Add support for custom roles, or create a role with the customer actions

For client: In one of the IAM Access Groups in our IBM Cloud account we want to enable read-only access to the watsonx.orchestrate instance by enabling the following components:

  • watsonx-orchestrate.assistant.read

  • watsonx-orchestrate.skill.read

  • watsonx-orchestrate.logs.read

Since these were not available in "WO User" pre-existing Service Role, we created a Custom Role to include the above and assigned it to the Access Group. But, still the user is unable to open the Assistant and read the logs.

From Support: watsonx-orchestrate.assistant.read isn't supported as part of a custom role. In order to have this work as you described by the cliet we would need to put in an enhancement request to create to create a new role with the actions they've requested.

wxO ( similar to wxA ) only recognizes the 3 bundles so if someone creates a custom role, it's compared against the actions mapped to the 3 roles. Currently, a user cannot pick and choose actions from each individual Service Access type you have to choose one of the bundles.
