# Ingestion Monitoring dashboard permissions

Access to the Data Ingestion Dashboard, which provides an overview of data ingestion by product and vendor:

* Daily quota consumption: Tracking used data limits against the organization's allowance.
* Data ingestion rates: Visualizing the velocity of incoming data.
* Source Health: Ensuring that various data sources and products are communicating correctly with Cortex XSIAM.

| Permission | Description                                       | Roles Example                           |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| None       | No access to the Data Ingestion Dashboard.        |                                         |
| View       | Read-only access to the Data Ingestion Dashboard. | Most roles should have view permission. |

### Required and recommended permissions

To effectively utilize the ingestion monitoring tools, consider these dependencies:

| Permission   | Permission Level | Reason                                                                 |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xsiam/reference-and-developer-docs/role-based-access-control/dashboards-and-reports-permissions/ingestion-monitoring-dashboard-permissions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
