[[templating-role-query]]
==== Templating a role query
When you create a role, you can specify a query that defines the
<<document-level-security,document level security permissions>>. You can
optionally use Mustache templates in the role query to insert the username of the
current authenticated user into the role. Like other places in {es} that support
templating or scripting, you can specify inline, stored, or file-based templates
and define custom parameters. You access the details for the current
authenticated user through the `_user` parameter.
For example, the following role query uses a template to insert the username
of the current authenticated user:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
POST /_xpack/security/role/example1
{
"indices" : [
{
"names" : [ "my_index" ],
"privileges" : [ "read" ],
"query" : {
"template" : {
"source" : {
"term" : { "acl.username" : "{{_user.username}}" }
}
}
}
}
]
}
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
You can access the following information through the `_user` variable:
[options="header"]
|======
| Property | Description
| `_user.username` | The username of the current authenticated user.
| `_user.full_name` | If specified, the full name of the current authenticated user.
| `_user.email` | If specified, the email of the current authenticated user.
| `_user.roles` | If associated, a list of the role names of the current authenticated user.
| `_user.metadata` | If specified, a hash holding custom metadata of the current authenticated user.
|======
You can also access custom user metadata. For example, if you maintain a
`group_id` in your user metadata, you can apply document level security
based on the `group.id` field in your documents:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
POST /_xpack/security/role/example2
{
"indices" : [
{
"names" : [ "my_index" ],
"privileges" : [ "read" ],
"query" : {
"template" : {
"source" : {
"term" : { "group.id" : "{{_user.metadata.group_id}}" }
}
}
}
}
]
}
