all_folder,View
scientists,scientists,0,Science,science_folder,Edit
scientists,smart_people,0,Common Dashboards,all_folder,View

Using this CSV mapping will result in the following operations:

The Grafana teams mathematicians, smart_people and scientists will be created.
The Grafana folders Math, Common Dashboards and Science will be created.
All users in the mathematicians LDAP group will be member of the Grafana team mathematicians and smart_people.
All users in the scientists LDAP group will be member of the Grafana team scientists.
All users in the mathematicians LDAP group will get Admin access to the Math folder.
All users in the mathematicians LDAP group will get View access to the Common Dashboards folder.
All users in the scientists LDAP group will get Edit access to the Science folder.
All users in the scientists LDAP group will get View access to the Common Dashboards folder.

Removing Bindings

When a binding is removed in your .csv-file, this binding is also removed by the script. So if there is a team in your grafana instance which is not defined by the current binding the team will be deleted. This also applies to users. This does not apply to folders! Folders need to be deleted manually if not needed anymore!

Bundle Scripts

Using the Makefile, you can bundle all the scripts into a single zip-archive.
