How to create an login account with read-only on TrueNAS WebGui Console

[Huaming]

Hi, I've installed a TrueNAS image (latest version) onto HP DL380G9 server. I can access this console via web by 'root'. Right now, I'd like to create a 'read only' account which will be used by our internal monitoring system (Nagios). I tried it into 'users and groups', but with the negative result. May I seek some advices here.

Thank
HM

There is only a single user able to log into the GUI, which is "root". It is a full access administrative user. There is no support for alternative users.

nagios could use the rest api to get its information...

CORE API Reference

Describes how to access the API documentation in TrueNAS CORE.

www.truenas.com

there you can control what that endpoint can read...

Edit: I thought there were Options... but nagios should be able to use the SNMP service since that what its made for..
