Add your PE credentials to Comply

To allow Comply to communicate with PE, you must add your PE credentials to Comply.

Before you begin

Adding your PE credentials authenticates Comply with Role Based Access Control (RBAC). Your PE account requires the following permissions:


Type	Action	Instance
Console	View	-
Job Orchestrator	Start, stop and view jobs	-
Node Groups	View	All
Nodes	View node data from PuppetDB	-
Tasks	Run Tasks	Task: `comply::backup_assessor` Permitted on: All nodes
Tasks	Run Tasks	Task: `comply::ciscat_scan` Permitted on: All nodes
User Roles	View	All
User Roles	Create	All

For more information on permissions, see User permissions and user roles.

In Comply — located at https://<COMPLY-HOSTNAME>/ — click Settings.
Click Puppet Enterprise instance.
Enter your PE hostname, username, and password.
Click Submit.

Tip: You can refresh the PE node and fact information by clicking Refresh data.
