Permissions Management
If you need to assign different permissions to employees in your enterprise to access your Cloud Phone resources, IAM is a good choice for fine-grained permissions management. IAM provides identity authentication, permissions management, and access control, helping you secure access to your HUAWEI CLOUD resources.
With IAM, you can use your HUAWEI CLOUD account to create IAM users for your employees, and grant permissions to the users to control their access to specific resource types. For example, some software developers in your enterprise need to view Cloud Phone resources but should not be allowed to perform any other high-risk operations, such as restarting Cloud Phone instances. In this scenario, you can create IAM users for the software developers and grant them only the permissions required for viewing Cloud Phone resources.
If your HUAWEI CLOUD account does not need individual IAM users for permissions management, skip this section.
IAM free of charge. You pay only for cloud resources you purchase or use. For more information about IAM, see IAM Service Overview.
Cloud Phone Permissions
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.
Cloud Phone is a project-level service deployed in specific physical regions. To assign Cloud Phone permissions to a user group, specify the scope as region-specific projects and select projects for the permissions to take effect. If All projects is selected, the permissions will take effect for the user group in all region-specific projects. When accessing Cloud Phone, the users need to switch to a region where they have been authorized to use this service.
