Kafbat UI does not show MSK cluster info

[hongbo-miao]

I am using MSK 3.7.x KRaft mode. Also, I am also having some issues seeing the cluster in the Kafbat UI.

I can confirm same IAM role permission (granted all readonly permissions for now) works well for AKHQ and Redpanda Console.

Here is my config

yamlApplicationConfig:
  kafka:
    clusters:
      - name: yaml
        bootstrapServers: b-1.xxx.xx.c11.kafka.us-west-2.amazonaws.com:9098,b-2.xxx.xx.c11.kafka.us-west-2.amazonaws.com:9098,b-3.xxx.xx.c11.kafka.us-west-2.amazonaws.com:9098
        properties:
          security.protocol: SASL_SSL
          sasl.mechanism: AWS_MSK_IAM
          sasl.jaas.config: software.amazon.msk.auth.iam.IAMLoginModule required;
          sasl.client.callback.handler.class: software.amazon.msk.auth.iam.IAMClientCallbackHandler
  auth:
    type: disabled
  management:
    health:
      ldap:
        enabled: false
serviceAccount:
  create: true
  annotations:
    eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: arn:aws:iam::xxxxxxxx4xxx:role/KafbatUIRole-hm-kafbat-ui

Can you verify you have all the permissions required assigned to the policy? Docs reference here

[hongbo-miao]

Thanks @Haarolean I confirmed I have all read-only access granted at here:

resource "aws_iam_role_policy" "hm_kafbat_ui_iam_role_policy" {
  name = "${local.aws_iam_role_name_prefix}Policy-${var.kafbat_ui_service_account_name}"
  role = aws_iam_role.hm_kafbat_ui_iam_role.name
  policy = jsonencode({
    Version = "2012-10-17"
    Statement = [
      {
        Effect = "Allow"
        Action = [
          "kafka-cluster:Connect",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeCluster",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeClusterDynamicConfiguration",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeGroup",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeTopic",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeTopicDynamicConfiguration",
          "kafka-cluster:DescribeTransactionalId",
          "kafka-cluster:ReadData"
        ]
        Resource = [
          "*"
        ]
      }
    ]
  })
}

Sorry, it seems the issue is with authentication, rather than authorization. Make sure your auth details are correct: https://ui.docs.kafbat.io/configuration/authentication/aws-iam

[hongbo-miao]

Hi @Haarolean Here is my config.

I redacted the broker URLs in bootstrapServers, in real, I have them correctly set up.

I noticed in the doc you provided it is sasl.jaas.config: software.amazon.msk.auth.iam.IAMLoginModule required awsProfileName="<PROFILE_NAME>";.

I am using sasl.jaas.config: software.amazon.msk.auth.iam.IAMLoginModule required;
Because I provided service role eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: arn:aws:iam::272394222652:role/KafbatUIRole-hm-kafbat-ui.

Is it okay?
