<a name="aurora-postgresql-user-management"></a>

When you connect a database data source to Amazon Q Business, Amazon Q Business crawls user and group information from a column in the source table. You specify this column in the console or using the `configuration` parameter as part of the `CreateDataSource` operation.

Activating ACL crawling allows the system to filter chat responses based on your end users' document access levels.

Prerequisites:
+ The group ACL column in the database should be a string containing a semicolon delimited list of groups.
+  The user ACL column in the database should be a string containing a semicolon delimited list of users.

A database data source has the following limitation:
+ You can only specify an allow list for a database data source. You can't specify a deny list.
