Permissions Policies and Supported Actions

This section describes fine-grained permissions management for your TMS. If your account does not need individual IAM users, then you may skip over this section.

By default, new IAM users do not have permissions assigned. You need to add a user to one or more groups, and attach permissions policies or roles to these groups. Users inherit permissions from the groups to which they are added and can perform specified operations on cloud services based on the permissions.

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. Policies define API-based permissions for operations on specific resources under certain conditions, allowing for more fine-grained, secure access control of cloud resources.

Policy-based authorization is useful if you want to allow or deny the access to an API.

An account has all of the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions. The permissions required for calling an API are determined by the actions supported by the API. Only users who have been granted permissions allowing the actions can call the API successfully. For example, if an IAM user wants to query predefined tags using an API, the user must have been granted permissions that allow the tms:predefineTags:list action.

Supported Actions

Operations supported by a fine-grained policy are specific to APIs. The following are common concepts related to policies:

  • Permissions: Statements in a policy that allow or deny certain operations.
  • APIs: REST APIs that can be called by a user who has been granted specific permissions.
  • Actions: Specific operations that are allowed or denied.
  • Related actions: Actions on which a specific action depends to take effect. When assigning permissions for the action to a user, you also need to assign permissions for the related actions.
  • IAM or enterprise projects: Type of projects for which an action will take effect. Policies that contain actions supporting both IAM and enterprise projects can be used and take effect in both IAM and Enterprise Management. Policies that only contain actions for IAM projects can be used and only take effect for IAM. Administrators can check whether an action supports IAM projects or enterprise projects in the action list. "√" indicates that the action supports the project and "×" indicates that the action does not support the project.
