Document level security: placeholders for USERNAME and ROLE in the role's query

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
8

I did my "homework", and it turned out, that this topic is a duplicate of X-Pack Security : Role definition query template with 'terms'

Anyway, I'm going to summarize my "finding" here again:

User:

{
	"template": {
		"inline": {
			"match": {
				"acl_allow": "{{_user.username}}"
			}
		}
	}
}

Roles:

{
	"template": {
		"inline": "{\"terms\":{\"acl_allow\": {{#toJson}}_user.roles{{/toJson}}}}"
	}
}

Thank you for your help again!
