The assignRoleToGroup() GraphQL mutation assigns a role to a group for a given view.

For more information on roles in LogScale, see the Manage Users and Permissions documentation page. To assign roles to a group with the user interface instead of GraphQL, see Assign Roles to Groups.

Syntax

Below is the syntax for the assignRoleToGroup() mutation field:

graphql
assignRoleToGroup(
      input: AssignRoleToGroupInput!
   ): AssignRoleToGroupMutation!

Below is an example of how this mutation field might be used:
