Managing tenants

Tenants, like namespaces, can be managed using the admin API. There are currently two configurable aspects of tenants:

• Admin roles
• Allowed clusters

Tenant resources

List

pulsar-admin

You can list all of the tenants associated with an instance using the list subcommand:

$ pulsar-admin tenants list

That will return a simple list, like this:

my-tenant-1
my-tenant-2

Create

pulsar-admin

You can create a new tenant using the create subcommand:

$ pulsar-admin tenants create my-tenant

When creating a tenant, you can assign admin roles using the -r/--admin-roles flag. You can specify multiple roles as a comma-separated list. Here are some examples:

$ pulsar-admin tenants create my-tenant \
  --admin-roles role1,role2,role3

$ pulsar-admin tenants create my-tenant \
  -r role1

Get configuration

pulsar-admin

You can see a tenant’s configuration as a JSON object using the get subcommand and specifying the name of the tenant:

$ pulsar-admin tenants get my-tenant
{
  "adminRoles": [
    "admin1",
    "admin2"
  ],
  "allowedClusters": [
    "cl1",
    "cl2"
  ]
}

Delete

pulsar-adnin

You can delete a tenant using the delete subcommand and specifying the tenant name:

$ pulsar-admin tenants delete my-tenant

Updating

pulsar-admin

You can update a tenant’s configuration using the update subcommand
