Creating a User and Granting Permissions¶
This chapter describes how to use Identity and Access Management (IAM) for fine-grained permissions control for your AOM resources. With IAM, you can:
Create IAM users for employees based on the organizational structure of your enterprise. Each IAM user has their own security credentials, providing access to AOM resources.
Grant only the permissions required for users to perform a task.
Entrust a cloud account or service to perform professional and efficient O&M on your AOM resources.
If your account does not need individual IAM users, then you may skip over this section.
This section describes the procedure for granting permissions (see Figure 1).
Prerequisites¶
Learn about the permissions (see AOM Permissions) supported by AOM and choose policies or roles according to your requirements. For the permissions of other services, see Permission Description.
Process¶
Figure 1 Process for granting AOM permissions¶
Create a user group and assign permissions.
Create a user group on the IAM console, and assign the AOM ReadOnlyAccess policy to the group.
Create a user on the IAM console and add the user to the group created in 1.
Log in and verify permissions.
Log in to the AOM console as the created user, and verify that it only has read permissions for AOM.
