Docs Cloud Reference rpk Commands rpk security rpk security acl rpk security acl list rpk security acl list List ACLs. See the rpk security acl help text for a full write up on ACLs. List flags work in a similar multiplying effect as creating ACLs, but list is more advanced: listing works on a filter basis. Any unspecified flag defaults to matching everything (all operations, or all allowed principals, etc). As mentioned, not specifying flags matches everything. If no resources are specified, all resources are matched. If no operations are specified, all operations are matched. You can also opt in to matching everything with "any": --operation any matches any operation. The --resource-pattern-type, defaulting to "any", configures how to filter resource names: "any" returns exact name matches of either prefixed or literal pattern type "match" returns wildcard matches, prefix patterns that match your input, and literal matches "prefix" returns prefix patterns that match your input (prefix "fo" matches "foo") "literal" returns exact name matches Usage rpk security acl list [flags] Aliases list, ls, describe Flags Value Type Description --allow-host strings Allowed host ACLs to match (repeatable). --allow-principal strings Allowed principal ACLs to match (repeatable). --allow-role strings Allowed role for ACLs to match (repeatable). --cluster - Whether to match ACLs to the cluster. --deny-host strings Denied host ACLs to match (repeatable). --deny-principal strings Denied principal ACLs to match (repeatable). --deny-role strings Denied role for ACLs to match (repeatable). --format string Output format.
