Given this role definition, what permissions does a user have on the sales-data index?

{
  "cluster": ["monitor"],
  "indices": [
    {
      "names": ["sales-data"],
      "privileges": ["read", "write"]
    }
  ]
}

AUser can read and write data in sales-data index

BUser can only read data from sales-data index

CUser can manage cluster settings but not access sales-data

DUser has full admin access to all indexes

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze cluster privileges
Cluster privilege 'monitor' allows monitoring but no write or admin cluster changes.
Step 2: Analyze index privileges
Privileges 'read' and 'write' on 'sales-data' index allow reading and writing data there.
Final Answer:
User can read and write data in sales-data index -> Option A
Quick Check:
Index 'read' + 'write' = read/write access [OK]

Quick Trick: Check index privileges for read/write to know access level [OK]
