Unauthorized not authorized on admin to execute command { getLog: "global" }

[Vishesh Singhal]

Hi,

I am connecting to Mongo Node with a user having roles: ["userAdminAnyDatabase"] assigned to it.

When I am tring to run command :   db.adminCommand({getLog: "*"})

it says: 

{

        "ok" : 0,

        "errmsg" : "not authorized on admin to execute command { getLog: \"*\" }",

        "code" : 13

}

Please help

Regards,

Vishesh

Hi Vishesh,

The userAdminAnyDatabase role does not grant permission to run getLog; that requires the clusterMonitor or clusterAdmin role:
