SigNoz

Connect SigNoz as an access source using a service account API key

View as Markdown

Probo reads your SigNoz organization’s members through the SigNoz API so you can review who has access.

  • Probo organization administrator access
  • A SigNoz user holding the SigNoz-Admin (signoz-admin) role. SigNoz states the requirement as a role with the transactions needed to create a service account, attach a role to it and create its API key. signoz-admin is the only managed role that carries them
  • A service account assigned the SigNoz-Admin (signoz-admin) role, so its key can list the organization’s members. The endpoint Probo reads is admin only, and SigNoz’s fine-grained access control does not cover the user resource yet, so no narrower role can read members
  • The Base URL of your SigNoz instance, which the Connect dialog asks for alongside the key. It is the http or https address you use to reach SigNoz: on SigNoz Cloud that is your instance URL (for example https://your-instance.signoz.cloud), and on a self-hosted deployment it is your own server address. Include the base path when SigNoz is served under one, for example https://example.com/signoz. Leave off any query string or fragment, and make sure the instance is reachable from the public internet
Probo field SigNoz field Notes
Name displayName
Email email A user with no email address is skipped
Role role ADMIN and signoz-admin map to Admin, EDITOR and signoz-editor to Editor, VIEWER and signoz-viewer to Viewer. A custom role is kept verbatim, and the match is exact, so a role that merely contains “admin” is not promoted
Admin isRoot, role Flagged as an administrator when isRoot is true, or when role resolves to Admin
Status status active is listed as active, pending_invite and deleted as inactive. Any other value leaves the status unknown
MFA Not supported
Last login Not supported
External ID id Stable identifier used to track the account across reviews
Created at createdAt When the user was created in the organization

SigNoz lists pending invitations in the same Members table as active users, so someone who was invited but has not accepted still appears in the campaign, marked inactive.

  1. In SigNoz, signed in with the SigNoz-Admin role, open Settings and go to Service Accounts.
  2. Click New Service Account, enter a name (lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens only, e.g. probo-access-review), and click Create.
  3. Open the service account. In the Overview tab, use the Roles dropdown to assign the SigNoz-Admin role, then click Save.
  4. Open the Keys tab, click Add Key, name the key (e.g. Probo Access Review), leave the expiration date empty so the key stays valid until it is revoked, and click Create. Copy the key and store it securely. SigNoz shows it only once.
  1. In Probo, go to Access Reviews > Sources > Add Source.
  2. Find SigNoz, click API Key, paste the key, enter your Base URL (the address of the instance the key was created on), and click Connect.

Probo names the source after your SigNoz organization and pulls its members into your campaigns.

  • Key rejected. Confirm it is a service account API key from Settings > Service Accounts rather than an ingestion key from Settings > Ingestion Settings, that it has not expired or been revoked, and that the Base URL points at the instance the key was created on.
  • No members appear. Listing the organization’s members requires the SigNoz-Admin role. Open the service account’s Overview tab, check that the role is assigned, then sync the source again.
  • Key creation is unavailable. By default only the signoz-admin role can create service accounts and their keys. Ask a SigNoz admin to create the key. On SigNoz Cloud and Self-Hosted Enterprise an admin can instead grant a custom role scoped to that one service account. That needs an active SigNoz license and is not available on Self-Hosted Community.
  • Connect fails on a self-hosted instance. Probo calls the Base URL from its own infrastructure, so it cannot connect to a SigNoz deployment that is only reachable on a private network or on localhost.
