ACL users

The ACL users tool lists the server’s users and shows what each may do: its flags, password count, commands, keys, channels and selectors. You create and change users by writing ACL rules, and the panel shows the exact command before it runs.

To sign in as an ACL user, set the User in the connection profile; see Connecting.

View users

Open Tools › ACL users under the connection. The toolbar shows who you are signed in as. Select a user in the list to see:

Field	Shows
Flags	Such as on or off.
Passwords	How many passwords the user has (stored as SHA-256 hashes).
Commands	The commands and categories the user may run.
Keys	The key patterns the user may access.
Channels	The Pub/Sub channels the user may use.
Selectors	Extra rule sets, when the user has any.

Create or change a user

1. Choose New user, or select an existing user to change it.
2. Enter the User name.
3. Write the rules, for example on >secret ~cart:* +@read -@dangerous. Rules that start with reset replace every rule the user had.
4. Check the command under Runs exactly:.
5. Choose Create user or Apply changes, then Apply in the confirmation.

Delete user deletes the selected user after a confirmation.

Access control

Creating, changing and deleting ACL users always ask before they run, on every connection. A read-only connection cannot change them.
