Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform

Viewing local roles and bindings

You can view local role bindings by using the oc CLI to identify the users, groups, and service accounts that have roles within the current project or another project.

You can use the oc CLI to view local roles and bindings by using the oc describe command.

Prerequisites

Install the oc CLI.
Obtain permission to view the local roles and bindings:
- Users with the cluster-admin default cluster role bound cluster-wide can perform any action on any resource, including viewing local roles and bindings.
- Users with the admin default cluster role bound locally can view and manage roles and bindings in that project.

Procedure

To view the current set of local role bindings, which show the users and groups that are bound to various roles for the current project:
```
$ oc describe rolebinding.rbac
```

To view the local role bindings for a different project, add the -n flag to the command:

$ oc describe rolebinding.rbac -n joe-project
