Creating a User Group and Assigning Permissions

Procedure

1. Choose Management & Deployment > Identity and Access Management.
2. In the navigation pane, choose User Groups.
3. On the User Groups page, click Create User Group.
4. Enter a user group name.
5. (Optional) Enter a description for the user group.
   

   To enable users to directly view their permissions, set a description for the user group. For example, if you assign the Security Administrator role to a user group, you can set any description in the Description text box. For example: Security Administrator: Permissions for creating, deleting, and modifying users as well as granting permissions to users. For details about the permissions for all cloud services, see Permissions

6. Click OK.

   The user group is displayed in the user group list.

7. In the row containing the user group, click Manage Permissions.
8. On the Permissions tab page, click Assign Permissions above the permission list.
9. Specify the authorization scope. If you select Region-specific projects, select one or more projects in the drop-down list.
   • Global service project: Services deployed without specifying physical regions are called global services, such as Object Storage Service (OBS), and Tag Management Service (TMS). Permissions for these services must be assigned in the global service project.
   • Region-specific projects: Services deployed in specific regions are called project-level services. Permissions for these services need to be assigned in region-specific projects and take effect only for the corresponding regions. If you want the permissions to take effect for all regions, grant them in all these regions.

10. Select policies and click OK.
