I am following #ACL rules for Sentinel and Replicas in https://redis.io/docs/management/security/acl/ but getting below exception while running the command as-is.

Screenshot of the error Redis [QUESTION] Issues with ACL rules for Sentinel

In which use-cases will acl on sentinel will be helpful ?

Looking for a prompt response on this. Thanks in advance.

Hello @geekthread

This is a duplicate of https://groups.google.com/g/redis-db/c/4QQ_CgPr9b4/m/pLcDuWRZCAAJ :)

The error suggests that you're configuring the ACL of the Sentinel instance (as MULTI is a Redis command, not Sentinels).

The use case for Sentinel's ACL is the same as any ACL - control of access to the resource. For example, you may want the application to be able to discover the active Redis masters but block it from performing configuration changes. This, and much more, can be accomplished with Sentinel's ACLs.
