Required permissions for Raw Log Search with a custom GCP role

Hello everyone,

We are trying to build a custom role in Google SecOps so that a set of users can only:

  • View native dashboards
  • Run UDM searches and view the resulting events
  • Run Raw Log searches and view the resulting events

We have successfully enabled access to native dashboards and UDM search results, but we cannot get Raw Log Search to work with this custom role.

When attempting a raw search, the request returns the following error:

[{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Request contains an invalid argument.","status":"INVALID_ARGUMENT"}}]

If we execute the same raw search using a user with broader permissions it works correctly. Also, It does not report any missing permissions.

Below is the full list of permissions currently included in the custom role:

  • chronicle.dashboardCharts.get
  • chronicle.dashboardQueries.execute
  • chronicle.dataAccessScopes.list
  • chronicle.entities.get
  • chronicle.entities.searchEntities
  • chronicle.entities.summarizeFromQuery
  • chronicle.events.batchGet
  • chronicle.events.get
  • chronicle.events.queryProductSourceStats
  • chronicle.events.searchRawLogs
  • chronicle.events.udmSearch
  • chronicle.events.validateQuery
  • chronicle.instances.get
  • chronicle.legacies.legacyFetchUdmSearchView
  • chronicle.legacies.legacyFindRawLogs
  • chronicle.legacies.legacyFindUdmEvents
  • chronicle.legacies.legacySearchCustomerStats
  • chronicle.legacies.legacySearchIngestionStats
  • chronicle.legacies.legacySearchRawLogs
  • chronicle.nativeDashboards.get
  • chronicle.nativeDashboards.list
  • chronicle.operations.list
  • chronicle.operations.streamSearch
  • chronicle.preferenceSets.get
  • chronicle.preferenceSets.update
  • chronicle.searchQueries.list

Has anyone encountered this error before? Which additional permissions are required for Raw Log Search?

Thanks!!

Go into Chronicle Permissions - Legacy Resources and a ctrl-F search for RawLogs to find the four IAM permissions and method names needed here.
