IAM

This section describes the IAM permission configurations for all ModelArts functions.

IAM Permissions

If no fine-grained authorization policy is configured for a user created by the administrator, the user has all permissions of ModelArts by default. To control user permissions, the administrator needs to add the user to a user group on IAM and configure fine-grained authorization policies for the user group. In this way, the user obtains the permissions defined in the policies before performing operations on cloud service resources.

You can grant users permissions by using roles and policies.

  • Roles are a type of coarse-grained authorization mechanism that defines permissions related to user responsibilities. Only a limited number of service-level roles are available. When using roles to grant permissions, you must also assign other roles on which the permissions depend to take effect. Roles are not ideal for fine-grained authorization and secure access control.

  • Policies are a type of fine-grained authorization mechanism that defines permissions required to perform operations on specific cloud resources under certain conditions. This type of authorization is more flexible and ideal for secure access control. For example, you can grant ECS users permissions that only allow them to manage a certain type of ECS.

ModelArts does not support role-based authorization. It supports only policy-based authorization.

Policy Structure

A policy consists of a version and one or more statements (indicating different actions).

Policy Parameters

The following describes policy parameters. You can create custom policies by specifying the parameters.

Table 1 Policy parameters

Parameter

Description

Value

Version

Policy version

1.1: indicates policy-based access control.

Statement: authorization statement of a policy

Effect

Whether to allow or deny the operations defined in the action

  • Allow: indicates the operation is allowed.

  • Deny: indicates the operation is not allowed.

    Note

    If the policy used to grant user permissions contains both Allow and Deny for the same action, Deny takes precedence.

Action

Operation to be performed on the service

Format: "Service name:Resource type:Action". Wildcard characters (*) are supported, indicating all options.

Example:

modelarts:notebook:list: indicates the permission to view a notebook instance list. modelarts indicates the service name, notebook indicates the resource type, and list indicates the operation.

View all actions of a service in its API Reference.

Condition

Condition for a policy to take effect, including condition keys and operators

Format: "Condition operator:{Condition key:[Value 1,Value 2]}"

If you set multiple conditions, the policy takes effect only when all the conditions are met.

Example:

StringEndWithIfExists":{"g:UserName":["specialCharacter"]}: The statement is valid for users whose names end with specialCharacter.

Resource

Resources on which a policy takes effect

Format: Service name:Region:Account ID:Resource type:Resource path. Wildcard characters (*) are supported, indicating all resources.

Note

ModelArts authorization does not allow you to specify a resource path.

ModelArts Resource Types

During policy-based authorization, the administrator can select the authorization scope based on ModelArts resource types. The following table lists the resource types supported by ModelArts:
