Embedding the LTS Log Query Page into a User-built System

Application Scenarios

• With this function, you can log in to LTS from a user-built system without entering a password. However, you still need to enter a username and password when logging in to the Huawei Cloud LTS console.
• You can quickly integrate the query and analysis capabilities of LTS in external systems (such as an internal O&M or operations system).
• You do not need to manage multiple Huawei Cloud IAM users, facilitating log data sharing and viewing.

Embedding the LTS Log Query Page into a User-built System

Create an identity broker and an agency in IAM, and then embed the LTS log query page into your system.

1. Log in to the IAM console, for example, as DomainA.
2. Create an IAM user group (for example, GroupC) on the User Groups page and grant the Agent Operator permissions in global service to the user group. Users granted these permissions can only switch to the delegated account to access the authorized services. For details, see Creating a User Group and Assigning Permissions.
3. Create an IAM user (for example, UserB) on the IAM console and add the user to GroupC by referring to Adding Users to a User Group.
   

   Ensure that the IAM user can use LTS through programmatic access or on the console. For details about how to change the IAM user access mode, see Modifying IAM User Information.

4. In the navigation pane, choose Agencies. Then, click Create Agency in the upper right corner.
5. Configure agency parameters.
   1. For example, set Agency Name to iam_for_lts, Agency Type to Account, Delegated Account to DomainA, and Validity Period to Unlimited, and click Next.
   2. Set the minimum authorization scope by selecting the LTS ReadOnlyAccess permissions, which grant users read-only access to query LTS data without the ability to modify LTS settings, and click Next.

   3. Specify the authorization scope, select Region-specific projects, select the corresponding region as required, and click OK.

6. Use tools such as Postman to obtain the X-Subject-LoginToken parameter. (The following figures are for reference only.)
   1. Obtain the X-Subject-Token of UserB using the account and password.

7. Construct a proxy URL based on the X-Subject-LoginToken obtained in 3 to complete password-free login.

   The rules for constructing a proxy URL are as follows:

   https://auth.huaweicloud.com/authui/federation/login?service={target_console_url}&logintoken={logintoken}&idp_login_url={enterprise_system_loginURL}

   Table 1 URL parameters

   Parameter	Description
   {target_console_url}	URLEncode encoding result of the LTS address description. For details, see LTS URL.
   {logintoken}	URLEncode encoding result of X-Subject-LoginToken obtained in 3.
   {enterprise_system_loginURL}	(Optional) URLEncode encoding result of the customer's page address. When the loginToken verification fails, the page is displayed.

   

   • The preceding three parameters must be encoded using URLEncode. Otherwise, password-free login may fail.
   • To perform URLEncode encoding, open a browser, press F12 to enter the developer mode, select console, enter encodeURIComponent("*"), and press Enter to view the returned URLEncode value. * indicates the information to be encoded.

   The value of {target_console_url} is the URLEncode code of the URL of the LTS frontend service. The URL before encoding is as follows. Table 2 describes the parameters.

   https://console-intl.huaweicloud.com/lts/?region={regionId}&cfModuleHide=header_sidebar_floatlayer#/lts/logEventsLeftMenu/events?groupId={groupId}&topicId={topicId}&epsId={epsId}&condition={condition}

   Table 2 Parameters

   Parameter	Description
   {regionId}	Region ID. After logging in to the console, obtain the region ID from the address bar of the browser.
   {groupId}	Log group ID.
   {topicId}	Log stream ID.
   {epsId}	ID of the enterprise project of a log stream. If there is no enterprise project, the value is 0.
   {condition}	Log search criteria, for example, name:a and age:12 and addr:xx. Optional The format of a single keyword is key:value. Separate keywords with and. A keyword cannot contain semicolons (;) or colons (:). A keyword that contains special characters (+, =, ?, #, %, and &) must be converted into a hexadecimal value, that is, an ASCII code starting with % (%2B, %3D, %3F, %23, %25, and %26).

8. After the preceding steps are complete, you can log in to LTS from your user-built system without entering a password.
   Use the following iframe embedding. The value of src is the proxy URL obtained in 7.

   <body>   
       <iframe src="target_url" width="100%" height="96%" id="ltsIframePage"></iframe>       
   </body>

   

   The iframe embedding function requires that browsers allow third-party cookies. The setting procedure varies with browsers. For the Chrome browser, choose Settings > Privacy and security > Third-party cookies > Allow third-party cookies.
