Production team member runs a read-only SQL query on the production db in Slack
Production team member runs a read-only SQL query on the production db
As @pcarranza says in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/34311#note_40669782:
@victorwu the first thing we need before we can issue any admin-level command is splitting the security of my slack account from my GitLab user.
What I mean is: my slack user which can issue slash commands to create and list issues is not my admin user (and that's how it should be) so before we can do anything we have to have a way in which we can sudo to an admin user.
Else we can't use any feature that we may ship.
We need some way for production team members to be recognized as authorized users by GitLab.com.
- We need some way to to execute the query on the production db even if GitLab.com is currently down (but presumably the database is still up).
